The site sells beautiful scented candles, handmade soaps and related gifts which are supplied by a very well established dropshipping company based here in the UK. The site has huge potential for the right person to grow, and with proper promotion will do very well.
It is fully functional and has a custom designed unique theme.
The site uses a professional, fully featured and extensive e-commerce shopping cart system which includes reporting and customer accounts. Google Analytics and FeedBurner newsletter and RSS integration. Unlimited product descriptions and images can be added quickly and easily via the control panel. Articles can be added to the article directory for extra promotion. Most credit card processors can be integrated including PayPal.
There are currently approximately 250 products listed on the site and a large scope to add more. The dropshipping company also supplies handmade gift baskets and offer the ability to make up orders to individual customer requirements. This gives a unique opportunity to make the site very personal. There is also an opportunity to develop the service for Wedding Favours, and again, these can be designed per customer request.
The site is running on WordPress 3.0 with extra plugins which include:
The custom theme, Social Networking links, Google XML sitemaps, Sitemap generator, Ping optimiser and many more.
I will also install SEO software, and Twitter and FaceBook account integration for the new owner.
I will supply you with a wide range of video tutorials and a PDF document to help you.
Webhosting is also included free for three months with the option of extending this with me. I have my own server so can offer very agreeable rates. You will also benefit from easy access to my support team.
The following domain name will be included in the auction:
http://www.soapandcandleshop.com
The potential:
There is HUGE potential to turn this site into a much bigger operation. Currently I don’t advertise or promote it at all.
The products have a high resale potential giving the site huge opportunity to draw repeat business and, with the right promotion, will develop very loyal customers that keep coming back for more. The site currently features a small range of products from only one wholesaler. If the new owner were to diversify and introduce more product ranges and manufacturers, the profit potential could easily be further increased. I have access to a huge database of wholesalers and dropshippers across the UK which you can benefit from.
The site currently only carries one main brand of candles and soaps from Watkins, but imagine being able to branch out and sell multiple brands of candles and soaps, and of course, beautiful bathroom accessories. There is plenty of upside to be had… if one has the TIME.
All the products are 100% handmade and nothing is tested on animals.
I will provide training and support for the first few months until the new owners are fully adjusted and ready to take this website to the next level!
This site is ideal for promotion on FaceBook and has the potential to be a very enjoyable business to run.
This standard of site normally sells for £500, or £300 for a site with less development. I have put it up here at £99. You may well be in for a bargain.
I hope I have answered most of your questions here but please feel free to contact me with any other questions you have or further clarification concerning of any of the above. Nearly forgot… the mark up on the products is very high, approximately 25+%. You will have access to the wholesale site where you buy at discount prices when you sell. The dropshipper accepts PayPal as well as Credit Cards.
