[USA][SALES][6] Startup chemical company seeking marketingwebdev.

Hi, I'm a chemist with a day job in pharma, and I have been running a chemical startup on the side since 2020, with 2 friends: one handles 2 websites of ours + amazon + our b2b platform, and the other handles sales, I handle product development / formulation, labeling+photoshop, website, SEO, and sales. We did 50k in revenue last year, and 374k in revenue this year. Of course, in commodities revenue =/= anywhere close to profit, our profit margin is 25% before paying our sales team of 1; after payout our margins are 10-15%. There are several avenues I would like to explore with our chemicals but we haven't been able to fully grow as my original partner's day job has gotten more demanding and he expects a child in February. I am in the process of buying him out. You would ideally be fixing and creating: -our website sucks and has minimal SEO; no way to calculate taxes and sync with Quickbooks - adding new products to our website - automating processes that are timesinks for us - 2 other website we'd like to launch. We also need to create content for these websites, build a subscriber list, build our instagram, and have a nuture and marketing campaign for all of our current and potential customers. I am open to paying cash and equity, but am leaning towards equity with quarterly disbursements after we hit a certain revenue / profit goal. We are also in talks to have a majority share of our company acquired by a larger chemical supplier, who would help us with our profit margins and bankroll our chemicals / insurance / costs so we don't have to seek funding. submitted by /u/ICanGetThem [link] [comments] https://www.reddit.com/r/cofounder/comments/rn0c3r/usasales6_startup_chemical_company_seeking/
