A four-year-old online business focuses on selling filaments for 3D pens and printers, generating a monthly income of $2000 over the past 18 months. Key product offerings include a unique feature of three glow-in-the-dark filaments (yellow, green, blue) in each refill pack, sourced from a long-term supplier relationship. The business also offers a complimentary eBook with every purchase to inspire creativity, with an option for a second eBook upon sharing their email on the company's website. The majority of the customer base is located in the USA, complemented by a small percentage from Mexico, and enjoys a high customer rating of 4.6 stars. Operating under a registered brand, the business sees 90% of sales occurring organically, with significant potential during the fourth quarter due to the giftable nature of the products.
Included in the sale are the Amazon FBA account, a WordPress store featuring all products, active social media platforms, and the rights to two eBooks designed by 3D artist experts. The business collaborates with one main supplier in China, handling shipments directly to Amazon warehouses, occasionally utilizing third-party fulfillment for excess stock. The operational team consists of a virtual assistant based in the Philippines managing customer engagement, feedback, and social media, with the business owner investing limited time in customer service and order management.
Notable opportunities for growth include expansion into other international Amazon marketplaces and leveraging the demonstrated 100% revenue growth achieved between 2020 and 2021. The business, established in 2017, aims to enhance creativity through quality 3D filaments.
