Did I say it was difficult? No.

However, unlike you I actually cater to this market. I know what it takes to SELL a turnkey solution. Hence my remarks to the O.P. in regards to making, and selling, turnkey sites.

People are lazy and unless you are providing EVERY aspect of that site. You are going to have a hard time selling it. So unless you are going to cover everything I just said. Then you are going to have a hard time finding buyers. Period.

Those who can do it themselves would do it themselves and not find a middle man to do it for them. If you are going to BE that middle man. Then you need to have a total solution in place if you ever plan to make a sale of any kind.
