18-year-old Ontario digital marketing agency offering SEO, Google Ads, and WordPress design to small and mid-sized businesses.

πŸ’° $160K revenue, $131K earnings
πŸ“Š 80% net margins, ~$13K MRR
πŸ” ~90% recurring, clients stay 3-4 years on month-to-month terms
πŸ‘₯ Largest client just 7% of MRR, top three under 20%
πŸ… Google Partner since 2015, manages $1M in annual ad spend
⏱️ Owner works 15-20 hours a week with offshore delivery team

Every client in five years came from referrals or organic search, so the growth levers are unused. Re-engaging 200-250 past clients and formalizing referrals are the clearest paths, with a 70-location franchisor already in talks.

Turnaround opportunity. 7-year-old shelf-stable dried smoothie line built for foodservice operators.

πŸ’° $210K revenue, $41K earnings
πŸ“Š 46-48% gross margins, upside on larger runs
πŸ₯€ 1.2 million smoothies sold across hundreds of customers
🏨 Accounts include Westin, Four Seasons, St. Regis, SFO, and DFW
πŸ” High repeat-order rate, multi-year accounts
πŸ“¬ 130K-contact email list, DTC currently inactive

Revenue dipped only because the owner shifted focus to a separate snack line and hit a stockout, not lost demand. Reactivating dormant foodservice accounts and relaunching DTC are the clearest levers.

Most people think an SBA loan means borrowing from the government. That's not how it works, and the real mechanics are why buyers can access capital at competitive rates.

Now available. 38-year-old business delivering daily fresh-produce market intelligence to the agriculture industry.

πŸ’° $243K revenue, $185K earnings
πŸ” Recurring subscriptions billed $60 to $400 a month

⏱️ Run in ~2.5 hours a day by the owner and his wife, no employees

It aggregates USDA data into custom reports delivered five days a week. No growth has been pursued in over a decade, so static pricing, a never-promoted premium line, and zero marketing are all open levers.

Turnaround opportunity. 8-year-old teen and Gen Z skincare and cosmetics brand, priced near the value of its inventory.

πŸ’° $167K revenue, $115K asking, ~$75K inventory included
πŸ“ˆ DTC grew from $25K in 2024 to $112K TTM, now 67% of sales
πŸ“± 220,000+ TikTok followers, 72K email, 9K SMS subscribers
πŸ“Š 68% gross margins on consumable, repeat-purchase products
πŸ§ͺ Custom formulations owned outright, 9-year manufacturing lab
πŸ“Ί Featured in Forbes, Business Insider, and Vogue Italia

The losses trace to untuned ad spend during light owner attention, not demand. Back out ~$75K of inventory and the brand, formulas, and audience cost roughly $40K. Paid social, retargeting, and email are barely touched.

There's one factor that can tick your multiple up before you ever go to market, especially on a $1-5M business.

It isn't a growth hack or a new channel.

It comes down to a quieter question: do your tax returns show three years of history that line up with your financial statements?

If they do, a whole tier of buyers opens up, and that demand can move the multiple.

What makes a business SBA pre-qualified, and why it can be a game-changer on price, is what we get into in the video.

If you're weighing an exit, book a call with us before you go to market.
