Project Overview
An e-commerce store selling developer-focused merchandise that:
- Has been operating for 5-6 years
- Currently generates around $400 monthly in revenue
- Previously reached $1,500-$2,000 monthly during a period of full-time development
- Currently being wound down with remaining inventory being sold
The project experienced challenges with scaling and founder burnout, ultimately leading to the owner returning to full-time employment and preparing to transition away from the business.
