Shopify Store Owner? 👇 We've sold over $10,000,000 worth of stores in the past 12 months 96% success rate 700,000 vetted buyers $2.1b acquisition budget Your big pay-day awaits... book a call to sell your store today calendly.com/khbrokers/sell…

most founders think exits happen when you decide to sell they don’t they happen when buyers are already looking right now, we’re sitting on $1.8m+ ready to deploy into ecommerce stores actively looking here’s what fits: – shopify stores – 4–24 months old – US market preferred – supplements nice, not required we can close in days most sellers wait too long the best deals happen when you’re not desperate yet dm me asap offering big referral commissions too

everyone is positioning their shopify store for a sale when they should be positioning for transfer. here's the framework that flips the switch in 90 days. step 1: audit your chargeback rate. if it's above 1%, that's your first problem. get it below 1%. this single variable can move your multiple up. step 2: stabilize your churn metrics. most sellers have volatile churn. document 90 days of stable data (under 15% monthly churn). this signals buyer confidence. instantly adds multiple. step 3: document your systems. everything in your head needs to be in a google doc. SOPs, supplier lists, ad account structure, customer communication templates. this removes founder dependency. step 4: clean your traffic sources. track every customer acquisition channel. document ROAS by channel. shows repeatability. step 5: organize your asset list. every domain, email account, supplier contract, payment processor. organized, accessible. step 7: ensure payment processor health. no disputes, clean chargeback ratio, full payment history documented. this is the last thing buyers check. the entire process takes 60-90 days. i've used it on 100+ stores. here's what happens: store doing $10k/mo with messy metrics: exits for $70k (0.7x multiple) same store with optimized 7 variables: exits for $180k-$250k (2x multiple) same revenue. $110k-$180k different exit price. your brain thinks positioning is optional. the market knows it's the only thing that matters. i stopped guessing and started measuring. client exit values tripled. i built the 7-variable positioning checklist that walks through each one with real examples. which variables matter most. which ones move the needle fastest. and the exact optimization sequence i use with every client.

@ecom_wizardK i've said many time before. the reason is because then people think "x" revenue means "x" sale price and then they have unrealistic expectations when coming to me

@ecomkane Why never talk about the Revenue/EBIDTA?

this 19 year old built a dropshipping store. 10 months later he sold it for $465,000 the store wasn’t perfect. high churn. average ads. what made the difference? nothing just the right buyer, looking at the right time some buyers buy for data & customer lists (very rate for dropshipping stores) but this seller just hit the jackpot

@heyitsromar yes but not crazy demand for them

@ecomkane Can you sell Canadian stores?

@Michaelvisn woman's health. anything fashion based has the least amount of desire with ecom acquisitions, thats what i have seen anyway

@ecomkane Niche? And how valuable in the market is a streetwear brand doing $150k monthly with repeat customers? 20-30% profit

@katie_cflow woman's health. i don't really know but they said they are buying for the data, feedback and customer lists. thats all they told me lol

@ecomkane do you know what niche the store was in? genuinely curious because $465k for a dropshipping store with high churn seems wild. was it the email list that made it worth that much or something else entirely?

my sellers now run from agency ad accounts (credit card, not topup) meaning their bm does not own the ad account, the agency does. so when the stores sells simply the agency will just move it into the buyers bm. the reason why buyers prefer this is because they know you as the seller can’t just kick them off the bm and u keep the ad account.

@ecomkane So if an acquisition is ever on the cards for a store the ad account needs to be in a dedicated BM? You can only create two BMs per profile though? Wtf What’s the solution for those with multiple stores?

if you’re selling a shopify store, buyers check these 7 variables before making an offer. - chargeback rate - monthly churn - profit consistency - clean meta structure - payment processors - asset list - refund rate move 3 of them and a $150k store can sell for $200k

@jaysonmillion yes ideally most investors want the whole BM included which if you run multiple stores under 1 BM that can get tricky for the seller. also things like automatic payments instead of agency top up accounts are preferred massively

@ecomkane Can you expand on the meta structure?

@dawsonecom what i meant is they want the bm included and ideally most investors value the cashflow so they don't want manual topup accounts. but you know best ofc Jim

@ecomkane buyers don’t pay +$50k for prettier ad account lol. they pay for clean books, proof it runs without founder, and no single point of failure (traffic/supplier/processor).

@MP1889128025683 some investors care, most don’t

@ecomkane Do they look at sales tax collection?

@glecom_ many things: 1. a lot of investors won’t buy if SP is banned 2. investors hate local APM like Klarna ect 3. prefer no more than a 20% PayPal vs 80% card split

@ecomkane @ecomkane what you mean with - payment processors?

@teachingsX I’m mainly selling dropshipping stores & private label stores with no proprietary so multiples / value are a lot less. The biggest exit I’ve been apart of was $3.5m+

@ecomkane You don’t have to answer this - But what’s the biggest exit you’ve handled so far and what were the details? 🤔 I’m just curious 🙂

I met a guy that exited for $300k last year with a supplement store. he knew how easily we can sell the biz. I could sell a dropshipping store for a 1-2x multiple. I could sell a DTC brand for a 3-8x multiple. because, i have done it 100x times, and failed 100x times more than anybody

@TheInfowiz don’t hate the player, hate the game

Everyone in the comments is congratulating for what ? Yes launch another to get gambling addicts to lose their life and savings And destroy more homes

@nichdo_ 7 months. he had ads running

@ecomkane was he doing 40k/m passively off js mrr no ads running? How long was the store up

i've sold this young 17 y/o guy's shopify store for $175,000 recently in a few days. he was doing $40k/mo mrr (insane churn) he positioned for transfer. documented systems. clean supplier tiers. tracked acquisition channels. stable metrics. there's a positioning framework that determines whether you get $100k or $300k for the same store. most founders don't know it exists.

@LorenzoGambard5 proper documented sops for the buyer which held massively. supplier offered same credit terms for new buyer as wel. All these things add up

@ecomkane he positioned for transfer. documented systems. clean supplier tiers. — can you explain better Wym with this three statements ?

@Michaelvisn was 7 months old and dropshipping so shush

@ecomkane $40k MRR for $175k? You scammed him basically
