Business Model

Business-to-business (B2B)

The business sells shared and exclusive car-shipping leads to U.S. auto transport brokers. We fund our own ad campaigns and capture quote requests through ShipWise. Brokers can set up ongoing orders with their preferred daily volume and delivery schedule. Our custom-built CRM routes and delivers leads, then deducts the cost of each lead from the broker’s prepaid balance. Automatic top-ups let orders run week after week. In September 2026, repeat buyers accounted for 89% of billed lead sales. A separate profit-sharing partnership generates additional referral revenue.

Tech Stack

Wordpress
Stripe

Our custom-built CRM matches car-shipping quote requests from our ShipWise website to active client orders based on each client’s lead volume and delivery schedule. It delivers leads automatically and deducts the cost of each lead from the client’s prepaid balance. Stripe processes weekly card top-ups.

Growth Opportunities

Hire a sales team
Expand to new markets
Increase pricing
Increase digital marketing

The clearest growth opportunity is to sell more leads in U.S. auto transport. A buyer can bring on more brokers through the outreach and referral channels already in place and grow orders from existing clients. As demand grows, the buyer can increase Meta ad spend while tracking cost per lead and margins. The existing CRM already automates lead delivery and billing, so additional orders can run through the same system. That infrastructure also gives the buyer a head start in testing adjacent markets such as household moving.

Selling Reasoning

Starting a new venture

My co-founder and I are selling so we can give our other projects our full attention. We’ve enjoyed building the business and are proud to hand it over while it’s profitable and growing. The team already handles day-to-day operations, and we’ll help the new owner get up to speed with training, team introductions, and up to two months of transition support.
