A profitable, lean SEO and digital-marketing agency, operating since 2019,
available for the first time.
The numbers are real. Trailing-twelve-month revenue of $299,709 and seller's
discretionary earnings of $126,204 — a 42.
1% margin — supported by minimal,
conservative add-backs (roughly $1,815) and no owner-salary games. What's
reported is substantially genuine cash flow, not adjustment-driven earnings.
And it's trending up into the sale.
The most recent four months (Jan–Apr 2026)
averaged about $34.9K per month, well above the trailing average, with April
2026 the single strongest month in the entire review period. Buyers underwriting
on current run-rate are looking at a business with momentum, not one being sold
on its past.
Here's what makes it efficient: the business runs on inherited demand. A mature
presence and ratings on a leading freelance-services marketplace — amplified by
an automated bidding system — generate a steady flow of qualified opportunities
at effectively zero paid-acquisition cost. The entire software stack costs about
$862 per month.
There's no office, no payroll infrastructure, and no debt.
Delivery doesn't rest on the owner. Fulfillment is anchored by a technical-SEO
lead with roughly five years of tenure, backed by a flexible bench of specialist
content and link-building vendors engaged per project.
Costs scale with revenue,
which protects margin through slower stretches. The owner currently leads sales
and client relationships — and that's the opening.
Because here's what hasn't been built: no signed retainers (the loyal repeat
book bills month-to-month on results alone), no off-platform direct-sales
motion, no paid-acquisition funnel, no CRM.
The business reached a 42% margin on
delivery and reputation alone. A buyer with an actual sales-and-marketing
playbook inherits an entire growth layer the business has never had — convert
the book to retainers, sell off-platform to cut fees, add fulfillment capacity
to break the current revenue ceiling, and productize link-building for
predictable upsell. Execute those and the effective entry multiple compresses as
revenue scales.
The client base is broadly diversified — professional services, home and local
services, e-commerce, and more — with no single-industry concentration, billed
across the marketplace and a direct invoicing channel.
Offered at $375,000, approximately 3.0x trailing-twelve-month SDE — squarely in
the range established owner-operated agencies trade at.
The deal is structured
as an asset sale with a phased 90-day transition; the technical-SEO lead is
expected to stay on post-close to preserve delivery continuity.
This is a profitable delivery engine with inherited demand and a completely
unworked sales layer — priced on what it earns today, not what it could earn
under a real operator. Qualified buyers can request the CIM and full data room
(reconciled financial model, statements, tax returns, and client-level revenue
schedule) under NDA.
