**Willing To Sell For The Right Offers - If No Decent Offer Is Received, I Will Continue This For Myself**

ALSO LISTED ON SITEPOINT

I am considering selling my new business to raise finance to pay off a debt and to get some funds together for an investment in property. The business has been running for less than 3 weeks and has brought a revenue of around $1550 in that time. I conservatively estimate by the time the month is through, the revenue will have risen to over $2000.

This is a turnkey business for sale, providing a service to online markets like the DP community. Business has been running for less than one full month, and has made in excess of $1500 (paypal screenshots available on request as proof). Total spent on marketing in the month has been $10 on a sitepoint listing to sell, so there is obvious room for profitability with a bit more of a push - if you know how to market services, this one is for you.

Markup in each unit is roughly 45%, which is good considering there is minimal work involved other than marketing and some tying together before sending to the customer.

Business is sold complete with contact details for two trained freelance staff - they do the work, and they know how to do it correctly. All you have to do is manage their workload, market the business, and take in the money (whilst remembering to pay the staff their wages - set at an agreed rate). Of course you don't have to use these staff, but it is better if you do at least in the short term because they're good. It's an easy business to run, although would probably suit someone with a little technical know-how when it comes to hosting, given that there is a requirement for a very small technical input and sometimes problems on the hosting side.

The buyer will receive not only all the relevant information to carry on with the business, but also a complete 'how to' guide written by me, letting you know the answers to customer FAQs and everything you need to know about continuing the success of the business. I will also provide a database of previous customers plus details of their sales, as well as any monies still owed from customers, or owed on a recurring basis.

This business also provides a residual income opportunity payable to the owner through hosting services - will transfer access to unlimited hosting account at Hostgator (around $10 a month - its your only fixed cost). I will let the buyer know who is to be invoiced, for how much, and when, so you can collect the money when it falls due later on down the line. From the existing business model, I think we would only be talking about $100/$200, but its still better than nothing.

I will also provide a couple of weeks of support to the buyer to smoothly transfer the business and to make sure you can carry it on without too many problems. It also comes with a website I set up to market the services, but that needs a great deal of work (maybe even completely redone) to make it a valuable asset.

This isn't really an auction - I'm more interested in offers. I have a selling price in mind although I wouldn't like to disclose that at this time. If I receive an offer that I think reflects the true value of this business, it's yours.

I hope I've made everything quite clear. If you need more specific details about the business model, I'm available on PM to discuss.

Other than that, I welcome any offers.

It is not a URL, although there is a website/blog included - very much a work in progress

Sales have been online through forums at present, rather than through a website.

Thanks

Before I bid I'd like to know what the business is.

I'm not asking for you to let me know your secrets or anything like that.

Simply, what field is this business in?

So your basically selling contacts to your staff and a how-to guide for the website?

Its currently not a business its carrying on an idea! Worthless!

What kind of idea makes $2,000 in its first month?

This is very much a business. I am selling the business in its entirety - are you concerned because there is no tangible asset, such as a website?

If a website were providing a service making $2,000 a month it would be valuable. If a business that makes its sales outwith a website makes $2,000 a month, why should that be different?

I am selling this business with exclusive contacts to staff I have trained, to my hosting, and to my product. This is certainly a business.

All other questions welcomed.

Good answer, its just a big risk with no assets!

It is a risk, but so is any business.

As far as assets are concerned, the product is an asset, and the information how to do it is an asset, as are the staff, and it does have a very underdeveloped website along with it.

I am considering 2 offers at the moment and will keep you updated with progress.

Is there much competition with your service?

Very little. There were a few others working at DP, but this kind of low-cost bulk provision isn't really contested at all.

Since I've started this, I have been literally run off my feet. I started doing it all myself, but quickly a backlog built up, because orders were coming in quicker than I could fulfil them. I took on the two staff, but even still it has been very busy.

I wouldn't worry about competition, because amongst the minimal competitors providing barely similar services, there is plenty of work to go round.
