Alan Meckler has a really good blog post about an artist that set up an online greeting card site and has found great success. Meckler references an article at the Wall Street Journal that I can't find so I'll quote him:

"For those who will not read the article let me summarize: A British artist named Jacquie Lawson has created an incredibly successful online greeting card company. Some metrics: two employees, no marketing costs, revenues approaching $5 million, tiny inventory of 500 greeting cards, and an $8.00 per annum subscription price!

"The success of jacquielawson.com is just one of thousands of ecommerce gems that few of us ever learn about."

The Wall Street Journal has made the article about Jacquie Lawson available on Startup Journal:

Edit: The Journal removed their article but I found it at the author's site:
