The SaaS Data You've Always Wanted

Every professional focused on buying or selling companies understands the value of good comps.

But until now, reliable comps just didn’t exist for private, small-to-middle market business deals.

Finding them on your own is time-consuming at best, and frankly, often impossible.

Even the big data platforms don’t track companies that are bootstrapped (no fundraises to follow) and/or sell for 6 or 7 figures. And when they do, the cost tends to be prohibitive anyhow.

It was, until now, a big black hole.

But you play in that space, so you know that hole can be lucrative. You know there’s tons of opportunity when it comes to selling and buying under-the-radar online businesses.

And you also know you’d be even more of a force to be reckoned with if you had deeper knowledge of sales happening in the SaaS space.

That’s why we’ve compiled data and context around 40+ SaaS deals, shedding a light on private transactions you won’t find anywhere else.

By leaning on this report, you’ll:

• Gain insider knowledge on who’s buying SaaS businesses
• Have access to accurate comps so you don’t leave money on the table
• Better understand the mentality of founders looking to sell
• Save the tens of thousands of dollars you might otherwise spend on data platforms
• Do your job better than your competitors

Our report is spreadsheet-first, so you can use the data how you’d like. But unlike most data sources, we also provide context via a written story about each deal, so you can understand the nuances that led to those metrics.

When it comes to selling and buying businesses, we’re your secret weapon.

Our research analysts and reporters have collected this information by hand, scouring the internet for useful metrics and conducting first-person interviews with founders.

Information we dig up for each company* that sold:

• Who the buyer is
• Sale price or range
• Revenue or sale multiple
• Website traffic, email subscribers or customers
• Employees at sale
• Year sold & year founded
• Who founded the company
• Plus context on the deal, such as how they found a buyer and why the founder wanted to sell

*Most of the companies we cover are private, and some details are unavailable because of NDAs. While we can’t provide every data point for every deal, we can promise to arm you with information and decision-making power you wouldn’t have otherwise.

Yes, I paid for the @TheyGotAcquired media company exits report, but the info enclosed was ⭐️priceless⭐️. As a relatively new media operator aggressively seeking profitability, exit stories are always on the mind… but are always so hidden. Thank you, @alexisgrant and team!

Just picked up this report… 100% worth it.

So many inspiraing small(ish) media brands that have sold for 6, 7, and 8-figures. https://t.co/uDragEeNHf
