Business Story
Why this business was started
I was constantly looking for a niche product that has a strong fanbase and is unique. Next to my shop there's just one further shop, dropshipping those products. Competition is very low. When I placed Facebook advertising, I was able to reach CPC under $0.10. The product appeals to a specific target group in the homosexual category and is therefore very well selected.
The reason of selling this business
I’m looking to sell it because as I said my current status as a student won't allow me to be self-employed next to studying. Because I can't handle both I've to give this store up.
What's involved in running this business
You've to fulfill orders via Aliexpress. Our different suppliers in china have fast shipping times (e-packet) aroung 10-20 days. I never had an issue with returns because the supplier is very accommodating. Once a customer provided me a wrong adress and the package could not be delivered. The package went back to the warehouse and I got the money back from the supplier.

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
I would grow this store with Facebook ads. I would also consider microsoft ads and I would also try using google ads, but I'm more a fan of Microsoft Ads because the customers from duckduckgo and bing are much likelier to convert in this niche. You can also have collaborations with IG theme pages or famous people in the gay men niche, we tried using affiliate marketing which worked quite good for us.
