Description

Why are we selling?

We don’t have time and resources to update and maintain this website because we’re heavily investing in another business (also in the financial sector but has nothing to do with software development and distribution. We’re not planning to get involved in this industry in the foreseeable future.). This requires all of our resources and funds available. The money from this auction will go 100% into marketing of this new venture.

What is this auction about?

Unique automated Forex trading software (robot, expert advisor, trading system) that is capable of making passive profits trading the foreign exchange market. The most important fact: this software has proven its potential various ways, but what is completely 100% unique and no one else does this because this is the ultimate proof that a product works or not: we have a live traded account with investor login available and EVERYONE is able to login and watch real time how the system trades and makes money!

We have a legitimate, registered company behind this business and of course an invoice and every other legal paperwork can and will be done of this transaction!

What is included in this auction?

• Exclusive reseller rights
• Complete source code and documentation
• 6 domains: trendstuffer.com, trendstuffer.com, .biz, .info, .net, .org, trendstufferS.com, tsforexsystem.com – they were registered in Feb. 2007, PR4 primary domain!
• Complete website. 
Wordpress based, recently introduced 34+ languages automatic translation, Google is starting to index translated pages, we expect the search engine traffic to double from local searches in the coming 2-3 months because of this!
• Organized, moderated (checked for dupes, non valid, etc.) member database with high willing to buy again next or new versions.
• Official forum based on IPB previously located on investeroid.com with 500+ members.
• ClickBank domain tsforexsystem.com was registered this summer, we have a few affiliates there also but we did not really put any energy into that. That solution is a potential goldmine, look at how other scam software sell on that site. Now because this is a proven, working solution I’m sure there would be no competition on CB if someone put energy into the marketing.

Why is this a good business opportunity?

There was insignificant marketing, so there is high potential for growth. There were never any ads on the site, so you can sell other related products and/or generate AdSense revenue (Forex niche is paying out very high). With this product you’ll have the definite edge over other sellers, this was proven various ways. The user db, which includes highly targeted, ~1500 willing-to-pay members that are interested in the Forex niche in itself is a gold mine, just send out an e-mail with another product and you’ll generate tons of sales. Absolutely inexistent on black market because in the past everyone received a personal package!

TS VIP Trading Club

We prepared a subscription based community for the next owner: Invision Power Board based, exclusive community for a monthly fee of $9.9 (right now). With news and analysis section this can be a huge hit in no time. $9 a month is nothing for traders, you just have to market this opportunity and one should expect 2-300 subscribers in a month or two. The trendstuffer.com domain is also a good marketing place because of its targeted audience.

Quick facts

• $90,000 profit in 02.2007-10.2008
• Site works on autopilot (integrated payment system, goal tracking, product delivery)
• Buyers from organic search engine traffic, two forums and very(!) light AdWords ads
• This means there is a high growth potential with little efforts
• 2-3000 unique visitors per month, once it was 8000+ because of a campaign
• Organic visitors growing steadily, look at the charts
• Introduced to ClickBank marketplace in July 2008 brought in $1500 profit in 2.5 month
• Domain, site, community available since January 2007
• TrendStuffer.com domain genuine PageRank 4
• No existing use of long-tail keywords SEO and article marketing etc., completely untouched methods for easy and rapid further growth
• Complete business transfer can be done in 1 day
• We deliver all website templates in PSD, Flash source, etc.
• Analytics account can be shared, please send PM with your Google account, name, company name, website address and phone number in the PM. Thank you in advance.

Revenue and expenses

$90,000 profit in 02.2007-10.2008 most of this can be authenticated on PayPal and CB, etc. but we won’t be able to show those who paid with wire transfer (for obvious reasons).

8 domains: $50/year (registered at GoDaddy, free transfer!)
Two hosting subscriptions: $8.58/month
SSL: $29/year
Total expenses: $ 181.96 per year

Demo version
You can ask for a time limited demo version in PM. Please state your name, company name, website address and phone number in the PM. Thank you in advance.

