About BizBuySell Scraper
Stop missing opportunities on BizBuySell. Manually checking listings is slow, and their built-in alerts often miss deals or lag behind. This actor automates the entire process, giving you a consistent, reliable feed of fresh business-for-sale data directly from the source. I built this scraper because I needed a better way to track listings across multiple states and categories without the daily manual grind. It runs on a schedule you set, pulling every key detail from BizBuySell: business name, asking price, cash flow, location, and the full description. You get structured data delivered to a spreadsheet, database, or your CRM, ready for analysis. The real benefit is in the workflow. Instead of reacting to stale alerts, you proactively see new listings the moment they hit the market. It lets you filter and prioritize leads based on your specific criteriaβwhether you're a broker, investor, or looking to buy your own business. You save hours of research each week and get a clearer picture of pricing and market trends. It's straightforward to set up. Just configure your target locations and business categories, choose how often to run it, and decide where to send the data. From there, it works quietly in the background, ensuring your deal pipeline is always full with current information.
