Listing Details

Established in October 1992, this business owns the copyrights for 2 original books written by a famous fitness instructor. The author's name is synonymous with a popular type of exercise meaning the books continue to sell after being first published in 1934 and 1945 as demonstrated by the stable and consistent earnings over the past 4 years. A book distributor handles all the work for the English language sales channels making this a very passive business requiring 1 hour per week from the owner.

The top-selling book is rated 4.5 stars with 836 ratings on Amazon and 4.2 stars with 168 ratings on Goodreads. The majority of revenue comes from English paperback and ebook sales but in recent years foreign publishers have purchased the rights to publish the books in other languages. They pay royalties to the seller based on the number of books sold which has resulted in additional revenue. Roughly 1 new foreign publisher is added each year due to the rise in popularity of the exercise routine.
