Radio Control Products Dropship Ecommerce Website
Asking Price: $28,500
Description
With the development of electric radio control model toys, the radio control hobby has grown tremendously. As prices have dropped and the technology has improved, more and more people have been getting involved. Realizing a business opportunity and with interest in the hobby himself, the owner developed a full functioning ecommerce site specializing itself to carve out a niche within this industry. This site sells a popular radio control product and all other related parts. With 99% of items dropshipped directly from the supplier, there is no real inventory to manage or store. Most of the vendors offer worldwide dropship allowing the website to reach customers across the globe.
The site has excellent search positioning allowing it to generate sizable traffic of nearly 200,000 unique visitors in the last twelve months and to amass a large customer database of over 4,000. While the owner currently spends about 10-20 hours per week running the business, it does require a full time owner operator to maintain and grow the site. It is operated from a home office, is easily relocateable and can be operated from any location with internet access. In addition to the website, its domain name along with several extensions, customers and vendor lists, the sale also includes an active Facebook page, Twitter account and YouTube account with several videos that have received over 23,000 views to date combined.
This is an excellent opportunity for a buyer to acquire an established, quality, ecommerce niche website with continued growth potential by applying proven efforts and through new marketing strategies!
