Connection Request

Hi Steve, I help lean acquisition teams get owner conversations without adding internal BD. Built systems for UK funds like Axiom and Mentmore, with some campaigns seeing 20-30% reply rates. Thought it might be relevant for Rigby Technology.

Subject A: one for Rigby Technology
Subject B: 322 uk companies
Email 1A — The Give

Hi Steve — similar-ish background. I'm from Zim and was a banker doing M&A at Greenhill, then moved into growth equity in London. Now I build proprietary origination systems for funds like yours across fragmented UK businesses. Over the past 6 months, one of my systems surfaced 300+ off-market conversations with owners across 10 sectors. I've put them together: 322 UK companies open to sale. One that looked relevant for Rigby Technology: A £50m+ technology firm providing AI-driven digital marketing and automated search platform management for global retail brands. Here's the link: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ Worth a quick call? I can walk through how I got this and share some of the actual names. — Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.

Email 2 — Follow-up

Hi Steve — quick second note in case this got buried. The list is here: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ It is anonymised, but it should show the shape of the work: sector, scale, owner motivation, and enough to judge whether the source is useful for Rigby Technology. Worth 15 mins to map what an origination loop could look like for Rigby Technology? Useful whether you're moving on something now or just want a plan in your back pocket for the next 6-12 months. — Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.

Email 3 — Follow-up

Hi Steve — last nudge. The useful bit is not really the list. It is the system behind it: direct owner conversations, matched to buyer theses, across fragmented UK sectors. One more example that mapped to Rigby Technology: A £25-50m creative technology studio delivering software consultancy, immersive digital experiences, and artificial intelligence solutions to blue-chip clients. Worth 15 mins to map what an origination loop could look like? Useful whether you're moving now or just want a plan in your back pocket for the next 6-12 months. — Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.

Email 4 — Breakup

Steve — I'll leave it there. Link's here if useful later: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ — Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.
