Business Overview:
This women's apparel and accessories boutique's inviting and intimate atmosphere, exceptional customer support, and niche in catering to fashionable moms has resulted in a strong repeat client base through word of mouth and unique marketing program. The owner has built the business so that it is now a desirable place for women to spend time, lose themselves in the shopping experience, and have a truly fulfilling time. Furthermore, it has afforded the owner the opportunity to create her own flexible schedule while still growing the business’ popularity and dynamic inventory. The company has consistently maintained its quality and high level of service, as evidenced by its stability on all levels. The fact that it is firmly in place makes it easy for an acquirer to take over operations and enjoy continued success. This is a key benefit, as compared to having to create a new venture from the ground up, and thus suffering all the lessons inevitable in starting a new business.
The boutique is custom designed, decorated, and has built-in features that make it a very attractive, inviting, and warm place. It specializes in comfortable, easy-to-wear casual wear, dresses, and coats for the everyday modern woman who cares about looking stylish and being comfortable.

Property Features and Assets:
Gorgeous, custom-decorated space with high-end surfaces such as distressed hardwood floors and venetian plaster walls give this boutique a warmth and intimacy that are expensive to reproduce.
Included are custom-designed and built counter, shelves, dressing rooms, and racks -- using solid, distressed wood and steel pipes for a very rustic and industrial look.
The business uses QuickBooks software packages, one for the daily Point of Sale activities, and the other for regular accounting.
Market Competition and Expansion:
This boutique is very unique for the area due to its atmosphere, garment and accessory selection, and price point. There is no competition nearby. In spite of a recovering economy, this business has stayed afloat and in the black during the worst of times. Furthermore, it has actually put steady cash flow into the owners' pockets.
This boutique is poised for great growth in the years to come, and is an incredible value considering its established clientele, repeat business, and word of mouth. Buying this business would likely be less expensive than starting a brand new boutique from scratch and growing it to a similar level.
With the economy on its final leg of recovery, the sky is truly the limit. Unexploited opportunities include opening multiple stores and creating a chain success, expanding the Web site and selling online, traveling to fashion markets in the US and around the world to discover hidden treasures, and the possibility of creating one's own label.