Transaction security

We have worked out a way to ensure maximum protection of both parties. This can be negotiated of course, but the basic idea is as follows: use of an escrow payment system, then we’ll split the payment into four parts, so 25% each. Each will be released continuously after the completion of the following steps: 
1. 25% - Site design in PSD format, sliced, Flash sources. Investeroid.com forum full site access, including database. 
2. 50% - Clickbank site access (tsforexsystem.com), with the domain transfer!
3. 75% - Full access to the main website (trendstuffer.com), the user and newsletter database. You can then overwrite the Paypal, Moneybookers, etc. payment methods to your company’s addresses, and start selling the package. 
4. 75% - When you have received the items listed in point 3, you release the 3rd payment, and then we will transfer the main domain trendstuffer.com and all of the remaining domains. These three (and a half) first steps can be done in max a few hours. 
5. 100% - Released after the first 5 sales. We will send out the packages for your customers, this way both of us can keep track of the sales without the need to have access to payment processors.
6. After the whole transaction has been completed (100%) we will provide you the files needed for unlimited distribution. 
This way you can ensure that it is a real business you're buying, you don't risk, we don't risk. We will be using escrow service, so the money will be safe. Because of the last point (6) you will be able to see that the product really sells, and you will only complete the payment after you have received your first 5 sales!
We are willing to meet personally to do the transfer! We're located in Europe, but we can fly over to most countries (for US customers: NY would be the meeting place) to complete the deal if needed. Payment still will be Escrow of course!

Further business opportunities

Important because of business planning: it is possible to make a trading Signal System based on the TrendStuffer. You can find hundreds of trading signal providers, just google “forex signals”. It’s a _very_ prosperous business, because you can reach every subscriber via e-mail, SMS, IM, etc. And best of all, they can trade with any software they like, even the regular over-the-phone way, because they only receive a message to go long or go short on XY and that’s all! You should consider this option also; it’s a huge opportunity!
Also sometime during the first quarter of 2009 MetaQuotes will release MetaTrader 5, and that will be a good reason to sell the same software with a few upgrades to the existing customers again! I believe they won’t release a new one (MT6 or so) in the next 5 years or more. The MT4 has been around for 5 years also!

    jlarson18: we post in different forums, put up a few posts on the site itself to have search engine rankings. That's all right now. Because there are insignificant expenses, the income is the profit. 3-4 hors _a week_! There's a detailed users guide, FAQ, etc. everything is pretty straightforward.

    kinitex: yes, it has been posted once before.

    I think only the marketing skills are in play from now on. A Forex or programming expert is not needed anymore.

    "Also sometime during the first quarter of 2009 MetaQuotes will release MetaTrader 5"
    What will be the cost to upgrade to MetaTrader 5 or how does it work?

    I would also like to know

    - the work involved to upgrade to MetaTrader 5?
    - A monthly Revenue,Expense,Net Profit total for 2 years
    - What do these mean? "Exclusive reseller rights + Complete source code and documentation" - this is very important. Does this come ONLY with RESELLER rights, or with ALL rights? I see that you are now selling the source code, but I don't quite understand what good this is if you only have reseller rights. Please explain.

    thanks

    Where are you getting $4k per month from? You definitely are not making that much from the images you posted.
    In september you show ~$2200 from paypal. And the clickbank monthly income is only a few hundred.

    PayPal October and November 2008 UPLOADED. Check.

    I don't about MetaTrader 5 yet, as soon as they release it and MQL5 (the programming language) we'll know more :-) Usually the cost of one professional programmer for an hour is $100, I tell you in advance that possibly it will be possible to get the conversion done in a few minutes or so...

    ronabr: not reseller rights, but all rights, you're right. (no pun intended)

    carbod: we have other payment processors like Moneybookers, wire transfer. Also, IF it was only $2200 per month I think this would still be a pretty good investment for anybody.

    Guys, let's not forget that the domain and tons of quality backlinks, PR4, organic search engine and referral sites traffic is very decent! You can sell other Forex related products _and_ services on the website, we have a member database of ~2000 paying members that you can e-mail your other offers, etc. Within a month or two this site could bring in $10-15k per month without problems, with only a little marketing effort from the new owner!

    cuchichi: I see you posting the same question over and over again, but I think it has been adressed already. For the sake of avoiding misunderstandings here's an excerpt:

    "3-4 hours _a week_! There's a detailed users guide, FAQ, etc. everything is pretty straightforward."

    (And a more detailed answer to make sure everything is clear for everybody:)

    Now if you'd like to flood with SEO articles the website, make tons of posts on forums, blogs, exchange links, social post, etc., generally internet market the product and service, that's not included in the 3-4 hours, obviously. This is how much time actual support and maintaining the site takes away from our time right now (3-4 hours a week).
    It is not enough of course to market the product correctly, that's the main reason why we're selling. Again, I would like to underline that the problem is that we don't want to put in any more resources into the site (neither human and/or financial) because we need to focus on our new project, which has just launched.
