Today’s guest on the Niche Pursuits podcast is Greg Elfrink. Greg has a background in SEO, content marketing, website building and has been the head of marketing at Empire Flippers since 2016 — today, he shares lots of tips and tricks on buying and selling websites.
During the chat, Greg speaks from experience about the importance of due diligence and evaluating websites before buying them. He details the buying and selling process, shares his thoughts on the need to have a degree of flexibility, and offers tips on what the seller should do to be prepared before selling.
In addition to the above, Greg makes some fascinating points about growth NOT being as important as a lot of people seem to think it is. He also shares what buyers are looking for when buying a website — even more important than growth.
The interview concludes with Greg talking about the asset flywheel approach, which he has popularised in the website buying and selling space. The asset flywheel approach is mainly about wealth accumulation, and it lays out a strategy for achieving long-term wealth through website assets.
