Direct outreach (best deals)

Many of the best businesses for sale are never listed. Identify SaaS in your target niche, then email founders directly.

Indie Hackers and Twitter

Solo founders often announce burnout or pivot publicly. These are pre-marketplace opportunities.

SaaS aggregators

Companies like SureSwift Capital sometimes spin off non-strategic acquisitions.

Brokers

Reach out to top SaaS brokers and tell them what you're looking for. They send buy-side opportunities to qualified buyers before public listing.

Build relationships before you need them

The best deals come to people known to be active buyers. Make your interest public, build a small profile.
