Business Story

Why this business was started

We own 4 dogs and each of them have their own personality. Our dogs have always been big fans of bandanas, and one day I decided I was going to make some myself from scratch. After failing miserably with a sewing machine, I found a vendor who was willing to make them, but they also had a wide variety of products our designs could be printed on. That was when Preppy Pawz went from being a bandana company to a full dog botique.

The reason of selling this business

Preppy Pawz has been an idea I have been growing for over the past year, but with my full-time job, I do not have the time needed to expand it to its full potential. This brand has been a great learning experience about my limits as a person.

    Seller‘s Advice

    How to grow this business

    Preppy Pawz needs an owner who has the creativity to increase the online ad experience. The printed dog accessories business is ripe for someone to take a visually appealing and aggressive approach to draw in new customers.

    Focusing on new designs, better marketing, and customer engagement is where this brand will see tremendous gains.

    Skills to have

    Future owners should have an understanding how people care about their animals. Pets are a big part of many families now. Pets play a large part in lives now and people are starting to share their pet experience more outside the household.

    I am a recent graduate from the University of Louisville, where I studied finance. During my time I toyed with the idea of starting an online business, and over several attempts I eventually settled on Preppy Pawz. During the week I am a commercial real estate agent and focus primarily on multi-family assets.
