This auction presents a unique opportunity to acquire an established and profitable business specializing in the supply of marketing databases in the UK. Since its launch in late July 2012, the website has attracted 1,831 unique visitors and generated $45,929.00 in revenue from 104 orders. The business focuses on selling UK business-to-business data, which will be included in the sale. The past 30 days alone have seen $20,000.00 in revenue, indicating continuous growth.
Operating from home with minimal overhead costs, the business offers gross profit as the data is owned outright. It runs on an easy-to-use, click-and-point website building platform that provides full support. Although the site offers additional services to the insurance sector, these have never been marketed extensively, with all revenue derived from database sales. New owners have the option to streamline the services offered.
Data updates occur every six months using a UK supplier, and the new owner will receive full supplier details. The cost for these updates ranges from £400 - £600. Primarily used for email marketing, the databases are integral to cost-effective direct marketing strategies. The market potential is vast, as the product is relevant to a broad range of industries.
The current owners are offering full support to aid transition, including details on suppliers, business operations, and traffic generation. Only serious buyers with available funds are encouraged, and proof of income will be shared with interested parties. Recent reports indicate a November revenue of $17,688.99, underscoring the business's ongoing success.
