Launched in 2016, this sticker and apparel business sells products to the American blue-collar worker demographic. Sales primarily come through the Shopify store. However, the recent addition of a TikTok Shop has proven to be a very strong new sales channel, accounting for 20% of sales—and that number is growing rapidly. The net margins are an impressive 30%. The seller receives an impressive 3.8x ROAS (return on ad spend) on Facebook and Instagram and 5x–6x on TikTok in today’s difficult social media advertising landscape. This business provides a buyer with multiple opportunities to scale the business in a large and easily targeted industry while controlling the supply chain.

The business first soared on green high-visibility safety shirts. Over time, the seller realized that hard-hat stickers were a great expansion opportunity. They have a catalog of hundreds of stickers, and this category has performed extremely well in recent years.

A small team handles all in-house production, ensuring competitive pricing, in a 4,000 sq. ft. space.

The seller and spouse primarily run the business alongside four employees: two who manage production and fulfillment full-time, and two who oversee email/ad campaigns and social media interactions part-time. All part-time employees are open to transitioning with the sale.

There is a very good opportunity for the new owner to grow the business immediately. First, on TikTok, a new owner who continues to add more products and allow the hundreds of TikTok affiliates to promote them would have an opportunity to dramatically expand this channel. The TikTok Shop generated $1M in sales on only two products in 180 days. Second, adding the entire product catalog to Amazon is a turnkey way to expand rapidly. Third, expanding the website offering into several new high-volume product lines that fit this brand could dramatically impact sales. Finally, increasing the advertising budget will easily create more revenue.
