Full-Scope Origination Infrastructure

Every engagement includes the complete infrastructure required to build and maintain a proprietary sourcing channel aligned with your acquisition mandate.

Mandate Alignment & Market Mapping

We translate your acquisition criteria into a structured sourcing framework — identifying and prioritizing high-fit targets across your defined sectors and geographies.

  • Custom target universe built to your mandate
  • Sector and geography prioritization
  • Fragmentation analysis and scoring
  • Ongoing list refinement as criteria evolve

Founder Origination & Direct Outreach

Direct outreach and relationship development with business owners — initiating conversations before businesses enter a formal sale process or engage an intermediary.

  • Multi-channel owner outreach campaigns
  • Email and LinkedIn outreach sequences
  • Mandate-aligned messaging and positioning
  • Consistent follow-up and relationship nurture

Qualification & Readiness Screening

Each opportunity is evaluated for strategic fit, ownership dynamics, timing, and seller motivation — so your team only engages with owners worth their time.

  • Preliminary financial and business intake
  • Ownership motivation and timeline assessment
  • Fit-scoring against your mandate criteria
  • Warm handoff to your deal team

Pipeline Management & Reporting

Structured reporting provides full visibility into sourcing activity, engagement status, and opportunity progression across your target market.

  • Monthly pipeline review and activity report
  • Engagement status by target and stage
  • Long-term cultivation tracking
  • Mandate performance benchmarking

Ongoing Origination Infrastructure

Aligned Profit operates as a continuous sourcing function — maintaining active engagement across your target market rather than delivering a one-time list of names.

  • Always-on outreach across your target sectors
  • Cultivation of owners not yet ready to sell
  • Re-engagement of prior contacts at key intervals
  • Pipeline compounds in value over time

Dedicated Origination Team

Our team operates as a dedicated origination layer — running outreach, engaging owners, and building pipeline so your team can focus on closing transactions.

  • Outreach run under the Aligned Profit / Parallel Equity brand
  • Mandate-specific messaging built for your thesis
  • Qualified sellers handed off directly to your deal team
  • You stay focused on diligence, terms, and close
Professional team
"Pipeline that compounds in value over time — not a one-time delivery of names."

The 14-Day Setup & Launch Window

From your mandate alignment call to live outreach in two weeks. Your origination engine is fully operational within fourteen days, so qualified owner conversations begin immediately.

Day 1–2
1
Mandate Alignment Call & Brief
A structured kickoff session where we align on your acquisition criteria, sector focus, target geographies, deal size parameters, and what a qualified opportunity looks like for your firm. You leave with the campaign brief locked and target universe defined.
Day 3–7
2
Target List Build
We build your proprietary target list against your mandate — verified owner contacts, financial screens, geographic and sector filters applied. You review and approve before anything goes live.
Day 7–12
3
Sequence Configured & Tested
Outreach sequences, dialing strategy, and qualification criteria are configured, deliverability-tested, and loaded. Every message is positioned as Aligned Profit representing a qualified buy-side mandate — clear, compliant, and direct.
Day 14
4
Outreach Live + Cultivation Active
Campaigns go live. First owner conversations begin immediately. Cultivation flows engage every "not yet" owner indefinitely — so the pipeline compounds from day one instead of resetting each month.
Month 2+
Continuous Origination & Reporting
Monthly pipeline reviews, consistent outreach across your target market, and active cultivation of owners not yet ready to sell. Your sourcing engine compounds in value as relationships deepen and new targets enter at the top of the funnel.

We Are Not
  • A registered broker-dealer or licensed securities firm
  • A sell-side or buy-side advisor executing transactions on your behalf

The 90-Day Promise
10 Qualified Acquisition Opportunities OR 1 Executed LOI in 90 Days — Or We Work Free Until You Hit It.

If you don't have at least 10 qualified acquisition opportunities OR 1 executed letter of intent in your first 90 days, we continue providing monthly services at no additional maintenance fee until you reach that threshold.

The 12-Month Buy Box Guarantee
If We Can't Find a Deal That Fits Your Buy Box in 12 Months — Full Refund of All Maintenance Fees.

If, during your first 12 months, Aligned Profit fails to deliver at least one acquisition opportunity that materially fits your documented buy box criteria (80%+ match on industry, geography, revenue range, and deal size), we refund every dollar of maintenance fees you've paid. That's how confident we are in our sourcing engine.

Important — Seller-Reported Financials: All revenue, EBITDA, margin, and financial figures included in Aligned Profit deliverables are self-reported by the business owner. Aligned Profit does not audit, verify, or independently confirm seller-reported financial data. It is the client's responsibility to diligence and verify all figures before acting on them.

Don't Take Our Word for It

We started from nothing, and their marketing connected us to the right people to grow our business. I had 3 to 4 appointments a week to talk to targeted people. They were able to pivot based on real feedback and adjustments to maximize response. I recommend Aligned Profit for any company that wants to reach its clients and increase revenue.

Buyer Client
Acquisition Searcher

My experience with you guys has been fantastic. I got a spreadsheet the other day with a big, lengthy list — I wanted to make sure that none of them fell through the cracks, which I suppose speaks to the number that you've been able to generate. We're super, super happy with it. All of them really matter to the success and expansion of our business.
