Corey’s Quick Take: this one is aged, stable, and screams ‘easy wins’ to me. I don’t know what else to say so check it out for yourself!

EdTech Subscription Box – $259K Profit – Asking $890K – 3.4x
Listing Type (?): Solid

A 9-year-old subscription box business focused on DIY computer and electronics kits for aspiring coders and tech tinkerers. With 900+ active subscribers, a $320 LTV, and 42% net margins, this brand runs lean and generates solid profits with minimal marketing or staff.

✅ What I Like

  • 42% net margins with high retention and low churn

  • SBA pre-qualified and affordable entry price

  • Fully private label product line with several trademarks

  • Minimal ops: ~16–20 hrs/week and 2–3 part-time contractors

⚠️ Risks / Challenges / Questions

  • Founder-heavy operation (design, teaching, ops)

  • Little paid marketing to date—growth upside or untapped risk?

  • Physical fulfillment could limit scale vs. digital-first edtech

📈 Ways to Grow

  • Layer in paid ads + influencer campaigns (untouched so far)

  • List products/subscription on Amazon and other platforms

  • Expand into new product lines or adjacent verticals

  • Build content around the kits (courses, community, etc.)
