E-Commerce Platform Investment
Pitch Deck

Why Now? The Market Gap

The current market lacks a multi-tiered e-commerce platform that effectively serves both small businesses (SMBs) and high-volume Enterprise Brands while optimizing for high-value buyers. You are solving the fragmentation issue where sellers must use multiple tools for different customer segments, increasing their operational friction and cost.

Focus on Seller Onboarding Process

• Sellers need better tools to manage tiered customers.
• Existing platforms are too general or too niche.
• The shift to curated online marketplace models is accelerating.

What We Do? Our Winning Model

We provide a scalable e-commerce solution focusing on high-LTV (Lifetime Value) buyers-Enthusiast Buyers and Bulk Purchasers-who drive higher Average Order Values (AOV). Our win comes from optimizing the seller mix, shifting from 60% Small Business in 2026 toward higher-fee Enterprise Brands (up to 18% by 2030) and Independent Creators (up to 42% by 2030).

Revenue Logic and Scale

• Acquire sellers at $150 CAC (2026), dropping to $110 (2030).
• Drive revenue via commissions (8.0% variable, $0.50 fixed fee).
• Monetize with tiered seller subscriptions ($19-$99/month).

Who Buys? Quantifying Opportunity

The opportunity is large, driven by high-value transactions. Enthusiast Buyers (25% mix in 2026) generate $80 AOV and 1.5 orders/month, while Bulk Purchasers (5% mix) generate $250 AOV. Our acquisition strategy focuses on lowering Buyer CAC from $20 (2026) to $14 (2030) while shifting the buyer mix toward these higher-spending segments.

Financial Health Check

• Initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) is $283,000 (e.g., $200k for Initial Platform Development).
• Fixed operating expenses start around $9,300 monthly (Office Rent, Licenses, etc.).
• We need a minimum cash buffer of $83,000 to reach profitability.
