Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

WHAT THIS IS A short, well-paid advisory engagement for a senior M&A advisor or internet-business broker. The memo is already written, sourced, and structured. I need your expert eyes, edits at your discretion, and your signature on your letterhead. Think of it as a paid peer review, not a research project. TIME COMMITMENT - 15-30 minutes of review - Fixed-price: $200 (open to higher for the right credentials) - Turnaround: 3 to 5 business days, flexible to your schedule WHAT YOU'LL BE REVIEWING A short professional opinion memo (about 1 to 1.5 pages) on a simple question: how often does a single founder build and sell multiple internet businesses to independent third-party acquirers? Most founders never reach even one arms-length exit. The memo lays out why a repeated pattern of acquired companies is uncommon, and asks you to confirm that against the deal population you evaluate every day. The comparative basis is your own deal flow (the number of founders, companies, or transactions you have assessed over your career). All facts are provided and verifiable. You are confirming the rarity, not researching it. WHY THIS IS QUICK The hard part is done. The memo is drafted to professional standards and follows a standard comparative-rarity opinion. Most reviewers spend under an hour: read it, adjust anything you would phrase differently, sign. If you do not agree with the assessment, you are free to say so or to decline. You are attesting to your own professional opinion, full stop, the same kind advisors routinely provide in deal memos, references, and valuations. WHO I'M LOOKING FOR (one of): - Senior M&A advisor or business broker for internet businesses (SaaS, software, content, e-commerce, digital media) - Buy-side acquirer or principal (micro-PE, holdco, search fund) who regularly evaluates internet-business deals - Investment banker focused on lower-middle-market or SMB internet M&A - 5+ years and a high volume of deals evaluated or closed - A title that establishes authority (Managing Director, Partner, Principal, Head of Brokerage) - No prior working relationship with the founder (independence matters for this kind of opinion) DELIVERABLES - Reviewed and edited memo (edits at your discretion) - Signed PDF on your letterhead HOW TO APPLY To confirm fit: your title and firm, roughly how many internet-business deals or founders you have personally evaluated or closed, and a verifiable link (LinkedIn or firm page). I will share the memo with the selected advisor immediately after award. Easy money for the right person.
