Profitable Directories

$300

A directory (like my one here) needs to sell 84 premium listings at $299/yr to generate $25,000 ARR (annual recurring revenue).

Most businesses with ARR sell for 4x on MicroAquire, which would result in a $100,000 sale. Add on the $25,000 you generated in revenue and that could equal $125,000 for building a web directory with just 84 customers.

In this course I cover the exact strategy I'm using to build and grow 30 directories to do just this.

You do not need deep technical experience to execute the same plan.

Here's what you'll learn:

  • Why I'm so bullish on directories
  • Examples of great directories making bank right now
  • How to build a directory yourself (naming, software options, design tips etc.)
  • Industries and markets to go after (and what ones to skip)
  • Growing your directory with SEO, interviews, social media & partnerships
  • Generating revenue via premium listings, display ads, partnerships and other options
  • How to win at sales - from finding leads to closing deals
  • How to sell a directory making $$$

Here's what's included:

  • Training course video (49 mins)
  • The sales emails I use to onboard new clients
  • Access to my private community with 200+ other directory builders
  • A huge list of tools I use to build and grow my directories
  • A list of awesome directories you can use for inspiration
  • Free updates for life
