Seller Information

Seller FAQs

  • Do online businesses ever sell for less than the listing price?

    Buyers can make offers on your website or business at full list price. We’ll take the offers to you and you have the option to accept or make a counteroffer. There may be times when you and the buyer will want to meet in the middle and create a financing plan.

  • How long does it take to sell a business thru TradeMyApp?

    This varies heavily and will depend on several factors including what platform the site is built on, how much work is required, how transferable the monetization strategy is, how much documentation has been done of the processes, etc. We ask for at least 3 months exclusivity to list and sell your online business. We can give you our professional estimate after reviewing/vetting your business for sale, but remember every business is unique and our estimations are educated guesses, not the actual timeline of when it will be sold.

  • What is the success rate of selling businesses through TradeMyApp?

    Our success rate is around 80%. If a business doesn’t sell within 3 months, you have the option of taking your listing elsewhere.

  • How much will my business sell for?

    Online businesses are sold on a multiple of net monthly profit. We typically take an average of the net profit over the last 12 months and multiply by 20 to determine the price. In cases where the business has assets, we add the wholesale or discounted value of the assets on top of the multiplier.

  •  
    Will the currnet owners train me to run the business?
    Depending on the complexities of the business the former owner will offer varying levels of training. On most small businesses the owner will offer training for two to four weeks at no cost to the new owner.
  •  
    How do i know that the profit figures that the sellers claim are true?
    As part of the acquisition process you will have to go through “due diligence.” During this period the seller is required to present documents to verify his profit numbers.
  •  
    Will i have to come up with the entire purchase price?
    No, while 100% of the purchase price is sometimes required, sellers will frequently provide owner financing to some extent. Additionally a bank may be able to loan up to 80% of the purchase price through a loan sponsored the Small Business Administration.
  •  
    How much money will it take to buy a small business?
    Businesses vary in price a great deal however it would be unlikely that one could buy a business with much less of a down payment than $50,000.

    "Online Business" Brokerage

    What is a website broker?       The primary function of a website broker is to help webmasters sell their web business.The process is that you identify a website broker.You enter into a sales agreement. This is normally an exclusive agreement that is valid for 90 days.We then prepare the information memorandum about the website to be used to show potential buyers. This document has all the relevant information about the website, its financials, traffic stats and answers to general questions.WeThe broker will then go out and sell your website to potential buyers. Screen them with their screening process and present you the best offers.Your site will get evaluated and then presented in a way to gain the highest possible price.In that process there are a number of tasks performed to try and maximise price

    Determine an appropriate valuation range,Compile an information memorandum (sales memorandum),Market the website,Present the website to potential buyers,Draft and present offers,Assist in negotiation on behalf of the seller,Protect sellers’ confidentiality,Look after paperwork,Provide after-sales support.

    The buyer will normally sign a letter of intent (LOI) and ask for  a set period for final due diligence. It is your choice as the buyer as to whether you allow this to be exclusive or not.Buyer will make a formal offer after due diligence, seller will either accept or decline that offer.

    Then the transfer process happens. Money is normally transferred using an escrow service. That can either be the brokers trust account, a lawyers trust account or an escrow service. We prefer our own service or escrow.com. The site is then transferred to the new owner, the seller receives their funds and the buyer will take ownership of the website.
