Business Story
Why this business was started
I wanted to try drop-shipping on Shopify with Oberlo and I thought that a specific niche within women's clothing would be a great area to target, especially with the rise of Pinterest and Instagram. I have always liked Gothic and Steampunk stuff and I tried to source items which reminded me of popular films,TV shows and games, such as Game of Thrones, The Crow and others in the steampunk or fantasy genre.
The reason of selling this business
I decided to sell this business because I couldn't put enough time and money into it. I have a full-time job (which I am trying to give up) and I am writing a blog which takes up most of my free time. I have spent hundreds of hours setting it up and populating it with products, writing descriptions etc, but the next steps will be advertising it and growing a following for it on social media which will take more money and time than I can currently commit to this project.
What's involved in running this business
Shopify + Oberlo. Products are ordered through Aliexpress via Oberlo. Lots of products already added and edited, more will be needed eventually. Will need an email marketing system and social media platforms in the future.

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.
