A business is re-listing its offering after previous auction attempts did not result in a sale, due to a misunderstanding by a potential buyer regarding financial figures. The potential buyer withdrew during the inspection period because they mistook gross income for net income. The corrected financial figures show a gross income of $95,000 and a net income of $51,000. The sale involves a business that offers a digital theme, but internal conflicts among shareholders have necessitated the sale. The assets included in the sale are the business's domain, source code repository, notes, and future development ideas, with an option for the buyer to assume control of the existing server. The business highlights the potential for additional revenue through customizations and installations, and their lead developer offers to assist with integration and development for the first month post-sale. Inquiries are encouraged via private message. Additional revenue streams mentioned include license key sales, theme sales, and hosting affiliate income estimated at $500 per month. Traffic sources are primarily organic and through affiliates. The owners intend to facilitate a quick sale after attempting to sell for three months. The terms of assistance and revenue opportunities are emphasized to appeal to potential buyers interested in digital themes and related services.
