Business Story
Why this business was started
To create an additional revenue stream for my family, and to learn about running an online retail store. After testing many products and samples, I settled on this particular niche - as I was able to create some unique products that could only be purchased from my store, therefore protecting my margins and offering a unique selling proposition.
The reason of selling this business
As stated above, I simply do not have the time to invest anymore. My main job has become increasingly demanding, and I am often required to be away for travel. This has impacted my ability to service orders and fulfill within desired lead-time of 24 hours.
What's involved in running this business
Orders are fulfilled manually from home office/workspace. Physical goods are stored in local warehouse/storage room, with small inventory kept at home. Additional products are sold through domestic and international dropshipping partners, so orders are transmitted electronically once received. Some time & attention is required to set-up and maintain any paid advertising campaigns eg Google, Facebook etc.

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
I would definitely start by building out some automated email workflows and funnels. These always provide a great ROI, however to date this has all been manual/adhoc. I have simply not had time to develop automated processes.
Skills to have
Digital marketing would be a big plus, knowledge of Google & Facebook advertising etc. The business generates significant revenue through other online marketplaces without this however, so would not be mandatory.
