An established retail furniture site is up for auction, boasting an average revenue of $7,000 to $15,000 monthly, primarily generated from organic traffic alongside some paid traffic. The site yields consistent monthly profits ranging from $2,500 to $4,000, drawing an average of 8,000 organic visitors each month. Launched in November 2012, this website is backed by 11 years of standing, with verified video proof of its revenue and traffic statistics.
The total revenue from November 2012 to November 2013 was $136,405, with a total profit of $31,614. The owners have opted for anonymity in this sale to protect potential buyers from copycats, requiring a non-compete and non-disclosure agreement for complete business details. Currently, managing the business involves approximately two hours daily dedicated to processing orders and customer engagement, although further automation is possible.
While the site has not reached its full potential, particularly in terms of engaging with customers on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, there is a significant opportunity for growth. This business requires active management rather than being a passive income source, making it suitable for those willing to work alongside their day job or from home. Given the nature of the auction platform, personalized responses to inquiries are limited, but a screencast video detailing traffic and revenue through Google Analytics and a payment platform is available for further insight.
