Summary

Business Description: The franchise is the fastest growing therapeutic massage concept specializing in the membership model with over 70 locations operating across the country. It offers professional massage services by licensed and registered Therapists in a clean, upscale, spa-like environment. Several membership options, branded retail products and additional services generate multiple streams of income for both the Massage Therapist and the Franchisee. Unparalleled franchise education, training and support in this field makes this an incredible opportunity for the right individual(s).

Revenues can be predicted fairly consistently. A large percentage of members are paying monthly dues and thus there is a known and stable component to the revenue line each month. Additionally, you can look historically at seasonal trends and can use those in predicting current revenues, especially in relation to the impact of gift card sales around the holidays.

A new owner could be functional in the business very quickly. Prior to taking over the business a new owner would be required to attend a one week training course at the Corporate Headquarters. Any manager brought on board would also be able to attend this training. Additionally, there are significant resources provided by Corporate including a detailed operations manual, video training, audio recorded training, weekly training calls, checklists, scripts, etc.

Additional upgrades required by the franchisor when completed will present the opportunity to significantly increase retail exposure and the member base. The cost for the new owner to change to the new model in two locations will be about $88,000. The sellers have taken this cost into account when establishing the price ie, $263,000 to the sellers at closing and $93,000 for improvements and transfer fees. A new franchise location could cost about $330,000 and not have the advantages of trained employees, established client base and cash flow.
Historical Summary:
Owner Qualifications:
Competition: Normal for this industry.
Potential Growth: Desirable and fast growing industry. This franchise was ranked as one of the top 15 growth franchises in an industry publication for 2010.

Well positioned in a fast growing industry, this franchise is a turnkey operation. The franchisor has developed programs to support the individual locations to grow revenue and profits.
