FAQ
Questions and answers.
How does ProxDeal identify companies that are ready for succession?
Through succession signals: you filter mid-sized companies by managing director age, industry and region, and combine this with financial metrics and shareholder structure. The result is a longlist of genuine handover situations.
Do I get the owners' contact details?
Yes. For every result, ProxDeal provides the right contact at managing director or C-level, with title and function. For a personal approach, verified postal addresses for letter mailings are also available.
How long does a longlist for a narrow niche take?
Minutes instead of weeks. You describe the target profile once, and more than 1,000 AI analysts research the entire market in parallel. This replaces the manual research that typically takes up months of a search.
Does ProxDeal also find companies without a website?
Yes. The search is based on official register data and annual financial statements, not on Google rankings. As a result, hidden champions with hardly any online visibility appear too — exactly the companies other searchers overlook.
Can I narrow the search down to a region or country?
Yes, right down to street level. Besides countries and regions, you can filter by postcode, street name and coordinates — for example, all matching companies within a radius of a specific location.
