Growth & Expansion

Virtually any auto repair shop can be improved upon by implementing a well thought out marketing effort. Shops that are for sale are usually being sold by retiring owners. And retiring owners...guys in their 60s and 70s...have a strong tendency to rely on reputation and word of mouth. They almost never use direct marketing or social media. This business fits into that category. The core business and reputation is strong but needs new blood to push it to the next level.

Support & Training

Couple weeks should do it. More is available depending on the deal.

Facilities & Assets

The 4,937 sf building is in good shape. It's easy access from the street and easy to pull cars in and out. It's five bay. All bays facing forward. The asking price is based on sold comps. It really is a package deal though. Business and property. One thing we've learned is that while the property price needs to be correct and supportable...and the business price needs to be correct and supportable. It's also true that the package price must also work. And this deal works that way.

Market & Competition

The business owner has run the business profitably for many years. But he is comfortable at the current level of profitability and has not made any effort to increase business. It is ready for a new owner to take the reins and push it to the next level. See Growth and Expansion below. Auto repair is a steady business. When times are good...people get their cars fixed. When times are tough...guess what people do. They still get their cars fixed. Auto repair is not recession proof...but it is recession resistant.
