OnLime is a social commerce website that allows customers to customize their Apple devices with unique stickers designed by artists. The business model involves designers creating and uploading designs for sale on the site. When a design is purchased, OnLime produces and delivers the sticker while paying the designer a portion of the sale price. The site aims to promote designs and sales through social networks by encouraging user engagement, running design contests, and leveraging the viral effect of sharing on sites like Twitter and Facebook. The annual operating costs are estimated between $265,000-$410,000 with projected annual revenues of $624,000 from sticker sales.
