In a market dominated by billion-dollar conglomerates, Swimline proves that hyper-specialization beats broad portfolios. With just 36 employees, this family-owned company manufactures one in every three pool liners sold in North America, generating $7.2M in revenue while flying completely under the radar of Silicon Valley.

"They own the plumbing of the pool industry—literally and figuratively—while most competitors fight for surface-level branding."

• Zero VC funding—100% bootstrapped since 1978
• Owns multiple brands (Solstice, HydroTools, Staghead Designs)
• 99% of traffic is undefined/US-based—no international expansion
• SEO strategy focuses on branded terms (620 monthly searches for 'swimline')

The most telling metric is their 4,300 monthly visits. For a $7.2M revenue company, that's a staggering $1,674 revenue per visitor. This isn't a traffic game—it's a conversion game. Their customers aren't browsing; they're ordering. The 'undefined' traffic (99%) suggests their primary audience is B2B partners who know exactly what they want and don't need SEO discovery. While competitors fight for 'best pool liner' keywords, Swimline owns the relationship directly.
