[Hidden-tech] Price to sell a business

[Marcia Yudkin]

> I am considering selling a business that I own (BriefDating.com), and I

higher
> multiple than when calculating the price based a multiple of annual
revenue.

two or three ago, with massive detail.  Look it up on their web site or in
your local library.
