information prior to investing. Latona's makes no warranty or representation of accuracy and no
liability (including third party liability) with respect to any error or omission is assumed by Latona's.
Are there any licenses, trademarks, patents or copyrights involved with the web property? Are these
included in the sale?:
NA
Are there any past or present legal proceedings involving your web property or operation? Do you
foresee any in the future? Please explain.:
No and I dont forsee any
Please provide a brief history of the web property: date of inception, date purchased if applicable,
changes and improvements, problems encountered, etc.:
We began in 2014. We opened our own facebook group and added customers to the group we sold
only based on recommendation or via our facebook page with zero advertising. This group currently
has 7600 people active. We then opened our website is September 2014 and used the site for
customers to make purchases directly. In September 2015 we began experimenting with paid facebook
advertising. If you visit the old version of our site here www.925silvercharmed.com this was how we
began. In May 2016 we upgraded our site with a more modern responsive look and in July 2016 we
underwent a rebranding to take us to www.jewellerygenie.co.uk Our reason for rebranding was 3 fold
a)we did not want to limit ourselves to sterling silver as the previous name suggests b) we were
considering the future and that Jewellery Genie was far more memorable c) we were thinking that
should we ever develop an idea unique to us this would be an effective brand name. At the same time
we were also building a seperate business unrelated to jewellery and this also increased hugely as a
result it became clear to us that we could not manage the volume of orders on all sites. As a
consequence in June 2016 we reduced our facebook adverts in the hope that it would reduce sales to a
more manageable amount. It had the desired effect. If we reinstate the original campaign sales will
follow suit- we simply do not have the time to do so. It has had to take a bit of a back burner with us
thinking that we will get around to spending more time on it eventually however sales on our other site
in electronics continues to gather momentum and we have reluctantly admitted that it would be better
to hand over this site to someone that has the time and dedication it deserves.
Is the operation seasonal? Does traffic or revenue fluctuate at specific times of year? Please explain.:
As expected we have increased sales around Christmas Valentines etc but for the most part sales are
good all year round with no major decreases at all-people buy whatever the season.
How many employees / contractors? Will they continue to work for the company after the sale? Please
explain.:
Just the 2 of us and we are family members. No one will continue to work for the company after the
sale. We do contract someone to do modifications to the site if and when we need them and he could
be recruited by the buyer if needed.
What do you see as the growth potential for this business? What would you do if you were to keep the
business?:
This business has huge growth potential. To begin with I would reinstate the original adverts and sales
would be immediate. It could be expanded into ebay and amazon with amazon fulfilling orders. Our
drop shipper has a fulfillment centre in the states and uk so expanding into various countries
including the states would be huge. We looked into developing SEO and this is something I would
definitely do if I were to keep the business alongside this I would mount a google advertising campaign
which I believe would be as effective as the facebook campaigns. Increase stock levels and continue
adding new products. Furthermore there is scope for wedding fairs and shows local boutiques as
stockists. Eventually leading on to opening a first flagship store.
Are there any major industry concerns coming up in the foreseeable future such as increased
competition, changes in products or technology, regulation, increased costs, etc. that a new owner
should know about?:
Currently in the UK and Europe it is my honest opinion that we do not have any competition some
particular items are sourced from the states and I have yet to see them in any store in the UK nor
online on Amazon or ebay. We operate with high margins and low outgoings. I do not foresee any
problems or concerns.
We use OPENCART jOURNAL theme and a basic opencart theme on the original site. The site has been
customized with several extensions to aid day to day running. Delivery note function sticky labels
