The business provides a platform for Audio and Visual equipment hire companies to list and rent out DJ, sound, lighting, and other equipment. The website, built with WordPress WooCommerce using premium plugins, cost approximately AU$3,500 to develop and requires a monthly subscription of AU$90 for the rental software service. Currently, the platform works with one supplier in Sydney but is designed to accommodate multiple suppliers in various locations, taking a 30% commission on each transaction. It features live inventory tracking through a premium plugin, making equipment rental straightforward for customers.
Revenue is generated through commissions on facilitated orders. Consumers book equipment through the website and receive an email confirmation. Suppliers handle the logistics and bill the website, which forwards the payment after deducting the commission. The business is for sale due to operational challenges faced during lockdowns in its current location. However, it has potential for worldwide application or continued collaboration with the existing Sydney supplier.
This business is ideal for individuals experienced in managing Google Ads, affiliates, or those who already own or manage an AV or equipment rental business. Assets include domains, marketing materials, email and social media accounts, website files and content, and a Google Ads account. The business also provides post-sale support. Its social media presence includes 950 Facebook followers and a mailing list with 150 emails.
