13.07.10 : Franchise Opportunity with Hairforce Lice Assassins 

Delivering a dramatically different home working business opportunity for women The Hairforce – Lice Assassins is a unique nit & head lice clearing service.  Welcome to the world of LouseBusters™, Assassin mums and lice hoovers.

Nits are big business. Up to 5 million people in the UK get nits and lice every year, spending £30 million annually on products in an effort to clear them. Frustratingly they’re not managing it. We on the other hand do. Our hand-clearing, chemical free service guarantees lice and nit-free heads – as shown recently on Channel 4’s Embarrassing Bodies Kids Series.

Valuable IP comes in the shape of exclusive rights to the LouseBuster™ device, which uses controlled, heated air to kill head lice & their eggs. 

We have spent the last four years establishing this business and always with the objective to franchise. Everything has been put in place for this to succeed. From delivering excellent customer service, building PR and word of mouth recommendation, to trade marking and building a team that could support growth. 

We all know that there isn’t enough flexible work out there for women but by becoming a Hairforce Franchisee women can:

- Work from home
- Have flexible employment
- Create flexible employment for other women
- Do something interesting and brilliantly satisfying

Our franchising package is deliberately comprehensive and thorough, including everything needed to start and run the business. This package costs £9950 plus VAT.

If you think you would be interested in us and this opportunity call Dee on 0207 485 7351 or email dee@thehairforce.co.uk

8.07.10 : Fantastic e-tail opportunity for a budding web-preneur!!

Are you looking for a great business that you can develop and run from home to fit around your hours and your lifestyle? Or perhaps you would just love to get your teeth in developing an already successful business? Either way lottieandthomas.co.uk could be the perfect fit!!

This leading children’s clothing e-business is up for sale, and is ready and waiting for a web savvy, retail guru to take it to the next stage of its development.

Originally established as a marketing support tool to the shop, in the gorgeous Surrey village of Thames Ditton, lottieandthomas.co.uk is now a stand alone business in its own right with a fully integrated shopping cart facility. The site regularly receives in excess of 7000 hits per month, has over 250 active customers and a mailing list in excess of 1000.

The potential for growth and development is huge, as indeed is the opportunity to expand the product portfolio.

The business is for sale, reluctantly, due to personal reasons, and comes with a current stock holding in the region of £10,000. There is also the option, by separate negotiation to purchase various presentation items, such as hangers, running rails, storage crates and mannequins – all necessary for helping promote the business at exhibitions and fairs.

The business is up and running and ready for you, to take it to the next stage.

If you are interested in taking control of a business in one of the UK’s lowest risk industries (in spite of the recession, year on year expenditure on children’s clothes continues to increase), you can get in touch with me by phone or email;

It is distributed to coffee shops, cafés, restaurants, hairdressers, business centres, actually anywhere that people wait. It operates on a local basis and is unique in two respects:
