The Success Story<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This FBA skincare brand sold for $220,000 in just over a week — that’s 2.2x the original starting price<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the intention of selling his five-year-old eCommerce skincare company, Charlie Rosenstein partnered with Flippa\u2019s powerful marketplace to list his eCommerce business<\/a> and assess purchase interest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In just eight days, Zone-365 Beauty had received 470 views, 11 inquiries, and two offers, successfully selling for $220,000\u2014 that’s more than $120,000 higher than the original asking price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was exceptional\u2026 I was expecting to close quickly, in about two to three weeks, but not in eight days.\u201d<\/em><\/p>Charlie Rosenstein, Founder, Zone-365 Beauty<\/em>.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is a competitive and challenging market to be in because each customer is different. You can\u2019t make a one-size-fits-all model, but we succeeded\u2026 we have many of the top-selling serums on Amazon.\u201d<\/em><\/p>Charlie Rosenstein, Founder, Zone-365 Beauty<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Pulling in a net monthly average of $18,000 profit, Zone-365 Beauty\u2019s business continues to thrive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFlippa made it easy\u2026 It is frictionless.<\/em><\/p>

The amount of traffic Flippa gets was intriguing and that\u2019s how I knew it would probably flip faster than a traditional broker method.\u201d<\/em><\/p>Charlie Rosenstein, Founder, Zone-365 Beauty<\/em>.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

And it did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never really used Flippa before and there\u2019s always a learning curve when signing up to SaaS services and platforms.
