This listing is for a SaaS business created in September 2013 in the privacy niche. The custom built site features a subscription service to use a virtual private network (VPN) with servers in 20 countries. The business has over 10K active subscribers on the lifetime plan, an email list over 15k, and an Instagram following of over 17K.

The majority of the traffic comes from Google, with the remaining traffic coming from discount plans using an affiliate network, from forums, and from promotions on social media. Since owning the business the Seller has enjoyed managing two contractors. One takes care of customer support and the other is a backend developer who manages all the server provider relationships. They both look forward to continuing with the Buyer.

The Seller recently surveyed over 14,000 users, and 80% of the respondents were happy with the product and the experience, with a new desktop client being the #1 request. This is an opportunity for the Buyer to pursue. The #1 change the Seller would immediately implement is updating the system to do recurring payments. Though customers do not experience any difference, currently the business manually processes payments each month.

*When users use the VPN for activity that violates the terms of service the business gets complaints from the server providers. From there the Seller bans the users from the VPN and the servers.

*August 2018 saw an increase in contractor payments for backend fixes to payments and design. This neutralized the increased revenue for the month.

*We’ve decided to use a 7-month average of net profit for the valuation because we felt that a 12-month average did not accurately represent the current state of the business.

This listing is for an Amazon Associates business created in April 2015 in the parenting niche. The site offers parenting tips and product reviews for kids of all ages (newborn on up). There are currently about 100 pages on the site. The seller wrote 75% of the content themselves, but they have outsourced in the past, so this is an option for the new owner. The site itself is also very branded, targeting a certain subsection of its niche to provide over the top valuable content versus traditional affiliate niche sites in the space.

Included in the sale of this business are social media accounts for Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. The Twitter account has the largest following with over 4,500 followers. The seller recently started focusing on growing the Pinterest audience for the account and it is currently sitting at about 800 followers. They haven't promoted affiliate links on Pinterest as of yet. The Facebook account has 200 followers.

There are currently no email list subscribers, so building this is a great opportunity for a new buyer to use for marketing, especially in this niche. Right now the seller is planning to use this email list to curate a weekly newsletter to subscribers to bring them back to profitable pieces of content that the site has created.

Please note that there was a negative SEO attack on one particular page in early 2017. The seller submitted a “Disavow” file to Google and regularly updates it. They have also tracked 95+ "buyer-intent" keywords for the site, and they haven't been affected by the attack.

This online accessory retailer was created by the seller to fill the need for a stylish and practical accessory that the owner couldn’t find anywhere else. The seller spent a year designing the products, sourcing materials, creating a relationship with the Chinese manufacturer, and developing the website and social media postings.

The company has almost 23,000 organic/authentic followers on Instagram and 2,000 on Facebook. Their products were featured on a prominent fashion/lifestyle web site as one of the top 10 accessories of its kind. They recently spent $ 3,000 to set up an account on Amazon and are starting to get orders.

This is a great home-based business for someone with E-Commerce marketing experience. The seller doesn’t have the level of marketing expertise or time to grow the business to its full potential. Asking price includes $80K in inventory as well as intellectual property valued at $25K.
