Would anyone buy a dating website?

I was wondering if i could sell my dating website - with no traffic though (i have not done any marketing) but it's having amazing new Morden interface + super fast, I'm developer myself.

Is it's possible to sell? Because recently I've seen people are only interested in SaaS or eCommerce

Built an AI tool that scores business-for-sale listings before you buy, looking for people who want to actually put it through its paces also buyers

Been deep in the business-acquisition space and got tired of manually digging through financials, traffic sources, and red flags on every listing. So I built a tool that pulls in listings aggregated across 20-30+ marketplaces (via CatchBuys — covers Flippa, Empire Flippers, Quiet Light, TrustMRR, and others, not just one source) and runs an AI analysis on each one:

  • Risk score (traffic concentration, SEO dependency, platform dependency, customer concentration)
  • Opportunity score (profit quality, multiple, growth potential)
  • A plain-English summary: top 3 concerns, top 3 opportunities, and a buy/pass recommendation

Basically trying to compress hours of due diligence grunt work into something that takes seconds, across way more listings than you'd normally have the patience to dig through manually.

It's still early, so I'm looking for people who are actually active in this space and want to put it to real use — whether that's just kicking the tires on a deal you're currently looking at, coming on as a co-founder/collaborator if you're into this space and want to build it out further, or if you're someone who'd want to actually acquire/license the tool itself down the line.

Open to whatever makes sense. Drop a comment or DM with where you're coming from and I'll take it from there.

Buying a Movie Theater 😱

Im in the process of trying to purchase a small, 3-screen movie theater in a small town. This includes the theatre, business, and all FFE inside. The building itself is in a beautiful historic dowtown & surrounded by 3 big colleges & is easily worth the purchase price alone. I’m looking at financing the acquisition plus working capital through a business loan.

My plan would be to keep my current full-time job for the first 1–2 years while I have managers run the theater, then eventually transition over if the numbers support it (I make $90K).

I have a TON of ideas to bring to the table to boost revenue/profit like: alcohol sales, memberships, later/earlier showtimes, increased concession options and thie biggest being local advertisements to play before the movies start while everyone is finding their seat.

If i get 50 businesses at $250 a month to play their add, thats $150K in just pure profit!

The biggest challenge is that I have very little cash available for a down payment, so I’m trying to figure out whether there are realistic ways to structure the deal through SBA/business financing, seller financing, or other sources without putting a huge amount of my own money into it.

I’ve never purchased a business before, so I’m currently talking to CPAs, lenders, and potentially an acquisition attorney.

For those who have bought a small business before: what am I missing, and what would you do first?

How to Privately "Hand off" / "Sell" an Instagram brand and all operational information

Hi all,

I'm wondering what the best approach is to sell a successful e-commerce brand with a strong instagram presence.

I have heard that the website "acquire" is decent but has potential of no leads.

I imagine a private sale would be the most ideal and optimum method but I'm not sure how someone would approach that or find the audience that would be interested.

Any leads would be hugely appreciated!
