Business for Sale Overview:
Financial information above is based on 06/22/08-06/23/09 trailing 12. Please note that the Sales for the first 6 months of 2009 (Jan-June) were $269,600, with discretionary earnings of $152,159. So it is on track to earn around $200,000 in 2009. The way this company is currently operating with only 2 people requires very little on the expense side relative to many other types of businesses. Listing company has a Lender excited about this business. SBA financing may be available for the right buyer at 25-30% down payment. This Media-related business presents a potentially perfect opportunity for the right displaced white collar entrepreneur with inside sales ability. It involves direct B2B sales to the small business owner in a wide variety of industries. Periodic repeat business has not been actively sought after. For the most part, the clients are secured in a one-day "sales cycle." Clients pay up front by credit card before the project is begun. Any sales made in week one, are paid for by the next Friday when the project is completed. There are no out of pocket vendor expenses until the company is paid. So there are no receivables to carry. After many months of r & d/trial & error, the company now has 2 unique proprietary cookie-cutter systems in place. One system relates to sales and another is related to the "production of the product." The research and development efforts paid off, as the company successfully generated high sales in year one, with only 2 people (The owner and his brother) in the middle of a recession. The business has completed projects for over 241 clients. For the 1st 9 months of 2009 (Jan 1-Sept 11) the company had secured 160 clients. All of the clients will transfer with the sale, in addition to the supplier long term contracts on the production side. The details of the business will be forthcoming post fully completed and signed NDA for qualified Buyers. The ideal buyer would have inside sales experience as the business model is actually that of a “call center” for its own proprietary “product”.
