Business Description
The short version: A holiday lighting company that did $780,000 last season plus a solar panel cleaning side business doing $106,000 a year — $886,000 total revenue with ~$300,000 in profit. $15,000 a month comes in like clockwork on auto-pay — $180,000 a year under contract before the season starts. The business runs 4 months a year. AI-proof, recurring revenue, key employees included.

The numbers:
$886,000 a year in total revenue ($780K holiday lighting + $106K solar cleaning)
$300,000 in profit ($250K from lighting + $50K from solar cleaning)
$15,000 a month on auto-pay — $180,000/year under contract ($12K/mo from lighting memberships + $3K/mo from solar cleaning)
~80% retention year over year
~500 residential customers + a large commercial contract with 3 years locked in
Full numbers available under NDA

The math broken down:
You buy a business that only runs 4 months out of the year. You pay yourself $120,000 a year for those 4 months of work. After 6 years, the business has paid for itself. Now your salary jumps to $300,000 a year — and that's if you do nothing to grow it.
4 months of work. The other 8 months? The solar cleaning business runs on auto-pay and you do whatever you want with your time.

This is how we built our software company. We had 8 months off a year. That's the leverage you're buying.

This is the perfect lifestyle business — work 4 months managing the lighting business, then let the solar cleaning business run passive on auto-pay for the other 8 months while you do whatever you want.

Why this is different from other businesses for sale:
Most holiday lighting companies make all their money in a 3-month window. Then they go dark. Crew quits. Phone stops ringing. Owner sweats and prays for a cold November.
This one doesn't work like that.

$15,000 a month is coming in every month on auto-pay. That's $180,000 a year locked in before October 1st. Your crew stays paid year-round. You can pay yourself a year-round salary. Banks look at this differently — predictable monthly money makes it worth more and easier to finance.
Cookie-cutter work. Easy to scale.

Holiday lights are simple, repeatable work — not custom installs. The crew follows the guide and hangs the lights. Every market we serve is in a warm climate. To expand, you add a truck, a crew, and a route. The playbook scales without expensive specialists or complicated systems.

Get an AI-proof business

Every week another job gets eaten by AI. Office work. Customer service. Writing. Design. People are losing their footing and don't know where to put their money.

A computer cannot climb a ladder and hang Christmas lights. A computer cannot clean a solar panel. The work customers pay for stays human.

What gets cheaper because of AI is the office side. Phone. Scheduling. Follow-ups. Billing. We built that to run on AI, so the new owner gets the upside without the work.
The work is AI-proof. The operations are AI-powered. That's the rare combination.

You're not just buying revenue. You're buying everything we built.

The asking price reflects what's already in place — years of work, real assets, real systems. It took us 8 years to build what comes with this on day one. (Full asset list under "Facilities & Assets.")

Why we're selling
We started a software/AI company. It now takes all our time. The lighting business isn't broken — the numbers prove that. We just can't run two things at once.

Who should buy this

Anyone who wants an AI-proof business with monthly money coming in. Anyone who wants the lifestyle of working 4 months a year and getting paid like it's full-time. SBA loans work here — the numbers support it.

If you want a business that pays you all year, that computers can't replace, and that gives you 8 months a year to do whatever you want — this is the one.

$15,000 a month coming in each month will change your life.

Serious buyers only. NDA before we share full numbers.

Market Outlook / Competition
Holiday lighting is a fragmented local market dominated by small seasonal operators who go dark 8-9 months a year. Most competitors have no recurring revenue, no systems, and disappear after January.

This business is structurally different: $180K/year under contract on auto-pay before the season starts, ~80% customer retention year over year, and an AI-powered back office that runs the operations cost-effectively. The work itself — climbing ladders, hanging lights, cleaning solar panels — cannot be automated, making this an AI-proof business in a category that's increasingly rare.

Combined with the solar panel cleaning side business, this is a year-round service operation, not a 3-month seasonal grind. That positioning is uncommon in the market and difficult for competitors to replicate quickly.
Opportunities for Growth
Sell more monthly memberships. Every new one adds to locked-in recurring revenue and increases the value of the business.

Close the warm Solar cleaning business leads. Already on the list, never called. Each one adds to monthly revenue immediately.

Sell to commercial customers. Strip malls, HOAs, office buildings — barely touched. The existing commercial contract proves the model works.

Expand the service area. Cookie-cutter work plus simple crews makes territory expansion straightforward — add a truck, a crew, and a route.

Add adjacent services. Gutter cleaning, pressure washing, window cleaning all use the same crew, trucks, and systems. Easy bolt-ons that increase per-customer revenue.
