Costs:
The cost of running the site is approximately EUR 300 per month. The expenses are as follows. Hosting; EUR 20 per month Domain Registration; EUR 110 per year e-Marketing: EUR 250 per month.
Profits:
I work on a profit margin ofRespond to this opportunity% on cost of sales of the products. Hence, net profits are approximately EUR 2,000-EUR 7,500 per month. The following formula is used to calculate net profit. Net Profits = (Sales* Profit Margin) -Costs.
Inventory:
Scimitar Electronics maintains no inventory, as orders are shipped directly from the supplier to the customer. This is possible as I can request a blank wrap with no stickers (i.e. no supplier stickers or details are attached to the package). This way the customer thinks that the goods are coming directly from Scimitar Electronics.
