Business Story
Why this business was started
The store was started in July 2019, however, my success story goes way back to 2018...I was always passionate about online business and making money from the comfort of my home. When I realised the power of e-commerce I made a full commitment. I watched hours of content on branding and studied countless successful, multi-million brands in order to see what is that secret sauce behind their success. While I was learning I also identified a product that solves a huge problem in the society and decided to start a store around it. It was the very first day of launching FB ads when I realised just how powerful and impactful the the store can become. The store has been profitable from day 1(!) and even with all the PPE campaigns and different testing, the lifetime ROAS of the whole ad account is 3+ROAS.
The reason of selling this business
I have 2 reasons to sell the business.
1) I am still a student at university and having to work for my parents at the same time gives me little room to truly scale the store to its full potential. I could automate everything and still consistently make ~$30.000/month+ but at this time, I am confident in my marketing+branding skills enough that it is better for me to cash out, quickly finish my degree and start a new brand in another niche (see point 2).
2) I am simply not that passionate about the niche. Passion for the niche means nothing in the short-term if you are just dropshipping but if you want to take the store to a 7-8 figure business, passion is crucial - it is that extra effort when researching the industry, extra hour every night spent on thinking about the future of the business that counts. These moments gradually stack up and in the long-term, this is what makes a difference . Sky is the limit for the store but I cannot take it there, it deserves someone who can give it full attention it deserves.
What's involved in running this business
You can outsource 90% of the tasks (fullfillment, customer service,...) and focus just on the things that matter the most, the big picture - this means advertising and growing the company (establishing new partnerships, branding,...)

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
Foundations have been laid down - a profitable business that brings in consistent sales. Now it's time to build the first floor - I am in the middle of negotiations with fulfilment centers in the US and a Chinese manufacturer who will private label the product(s). If everything goes well, shipping times will go down to 2-5 days while costs (even with private label and fulfilment fees) stay the same! Consequently, the price can be increased without any dip in conversion rate. On contrary, customer satisfaction rate will soar resulting in more organic traffic and brand recognition.
Doing this will allow to scale the store to six figure profit months by the end of 2019, easily. However, that is not the end. Since the product is in an evergeen niche and solves a huge issue, you can work with experts/celebritites in the niche to take the business to a whole new level! This is where my vision for the store is.
BONUS: I never got around to do email marketing for this store so there is a lot of money to be made there if utilized correctly.
Skills to have
If you want to continue making $25.000-50.000/month profit, you don't really need any particular skills, not even FB advertising since I will teach you everything. However, if you want to scale the store to a multi-million dollar business that stands out and helps people change their lives, you will need to have some previous experience with branding and management. I will personally ensure that you have everything needed to guarantee the future success of this business but you have to have the mindset right, too.
