Firstly, I desired a business which meant I was my own boss, could control my work/life balance and of course the additional income.
But on top of the obvious reasons above I have a strong pull to educate and raise awareness about how we can live more sustainably. I also wanted to share my beautiful experiences with yoga and how it has helped my life physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
The reason of selling this business
My family is growing which has changed the path in life I was originally on when Raising Space began. I have an opportunity for a new business venture that will consume all of my time. Raising Space is not a lot of work but it needs dedication.
What's involved in running this business
Upkeep of website, eBay, Etsy and a third party online marketplace (if you decide to maintain).
Regular appearance on social media, Instagram and Facebook.
Currently we have some stock at a store in Brisbane (however this agreement will no longer be available with the sale of the business).
I highly suggest keeping a blog or regular mail outs going.
Adverting campaigns as deemed necessary. Fulfilling orders and organising shipping - happy to explain how we are currently doing all of the above.

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
My initial plans and goals for Raising Space over the next five years included; developing product lines, adding more product designs, increasing exposure at local marketplaces, focusing on wholesale for yoga studios plus collaboration with businesses who align with the vision.
Skills to have
Knowledge of the products can all be communicated to the right owner. However I would suggest also having a passion and interest for yoga, fitness, meditation, and 'eco-living' in order to target the desired audience.

Abbey R.Current store owner
I am a strong business development professional who has worked in the sales industry for many years.
A personal passion of mine is yoga, wellbeing and sustainable/eco living. This was the foundation Raising Space was built upon. This brand has developed incredibly over the past 2 years and has blossomed a beautiful vibe and loyal followers.
I am about to begin a new business opportunity and my passion project Raising Space demands more attention then I can offer unfortunately.

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.
