I originally started the Cantana Incense Store because I recognized a niche in the market for these burners. There aren't a lot of stores selling them, and they have great margins so the business opportunity is there for a lot of growth and potential profit. Because it's drop shipping you don't need to hold any of the products either which is great.
The reason of selling this business
I was intending on running Cantana myself, but unfortunately life got in the way and I haven't been able to find the time to get it going and drive traffic. It's a beautiful store with cool products that could do really well so I don't want to just shut it down. If someone else has the interest and time to work on it, that would be awesome!
What's involved in running this business
Because the store is already created all the new owner would have to do is create ad campaigns, process orders and keep up with cool new products!
This business was founded:about 2 years ago
Time to run this business:approximately 5 hours per week

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
I would define and develop a target audience and create your ad campaigns. That's about it! Other than running ads I would also keep up with updated products and suppliers.
Skills to have
Nope! Shopify has some great free resources for learning how to use the platform and even free tutorials on how to run a business.

Verified listing data
The revenue and traffic data that you see on each listing is pulled directly from its Shopify account. This means that the data has been verified. Exchange reviews and monitors listings for thorough and accurate information.
Secure messaging platform
You will be able to communicate with sellers via a secure messaging platform. After you log in and request information from a listing, sellers are notified and have the ability to respond. When you are ready, you can make an offer.
Encrypted payment capture
Exchange and Escrow.com have partnered together to provide you with safe transactions that have bank encryption, making sure that payment is securely captured. Escrow.com ensures that its users pass verification checks before transactions can proceed.
Take time to inspect the business
Once you submit payment to Escrow.com and the payment has been secured, the funds are held until you confirm that all assets received are as negotiated. You can use the inspection period to ask the seller any extra questions about the business.
Safe store transfer
When the transaction is finalized, the dedicated migration team at Exchange will begin the process of making you the new owner of the store. Buyers and sellers will be notified via an email from the Exchange team once store transfers have been completed.
