Business Growth Equals Great Result For Kate’s Hair Salon Sale

Business Growth Equals Great Result For Kate’s Hair Salon Sale!

Kate originally listed her business for sale in 2019. With a solid buyer not presenting and time on her side, the decision was made to withdraw the hair salon from the market. Kate wanted to spend some time working on the business, increase profitability to achieve a higher price point and make the business more attractive to potential buyers.

With a stronger and more robust business in 2022, Kate decided it was time to come back on board with Bonza. By taking the time to work on the business, Kate was able to demonstrate what an outstanding opportunity this salon was to a motivated buyer. Within three short months, the salon had new owners and Kate yielded an extra $20,000 on top of her original asking price. What a fantastic result!
