A tightly focused publication about small-business acquisitions, operators, employees, customers, and growth.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The publication divides its reporting into operational desks such as The buy, The crew, The books, and Shop floor, with topic paths covering succession, employees, customers, growth, and service companies. Its visible issue is marked Vol. I, No. 1 and includes sourced case studies ranging from an SBA-style HVAC acquisition to a $11,399-versus-$4,439 customer pricing episode. Search, a directory, SMB and real-estate graphs, and an Invest section indicate a broader information architecture than a simple article feed.
