The expensive way to learn

Waiting until you can transact.

The first serious deal should not be the first deal you have studied.

Most aspiring buyers stay outside the market while they line up capital, refine a thesis, and wait for the perfect moment. Then a live opportunity arrives and every decision is new at once.

SMB Scout lets you build those reps earlier. Watch opportunities move. Learn which questions matter. Add access only when it earns its keep.

Where the product lives

Useful enough to open. Simple enough to keep up with.

SMB Scout runs in WhatsApp because that is where members already are. Deal flow is posted by the team, not buried in another software dashboard.

  • Announcements for updates, events, and the weekly teaser.
  • Open chat for moderated member discussion.
  • Resources with read-only guides, templates, and checklists.
  • Deal flow for Pro and Coaching members.

See the full program
  1. 01

    Month 1

    Buy box and financing

    Write a usable acquisition thesis, map the financing path, and make the first lender introduction.

  2. 02

    Months 2–4

    Pipeline and deal judgment

    Review deals together, learn the calls worth taking, and build broker and seller fluency.

  3. 03

    Months 5–6

    Get to an LOI

    Set a valuation range, frame the basic structure, and assemble the team needed to submit confidently.

The promise: you finish ready to judge a deal and submit an LOI. We do not promise that you will close an acquisition.

A clear line

SMB Scout is for the part before you can transact.

Once you have capital, a team, and the ability to close, you may need an outsourced M&A function instead. That is Dealport AI.

Straight answers

What you are buying. And what you are not.

01

No success fees

Every SMB Scout tier is flat-priced. Success fees belong to outbound work where Dealport does the sourcing.

02

No manufactured exclusivity

Broker NDA rules stay in force. Nothing a retained client is evaluating enters the SMB Scout deal feed.

03

No advice hidden inside Pro

Pro members pay for information. Deal reviews and individual answers belong to Coaching.

04

No done-for-you execution in Coaching

We help you think. We do not build models, draft LOIs, run diligence, or conduct outreach.

Start where you are

Your first look inside costs nothing.
