Niche Market Online Retailer For Sale

Business description

This online retailer of vintage lingerie and accessories was established in 2008 by a renowned hair & makeup artist. The business is only now for sale because the owner is unable to devote the time and energy required for further development. Her main professional work has grown to such an extent that she has now reluctantly decided to sell the vintage business as a going concern. The business is currently based near Brighton but could be run from anywhere in the UK.

The fully operational website has been professionally built and maintained, and now receives around 3,500 visits per month on very limited promotion and no paid advertising. The vendor believes that targeted online advertising will dramatically increase visits and sales. The site is currently hosted on a high quality UK-based ISP, and hosting for six months with unlimited bandwidth and full access is included in the sale. Also included is the primary .com domain along with a number of additional valuable website domains.

The business also owns a busy vintage group on Facebook with almost 8,000 members, and the ‘ownership’ of this excellent customer-gaining tool will be included in the sale. Furthermore, there is a high quality and valuable email list of 3,000 previous customers and interested people that can be used for promoting the business and direct selling. In fact, there would seem to be many opportunities for enthusiastic new owners to develop this fascinating niche-market business.
