Business description
Why This Opportunity Stands Out This is not a franchise , but it delivers many of the advantages buyers look for in one. The current owner has extensive experience building and growing the company and is committed to remaining involved after the sale as a mentor and consultant to help ensure a smooth transition and continued growth. Tired of working for someone else? This business can change your life This owner is making approx. $148k working 30 hours a week Buyers will benefit from: • Proven operating systems Financing options • Hands-on transition support • Strategic growth guidance • A clear roadmap for expansion You receive the structure and playbook of a franchise system — without the franchise fees, royalties, or restrictive oversight. Untapped Profit Potential You are not just buying current income — you are acquiring a business with clear, actionable growth opportunities already identified. The seller has developed a detailed operational and sales playbook outlining proven upselling strategies and operational improvements that have not yet been fully implemented. As a result, the current financials do not yet reflect the business’s full earning potential. Opportunities to increase revenue include: Expand Safety-Based Services Each year there are over 16,000 dryer vent fires in the United States . By educating homeowners on fire prevention and safety maintenance, the business can increase revenue through: • Safety inspections • Maintenance plans • Fire prevention products • Service upgrades These additions increase average ticket size without increasing labor hours or service calls. Leverage Existing Marketing Systems A strong digital marketing platform is already in place, and a new CRM system is ready to launch , providing access to thousands of potential leads and repeat customers. Scale Within a Premium Service Territory The company already services customers from the Hamptons to Queens , covering a highly desirable and densely populated market. With structured management and consistent marketing, this territory offers significant room for growth. Built-In Transition Support The owner is stepping back for family reasons but is committed to supporting the buyer during and after the transition. The buyer will receive: • Operational onboarding • Transition coaching • Strategic growth guidance • Access to the seller’s expansion playbook This ensures the buyer acquires not just a business, but a proven system and roadmap for long-term growth. Asking Price $160,000- $80k Seller Financing Revenue: $204,200 Net Profit: $148,625 Owner workload: Under 30 hours per week Next Steps Serious inquiries only.
