## FAQ

### How do I get a valuation multiple?

Divide askingPrice by cashFlow for each deal, then compare by business type or size.

### Why is 'Open each listing' off?

The closed-deals list already shows asking price and cash flow, and many old deal pages no longer exist. Fast mode is about 10x cheaper.

### How much does it cost?

$3.00 per 1,000 listings, less on paid Apify plans. This example returns up to 500 listings, so it costs at most about $1.50.

### Can I get only new listings every day?

Yes. Save this example as your own task, turn on 'Only new listings' and schedule it daily. Each run then skips listings earlier runs returned, and you pay only for new ones.

### Are seller contact details included?

No. Names, e-mails and phone numbers are removed for privacy. Use each listing's url to contact the seller or broker on Website Closers.

### Can I export the data to Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Download the results as Excel, CSV, JSON or HTML, or send them to Google Sheets, Slack, Zapier or Make from the run's Integrations tab.

### How up to date is the data?

Every run reads Website Closers live when you start it, so you get the listings as they are listed that day.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/pshivam/website-closers-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
