Owner meetings for M&A advisors and business brokers.
You need owners who are getting ready to sell, before they call three other firms. I find them from public records and book the meeting.
The signals I use.

Every name comes with the evidence behind it. The signals decide who I contact first. The owner's reply is the only proof of interest.
