About the Business

The content management system (CMS) described is an established platform built on Ruby on Rails, used globally by various agencies and companies. It has been operational for over 15 years, providing a SaaS offering that maintains a steady revenue stream from loyal customers, some of whom have been with the platform since 2015. The CMS is recognized within the Ruby on Rails community, with more than 2,300 stars on GitHub, but has not been actively marketed or developed recently. This presents an opportunity for a new owner to refresh or pivot the platform. Key business metrics include a monthly recurring revenue of approximately $1,250 and an annual revenue of about $15,000, verified through payment systems such as Chargebee and PayPal. Infrastructure costs are minimal, around $160 per month, and customer retention is strong, with some clients staying for over ten years. The technology stack includes Ruby on Rails, MongoDB, HAProxy, and Linux infrastructure. The sale includes all necessary assets like the codebase, SaaS hosting platform, customer subscriptions, domain names, documentation, and social media accounts. The business requires minimal maintenance, typically a few hours monthly for infrastructure monitoring and customer queries. Potential growth strategies include renewed marketing efforts, partnerships with web agencies, offering managed hosting or support packages, modernizing the platform's experience, or integrating AI features. The ideal buyer could be a Ruby on Rails agency, a developer team, or an entrepreneur seeking a stable SaaS. The current owner, winding down their development activities, is looking to pass the platform to someone interested in its growth and offers support for a smooth transition.

Buying Advice

Flippa’s platform is free for buyers. Here are our tips for first-time buyers:


Before making an offer

1. Look for verified sellers. Sellers should verify their email, phone, and government ID. When a seller has completed all verifications, we identify them with a checkmark like this:

2. Review financials. Financials are seller-provided inputs. Always ask for verified financials. Ask for a tax return or request access to their dashboard. if it’s an ecommerce store get a transaction report.

3. Review traffic. Sellers can grant you access to Google Analytics. Ask for read-only access to verify site traffic.

4. Schedule a call. Communication is key. The best way to find out more is to speak directly with the seller. For your protection, keep all communication within Flippa.

5. Make the offer on Flippa. We’re here to help. Flippa does not charge buyers and by making an offer on Flippa you’ll get access to our post-sales support team.
