Crimson Startups Ltd grows business website portfolio with Is4profit.com acquisition

Crimson Startups Limited, the company behind Startups.co.uk and Growing Business, is delighted to announce the acquisition of established small business website Is4profit.com.

Started by publisher Brian Jack in 2001, Is4profit.com has delivered independent information and advice for the UK’s small and medium-sized business community for more than a decade.

The acquisition, for an undisclosed sum, sees Is4profit.com join Crimson’s market-leading portfolio of business websites.

It joins Startups.co.uk, Growing Business, and MyBusiness.co.uk to enhance Crimson’s position as the largest independent content provider for the UK’s small and medium-sized business community.

Is4profit will be based at Crimson’s London office. Its weekly newsletter and feed of the latest news affecting small businesses will continue.

Additionally, Crimson will be looking to grow and enhance the number of guides and topics covered by Is4profit, covering business law, strategy, employment, finance, IT , sales and marketing.

Crimson’s founder David Lester (pictured above) said the deal represents a signal of intent. “We have an unbeatable group of business websites catering for the entire spectrum of the small and medium-sized business community.

“Brian Jack has put years of time and effort to make Is4profit an essential source of vital information for established small businesses needing to keep abreast of all the changes affecting them.

“We are delighted to be able to continue Brian’s excellent work and the Is4profit acquisition only enhances our position as the leader in this market. We’re determined to continue providing the very best help and inspiration for UK business owners operating in a space so vital to the nation’s economy.”
