Take Note was started as a result of researching several niches within the Bullet Journalling Hobby Niche ; a hugely profitable industry sector with very passionate creators and followers. All Stationary items have very good margins and the cost was not too high to make running test ads prohibitive so it seemed like a very good fit for a business model. I then looked to Google trends to see how popular the niche had become and whether is was set to continue that way; thankfully it very much was, so I decided to begin finding reliable suppliers to supply high-quality products to the store. (a list of supplier are included with the sale too)
After test products were ordered from the supplier to verify the quality, I began branding the store & social channels present today.
The reason of selling this business
I have taken the difficult decision to sell Take Note because I am currently in the process of building my digital branding agency full-time and cannot dedicate the time & resources required into the store to take it to the next level. The store shows incredible potential and now just needs more good Ad creative & a decent budget to make lots of sales on the high-margin products.
What's involved in running this business
The shop is good-to-go and has a lot of love poured into designing & creating something that not only looks special but is commercially sound. The business just needs someone who wants to take things to the next level.
During the creation of the website I have done the following:
✔️Designed, branded & built the entire website.
✔️Hand selected & test ordered products from our suppliers.
✔️Created custom product descriptions for each product.
✔️Imported REAL reviews for each of the products.
✔️Created custom logo.
✔️Grew instagram social channel organically.
✔️Made successful orders, all with happy customers.
✔️Built a good subscriber list to re-market future products & offers.
✔️Created a list of working influencers.
✔️Created Facebook Ad creative (videos, copy & images)
✔️Run successful Facebook follower competitions with great engagement.
✔️Installed many essential apps to the store (Oberlo, Kit, Shopify Reviews etc)
In terms of day-to-day activities you will only have to fulfil orders Ali Express via the Oberlo app & respond to the occasional customer queries.
The next step is to continue to refine the businesses Facebook Audiences and create Ad campaigns to bring in more sales volume, and continue to add more products from our trusted vendors. (List included with sale)
If you have good knowledge of running Ads, you will be very successful with Eightfold and have a fantastic brand to promote to customers all over the world.

Seller‘s Advice
How to grow this business
I would recommend putting more emphasis on creating more custom content for the website such as product photos & imagery for the site. A suitable budget for ads should be decided then scaled accordingly using the provided target interests.
Skills to have
Good knowledge of facebook advertising would be helpful but I can provide some great resources for learning them yourself if required. Good copywriting skills are will also great when writing product descriptions for new items you add to the store.
