SOUTH WEST CLIMATE CONTROL & WINDOW SECURITY BUSINESS

WHERE CAN YOU BUY A BUSINESS FOR $150,000 WITH A NET PROFIT OF $157,000

WHERE CAN YOU FIND A PRODUCT THAT OFFERS ALL OF THE FOLLOWING?

Security: create a physical barrier between the interior and the outside world making them an effective deterrent against burglary and vandalism.

Privacy: offer privacy by preventing outsiders from seeing into a house, maintaining a comfortable and secluded environment.

Light and noise control: allow the homeowner to regulate the amount of light entering a room and can help reduce external noise, creating a quieter and more peaceful indoor environment.

Energy efficiency: provide insulation benefits, helping to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures throughout the year. This can lead to energy savings by reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling.

Protection from the elements: designed to withstand various weather conditions, including strong winds, heavy rain, and even hailstorms.

UV protection: can block harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from entering a home.

Versatility and customisation: come in a wide range of styles, colours, and finishes, allowing customers to choose a design that complements the aesthetics of their property.

This business is home-based, which offers numerous advantages including significantly reduced overhead costs.

Having no expenses related to premises or staff allows the owner to allocate more of its financial resources towards business development and expansion.

However the business currently does very little advertising, as most inquiries are derived from word-of-mouth recommendations and referrals.

The business has a great reputation, providing a strong foundation for a new owner to take it to another level.

In addition to the existing product range, there is a wide array of other products that a new owner can consider adding to the current offering.

These products are very diverse in their uses and locations. Currently the business mainly focuses on the residential market, with target customers that include shift workers, mining employees, nurses, aged care, parents with infants, and coastal homeowners.

That means that for a new owner there is a large untapped market that includes:
• Factory owners
• Commercial premises
• Cafes and restaurants
• Retail premises
• Educational institutions
• Healthcare facilities
• Office buildings

Essentially these products are required anywhere where customers are seeking protection from the weather elements or security for people and property.

Demand for these products in Western Australia is driven primarily by two factors: climate and crime. The media regularly covers both topics, ensuring they are top-of-mind amongst potential buyers.

 

Climate – more extreme events will drive demand

 

Crime – no matter the reality, perception is what drive sales

 

 

 

Currently the business does almost no marketing or proactive sales and – particularly in summer – turns away work it doesn’t have the capacity to handle. In effect, this is a business that is being artificially constrained by a conservative management style.

The business could easily expand into a small factory and hire staff, both in the factory and on the road selling to the commercial and industrial sector, as well as responding to inquiries from homeowners.

It could also increase the product range by offering related lines such as:
 Window and door sensors
 Security cameras
 Smart home automation systems
 Home alarm systems
 Sun protection and privacy films
 Outdoor lighting
 Rain sensors
 External blinds

The industry is constantly growing due to the public’s increased awareness of the benefits of these products in terms of increasing climate change and concerns about crime.
