It's been nearly 10 years since I first bought IceWraps.
After a long journey of facing Amazon's sudden fee increases, COVID and logistical challenges, I felt that it was time for me to take some chips off the table and finally sell off the last ecommerce business that I'm holding.
It's time for me to get some breathing room back, and move on to another project.
Takeaways
- Raising prices and cutting unnecessary costs helped turn the business from a loss to being profitable.
- Transitioning to AWD reduced storage costs significantly.
- When you have the mindset of being done and over a business, you might be willing to do all it takes to sell. However, it's important to maintain a two-way street and make sure you don't accept terms that seem unfair.
