Fast Growing eCommerce Business in the Appliance Parts Niche – Over 50% Net Profit Margin

Asking Price: $300,000
Description

Front load washer and dryers are becoming the norm in North America replacing their older top load cousins.  Not only are they more space efficient due to their stack-ability, but they also use less energy, water and detergent. Unfortunately, due to the high RPM’s they operate at their bearings tend to wear out sooner. After years of refurbishing appliances, the owner of this business discovered that there were two or three particular parts that were the main cause of product failure and in tandem developed a simple method for isolating these parts for easy replacement in the most common washers on the market.  With the success of his refurbishing business, the owner decided to test selling the actual parts on eBay and the results were tremendous.  After posting and selling these parts on eBay, he built his website next and later expanded further by setting up an Amazon store.  

Today, this internet business provides high quality part sets to repair these household appliance machines offering the largest selection available in the U.S. and Canada.  Sales & profits continue to grow with profits up 47% in 2015 over 2014 and up 22% for Jan-Feb in 2016 over same period in 2015 while also continuring to achieve excellent margins with Net Profit Margins of over 50%.
 
In addition to its third party marketplace stores, the business includes a total of 37 specific domains and associated websites as follows: 
• 1 main website
• 8 similar named domains pointed to the main site
• 1 customer support domain pointed its “How-To Video” page
• 27 Fully functional part number specific websites
 

This business is successfully operated by one owner working about 20 hours per week.   With most of the inventory readily available at the supplier and only a small amount stocked on hand, this business is run from a home based office, is easily relocatable and can be operated from any location with internet access.  Product inventory is 100% in-stock with the current value of inventory on hand held at the owner’s home office at about $600 which is included in the price.  With the business selling its products through three sales channels: its own website, eBay, and Amazon, the owner has been able to generate a great income with minimal time commitment.

 
As an established business with growing sales & profits, excellent net profit margins, homebased, turn-key operations that is fully cloud based, this internet business is an excellent acquisition for a new owner to continue to enjoy its success in a growing do-it-yourself industry with lots of room for further expansion!
