💼 Lead Gen Tactics That Actually Work

Let’s break down a few high-impact ways to find business owners who are ready to sell:

✅ Use Facebook Groups Strategically

Local Facebook groups are full of small business owners. You can find leads by:

• Engaging in posts about small business struggles

• Sharing helpful content and advice

• Posting insights about selling businesses (without being spammy)

Tip: Focus on value first, then connect via DM.

✅ Walk into Local Businesses (Letter of Intent in Hand)

Sometimes, old-school still works best. You can literally walk into small shops, cafes, or salons and say:

“Hi, I specialize in helping business owners sell when the time is right. Here’s a Letter of Intent—no pressure, just a way to start the conversation if you’re ever curious.”

We provide this exact Letter of Intent template inside our broker resources.
You never know who’s secretly thinking about selling.

✅ Network with Realtors & CPAs

Many professionals know business owners who want to sell—but don’t know who to send them to.

Offer referral commissions to:

• Real estate agents

• Accountants

• Financial planners

We give you everything you need to start these partnerships inside the BizBroker+ broker portal.

✅ Follow Up Like a Pro

Leads are worthless without consistent follow-up.

That’s why we give our brokers:

• CRM access

• Automated email templates

• Follow-up sequences

This keeps you top of mind—without chasing people down manually.

📈 Leads = Listings = Closings

The biggest myth about business brokering? That you need a big name or big team to get listings.

Not true.

All you need is:

• A smart strategy

• Consistent action

• The right training and resources

We’ve helped dozens of first-time brokers go from zero to their first commission check in weeks—not months.

And we’re just getting started.
