OPERATIONS

We generate revenue by affiliate recruitment and also organic search traffic. We estimate at this point it's about 85% organic and 15% affiliate. The software is $99 one-time payment, $39 per month or $29 per month for 4 payments. We typically process 2-6 orders per day on average. Of course we have some days that are more and some days less.

We spend about 10-15 hours per week on average running the platform keeping everything up to date, answering customer questions, etc. As far as payments go, all that is automated so the most demanding part of running the business would be the website updates/upgrades and the customer service inquiries.

A typical day is a random check for support tickets processing customer requests, troubleshooting problems with the customers ability to use the software, making any necessary changes to the platform as needed.

What do you see as the growth potential for this business? What would you do if you were to keep the business? 

We see tremendous growth opportunities for this business and eCommerce. Data is showing a 78% growth for eCommerce through the year 2020 which will make it a 1.7 trillion dollar per year industry.

We have already positioned ourselves as one of the leading solutions for eCommerce research with would be Shopify business owners. This business could be expanded beyond Shopify into the other solutions such as Wordpress, Magento, and related.

The room for growth is staggering and with the right people to take over this business, it will be hard not to be successful as we have laid the ground work from being in the trenches through the toughest part of growing a business, which is the first year. We pride ourselves in picking niches that are becoming increasingly bigger and bigger and time moves forward. This one is no exception. Online eCommerce is the future as big box retail is dying at a fairly rapid rate.
