Reach founders, operators, and intermediaries the moment a liquidity event, leadership change, or growth milestone opens a window. We draft the outreach in your voice; you approve every send.
PE deal flow lives or dies on timing. You source off-market by reaching founders, operators, and intermediaries inside a specific window, often the first 60 to 90 days after a funding round, an acquisition, or a leadership change. Miss that window and the deal is gone or already encumbered. The moment a founder closes capital or a portfolio company names a new head of sales is the moment to frame a partnership or an acquisition thesis.
The problem is not a shortage of signals. It is the opposite. Crunchbase, PitchBook, and the filings fire constantly, and separating the actionable event from the noise, then timing outreach to land in that narrow window, is intensive manual work. By the time a deal team has verified the lead, found the angle, and written the email, the window is closing.
PulsePoint monitors real, dated public events, funding rounds, executive hires, M&A filings, expansions, and surfaces the ones that match your thesis. We draft the outreach in your voice, referencing the specific event, and you approve every message before it sends. The work is done for you. Your involvement is a short weekly review.
A company just closed capital. In the weeks that follow, leadership is deciding how to deploy it, which is exactly when doors open to partnerships, or when an acquisition can be framed as a capital-efficient path for a founder. A close is a specific, dated, time-bound reason to reach out.
A new CFO, COO, or head of business development typically runs a review of vendors, partners, and priorities inside their first quarter. New leadership resets the decision map, and the first 60 to 90 days are when an incoming executive is most open to a new relationship.
A portfolio company acquires another firm, or is acquired. Through the integration phase, teams are reviewing operations, redundant functions, and vendor relationships. That is the window to surface a service, a platform, or an add-on thesis that simplifies the combined business.
A company enters a new market, launches a new line, or adds a vertical. Each move is a separate hiring and partnership window, visible in filings, announcements, and press. A company in motion has gaps that did not exist a quarter ago.
A new board member or lead investor arrives with their own playbook, relationships, and prior exits. These shifts often precede a strategy change or a fresh appetite for acquisitions, and they are a tell that the company is entering a new chapter.
PE teams and the operators they sell to are relationship-driven and reputation-sensitive. A cold blast from a generic tool, or a one-size-fits-all email under your name, does more harm than good. The done-for-you model exists for exactly this: every message is approved by your team before it goes live. You control the tone, the angle, and the timing. Nothing automated goes out under your domain without a human sign-off.
The stakes are high. A missed window is a missed deal, and a wrong-toned email can cost you a founder or an intermediary you will see again. Human approval is not a courtesy here. It is a liability shield. You review a finished draft, not a pile of raw leads, and it takes a few minutes a week.
The service amplifies your existing sourcing playbook rather than replacing it. You already know your thesis, your buyer, and your angles. PulsePoint finds the moments when those angles are most relevant, drafts the message tied to the real event, and you approve it. Sends go from a warmed secondary domain so your primary domain and your reputation stay protected.
Yes. Off-market situations are usually preceded by public events: a founder hire, a strategic appointment, a filing, a raise. PulsePoint surfaces those events and times your outreach to land in the weeks after, when a founder or operator is most likely weighing options. You reach the right person with a specific reason, not a generic pitch.
Every email is drafted by PulsePoint, reviewed by your team, and approved before it sends. You control the narrative. Each message references a specific, recent, dated event, a raise, an executive hire, a filing, that proves you were paying attention. That is the opposite of a blast, and it reads that way to the recipient.
PulsePoint monitors public events continuously and surfaces qualified, on-thesis leads with a drafted angle shortly after they occur. Your team reviews on a weekly cadence, approves, and the sends go out. The point is to be early with a relevant angle rather than tenth with a generic one, without your deal team living in a news feed.
Completely. Nothing sends without your approval. You see every drafted message tied to its signal, adjust anything you want, and approve or decline. The firm sourcing and drafting is done for you, but the decision to reach a given founder or intermediary is always yours.
PulsePoint Strategic runs signal-based outbound as a done-for-you service. We detect the events, draft the outreach in your voice, and you approve every send. See the signal intelligence page, or estimate the impact with the ROI calculator.
