Who made the investment?
Taryn from Des Moines, IA.
Simply stated, Taryn is a rock star! She previously owned and operated a group of 3 very successful tanning salons in Iowa and sold these after operating these for a number of years.
Why was she looking for a franchise?
Taryn sold her previous business and had sat on the sidelines for a couple of years, enjoying the fruit of her labors and re-energizing her batteries for her next business. By last summer, she was fully re-charged and ready to get started again.
But, having been a successful owner for many years, she knew what she wanted and what she did not want. And, to be honest, this made our search process both simple and difficult at the same time. It was helpful that Taryn was very specific about her objectives and criteria. But, it also narrowed the pool of options dramatically as we aimed to find the ideal business for her next big run.
What did she invest in?
After a couple of iterations, we finally focused in on a single boutique fitness opportunity for her that really is the perfect choice for her. Taryn invested in 3 units of YS where she will dominate the Des Moines market! Seeing the huge market opportunity, Taryn and her partner Mark are giving consideration to expansion into 2 other Midwest markets as well.
Why did she choose that brand?
For Taryn, this was an opportunity to dig into a business that fit her core criteria: passion for the service, semi absentee ownership and large income opportunity. YS fits all 3 of these criteria perfectly. Taryn is a buyer of this service already and is excited about the differentiation that YS brings to the marketplace. As a multi-unit owner, Taryn is also establishing a management team so that she can be a semi-absentee, executive owner with a team handling all of the day to day operations. And, this business makes BIG money and creates a gigantic return on investment.
