Monday M&A: 26 New Marketplace Listings

acquire.substack.com

Hey there 👋,

This week’s newsletter is again sponsored by me.

I pre-launched The Newsletter Is The Business where I’m teaching how to funnel your website portfolio traffic and existing lists into an editorial newsletter in a way where the newsletter itself can become its own business.

Pre-sales have continued to go well:

I’ll be launching later this month, and have now decided the price will be $247 as I’m confident in the value I’m creating. But until then you can get access at the prelaunch price of just $97.

Check out The Newsletter Is The Business

Ok on to this week’s listings.

Cheers!

— Richard (@richardpatey)

🚀 Marketplace Listings

I look up each listing in Ahrefs and give a 📈 if 6 month organic traffic is trending up, a 📉 if it’s trending down, or 🫓 if it's flat.

I also take a quote from the listing page - these are not my words, do your own due diligence and/or use a service such as Centurica or DueDilio.

I then list a couple of 👍 upside wins for each listing from the Top 20 Upside Wins for Website Acquisitions insights report (in partnership with TreasureHunter) to apply to any new website acquisition.
