Description

This site is fun, but I've been putting my efforts into other projects.  There is a LOT of room to expand with this one, but I haven't had the time to put into it. Therefore, I've decided to sell this business.

Tulip bulbs are a gardener's favorite year after year. With a good listing in Google or even Yahoo you WILL make sales! Tulips are a seasonal product with spring and fall being the high seasons.  Gardening accessories, fertilizer, and the like are highly profitable and the buyer would be smart to greatly expand this part of the site.

What you get with this great opportunity:

The Customer List: Names, addresses, and emails of everyone who has ever registered for GoodBulbs. Some have opted in to the newsletter. No newsletters were ever sent, but you can easily change that.

The site: The base technology is PHP/MySQL.

The site is powered by ZenCart and is currently set up for integration with Authorize.net. If you have an Authorize.net account, all you will need to do to accept payments is put in your code!  ZenCart also has many other payment options. The site design is a modification of the standard ZenCart layout.

Google Base Datafeed Generator: This plugin is installed. It generates a datafeed for submission to Google Base. If you have a Google Base account, you will be able to upload the feed so the products can appear in the Google Shopping listings.

Secure Server Certificate: You will get the remaining time left on the current SSL certificate.

Logo: You will get rights to use the logo and any banners/images on the site except the Authorize.net Merchant logo. Rights to that seal must be obtained from Authorize.net.

Post Affiliate Pro: This affiliate program software lets you run your own independent affiliate program! Right now there are only a few affiliates, but you can grow the program as much as you want. The software version is an older one, but it works perfectly. Note that this affiliate software WILL HELP you gain rankings in the search engines. Every Post Affiliate Pro link is a link to the site. So if you have a lot of affiliates, it could be easy to dominate the rankings.

The Databases:  All associated databases will be delivered to you. You will be responsible for installing them onto your hosting. These are MySQL databases that work with ZenCart and Post Affiliate Pro.

Wholesale Contacts: I will provide the names and contact information for the current wholesalers for the products. Note: these companies ship to the USA only. If you need tulips outside of the USA, you will need to find your own tulip suppliers.

Other Information: I will let you know the source of the professionally-taken tulip photographs. The pictures are free, but the source is not too well-known. As a bulb merchant, you will have usage rights that the general public does not.

Tulip Bulbs: If you are in the United States, I will pack up what is left of this year's bulbs and send them to you. You will need to bid at least $300 to get the tulip bulbs. The particular varieties will be whatever is left when the auction closes. Bulbs will be sent on an as-is basis.

Support: I will not be providing support beyond the delivery of site assets. I am a marketer, not a programmer; if you need programming or technical help, you will need to hire someone in that field. Note - I can answer some questions, I'm just not providing advanced "support" like a company or customer service department does.

This site will be great for someone who knows SEO well and can get it the traffic it deserves.

If you're sick of having reversals on things you're selling as an affiliate, or sick of merchants or networks trying to tell you how to do business, this is your perfect opportunity to get onto the merchant side and be the REAL boss!
