Exit Analysis

This database tracks 117 E-commerce exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $125,000. Category matters more than founders expect: buyers apply different discount rates to a content business, a mobile app and a B2B tool even at identical revenue.

From founding to sale took 5.0 years. The deal closed through WordPress, one of 25 exits in this database that went the same route. Time to exit is a decent proxy for how built-to-sell a business was: shorter, cleaner processes usually mean documented operations and fewer surprises in due diligence.
