BUSINESS FEATURES
Business has huge untapped potential. Can be done part time like I did or full time. I havent spent money marketing due to being maxed out on clients for 2008. You can expand to a second truck in 2009 very easily and have enough clients for it. Lots of demand for extra services i.e. aerations and power rakes. Business can be built up to be able to take winters off. Also a great feature is time flexibility. If you need a day off, doctors appointment etc. And you can pick your own holidays.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Business is financially strong. Lots of tax deductions and benefits. Has provided me with secure comfortable living last 3 years. All equipment (except truck) is paid off. The fanchise value of the three territories is $35,000 alone, and is for another 7 years. (it was $50,000 for a 10 year term).
MARKET & COMPETITION
Market is very good. Territory is very affluent communities with high combined household income. This service is very marketable to seniors who cant do it themselves and to people too busy to do it themselves. There are roughly 3 other companies but our customer satisfaction/ renewal rate is around 90% where as theirs is around 75%. I had to turn down business in my second year 2007 and with no new marketing had more than enough customers and still turned down work.
