Would you pay $95,000 for a business that makes money while you sleep? Because I might. It's an SEO agency that's fully productized. And if you're in the space, it might be an easy, easy win. Current owner spends about an hour a week managing it, sometimes even less. 60% profit margins and Stripe shows almost 1,000% growth in the last 12 months alone. All the customers are coming from SEO or social. They're all organic. Probably means you could layer on some paid and comes with a 1,000-person subscriber list as a newsletter. Here, let me show you how I grow it really quickly. The easiest way to play with this is gonna be to test the pricing. It's got strong demand. So little by little, see if a couple customers are willing to pay 20, maybe 30% more for the same product. If they are, there's the signal and the noise, run it across the board and you make a big difference to the bottom line. Then I would add in some other services. Right now they just sell backlinks. I would add in content creation as an upsell. After that, maybe build a little SEO course for like $47, $97. Go and sell that to that email list or people that are not ready to pay for the link building. It'll be a great first piece of the funnel that gets them to buy from you again later on. It might be actually possible to double the revenue with the changes I just spoke about. Maybe make the business worth like $150,000 to $175,000 for an easy flip or something you just held in your portfolio. Would you buy this business or want more breakdowns like this? Let me know.
