Business description
Turner Butler are delighted to be appointed as sole selling agents for this exciting business opportunity which has never been brought to the market for sale before.

This business is a product of today’s modern trend. With the ever burgeoning sales of mobile telephones and their connection to whichever service provider network is selected at point of sale i.e. Orange, Vodafone etc; the end user is then normally limited to using only that particular network which the handset is locked to. This business provides a solution to that situation.

At a point in time when the end user chooses to change from their chosen Network Service Provider, an unlock code for the particular make and model of mobile telephone can be purchased from this company’s Internet Website for a nominal fee. The unlock code is then entered into the mobile telephone in question and the ‘phone is now free to operate on any network of the choosing of the individual.

The business website covers a very comprehensive range of telephones and provides good value for money. The design of the website has been carefully constructed to provide easy and smooth navigation, thus creating a pleasant experience for its users, much of the website is fully automated. The website has also received good reviews from industry based journals.

The UK based server is hosted independently from the office location enabling you to access the server from anywhere in the world.

We are assured by the current owner that the business is very simple to operate and currently only demands an hour a day of operational commitment. This commitment could be expanded according to the new owners wishes as there is huge potential for further growth and profitability.

The company has been operating since early 2006 and is the brainchild of its Director who had gained extensive experience in the mobile telephone industry.

The acquisition of this company will appeal to a wide section of buyers looking for the freedom to operate a successful business from a location of their selection and yet with manageable time demands.

Customer Service:

Although the company’s customer base are serviced remotely, the Director has always applied the principals of good customer service, in dealing with any customer support issues that may have arisen. This factor is reflected in the good reviews mentioned previously.


Key Strengths:

The key strength of the business has been its ability to keep pace with the continual crop of new mobile telephone models which are continuously reaching the market, and servicing their requirement for unlock codes.

Employees: The company currently employs the Director only.

Location

Support & training
Full support and any necessary training will be provided during handover as part of a successful sale package.

Reasons for selling
The Director now feels that it is time to benefit a new owner from the challenges of initial start-up, in order to pursue other business interests.
