Because of the nature of its work customer service is at the centre of everything the business does.

Property information

Location:

The business is currently run from a home office environment. There are no premises attached to this sale. The business is fully relocatable as it has a wide spread of customers.

Other information

Expansion potential:

To date the company has developed a small amount of non wedding business and this could be significantly increased with more sales and marketing activity within the “special occasions” market place. A new owner with new ideas and initiatives could easily increase sales within the weddings market or potentially in corporate chauffeur services. The company could use its outstanding reputation to drive corporate sales growth with the acquisition of a number of newer executive vehicles. This would have the added benefit of being non-seasonal in nature.

Competition / Market:

The business has used little advertising in the past and there are excellent opportunities to increase this in line with a new sales and marketing push which would reap immediate rewards. A high proportion of the business's revenue has been due to its excellent reputation for quality and service and strong word of mouth recommendation and this is expected to continue. Further development of the website would certainly increase market share.

Support & training:

The owner will provide full business familiarisation, training and handover as required to ensure a smooth transfer of the business to new owners.

Reasons for selling:

Early retirement.
