High-Margin and Recurring Revenue Media Operations Business
Business Description
This listing is NOT SBA ELIGIBLE because it was carved out from its parent business in Q1 of 2025. The seller is seeking ALL CASH offers. A Quality of Earnings was completed in Q1 2025 and is available in the data room.
This company is a well-established media operations business with high margins and recurring contracts. Since 2012, it has been the sister business to a media development company focused on building Out-of-Home (OOH) media projects in partnership with Real Estate developers. As projects progressed, the seller recognized the need for someone to operate these OOH projects his company had built, so he decided to operate them internally. However, this business has never gotten the attention it needs to thrive.
The business's operations are streamlined. Although the company has an office in Dallas, TX, the owner lives on the East Coast. The seller's involvement is in client relationships and new business.
The financial performance decreased in 2024 because the seller focused on their main business. The average revenues from 2017 to 2024 remained around $1.3M.
Significant growth opportunities exist. The low-hanging fruit is actually focused on sales rather than just reacting to what is referred to in the development business.
This is an excellent opportunity for a buyer not dependent on a loan and looking for a high-margin recurring revenue business with lots of growth opportunities.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 13
- Employees
- 6 (4 Full-time, 2 Part-time)
There is one manager and three shift workers. Shift workers cover the contracts - Facilities & Assets
- The business currently operates in a coworking space and is on a month-to-month lease. Besides some computers, monitors, TV screens, and software licenses, the company is very CAPEX light.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The current clients are on rolling multi-year contracts for the media operations. The average tenure of a client is 5.6 years. It is complex for clients to switch to a new provider after the company has closed them as clients. The option for switching is for the client to start an operations group themselves. At a minimum, this requires
the client to hire 1-2 people plus equipment, putting their annual costs at approximately $100k+ per year. The fractional business model enables the company to not compete with this option. - Opportunities for Growth
- There is a lot of meat on the bone for growth. The business is a "sister" business to another company that the seller owns. The current contracts only come from referrals from his other business. There is no go-to-market strategy or direct outreach to find other clients. The low-hanging fruit is to execute a channel sales strategy with installers in target geographic markets (Times Square and the Las Vegas strip).
Real Estate
- Owned or Leased
- Leased
- Rent
- $2,000.00 per month
About the Sale
- Seller Motivation
- As part of a strategic refocus, the seller has decided to divest the operations
- Transition Support
- The owner is very willing and able to support and train the new owner. Support and training to the owner means making in-person introductions to clients, referring leads to the new owner, and supporting the transition of the business's operations. The current owner is not involved in day-to-day operations, so the ongoing operations are sustainable as is.
- Financing Options
- This opportunity is NOT SBA ELIGIBLE. All offers will need to be cash offers.
