Estimated Reading Time = 5 minutes
🚀 Startup Spotlight
Discover profitable online and traditional businesses.
💰 Asking Price: $1,200,000
Growing Shopify app in the content locking niche from a well-known app developer with $352,000 ARR and 90% margins.
Type: SaaS
✅ Key Highlights
$22,168 in Monthly Profit
90% Profit Margin
$352,000 ARR
🚀 Growth Opportunities
Ads: In order to keep growing monthly revenue I’d look into different ad platforms like shopify ads and google ads. Create a lead magnet which offers ecom brands some value in exchange to get their email or an app download.
Integrations: The current app already has great traction. So in order to lean deeper into this I’d try figure out how to get more integrations on the app so we can tap into different networks and audiences on other apps.
🚩 Cons
Niche Dependent: New founder will have to consider how big the TAM actually is. I’d look into the features of the app and figure out if someone new can come into this space and beat us solely on pricing.
💰 Asking Price: $1,126,520
Established eCommerce business in profitable health & beauty industry with high profit margin.
Strong revenue and authority. Don't miss this opportunity.
Type: eCom
✅ Key Highlights
$31,748 in Monthly Revenue
$26,499 in Monthly Profit
83% Profit Margin
$380,976 ARR
$317,988 in Annual Profit
🚀 Growth Opportunities
Advertising: With a strong retention rate it shows that the product is good and customer come back. I would dive into LTV numbers and figure lean back into what acquisition cost is needed to drive more new customers into the business.
Subscription Service: Customers have requested an automated subscription service that replenishes key skincare ingredients they use daily so they don’t run out. Will be a great opportunity to guarantee MRR for the coming months.
🚩 Cons
Marketing Cost: For some reason I didn’t see any marketing costs associated to the business. The P&L didn’t show any costs either which brings the question “How are they getting new customers?”
In Partnership With Foxwell Founders
Foxwell Founders is a community of some of the smartest marketers and operators in the world.
I personally am active in that group and often engage with other members whenever I have questions around finance, operations or marketing for businesses.
Foxwell Founders also provide monthly audits, expert discussions, small group masterminds and much more!
So, If you’re looking to upgrade your knowledge and also be surrounded by supportive operators who you can get direct access to and ask any question you want then I’d highly recommend talking to Andrew.

💰 Asking Price: $260,000
ULTIMATE recession proof scalable high profit margin business with constant revenue that can be grown exponentially!
Automated systems in place means less oversight needed for workers. Highly experienced Seller offers guidance to Buyer for smooth transition.
Type: Service Business
✅ Key Highlights
$241,470 in Gross Revenue
$105,031 in Cash Flow
$300,000 in FF&E
$5,000 in Inventory
🚀 Growth Opportunities
SEO: Current owners have multiple websites and plenty of backlinks already setup. As a new owner I’d double down on this strategy and figure out how to rank on more local keywords in the area.
