Basic Info
Established business. Stellar reviews. Ready to go and start earning immediately.
I am selling my 5-star video production business with over 50 combined reviews on industry sites.
This is perfect for someone who already has a video production or videography business but does not have the longevity or reputation desired; or for someone looking to get started in a business that can be run with one or more people.
What’s the most difficult part of starting a service-based small business? Building your reputation. If you’ve ever thought about having your own video production company, this could be the start of new career for you. This business has been around for more than 20 years, is award winning and has all positive reviews. Enter the world of video and media production and hit the ground running immediately.
Turnkey video production business for sale. It is currently home-based but can be operated anywhere. This is a very lucrative business with 5-star reviews on The Knot, Yelp, WeddingWire, Facebook, and Thumbtack.

- Due 45 days after Payment 1
- Includes 20 Training and Consultation Hours
- One mock or real event walkthrough (again based on event and scheduling availability)

The Finances
As an educator, I have always had my summers free to run this business. In my busiest years, I have made anywhere from $35,000 to $65,000 in that few month stretch of summer. As a side business, you can make a comfortable second income. As a primary business, you have the potential to make a very comfortable living.
If it’s been so good to you, then why sale, you ask?
I work in education and I have always had my summer’s free to shoot weddings along with doing a few throughout the year. As I have become a little older (I am now in my mid-fifties), I have been looking to slow my life down!
