Local Business for sale - suit a recent retiree

[Plough Man]

Established and successful locally based e-Commerce business for sale in a few weeks time as a going concern.

This business would ideally suit a recently retired person eg someone who wants to stay active and derive a steady income from their own home-based business. It requires very little physical effort and no great strength or stamina is needed so it could suit someone who is partially disabled. Only basic computer skills are involved for order processing and emailing responses using templates.

No selling is involved as all orders come in from the internet automatically. Order processing is integrated with the web site. Similarly labels & postage are automated with RM. and The routine tasks include packing, stock control, record keeping and despatches. All that is required is a commitment to the task in hand. Product and market knowledge and training will be provided.

The business is profitable and just under the VAT threshold. It handles a limited range of products that are non-seasonal, not subject to either obsolescence or fashion trends. Product range comprises one market-leading brand and other in-house products.

It has a fully developed website plus Ebay accounts. All Ebay accounts have Top Rated Seller Status (TRS) resulting in reduced fees. Likewise, discounts on PayPal and Royal Mail. Comes complete with registered trade marks, web domains and equipment.

The beauty of this business is that it can easily be stopped and started to allow time off for holidays. Daily & weekly work load can be varied to suit personal preferences.

If you are interested, please get in touch but only respond if you are seriously looking for a business of this type. No chancers or time-wasters please.

For an initial expression of interest, all I need is a PM with your first name only, contact number and a brief r?sum?. Then we can arrange to meet.

Note ? any detailed disclosure of the business details will be subject to signing of ?Confidentiality? and ?Non-compete? agreements.
