THE MARKET DIRECT
www.themarketdirect.com
No Reserve - just bid
This Website will make someone mighty rich.
No inventory, Completely dropshipping.
Proven Marketing strategy to the Buyer.
Over 900 existing customers
This is complete business. Not just a website.
About The Website
It is an ecommerce website. It is live right now. It sells about 800 different fast moving products to the public. The new owner will be responsible in taking the orders and then move over to the vendor and placing the orders to have the products shipped from the vendor to your customer. You collect the money even before you have the vendor ship the product. It is no risk. That is how 90% of the products sold on the internet gets delivered.
About the Business:
Unlike a lot of the websites people are selling here on Ebay, this is a solid business that sells actual products to actual people.No phantom ideas about some potential profit. I have about 800 fast selling items on the site. Some of the customers are going to be selling these items in their stores, on ebay, flea markets and other outlet. Some of them have shops and will continue to come back. Others sell the products on Auctions and flea markets. You simply dropship this products thru the vendor. The importer is both internet based and have 4 branches around the country.So the product gets to the consumer at lightening fast speed.
No inventory. No Worries.
If you are looking for a business where you have to do nothing and the money just keeps flowing in, this is NOT it. In this business you are dealing with actual people who are going around and selling your products either in their little antique shops in vermont, or in a flea market in Texas or on Ebay. So they depend on you. You have to do your part. And when you do that they will reward you by getting you even more customers. When they place that order, you must treat it with care and respect, no matter how big or small. Do your part and fulfil it immediately. Any item that is out of stock - roughly about 1 percent of all items, you must indicate on the website that they are out of stock. So they don't order it if they need it right away.
I don't want to discourage any buyer. But I want you to know that there is work involve in this business. Infact, I do not know any business that makes money without some solid work behind it.
Expect to put approximately 2 solid hours of work every single day. If you cannot afford that much time please consider another business and do not waste your money on this one.
What Work is involved?
(1) Maintaining the website. Adding all new products. Average of 7 new items a week. Deleting all discontinued items. Temporarily surpressing all out of stock items. This is critical. If not, people will buy those items. And they will be angry when they find out that they will not receive it on time. They'll ask for their money back and you'll loose customers. I don't know about you. But I never want to give money back.
(2) Placing orders. Just move over to the supplier's website and place your order. Give them your customer's address. And you are done.
(3)Taking orders by phone. And talking and emailing potential customers
COMPETITION
Like all successful businesses, there are always competition.
I will give you 3 websites that are the major competitors. You can visit and see how successful they are. And then when you figure the fact that my prices are better than their's with little advertising overhead, you will understand why this business will make you very rich, very quickly.
Ebay will not let me list the competition, but if you need it, just send me an e-mail and I will send them to you. I will send you the 3 competitors. I will also send it to the winner.
They are other competitors. But these 3 are the ones that is worth mentioning.The other ones are too small to make any major impact.These 3 you must keep your eye on.
Advertising
I have several places that I advertise this site for incredible R.I.O. The cost is minimal and the return is great. I can't list them here because it is against ebay policy but I will give them to the winner.
What you will Get
The winner will get the name permanently transferred to them.That domain name alone is worth thousands.The Winner will get the site, the design, any subscribed names and list all transfered to them.
Hosting at the current host is $9.95 a month. Or you can move the site to any host of your choice.
I will offer 2 hours - free telephone support to help you transit into the business.
During that 2 hours, I will answer any questions you may have. Perhaps help you process any existing orders.
I will show you how to manage the site. With no experience, you will grasp it in one hour.
I will give you the vendors/importer's contact info and how to make purchases etc...
The website is set up to accept Paypal and also Credit card by merchant account. If you have a merchant account, you can use your merchant account to process credit cards of buyers. If you do not have merchant account you may use paypal. These are all integrated into the site seemlessly.
Any sales that are made prior to the sale of the site but are not fulfilled yet, I will be responsible for. All sales that are made from the moment the buyer pays, will now be payed into the buyers account and therefore the responsibility of the buyer to both collect the payment and process the orders.
