Depends on the size of the transactions you are trying to do. As they get larger, it is increasingly more important to align with a platform that you can sell as being valuable during a process.
Transactions for a boutique firm are small in the range of 10M to 100M.
At that level, you can likely win the mandate and run the deal independently. The only reasons you need to become part of something larger is if you need to:
Tout access to private equity or foreign strategics
Compete in bake offs and demonstrate industry or vertical expertise
For a 100m deal you are gonna need at least 1 junior and 1 medior to check details, manage the process, chase managers at the client to provide information, etc. etc.
