02

Boulton shows which investors fit best.

Corran Family Office's site lists business services among the sectors it invests in. That's where Calder Street's deal sits.

03

Each investor hears about how they invest.

A first message built on what their own site says they invest in, with a question, not a pitch. The deal comes up when they ask about it.

04

Replies turn into first meetings.

Priya Raman says they focus on business services and the trades, and asks what Calder Street is working on. Boulton drafts a short answer with two times, the reply goes out, and Wednesday at 2:00 is booked.

Questions.

Does Boulton pitch my deal?

Not in the first message. Boulton opens with a question about how they invest. What you share about a deal, and when, is up to you. Have your counsel review your outreach, as you would for any raise.

Who should I reach at a family office?

Whoever makes the investment decisions: often a principal, a director of investments or the chief investment officer. You name the roles and Boulton finds them.

Can it find funds as well as family offices?

Yes. Family offices, private credit funds, private equity funds: describe the investors you want, and Boulton builds the list and checks each one against the focus it publishes, such as sectors, stage and check size.
