Business Story
Why this business was started
I am around pets since I was a kid, so I wanted to start something pets related niche. I wanted to start with dog supplies business but came across that the dog supplies market is fully covered by big fishes like Amazon, Petco, Chewy and few other big brands. I decided to do research on Cat Furniture businesses and came across there is a huge demand of Cat products in USA. The research I came across honestly blown my mind which I am sharing below. Percent of households owning Cats = 25.4% Number of households owning = 32 million and keep growing year by year Total number of Cats in United States = 59 million That was enough for me to jump into it but as it was my first venture, I wanted to start with something light without investing money in inventory, storage and marketing etc. I invested couple of months to find suppliers who had high quality and unique products for Cats with the warehouse facility in US, so I don't have to deal with 45 days shipping from China. After that I was good to go.
The reason of selling this business
Honestly speaking this was really tough decision for me as I was making great money by putting just 20-25 hours a week but one of my friends who just started a chatbots tech company in SF made me a really good offer so I decided to sell this one so I can invest all of my time into it. I also have 2 kids, so I was running out of time to manage or grow this business.
What's involved in running this business
As we all know how expensive it is to run ads on Facebook, Instagram, Google, Pinterest and TikTok and it comes with tons of competition and there is no guaranty of making sales. So, I decided to do it differently by selling my products on Etsy and it did wonders for me without even putting a dollar in marketing or ads. I have started selling on Etsy in middle of September 2021 and I did it till end of May 2022 and I have made $330K in sales which you will see in screenshots below and all I did with the help of Seo only. Note: I am not here to sell you my Etsy shop or store and also there is no way I can transfer or sell it to you. You will have to create your own new shop but with my upfront instructions, tricks and hacks which I will provide you can make same amount of money I was making in very short period of time. I am selling you my shopify store but you will get everything with it what I had when I was running my Etsy shop. Please read carefully Things you will get from me to start your Etsy business 1. A complete SEO of all 100 -110 products with fully optimized titles and tags which will help your listings to take it to the page 1 of search results within 1-2 weeks. A professional Seo freelancer charge somewhere $20-25 per listing to fully optimize the listings with new titles and tags. I spend around $3000 to optimize my listings to get these types of insane results and I will be handing over to you all the optimized tittles and tags included in this store price. 2. Professional images and banners so make your shop stand out from the crowd and your competitors. 3.

High quality professional products videos specially made for Etsy listings with high quality cameras. I have around 30-35 videos which I made specially for Etsy. Products with videos sells more than products with no videos on Etsy. By now you must be thinking that why I have to buy his shopify store in order to sell on Etsy. I can simply download the images from the website and copy product description and put it to Etsy and I am good to go. Well, it's not that easy because Etsy don't allow drop shipping and your shop will be deactivated in no matter of time and the whole plan will go into vain beacuse a one person can have only one shop in life. With the instructions, tricks and hacks I will give it to you after sale with that you will never have this issue and you will be able to sell for as long as you want on Etsy.
