I have discussed the advantages of direct dropshipper relations over relations with dropshippers listed in the directories that thousands can get access to. Read the below dropship business for sale description to get feeling of exclusive dropshipper relations value…

What you are likely to enjoy is also the scope of the guy’s business – 25 dropship websites with properly considered legal and tax issues – he runs his business in the name of some European offshore company that allows him not to pay profit taxes.

I call this advanced dropship approach when people build it on a large scale – $2 000 000 turnover over 4 months with $400 000 in profits – would you doubt if dropshipping business model works and can be VERY profitable after that? It is neither easy, nor cheap to start and run a dropship business of that scale, but definitely is worth the efforts.

He dropships beauty products, sporting equipment, apparel and more – so it is not necessary to focus on dropshipping adult products, video games, cameras, books or DVD’s to make good money with e-commerce.

Description:

This is a 2 year old dropshipping ecommerce retail business and can be operated from any country in the world as long as you have internet to check email.

When setting up the business I worked full time but the last 3 months i just worked 1 hour a day.

The employees handle 99% of this business, i have set it up so it runs with very little work from the owner.

We have workers handle building websites, customer service, advertising, SEO and data entry.

No technical skills are required. All my knowledge will be transferred to the new supplier.

I will provide daily support for the buyer for the first 6 months and longer if needed.

The business sells retail products on websites and dropships retail products to the buyer such as Sporting equipment, clothing, beauty suppliers and several other products.

We have an exclusive agreement with our dropshipper and he has agreed to deal with the new owner.

Having an exclusive agreement with our dropshipper makes the business very secure and I expect growth in 2009.

We have also spoken to the credit card processor and they have agreed to process payments for the new owner.

The business bank accounts and company registration is located in Europe in a tax free country, we do not pay taxes on profits.

I can transfer the registered company and bank accounts to the new buyer or we can set up a new company for you, I will pay these costs.

You do not need to be in USA to buy this business, it will work for anyone.

Reason for sale:

I am getting married on March 26th and will be taking over her families business, i would hope the full business sale would be completed by that time.

I currently have a low offer of $250 000USD from my dropshipper but i am wanting more then that.

The business includes 25 websites and a full business plan for expansion.

This is the perfect business for someone wanting a business with very little work and a great return.

Revenue Details:

Revenue is earned by sales of products that are sent to the buyer.

This business is all retail selling actual items such as t-shirts to tennis racquets to beauty products.

Traffic Details:

Traffic comes from a number of sources.

SEO, PPC, Paid banner advertising and a number of other techniques.

Snowmobile parts and accessories – do not think that it is the product category that gets much demand and traffic online. Though competition is likely to be low, I would definitely research and think hard before buying or starting this sort of dropshipping business

We have listed big scale dropship business and not, but one should clearly understand that despite the product category you will need to do the same amount of work mostly (research, advertising and promotion, on-site work, customer support, etc) and rewards might be quite different.

The below project could be an addition to your portfolio of dropshipping businesses, but I would not build dropship business around this project. Browse possible product categories – I am sure you will spot more lucrative niches.

Description:
Sportsmen Express offers a large selection of camping gear, hunting gear, firearm accessories and law enforcement equipment.

I’m selling www.sportsmenexpress.com for the sole reason I do not have time to take it to the next level. 95% of the business is totally automated and you don’t have to do anything, it’s that 5% customer service that I don’t have time for. We are partnered with a Sporting Goods supplier that “blind” drop ships all of our orders. If you’re not familiar with the term, blind drop ship just means our supplier put our company information on the package so the customer has no idea it wasn’t shipped by us.

Please note that if you want to continue selling sporting goods from the current supplier, you must set up an account with them. This requires a Retail Sales Tax Certificate and setting up an AHC Direct Debit account with them. I will provide serious buyers with the contact information.

In August 06 we invested 20k to have the website completely redone with many automated features to help us manage the business and promote the website. Active Media (www.activema.com)was the company that did the work and SE is listed on their featured projects portfolio. The website is php based and runs on a linux box with Apache.

Website Features:
Sends Confirmation Email to Customer & Admin when order is placed.
Sends shipping confirmation email when order is shipped.
Google Base/Froogle Feed generated and uploaded weekly. (15,000 products in Google Base)
Sitemap generated weekly (over 19,000 pages indexed in Google)
Auto Out Of Stock Notification- Customer can request to be notified when an item is back in stock, website sends email automatically
Ability to send promotional emails to customers (3500 customers listed in database)
Ability to set up discount codes & promotions.
Setup customer groups for discounts.
New products automatically downloaded into database from supplier.
Apache Rewrite installed so all keywords are in every products url.
Ability to set keywords, description for each product for SEO.
Website has a Forum, but is currently turned off due to no time to control the spam.

Many more features that I will be happy to show a serious bidder via phone call guided tour.

We currently do around $5-6,000 a month in sales with ZERO advertising. Profit runs around 15%-20%. You have the ability to set the markup for any single item or category to whatever you want.

Expenses:
The website runs on a VPS server though WiredTree.com for $89 a month. There is an 800 number I will tranfer to you through gotvmail.com that usually runs $30 a month if you want it. SE has a Yahoo Directory subscription that is paid until July 08 ($299).

Potential: If your savy at website promotion and know how to drive traffic, this website has a ton of potential. I never promoted the phone number on the website as I wasnt available to take phone orders. If you put the phone number in the footer and had someone available to take calls, sales would increase dramatically. I have received numerous emails from potential customers saying they didn’t buy because they couldnt find the phone number.

We do not have a BIN in mind, though would like to at least get back what we invested in the websites makeover.

Also included in this auction is the domain name sportsmAnexpress.com, which just redirects to SportsmEnexpress.com

Revenue Details:
The website currently does around 5-6k a month in sales on average. December blows that out of the water with 10-12k but that is not the average. Our profit margin is between 15-20% which can be adjusted to any level. With no advertising profits are around $600-1000 a month after expenses.

Traffic Details:
90% of the traffic is organic from search engines, 85% is from Google.
