An individual is planning to exit their established business, having operated it for nearly two decades. The business, which primarily focuses on delivering personal services, has built long-standing relationships with clients, some of whom have been with them for over 15 years. Emphasizing the importance of maintaining this service level for potential buyers, the owner is willing to explain the processes and financial aspects related to each client. The business also offers several valuable assets, including a suite of keywords and Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) reports, generated through an included campaign application.
The sale includes numerous premium domains, such as various specific hosting sites and other related domains, with existing infrastructure valued at approximately $50,000. The company operates around 17 servers and 10 Virtual Private Servers (VPS), tailored to client needs, maintaining costs around $1,000 monthly. A crucial piece of the infrastructure is a customized VoIP server and a managed Microsoft Exchange server cluster, supporting numerous email accounts.
While the core revenue comes from managed services, there is notable potential to expand into the unmanaged market using the available domains. The seller is open to selling parts of the business but prefers a complete acquisition ensuring a seamless transition. Current assets include about $15,000 in unpaid invoices and $10,000 in prepaid services that can be handled in various ways. Additionally, around 100 client domains and relevant account management platforms are part of the offer, with the transaction subject to a split commission fee.
