Value-added resellers and IT hardware providers: procurement, configuration and deployment of computing, networking and AV infrastructure with vendor authorizations and services attach.
Every company in this vertical is read against the same framework: 20 standard search-funder signals plus 10 signals authored specifically for IT hardware resellers & VARs. Website-visible facts only, each backed by evidence — never revenue guesses, owner profiling or "ready to sell" flags.
Proprietary deal flow starts here: a company already owned by PE, a group, or a franchisor is not an off-market target.
An identifiable owner-operator is the counterparty a searcher's letter is addressed to.
Generational businesses are the classic succession-driven seller profile searchers are taught to look for.
Captured as stated evidence only: the context a searcher weighs when prioritizing outreach, with no 'ready to sell' guessing.
Decades of operation mean survived cycles, embedded relationships, and an owner with a long tenure behind them.
Tells the searcher whether they inherit a management layer or step into every role on day one.
Functional managers under an owner signal a business that can run through a transition.
The only honest size proxies a website offers; searchers use them to bracket whether a target is SBA-sized.
Defines the geography thesis fit and whether there is a multi-branch platform or a single-site operation.
Recurring revenue is the first line of nearly every searcher's investment criteria.
Customer concentration is a top diligence killer; breadth visible on the site de-risks the thesis early.
Sticky customers are what a new owner-operator actually buys.
Diversified end markets soften cyclicality — a standard line in searcher investment criteria.
Business customers negotiate as equals; the commercial side is where our screening (and most search theses) lives.
Service-led models carry the labor moats and relationship revenue most searchers underwrite.
Licensing is a real barrier to entry: it keeps fragmentation high and protects margins after close.
In trades and services the workforce is the asset; visible bench depth de-risks the labor question.
Signals capex intensity and collateral: both sides of the SBA-financing conversation.
Active hiring reads as demand; the roles listed reveal how the business actually runs.
Low digital maturity with strong fundamentals is the classic operate-and-improve upside a searcher pitches investors.
