Meet owners who aren't selling yet.
Off-market owner outreach for people buying a small business.
No commission. No percentage of your deal. Just $750 a month, flat.
Emails out by day 21, or month 2 is free.How it works
$750 a month gets up to about 1,000 matched owners contacted each month in your name, depending on your buy box, and interested owners get your calendar link. No setup fee, no success fee.
1. You tell us what you want to buy.
Industry, states, size, years in business, and what to leave out. That's your buy box.
2. We research owners who fit.
We build your list from public sources, like government business records and companies' own websites. Every email address is checked before we send.
3. You approve every email.
We write short, plain emails in your voice. They go out in your name, as you, from email accounts set up just for you. Nothing is sent until you say yes. Every email includes an opt-out link and a mailing address.
4. We sort the replies.
We read every reply. Opt-outs are removed within 24 hours. Interested owners get three short questions you choose, sent as you.
5. Interested owners get your calendar link.
We send them your booking link. From there, the conversation is yours.
Our software does the research, list building and reply sorting. You approve every email, and nothing goes out without your yes.
You see everything. A weekly report every Monday, plus a live Google Sheet you can export any time.
Onboarding timeline
Week 1
You send your buy box and a few emails you've written, so we can match your voice. We set up your sending domains and start warming them up. You get your first owner list to review.
Weeks 2-3
You approve the 3-email sequence and your 3 screening questions. The inboxes keep warming up.
By day 21
Sending starts at a steady daily pace. Your first Monday report follows, and the live Sheet updates as replies come in.
What you get
These are examples with made-up placeholder data, not real businesses or real results.
Example. Your real emails are written in your voice and approved by you.
Subject: Your company, {Business name}
Hi {First name},
I'm {Your name}, and I'm looking to buy and run one {industry} business in {region} myself. {Business name} stood out because {one specific, true reason, like years in business or reputation}.
Would you ever consider a conversation about the future of the company? No pressure, and no is a fine answer.
{Your name}
{Your mailing address} · Not interested? Unsubscribe here or reply 'stop' and I won't email again.
Example weekly report rows. Made-up data, names blacked out.
| Business | City | Status | Reply excerpt | Answers to your 3 questions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plumbing | Waco, TX | Interested, calendar link sent | "Happy to talk. Next month works better for me." | $1-3M · 1-3 years · Makes the decision |
| Landscaping | Tyler, TX | Not now | "Not this year. Maybe down the road." | - |
| Machine Shop | Abilene, TX | Opted out, never emailed again | "Please take me off your list." | - |
Example. You choose your own three.
- Roughly what's your yearly revenue: under $1M, $1-3M, $3-5M, or over $5M?
- If the right person came along, when might you consider a change: within a year, 1-3 years, or not sure?
- Are you the one who'd make that decision, or are there partners involved?
What's included — $750/month
$750/month is the whole price. We never charge commission, a percentage of your deal or a success fee, whether you buy a $500K business or a $5M one.
- 1 buy box
- Up to about 1,000 matched owners contacted each month in your name, depending on your buy box.
- A 3-step email sequence, written in your voice and approved by you
- Your owner list, built from public sources and email-verified
- Separate sending domains and inboxes set up and warmed up for you
- Reply sorting and opt-out handling
- 3 pre-qualifying questions for interested owners

$0 setup. No success fee, ever. A full year costs $9,000 flat, whether or not you buy.
Our day-21 guarantee: if your emails aren't going out by day 21, you pay nothing for month 2. Day 21 counts from your first payment. Days we spend waiting on your buy box or approvals don't count toward it.
Founding rate First 5 clients
Our first 5 clients keep $750/month locked for 12 months.
Term
2-month minimum, then month to month. Cancel with 7 days' notice. If your emails aren't going out by day 21, month 2 is free.
Why the minimum? New email accounts need about 3 weeks of warmup before they can send safely. Most of month 1 is setup.
Need more than one buy box? A two-buy-box option will be available later.
What we don't do
We keep our role narrow on purpose.
- We are not a broker, finder, agent, or adviser.
- We never tell owners "we have a buyer." The emails come from you, as you.
- We don't negotiate, and we don't comment on price, value, or multiples.
- We don't do valuations or give financial, tax, or legal advice.
- We don't handle money, NDAs, letters of intent, or closing.
- We never charge a success fee or commission, and we never take money from owners.
- We never show your owners, or the ones you pass on, to anyone else.
