The business, founded in 2011, has become profitable, generating revenue through web sales, phone orders, bulk orders from schools, and wholesale to retail outlets. Revenue streams consist of direct website sales contributing 42%, sales to schools another 42%, and remaining sales through phone and wholesale. Currently, the business maintains stock worth approximately AUD $50,000, dispatched upon receiving orders, and relies on three long-standing suppliers.
Growth potential is identified through increased advertising and website enhancements, such as better imagery and videos. Additional product lines like bedding and décor are prospects for expansion. A new owner is expected to leverage these opportunities for growth.
Primary customers include Australians aged 18-50, schools, and corporations interested in branded options. The company has a comprehensive online presence with strong SEO outcomes and effective Facebook advertising but limited other marketing activities. The potential for increased marketing efforts could drive growth further.
The business's profit margin ranges from 150% to 300% depending on product type with significant profitability achieved through minimal returns and organized operations. Running on a WordPress platform, the business requires 7-10 hours weekly for maintenance, covering order processing, website management, and customer interactions.
The new owner will be trained, and all operations are transferable. Supplier agreements and customer data are included in the sale. Post-sale support and a non-compete agreement ensure a smooth transition for the buyer. Key growth opportunities include product and market expansion, social media engagement, and corporate branding initiatives.
