7 Joke And Prank Store Success Stories [2023]
Here are some real life success stories of starting a joke and prank store:
1. Dick At Your Door ($1.5M/year)
Adam Hascall (from California, USA) started Dick At Your Door over 8 years ago.
My name is Adam Elliot, and I started Dick At Your Door, an e-commerce shop for people who like to gift pranks, gags, and funny novelties to their friends and family.
Yes, you read that correctly... Dick At Your Door sells chocolate penises you can send as a fun prank to friends and family.
2. Joker Greeting ($1.2M/year)
Travis Peterson (from Irvine, California, USA) started Joker Greeting over 8 years ago.
I am Travis Peterson and started Joker Greeting. We make original prank gifts and prank non-gifts for friends, family, and offices. It all started with a non-stop musical greeting card that looped for 3-6 hours.
For 2.5 years, I have been working on making musical greeting cards interesting again. To be clear, I never intended on making a greeting card or joke company, but we launched on Kickstarter and raised $92,073 in 30 days with no marketing, so I decided to give it a shot.
