Ep 383 How to Avoid Getting Trapped in a Low Valuation Industry: How Swag.com Founder Jeremy Parker Positioned His $30M Business as a Technology Company to Attract Industry Leader Custom Ink. Acquire a 7-figure domain for free, leverage blue chip client

In 2016, Jeremy Parker co-founded Swag.com to offer branded promotional products for businesses. Parker and his team developed a powerful online platform that enables customers to order products through their unforgettable website.

Thanks to Swag.com's innovative approach and memorable domain name, the company generated $30 million in revenue by 2020. However, when Parker began to explore acquisition offers, potential buyers viewed Swag.com as just a distribution company, which is typically valued in low single digits of EBITDA.

Fortunately, Parker met the founder of Custom Ink, who recognized that Swag.com was more than just a traditional promotional products business - it was a technology company.
