Type: SaaS

βœ… Key Highlights

  • $352,000 in TTM revenue

  • $312,000 in TTM profit

  • $28,467 in revenue last month

  • $25,881 in profit last month

πŸš€ Growth Opportunities

  • Content Marketing and SEO: Develop a robust content marketing strategy to improve the app's visibility and organic reach. Create informative blog posts, tutorials, and guides related to content restriction, wholesale strategies, and VIP customer sections within Shopify. Apps like Debutify do a good job of this.

  • $1,294,342 in TTM profit

πŸš€ Growth Opportunities

  • B2B Expansion:

    • Hospitality Industry: Explore partnerships and sales expansion into the hospitality sector, including hotels, medical facilities, and senior citizen facilities. These entities require similar products for their bedding needs, and bulk orders from such businesses can significantly increase revenue.

    • Bulk Sales: Implement a B2B sales team to actively target and cater to businesses' bulk purchasing requirements. This can lead to more stable and higher-volume sales.

  • Affiliates: Seems like the brand gets a lot of scale out of the current affiliates. I’d dive deeper into this process to figure out how to 2x volume. Move to different platforms like Squaredance to 2x the volume of affiliates for your brand.

πŸ’° Asking Price: $1,050,000

This is a great business to own for families, partnerships and sole proprietors. For over 30 years this business has built an impressive reputation and customer base.

  • Financing available to a qualified buyer

  • Highly Profitable Location w/ Repeat Accounts & a Great Reputation

πŸš€ Growth Opportunities

  • Referrals: The business has been running for 30 years and has built an impressive reputation and customer base. Reach out to exisiting customers to see if they know any other business owners who need assistance with marketing services.

Seller is also looking to retire which might mean the asking price might drop when negotiating a deal.
