Specifications
The owner of this business lives out of town and works 2-3 days per week! Serving Omaha and Lincoln for 20 years, this company focuses on high end weddings and corporate events with an average event sale range of $7,000-$8,000. This business has a unique ability to create and execute any request including lavish floral arrangements, draping, lighting, center pieces, and back drops. A full time lead creative consultant, warehouse studio manager, and a handful of part time employees ensure no detail is overlooked. A large workshop area, storage facility and a consultation office in a nearby city help this company maintain their excellent reputation. Recommendations from party planners, caterers, and former clients have allowed this company to flourish without active advertising. They have recently been nationally recognized in a TLC article. Over the years, a focus on floral has expanded to achieve an even split between floral, rentals, and design.
As seasonality effects all event design companies, the winter months would be a perfect time for a new owner to take this business to the next level. With additional employees & minimal advertising, this company is fit to grow. The owner is willing to train for up to three months.
At the current purchase price of $200,000, a 15% down payment of $30,000 returns $84,581 in the first year after debt payments, which is a return on investment of 282%.
