ICONSPEAK

The founding story of our shop can be read in the initial blog chapter of the store-site. We are travel addicts ourselves and needed a solution for our problem. The store was then started for fun - and for the sake of it being so simple. We never imagined this to grow into what it has become. Now its time to hand this beautiful idea over to an ecommerce appassionata, while we have long started other endevours.

We are no ecommerce experts. We started the business as a fun project and learning experience - that then grew larger than ever expected. Now both founders have moved on, to new ideas, and its time to pass the store on - into the hands of an ecommerce expert.

Most of the products are print-on-demand, with a fully integrated and automated supply chain. Regular work is reduced to customer service inquiries. The marketing effort is up to the one running the show.

Ecommerce business, focusing on apparel, mostly t-shirts. Further products include accessories (drawstring bags, hats, phone cases). Apparel print on demand is integrated through Printful, shipping from Europe and US. The deal includes the store (shopify), the domain (hosted by [REDACTED]), the brand (incl. global trademark) and all graphic assets.

This store has a lot of potential left, but we are not the right owners to exploit it.

A future owner should focus on ecommerce optimized online marketing. Recent press features of our products and the corresponding update in sales shows the potential that this store & the idea behind still hold. We are happy to help any future owner with a best possible takeover!

A lot of work as been put into the store in the beginning. Meanwhile both founders have started other ventures and the store has been left alone mostly, as a side project with little to no effort.

This store was purely focusing on ecommerce potentials for now - even that, in a rather reactive manner with little to no marketing budget. Hence if you are proficient in online marketing, you have good chances to grow this much further than we ever could. Product lines have much potential too, to be further extended. Same goes for the offline and b2b world, where we never really left the barn and only focused on incoming inquiries.

Graphic Design knowledge helps, to further advance the products - is however not needed in-house. Extensive online marketing knowledge is needed, as is for every ecommerce business.
