My Acquisition Targets: SaaS & Recurring Revenue Businesses
I’m actively looking to acquire businesses in this SaaS & Recurring Revenue space. If you run a SaaS, membership, or recurring revenue business and are considering an exit, this post will help you determine if we’re a fit.
This aligns with my Sell Me Your Business page, where I outline my acquisition criteria. Below is a breakdown of the types of education and training businesses I’m interested in acquiring.
1. SaaS (Software as a Service) Businesses
SaaS companies offer scalable, high-margin subscription-based software solutions. I’m particularly interested in:
- B2B SaaS Platforms – Software that helps businesses automate, optimize, or scale their operations.
- B2C SaaS Platforms – Consumer-focused software that provides productivity, entertainment, or lifestyle solutions.
- Niche SaaS Products – Industry-specific tools that dominate a specialized market.
- Marketing & Sales SaaS – Tools for lead generation, CRM, email automation, and analytics.
- Workflow & Productivity SaaS – Project management, time tracking, and automation tools.
- AI & Automation SaaS – Platforms leveraging AI for chatbots, automation, and personalization.
2. Membership & Subscription Businesses
Membership models create long-term customer retention and predictable revenue. I’m looking for:
- Content & Media Memberships – Newsletters, premium blogs, and online communities.
- Professional & Industry Memberships – Associations that provide ongoing value to niche professionals.
- Online Learning & Certification Memberships – Businesses offering recurring access to courses, workshops, and skill-building content.
- Health & Wellness Memberships – Fitness programs, meal plans, and mental health subscriptions.
- Tech & Software Memberships – Companies offering SaaS-style memberships for premium tools and templates.
3. Gyms & Wellness Subscription Businesses
Gyms and wellness businesses thrive on recurring revenue and long-term memberships. Ideal acquisition targets include:
- Boutique Gyms & Fitness Studios – High-retention businesses offering specialized classes and training.
- Hybrid Fitness Models – Gyms combining in-person and digital training options.
- Wellness Subscription Boxes – Businesses delivering curated health and fitness products on a recurring basis.
- Meditation & Mental Wellness Platforms – Memberships focused on guided meditation, mindfulness, and self-improvement.
4. Service-Based Recurring Revenue Models
Many traditional service businesses have successfully transitioned into subscription-based models. I’m looking for:
- Managed Service Providers (MSPs) – IT, cybersecurity, and cloud service providers offering recurring packages.
- Marketing & Growth Agencies – Agencies with retainer-based contracts for SEO, PPC, and content marketing.
- Subscription-Based Coaching & Consulting – Businesses offering ongoing mentorship, advisory, or fractional leadership services.
- Legal & Compliance Subscription Services – Firms providing ongoing compliance and advisory support for businesses.
Why Am I Acquiring These Businesses?
Owning a portfolio of SaaS and recurring revenue businesses provides several strategic advantages:
- Predictable, scalable revenue models.
- High customer lifetime value (LTV) and low churn businesses.
- Cross-selling opportunities between SaaS, memberships, and service-based retainers.
- Operational efficiency through automation and technology.
