A dedicated, mandate-driven origination engine that surfaces proprietary deal flow before businesses ever reach a formal sale process — built for PE firms, independent sponsors, and searchers.
Every engagement includes the complete infrastructure required to build and maintain a proprietary sourcing channel aligned with your acquisition mandate.
We translate your acquisition criteria into a structured sourcing framework — identifying and prioritizing high-fit targets across your defined sectors and geographies.
Direct outreach and relationship development with business owners — initiating conversations before businesses enter a formal sale process or engage an intermediary.
Each opportunity is evaluated for strategic fit, ownership dynamics, timing, and transaction readiness — so your team only engages with owners worth your time.
Structured reporting provides full visibility into sourcing activity, engagement status, and opportunity progression across your target market.
Aligned Profit operates as a continuous sourcing function — maintaining active engagement across your target market rather than delivering a one-time list of names.
Our team operates as an extension of your firm — running outreach, engaging owners, and building pipeline so your team can focus on closing transactions.
From your mandate alignment call to first owner conversations — we move fast. The first 30 days are structured so your sourcing engine is fully operational before pipeline reporting begins.
National coverage across high-value Lower Middle Market verticals. Each engagement is scoped to your specific acquisition thesis, geography, and financial criteria.
Physician-owned practices, dental groups, outpatient clinics, functional medicine, and specialty medical services.
HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, landscaping, and specialty contracting businesses with recurring revenue.
IT managed services, staffing, logistics, janitorial, professional services, and B2B recurring models.
DTC brands, e-commerce platforms, franchise operations, and consumer product businesses with margin strength.
Aligned Profit works best for acquisition-focused firms that operate off-market — where mandate clarity and relationship depth matter more than speed to close.
Buy-side teams running systematic acquisition programs with defined target profiles and geographic focus.
Searchers and sponsors looking to build proprietary deal flow independently of banker networks.
Strategic acquisition teams at platform companies looking to expand through bolt-on acquisitions.
Engagement structure is determined based on mandate scope, sector focus, and sourcing coverage. Most clients engage Aligned Profit as a monthly origination partner.
Tell us your target profile, acquisition thesis, and geography — and we'll show you what a first month of origination coverage looks like.
