Exit Analysis
This database tracks 67 Marketplace exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $31,750. 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 6.0 years. The deal closed through FE International, one of 7 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.
