The business, established in June 2016, is an online platform selling women's accessories and other small items such as phone cases, pillows, and t-shirts. It was initially developed from a training course and soon turned profitable, earning about $7,000-$8,000 in net profit per month. The customer base is primarily female. The business is being sold to enable the current owner to purchase an apartment, and only the assets, not the company, are for sale. The asset package includes the domain, website, training course, Facebook Business account, multiple social media pages, and a mailing list with over 52,000 subscribers via MailChimp.
The business operates on a dropshipping model with suppliers located online, mainly sourcing products from China with e-package shipping, resulting in delivery times of 12-20 days globally. The management of operations requires minimal daily input due to existing structures and support from a freelance team. The business uses Shopify, leveraging Facebook advertising as its primary marketing tool, achieving a significant return on investment. Although SEO efforts have been minimal, further optimization and diversification in marketing could present growth opportunities. The business shows a gross profit margin ranging from 18-25% and a low refund rate of 0.82%.
The sale includes a detailed training course to assist the new owner in managing the site. There are plans for a 3-year non-compete agreement, with the seller offering 1-3 months of post-sale support. The business seeks improvements in customer service and supply chain efficiency to enhance customer satisfaction and reduce shipping times. The site is globally accessible without geographical restrictions for ownership.
