    Hi everyone,

    I am currently wanting to sell one of my own personal favorate website.

    This website www.Seeds-For-Success.co.uk has been running for almost 13 months now, and over the past 2 months I have made £1,000 actual net profit from this site per month.

    This site has been selling a very high quality set of gardening items including, Heirloom Vegetable Seeds (very very popular), General Garden sundries and wild bird care products.

    However as I am currently taking on a new job this site must go as I already have to much work on. This site has been selling to both UK and American Buyers so could be run from the UK of US.

    When buying this site you will recive the website, domain , 2 years hosting, the list of wholesalers used and ther current small mailing list and I will help you for the first few weeks to

    If you would be intrested in buying this website buissiness please PM or post on here offers and questions

    Thanks​

    http://www.seeds-for-success.co.uk

    We also have our own unique range of 'creative plant labels' which are a great seller

    Hi Adam

    A few questions -

    • Do you have stock or are you dropshipping these items?
    • Where is the traffic coming from - is this PPC or is it all organic (erm..no pun intended..!)
    • How much traffic does the site currently get?
    • Do you have a price in mind?

    Thanks

    Kyle

    Hi Kyle,

    We currently stock all products here (doesn't take much room at all)
    Much of our traffic is coming from Forums but we do use PPC
    I am unsure of the actual traffic, sorry
    I would like offers as I am wanting a quick sale

    Thanks

    Please post proof of revenue.

    Also worth noting is that your pages don't seem to render correctly in Opera.

    hi,
    how much time are you spending per week on this? also, how much inventory do you have, and how much would be required to seed a new owner's supply, so to speak?
    also, do you have any proof of income and traffic?
    thx,
    m

    I have reduced the asking price to $750 as I have no proof of earnings as I use my PayPal account for all my sites

    I am spending arround $225 per week round about.

    We usually carry at least 10 packs of all seeds (we order almost weekly) and we have 150 varieties at the current time but our suppliers offer thousands of varieties

    Thanks

    The BIN is $750 as I have no proof of earnings which is a great price but I can't run it anymore

    I spend $225 from December to May each year (main selling time) and about $180 the rest of the year but the profits are always very high

    I spend around 1-2 hours daily with orders and usually spend 1 hour posting on forums to which is not nessary really :D

    Thanks for your PM, I am sorry but I cannot sell for $500 as I am making that in 2 weeks.

    You could incoperate Google Adsense or afilicate links to add to the profits

    Thanks for your questions

    Is the money spent on advertising or on inventory? I don't understand what you're spending it on. And your main selling time is Dec to May, but the past two months (outside your main selling time if I understand you correctly) you made 2000/month in profit? Is that correct?

    Thanks,
    JH

    Hi Adam,

    You first mentioned spending $225 per week. Did you mean per month? PLease post or PM net profit per month. Is your supplier in the UK? Are there any issues with someone from the USA owning this site?

    Thanks!

    Hi the $225 per month is spent on both advertsing and the inventory, much is on the inventory and we do a little bit of advertsing with Google ad's

    It is correct that over the last 2 months that I have made $2,000 net profit per month which is brilliant for the time of year and is dramatically expected to rise between December and May

    I use more than 1 suppiler and use suppliers from both the UK and US so their would be nothing wrong with running this comapny from the us :D

    Thanks
