Consignment Event Sale Company - $17,500
Turnkey opportunity to own your own consignment event sale  company - with no territory limitations or royalties. This concept and company has been researched, developed, named, branded and the logo, website, and business plan developed by a former Procter & Gamble marketing professional and her Co-Founder. Pressures of home responsibilities (5 kids between them) force a sale to a new owner who can more effectively capitalize on this opportunity. The current owners will provide training and transition support. With prices rising, the economy slowing and household budgets being squeezed, secondhand consignment sales are expected to be a growing segment of the retail industry. This company is positioned to take advantage of that immediate opportunity, as well as position the new owner to expand the business in new directions of their choice. Assets include, but are not limited to the name, logo, website, price-tagging guns, laser tag printer, bar code scanners, receipt printers, Consign Pro software, logo, creative materials (such as banners, ad-copy and Power Point presentation), consignor/advertiser agreements, research and business plan. The current owners will consider cash offers or will finance a purchase with $10,000 down and payments on the balance for 3 years at 8%. |
Price Reduced: Day Spa/Salon - $90,000
Day spa/salon specializing in high-end services at affordable prices, including skin care, nail care, massage and hair styling. This Douglas County day spa opened in November 2004, serving the growing South Denver metro, Highlands Ranch, Parker and Douglas County areas. The facility includes two hair-styling stations, three nail stations, two pedicure stations, two massage rooms, two esthetician rooms and a laundry room. Separated rooms are noise-protected and ventilated to preserve the day spa atmosphere. Current owners would stay, if desired, as booth renters. Commissions, booth rent and product sales basically pay the expenses of the salon. Asking price is below original furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory and tenant improvement cost. This is a great opportunity for an owner/services provider to step into a turnkey day spa/salon, with established clientele and operating history for less than start-up cost. |
