Most agencies for sale need the owner in the chair. This one is built so the buyer does not have to be. Day-to-day delivery is handled by an established team of PPC specialists, with the 2 senior roles under contract, and operations run through a proprietary AI operations system covering account monitoring, campaign builds and quality assurance.
Trailing 12 month revenue is £529,453 with seller's discretionary earnings of £306,000, a margin above 55%. Every figure traces to statutory and management accounts, with a documented add-back schedule available to qualified buyers. Around 75% of revenue is billed in US dollars to US clients. Current trading is strong: July is collecting at the strongest pace of any month this year, driven by new client signings from the company's own paid acquisition funnel.
34 clients pay recurring monthly retainers, roughly 95% of revenue. Retention is earned through performance rather than locked in by contract, and the largest client is circa 10% of revenue.
The business generates a consistent flow of inbound leads, so the buyer inherits a sales pipeline rather than having to build one. The owner will personally train the buyer on the sales process during the handover.
The sale includes the full client book and retainer relationships, the operations system, the company website and brand, documented delivery processes, and a book that transfers as a lead generation asset. Full training and assistance can be provided.
Note the sale will be on a cash-free, debt-free basis.
Growth levers a buyer inherits: the established paid acquisition funnel that is producing the current signings, scope to add adjacent services such as SEO, Meta Ads and Local Services Ads across the existing client book, and price reviews across long-standing retainers.
Offered in the region of £995,000, approximately 3.25 times trailing 12 month SDE. A reasonably flexible deal structure is available for qualified buyers.
Reason for sale: the owner is transitioning into an alternative career and will be available for a structured, phased handover. The senior delivery roles are contracted and expected to continue after the sale.
For confidentiality the company is not named here. Further information, including the full information pack, is released to qualified buyers only, on signed NDA and confirmation of funds.