- No phone calls, handwritten letters, or LinkedIn automation.
Once a call is booked, our job is done and the conversation is yours.
How we compare
Here's a full first year with us next to an example owner-outreach service that charges a monthly fee, a setup fee and a success fee when you buy.
| Item | Example service with a success fee | Klontak |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly fee | $700 | $750 |
| Setup fee | $700 | $0 |
| Percentage of the price when you buy | Yes | Never. We never charge a success fee. |
| First year, if you don't buy | $9,100 | $9,000 |
| First year, if you buy a $1.8M business* | $82,700 | $9,000 |
*$1.8M is BizBuySell's Q3 2026 median sale price for deals over $1M (Q3 2026 report). The example service's total uses its published fee schedule, applied to that price. It's an example, not a prediction.
Some services include a human team or LinkedIn outreach. We focus on email.
Where we're different: your cost is fixed. You know exactly what you'll pay, and your owner list stays yours.

Who runs Klontak
Jason, founder of JW AI Works
I'm Jason, and I run Klontak from Dallas as part of JW AI Works. I built it because buyers shouldn't have to give up a cut of their deal just to reach owners who haven't listed yet.
Klontak is new, and we're taking our first clients now. There are no case studies yet, so you can see the work before you pay with a free 50-owner sample. You also get a flat price and a guarantee that your emails start going out by day 21.
Questions? Email me at hello@klontak.com or call 817-668-6981.
FAQ
- Who sends the emails?
- Every email goes out in your name, from inboxes set up just for you. We write the drafts, you approve them, and we send them on the schedule you approve.
- Will you use my main email domain?
- No. We set up separate domains for your outreach so your main domain is never at risk. They're yours, and we'll hand them over if you ask.
- How many replies or meetings will I get?
- We can't promise any number. It depends on your buy box and market. For a rough reference, one outreach firm shared its 2025 numbers on Searchfunder: 82,035 emails to owners led to 1,815 replies (3.87%). That's their combined result, not a forecast. (source)
- What happens when an owner is interested?
- We ask your three pre-qualifying questions, then send your calendar link. Once the call is booked, you take it from there. We don't join the conversation.
- How long until emails start going out?
- By day 21, guaranteed, not counting days we're waiting on your approvals. New inboxes need about 3 weeks to warm up so your emails reach the inbox, not spam. If we miss day 21, month 2 is free.
- Do you take a commission or a cut of the deal?
No. Never. Klontak charges one flat fee of $750 a month. There's no commission, no percentage of the purchase price, no success fee and no setup fee, and we never take money from business owners.
Some deal-flow services charge a monthly fee plus a success fee when you buy, up to 5% of the price. On a $1.8M business*, a sliding fee like that comes to about $82,000. With Klontak, a full year costs $9,000 whether you buy or not.
*$1.8M is BizBuySell's Q3 2026 median sale price for businesses over $1M (https://www.bizbuysell.com/insight-report/). It's an example, not a prediction.
- Do owners ever pay you anything?
- No. We never take payment from business owners. You pay one flat monthly fee, and that's it.
- What happens to my data if I cancel?
- Your list, replies, and pipeline are confidential. We never share them with other clients or any other brand. We delete your data within 90 days after you cancel, or sooner if you ask. We keep only the opt-out list, so those owners are never emailed again.
- Could another client email the same owner?
- Not at the same time. While an owner is in your outreach, we won't contact them for another client, and an owner you pass on is never shown to anyone else. If two buy boxes overlap a lot, we'll tell you before you sign up.
- How does "about 1,000 owners a month" work?
We set up 3 sending domains with 2 inboxes each for you and send a steady 25 or fewer emails a day from each inbox, which keeps your emails out of spam. Each owner gets up to 3 short emails, and an owner who replies or opts out gets no more.
If your buy box runs out of owners, we'll tell you right away. Then we either widen the buy box with you or pause your billing until there's more to send. We don't estimate replies or meetings.
- What do the emails include by law?
Every email carries your name and your mailing address (a PO box or virtual mailbox is fine) plus a one-click way to opt out. We email business addresses, not personal ones.
Opt-outs are permanent. An owner who opts out is never emailed again for you, even after you cancel, and never for any other client.
We delete your data within 90 days after you cancel, or sooner if you ask. We keep only the opt-out list, so those owners are never emailed again.
- Can I cancel?
- Yes. After the 2-month minimum, it's month to month with 7 days' notice.
