Biz 1 Brokers makes the buying and selling of existing businesses easy

Louisville, KY (July 6, 2009) Maggie Harlow is in the business of helping others start their own businesses. As owner of FranchiseMart Louisville, Harlow works with people who are drawn to the concept of owning their own businesses but who may be fearful of making the huge leap into startup business ownership.

“People dream of owning their own businesses even in down economies. But, a startup takes a lot of time and capital to get off the ground and involves some risk,” said Harlow.

That’s where Harlow’s new business venture comes in. Biz 1 Brokers – a division of FranchiseMart Louisville – is a full-service brokerage agency, which specializes in helping each client realize their dream of business ownership by purchasing an existing business for sale.

“The great thing about buying an existing business is that it already has exposure, trained staff, local recognition and may even reduce some of the risk of opening a new business,” said Harlow.

There are other advantages as well. “The logistics of the business such as licensing and zoning, build-out and establishing a brand have been taken care of for you! You can immediately have fun with the business and grow it to your liking,” said Harlow.  

Biz 1 Brokers also works with business owners looking to sell their businesses. Biz 1 Brokers will list the business, evaluate the business’ services, create marketing packages for the sale of the business and act as a negotiator in the sale.

Biz 1 Brokers already has one business for sale – a child-centered indoor recreational facility located in East Louisville. Interested parties may contact Harlow for more information – 502-587-9999.

According to Harlow, the addition of Biz 1 Brokers is a logical fit for FranchiseMart Louisville, which specializes in helping clients find the right franchise based on their interests, goals and financial qualifications.

“We’re in the business of helping others realize their dreams of business ownership. Biz 1 Brokers allows us a broader reach in finding a client the right business for their needs,” said Harlow.
