Illustrative target-map fields
No real owner contact details are shown here.
| Field | Example value | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Target name | Example HVAC Services LLC | Company matched to the buyer's vertical and geography |
| Fit rationale | Residential service focus, three local branches, strong review density | Explains why the company belongs on the map |
| Revenue estimate | $6M-$9M, moderate confidence | Helps prioritize likely scale before outreach |
| Revenue signals | Permit volume, fleet count, job postings, review volume | Shows how the estimate was triangulated |
| Owner identification | Founder/owner identified, LinkedIn found, email verification pending | Separates owner-led operators from branch managers or platform assets |
| Acquisition status | Independent; no public acquisition record found | Reduces time wasted on already-acquired companies |
| Buyer activity nearby | Two platform acquisitions within 18 months in adjacent counties | Shows competitive pressure and urgency |
| Source links | Company site, permit database, license lookup, local reviews | Lets your team audit the evidence |
These fields come from a custom acquisition target list. Revenue ranges follow our revenue estimation method, and the same fields work for screening a trade show roster.
