This text outlines the sale of two established e-commerce websites specializing in action sports equipment. The sites are profitable, generating approximately $55,000 in yearly gross sales, while being inexpensive to maintain with monthly expenses of only $25 and zero debt. Established in 1999 and 2000, these platforms have maintained consistent revenue without requiring marketing efforts, thanks to their automation and targeted traffic. The industry they operate in, the surf/skate market, is robust with significant resilience and a loyal customer base.
The business's order fulfillment is almost entirely automated, requiring minimal daily input from the administrator, specifically only updating tracking numbers manually. A long-standing distributor manages the product delivery, ensuring business continuity upon transfer to a new owner. Profit margins are healthy, with notable profits on items such as surfboard bags and racks. The profitability is reflected in the detailed monthly sales figures from 2010, showcasing stability with no active marketing.
The owner seeks to sell these domains to focus on other projects, leveraging the capital for expansion into new markets. Ensuring a seamless transition, the current distributor has guaranteed ongoing fulfillment support for the new owner. The business represents a low-maintenance venture requiring only five minutes a day to manage, making it an attractive investment for those looking to enter the sports and leisure market. The package includes one year of customer order information, offering insights into over 600 transactions, and proof of sales via attached documentation.
