Selling My Bootstrapped SaaS Business

Can you give an idea of the multiples of X (i.e. revenue, Ebitda, etc) that you did consider? You mentioned 6x(monthly-revenue) was bad. But can you discuss the spectrum of what looked good/interesting?

(not asking $$$ .. just multiples that were presented)

Can't talk about my deal (see below). At the time I started discussions (early 2017) I had SaaS brokers tell me the "market rate" for SaaS was about 3-3.5x annual SDE (see post for discussion of what SDE is).
