July 1, 2026 — curated links and takeaways.
1. What Is My SaaS Worth? 2026 Valuation Multiples From 520+ Real Deals
Stop using revenue multiples blindly. This guide shows why a $5K MRR business at 80% margins outvalues a $7K MRR business at 40% margins—the exact math that separates smart acquirers from deal-chasers.
2. Microacquire (Now Acquire.com): The Marketplace Buying SaaS, Ecommerce, and Service Businesses in 2026
Walk through a real $1.68M SaaS exit (general contractor tool, $35K MRR, 92% margins) and see how pre-approved SBA lenders and the Acquire.com platform actually move deals in 90 days or less.
3. The Acquisition Playbook: Portfolio Strategy Over Single Bets
Four acquisitions, one shutdown, two exits, one anchor—how a founder built a $120K MRR portfolio by focusing on onboarding improvements that reduced churn 20-30% year-over-year on the keeper asset.
4. Business Growth Through Acquisition: Systems First, Then Scale
The dirty secret: winners document ops before they acquire. Learn why systemizing your own business first makes acquired assets actually work—and why most acquirers fail without this foundation.
5. AI-Driven, Founder-Led: The 2025 State of Micro-SaaS
Integrations and referral loops now beat paid ads for founder-led micro-SaaS. If you're buying small, this shift matters—acquirable assets now have stronger organic leverage than pre-2024 builds.
