Ask HN: Thinking about selling my SaaS business
I'm thinking about selling my SaaS business, which I have been running for almost three years now. Modest year-over-year growth (50-60%), low churn, healthy profit margin (90%), loyal customer base, strong SEO.
tech stack is simple - vanilla Rails app, Sidekiq + Redis, SQLite, hosted on Hetzner's bare metal server.
The business doesn't require much maintenance, but it does require some technical skills to operate. The biggest channel is SEO, which is on autopilot.
* MRR - $1.7k ($20k ARR)
* TTM Revenue - $17k
* TTM Profit - $15k
* ARPU - $9.1
* LTV - $140
Asking price - $85k (lower, if you're willing to move quickly)
There's room for growth, but you'll need to invest in further product development.
The previous business I sold was neglected by the new owner and shut down two years later. I built a lot of goodwill with my customers, so looking for someone who will take good care of them.
