This is a unique opportunity to purchase a pre-revenue business comprising a website set-up with specialist plug-ins for artist clients. The business is primarily a worldwide online art multivendor marketplace for Scotland-associated artists to sell their art. The business is offered on a fully relocatable basis and could be run from home or in an office, preferably in Scotland.
The owner has been working on the business for over 3 years, with all aspects of the website ready to run a successful company – the website also has an artist knowledgebase with all relevant articles covering around 60 artist user-guide articles.
Market research indicated great potential for the right owner(s) – the Scotsy.com website covers the art market only, however, the original plan includes the potential for sister sites that enfold a craft products website for crafters and an art and craft courses website for both artists and crafters. All SCOTSY sites can use the same Multivendor Marketplace WordPress software, which has been secured with a lifetime license purchase and included in the sale.
A comprehensive 23-page business plan with projected figures for a one-man operation is available upon enquiry. The company also has the potential to be operated by a partnership or a larger operation that could greatly increase turnover and profits.
The main business assets of the company include the 'Scotsy' Trade Mark, which establishes a distinctive brand identity (a play on words between Scotland and artist names ending in ‘SY’ such as BANKSY). The business holds ownership of 7 valuable website domains, with a focus on Scotsy.com, ScotsyCrafts.com, and ScotsyCourses.com - the domains have '.com' extensions in anticipation of potential Scottish independence.
Additionally, the company possesses a ready-to-launch website at https://scotsy.com, along with a bare-bones website https://scotsycrafts.com. The package also encompasses several lifetime licenses for website program plugin extensions and template designs, essential components utilised across the three core domains.
The business's logo and icon graphic designs are included alongside an Extensive Artist knowledgebase with how-to articles on 'Freshdesk' (a cloud-based software to facilitate customer support).
As this business is pre-revenue, there's huge potential to launch this business as desired by the new owner, organically or via various marketing channels, networks of artists, etc.
This could make a great bolt-on to existing arts & crafts sites, or a bolt-on to owners of existing e-commerce sites in similar sectors. Although the business model is based on a one-man venture, if the business was taken over by a partnership or a larger company, the profits would be considerably higher than the predicted.
The business' business plan will be highly profitable to a new vendor, with the opportunity to develop this business and grow it into an established Scottish art retail platform.
