97% Margin Business for $65K for sale
Hey there,
We have an investment opportunity on a deal currently under LOI.
Deal Alert: Beauty Industry Accreditation & Training Association
📍 Location: Confidential (only operator in its space)
💰 Asking Price: $65K
💸 Revenue: $88,285.77
💵 Profit: $86,085 (~97% margin)
👥 Members: 1,473 active (annual & biannual renewals)
⏰ Owner Involvement: ~10 hours per week
🌟 Why This Business is Great:
✔ Monopoly Position – Only recognized player in its niche.
✔ Ultra-High Margins – 97% profit margin with lean overhead.
✔ Sticky Member Base – Nearly 1,500 active members.
✔ Low Time Demand – Runs in ~10 hours/week.
✔ Proven Lifetime Value – $1.73M in annualized LTV.
🚧 Challenges to Watch:
Low renewal rate (15.33%) but a big upside if improved.
Concentrated revenue in accreditation/training only.
Small revenue base (<$90K).
No subscription model to keep members engaged year-round.
🚀 Growth Opportunities:
Add subscription layers for monthly recurring revenue.
Partner with beauty schools, salons, suppliers.
Turn curriculums into digital courses/micro-certifications.
Expand “train the trainer” model.
Launch events, summits, or workshops.
🔍 My Analysis:
This is a rare turnkey deal: nearly 100% profit margins, monopoly positioning, and a low-time commitment. The main weakness is the 15% renewal rate, but that’s also the biggest opportunity — simple engagement fixes could push revenues into the $200K–$300K range. At under 1x multiple on earnings, the $65K price feels like a steal, with payback in less than a year.
Reply to this email if you’re interested, and we’ll send you more info and connect you directly with the operator who will run the business. For you, it’ll be passive.
Best,
Moran
