Hey there!

Some absurd data I read this week....

A recent Bankrate study revealed something striking: the average American needs $186,000 to live comfortably. Yet, Census data shows most full-time workers earn about $79,000.

That $107,000 gap isn't just a statistic. It's a stark reality for many. Thats huge.

unusual_whales @unusual_whales Bankrate has found the average American needs an income of $186,000 to live comfortably. Currently, the average full-time worker makes about $79,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. 4:47 AM • Aug 20, 2024 1256 Retweets 6971 Likes Read 622 replies

The above encapsulates almost fully why Im so pro entrepreneurship. Half the clients Ive helped buy a business really just are buying side hustles to help close that gap!

Buying the right online business can provide that crucial secondary income stream.

It's about leveraging existing digital assets to build wealth over time.

Ive found a perfect one to look at today, lets dive into it below.

YourPanama.com is a 20-year-old expat blog in Panama with a #1 ranking "for sale by owner" real estate marketplace. It's making peanuts now, but we see major potential.

The Growth Strategy: 3% Month over month growth would be conservative and more than possible. Here is a breakdown of how one could remonetize and grow this biz.

1. SEO Optimization:
   • Conduct a full SEO audit and fix any technical issues
   • Expand content around high-value keywords related to Panama real estate and expat life
   • Build quality backlinks through outreach and guest posting on expat forums and travel blogs
2. Pinterest Expansion:
   • Create eye-catching pins for each piece of content
   • Develop boards focused on Panama travel, real estate, and expat life
   • Implement a consistent pinning schedule to increase visibility
3. Monetization Optimization:
   • Display ads are there, but not being included in rev. Thats an easy win.
   • Develop more targeted real estate listings to increase conversion rates
   • Create and promote a "Panama Relocation Guide" as a paid product
4. Newsletter Growth:
   • Develop lead magnets (e.g., "10 Things to Know Before Moving to Panama") to increase sign-ups
   • Implement automation sequences to nurture new subscribers
5. Realtor Partnerships:
   • Reach out to top real estate agencies in Panama to establish lead-generation partnerships
   • Create a dedicated "Featured Properties" section to highlight partner listings
   • Develop a system to qualify and track leads for better conversion rates

By executing this plan, we're confident we can not only hit our 3% monthly growth target but ya probably can beat it, ahrefs shows lots of opportunity in the SEO space for example.

Revenue Streams and Projections:

Display Ads:

$30 RPM (Revenue Per Mille) Starting: 4,070 views * ($30/1000) = $122/month

Ending: 5,484 views * ($30/1000) = $164/month

Total for year: $1,727

Newsletter: $20 RPM, sent twice weekly (8 times/month)

Starting: (90 + 61) subs * ($20/1000) * 8 = $24.16/month

Ending: (90 + 858) subs * ($20/1000) * 8 = $152/month

Total for year: $1,256

Current Ad Model:

Starting: $82/month Ending: $82 * (1.03^12) = $114/month Total for year: $1,178

Realtor Partnerships: Starting: $250/month Ending: $250 * (1.03^12) = $346/month Total for year: $3,588

New Realtor Lead Generation: 10 leads/month at $5 each $50/month * 12 months = $600/year

The Math: Adding it all up: $1,727 + $1,256 + $1,178 + $3,588 + $600 = $8,349/year

That's an 849% increase from the current annual revenue!

Bottom Line: By year-end, this could be a $696/month business. At a 36x monthly multiple, we're talking about a potential $25,056 valuation. Not bad for a $3,500 investment and some hustle.

Over the course of the year, you'll have collected a total of $8,349 in revenue. That's money in your pocket while you're building this asset.

As always...do your own due diligence, the above is based off of what we see as an opportunity from the info provided in the listing and some light due diligence, not a deep dive. It just one of many scenarios that could play out and its up to you to do your own due diligence and see if this makes sense for you!
