Case Study: MSTRMND Collective turns Kickstarter success into a thriving online store with Shopify

MSTRMND Collective - Customer Case Study

MSTRMND Collective, two friends from Orlando, designed the Slimplistic Wallet to solve a lack of truly slim, comfortable wallets on the market. Their biggest challenges were sourcing U.S.-based manufacturers and suppliers for a custom product and validating demand before production.

They used Thomasnet to find domestic partners, built prototypes and ran a successful Kickstarter that validated demand and drove initial pre-orders, then opened a Shopify store. Early sales came from Kickstarter referrals and blog coverage, and operationally they moved from manual fulfillment to ShippingEasy to speed shipping and cut postage costs; with supply nearly caught up to demand, they’re positioned to scale marketing and grow sales.
