Businesses

[simmer2]

This thread is for anyone that works for a small business, or owns a small business.

Myself and partners are looking to purchase a business, and would love to chat about a successful company that a person works for or owns. We do have certain criteria, but this can be discussed at a later point.

We are well aware that you have to be willing to pay a good price for a good company, so we are not out there to short-change anybody; we want a good deal for both sides.

So, for anyone that fits this bill, feel free to PM me. If you are interested in what we do, then feel free to ask, and you don't need to PM me for that. Open discussion is always welcome.

That's not really the criteria for businesses that we purchase. It has only been around for a short period of time and is making a lot of money. We don't know if it is just a fad or if it will stick around and be successful. I'd rather wait another 5 years, then see how it is. And yeah, it could be ridiculously successful by then, or I could have paid for it today at a hefty price and still be paying the thing off in 10 years.

Seems to have copied the Magnolia Bakery on Bleecker St. in Manhattan. That place always has a line-up for cupcakes--they are good--and people drive for miles just to pick up a box.
