Business Story

Why this business was started

I first decided to start a business to teach my kids that if you have an idea it's possible to achieve it. We wanted to add an additional stream of income to our family to help improve our situation. Do some research, define your goals, and work to hit your goals. Look to others that have done this before, learn from their mistakes so that you don't make the same mistakes that others have made and shared. We initially found this basic business startup on exchange and have made many changes to improve the overall look and feel of the site.

The reason of selling this business

I simply don't have the time necessary to dedicate to this business. I am working two full time jobs and a family that all want my time. My teenage girls that initially spurred the venture have taken on more volunteering and jobs of their own limiting their time, I enjoyed the things I've learned in this venture. I would love to continue it or even do it again given more available time to dedicate to the business.

What's involved in running this business

Research new products, look for trends in the category and try to have a simple model. No need to over complicate the process. Find a good supplier, a good product with good margins, and make the product descriptions your own. I wanted to have transparency with my customers and let them know that the delivery time may on occasion be longer than normal in some cases.

This business was founded: almost 3 years ago
Time to run this business: approximately 3 hours per week

    Why this business was started: This store was originally purchased through Exchange so please be honest there. In addition, please try to make this more personal. A lot of businesses were started to generate additional income, so there’s nothing wrong with saying that! Please add more information about why this niche/product was chosen as well as the selling method. I think it's a lovely website and would do well, you can share that if you believe that's the case as well.

    Why use Exchange?

    Exchange is the largest and fastest-growing marketplace for Shopify e-commerce stores

    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.
