Site Flipping Experts - How do you sell a 'service' based website?
First off, we're not selling minisitefrog at this stage. We've been asked by a close associate who is considering selling her 'service providing' website.
So let's say that you own a website which brings in $X,XXX per month.
However, the catch is that there's labour (writing, designing, seo, whatever) involved to bring in that amount per month.
So in other words, it's not automated like most websites for sale.
I can think of two kinds of buyers in this scenario.
The 1st buyer. She's capable of operating the business as she has the necessary skills to provide the services the business offers... so she therefore takes on the responsibility of providing the services herself.
The 2nd buyer. He is a businessman/investor who thinks he is capable of organizing people and systems to run the business for him.
So here's the issue.
Let's say the business/website brings in $10,000 a month, and pays $1,000 in expenses per month. Obviously the 'net profit' would be $9,000 right?
BUT, there is time and labour involved to bring in that $9,000/month. How do you account for the time and labour involved to bring this in?
Is there any demand for a website/business like this on Flippa?
