Issue #47 • January 15, 2024 • Sample Edition
Bi-weekly curated deal flow, from a buyer's perspective
Curated from 127 listings across Flippa, Empire Flippers, QuietLight & more
Welcome to issue #47! This week we reviewed 127 new listings and found 5 deals worth your attention. The market is showing strong demand for profitable SaaS tools and established content businesses. Here's what caught our eye:
"$840K ARR with 45% YoY growth, sticky SaaS product."
"Growth is real, but churn data not disclosed. At this multiple, retention is a deal-breaker."
"Ask for churn by cohort — are customers staying beyond 12 months?"
"7/10 — Attractive, but risky without solid churn and LTV validation."
"35% margins and strong repeat purchases."
"True margins limited to 50% revenue tied to one supplier = fragility risk."
"Review supplier contracts — any exclusivity or backup?"
"Push valuation down to 1.5x SDE using supplier concentration as leverage."
"5/10 — Profitable, but risky without supplier diversification."
"25K+ email subs with strong affiliate revenue."
"80% of revenue from one affiliate partner = concentration risk, not diversification."
Get revenue breakdown by affiliate. Look for dependency >30% on core partner.
"Add 2-3 affiliate programs or introduce direct offers to audience."
"4/10 — Fragile until monetization is broadened."
