Would you sell your site if you didn't want to?
None of my sites are for sale at any price, or so I thought.
So out of the blue, some dude contacts me to purchase one of my paysites. I call him back as a courtesy, although I have no intention of selling, and I tell him so.
But here is where it gets a little weird. Over a series of phone calls the offers get higher, to the point where its now a *very* large multiple of the monthy income.
I'd rather not say exactly how much, but far higher (in terms of months of sales) than anything I thought adult sites could usually fetch, or anything I've ever heard of here.
I've been in business long enough to have a pretty good BS detector, and I'm pretty sure the guy is legit. The guy did his homework before contacting me, had already joined as a member and downloaded just about the whole site. And his portfolio of adult sites is impressive. No mega sites or bangbus in there, but very nice indeed.
I'm really spinning over this one. I don't want to sell, and logically, I'll eventually recoup even more by staying the course over years.
On the other hand, its a fuck of a lot of money. And there is no non-compete clause in his latest deal, so I am free to start again from scratch with just some very narrow restrictions.
So what would you do? Is there a number that all sites will cave in and sell at? How many months sales would that be for you?
