A Christmas Fire Sale: Two Businesses to Unwrap Before New Year’s
A men’s grooming brand and a patented eco-CPG investment — both motivated, both ready to move.

🎄A Christmas Fire Sale: Two Businesses to Unwrap Before New Year’s
Forget the turtledoves. This year, we’re offering two high-growth brands, a men’s grooming line and a patented eco-CPG business; priced to sell before the ball drops.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
’Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the market, not a creature was stirring…
except for two founders ready to make a deal.
We’re skipping the holiday fluff.
These are motivated sellers with valuable assets who want to close before year-end. That means aggressive pricing, fast timelines, and real opportunities for buyers who can move.
If your Christmas wish is a turnkey business with proven demand or a high-return investment with structural tailwinds, it’s time to start unwrapping.
🎁 HOLIDAY FIRE SALE #1
A Turnkey Men’s Grooming Brand That Just Needs a New Manager
Imagine finding a gift under the tree that’s almost perfect, but the batteries were put in backward.
This is a premium, 100% natural men’s body care brand with a rugged identity, a loyal customer base, and 130+ five-star reviews. The products work. The branding hits. Customers love it.
So what’s the problem?
The business is bleeding cash due to a simple but devastating operational mistake:
selling fees currently exceed revenue.
The owner is paying more to sell the product than they make.
This is not a demand issue. It’s not a product issue.
It’s a cost-structure issue — and it’s fixable.
📊 The Numbers (Jan–Nov):
Revenue: $21,205
Selling Fees: $21,875 (103% of revenue)
Net Loss: –$28,172
The Immediate Fix:
Auditing merchant accounts or shifting sales toward DTC can reduce fees to a standard ~15%, unlocking ~$18,000 in immediate value without changing the product.
🛠️ The Opportunity:
This isn’t a long-term turnaround. It’s a quick win for an operator who knows e-commerce.
Stop the Bleeding
Audit misconfigured Amazon FBA fees or payment processor categorization.Optimize Ad Spend
Reduce bloated 54% ad spend to a sustainable 25–30% by focusing on high-converting retargeting.Scale
Expand into boutique retail, launch beard-care SKUs, and build a subscription model.
This is a perfect stocking stuffer for an e-commerce operator who can spot a diamond in the rough.
The brand is built.
The demand is there.
It just needs someone to turn the lights on.

🎁 HOLIDAY FIRE SALE #2
The Gift That Keeps on Giving: A Patented, Profitable Eco-CPG Brand
This isn’t just a business, it’s an investment aligned with regulation, sustainability, and scale.
This is a patented, 100% biodegradable, compostable alternative to single-use plastic dog waste bags.
After a successful appearance on Shark Tank, the brand expanded into 2,000+ retail stores, including Target, PetSmart, and Walmart.
Now, with plastic bag bans and PFAS regulations accelerating nationwide, Pooch Paper is positioned to capture meaningful share of the $4B U.S. dog waste bag market.
The company is raising $500K for 15% equity to scale municipal and B2B distribution.
📊 The Numbers:
Investment: $500K for 15% equity
Projected ROI:
271% by Year 3
518% by Year 4
867% by Year 5
Proven Demand: Previously in 2,000+ retail doors

🚀 The Opportunity:
This is a ground-floor opportunity backed by clear regulatory tailwinds and an experienced founder (25-year Wall Street veteran).
