The business in question began in May 2014 as a subscription box service and evolved into a versatile T-shirt company with multiple revenue streams, built on WordPress and WooCommerce. The decision to sell arises from a personal life change, as the owners are transitioning to a new venture to accommodate their new family member. The business, known for its unique printing method, allows for on-demand production, thus minimizing upfront costs.
Subscribers received boxes monthly, and additional shirts were shipped as ordered. The company sourced blank shirts from a local warehouse and collectibles online. The process, which includes a secret printing method free from ink or screen printing, will be disclosed to interested buyers who meet reserve prices during escrow.
In terms of financials, the company generated considerable revenue, largely through a partnership with a prominent flash sale site, where sales have shown significant growth from $3,300 to $8,300 over certain months. The business did not invest in marketing but leveraged sending review boxes to establish itself, maintaining a steady subscriber base. The SEO strategy ensures top rankings for relevant search terms.
Included in the sale are the brand assets, email lists, social media accounts, a substantial number of art designs, and creative content. The buyer inherits a business ranked #1 for specific keywords, equipped with a strong infrastructure for further scaling. Opportunities exist in various online and retail channels, only limited by the new owner's ambition. The transfer of the profitable account on the flash sale site to the new owner is also part of the sale, offering additional expansion potential.
