An established personal introduction business operating in the sugar dating niche, generating approximately £12,000 annual turnover, with very low overheads and an average owner workload of around three hours per week.
The business operates remotely, with an initial client conversation followed by introductions and support primarily by email. It would suit an owner-operator seeking a manageable part-time business or an existing introduction agency looking to expand. At present the business generates all enquiries through search engine optimisation with no advertising.
Key features:
• Established history of organic online enquiries.
• No current paid advertising expenditure.
• Low website and domain running costs.
• Approximately three hours of owner involvement per week.
• No business premises required.
• Payment records available to substantiate reported turnover.
The owner takes a selective approach to accepting paying clients, based on the ability to provide suitable introductions.
Potential development opportunities include testing paid marketing, reviewing service packages and increasing the number of clients served. These opportunities are untested and are not included in the reported turnover.
The proposed sale includes the website, domain, trading name and operating procedures. Existing client commitments and any lawful transfer of client information would be addressed as part of the sale.
To preserve client discretion and business confidentiality, the trading name, website address and specific market niche are withheld from the public advertisement. These details and supporting financial information will be provided to serious prospective buyers following a confidentiality agreement.
