Store closed.

Dear YelapaPalapa customers and visitors in general: Due to time and resource restrains, we have decided to close shop for this business. As of today we will not be accepting any more orders for hammocks and related items, and as for all pending orders, they will be fulfilled promptly, we sincerely regret and appologise for any inconveniences.

My personal experience selling hammocks.

YelapaPalapa started as a small business idea 7 years ago and since its beginning it took off like a rocket selling thousands of hammocks to customers all around the world and since then has built a good presence on the Internet.

The story goes like this:

It all began with an idea of selling something online, something that could have a niche market and where competition was minimal, it had to be something of good quality that would create the minimal amount of returns and build customer satisfaction, it also needed to be easy to stock and handle, and most important of all, it had to fit in a USPS flat-rate box to save on shipping costs.

During a vacation trip to Mexico, while lying by the beach on a cotton rope woven hammock reading my book, I was approached by one of the locals offering me a hammock like the one I was laying on at a very decent price, I was intrigued, and the rest may I say it was history in the making.

Selling the Mayan woven hammock has been the best experiences I have had since becoming an online entrepreneur, it has been a breeze to manage, minimum customer complaints, easy to stock up, and most important of all great profits.

Today YelapaPalapa hammocks ranks at the top of most search engines with very popular keywords that form constant traffic for the website, if you are reading this you probably got here through a search engine keyword search.

Business for sale.

As I said before, due to time and resource restrain (we are working on a much bigger business), we find ourselves in the unfortunate situation of closing doors permanently. But before tearing down the well built empire we would like to offer it to another entrepreneur that is looking for a dynamic product that is easy to market. This offer would include the whole business including name, site, customer base, supplier contacts, and the search engine rankings.
