Award Winning Landscape Design Build Firm

Some businesses ask you to build something from scratch. This one hands you a brand that took 35 years to earn.
This design-build firm has served North Metro Atlanta's most affluent homeowners since 1991 — featured on national television, recognized by the community seven consecutive years, and built on a subcontractor model that runs like a general contracting firm. The owner manages, sells, and oversees quality. Specialized crews handle execution. It's a business designed for someone with strong organizational and relationship skills — the kind you've spent years developing.
The Business at a Glance

Why This Business Stands Apart
Most businesses on this site require you to either know the trade or hire expensive managers to cover what you don't. This one is structured differently. Specialized subcontractor crews — many with 10+ years of loyalty to this firm — handle all field execution. The owner's role is sales, client relationships, and project oversight. That skillset transfers directly from corporate life.
The brand does the heavy lifting. This firm carries more third-party recognition than any competitor in its market:
National television feature — major home and garden network
National backyard design excellence award — 2026
Community voted Best Hardscape Design/Build — 2026
Best Landscape Contractor — 7 consecutive years, 2018–2024
Best Hardscape Design/Build — 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025
National design platform award — 2020
Service excellence recognition — ongoing
When a homeowner in a $1.5M property calls this firm, they are not shopping around. The brand already closed the sale before you picked up the phone.
The Market
You will serve North Metro Atlanta's most affluent zip codes — some of the highest household incomes in the Southeast — where homeowners invest heavily in outdoor living spaces and expect premium quality. Georgia's mild climate supports year-round project activity. Revenue does not stop in winter.
How You Replace Your Corporate Income
The current owner ran this business solo and generated $241K in personal earnings on $1.1M in revenue. Applying corporate-level systems to a deliberately underleveraged operation creates meaningful upside:
No CRM exists — basic pipeline management and follow-up cadence recovers revenue that currently falls through the cracks
No maintenance division exists — the 35-year customer database is a ready-made recurring revenue opportunity. Conservative estimate: 50 accounts at $250 per month equals $150K in new annual income without a single new marketing dollar
No digital marketing program — the television feature and award history are conversion assets that have never been fully deployed
The Transition
The owner is retiring after 35 years. He is not looking for a quick exit — he is looking for the right person to carry what he built. He is open to an extended hands-on transition, an ongoing consulting arrangement, or an equity partnership structure if that gives you the confidence to move forward. Duration and structure are flexible and will be tailored to the right buyer.
This is a business for someone who is ready to stop building someone else's company and start building their own.

Established Gumball machine business.

Imagine owning a well-established vending machine business that practically runs itself! This opportunity features 313 gumball machines strategically placed throughout Atlanta and West Georgia in high-traffic, people-attracting locations.

You'll love the simplicity of this business model. These little red gumball machines are positioned in prime spots where customers naturally wait - hair salons, auto dealerships, auto parts stores, restaurants, and Mexican markets. The beauty is in the locations: places where people stand at counters and have a moment to make that impulse purchase.

Here's what makes this opportunity special: the numbers work beautifully. With cost of goods at just 10% and machines generating steady daily turns, you're looking at healthy profit margins. Some locations see 5-6 turns daily, while even conservative locations with 1.5 turns generate consistent income.

The current owner has spent years building relationships with business owners who welcome these machines. You'll inherit established routes and proven locations that have been carefully selected for maximum foot traffic and customer engagement.

This isn't just about gumballs - it's about owning a business that generates income while you sleep. The routes are established, the locations are proven, and the demand is consistent. All 313 machines will be fully deployed and operational by the time of sale.

You'll appreciate the low maintenance nature of this business. No employees, no complex operations - just reliable, steady income from locations that have already proven their worth. The seller will provide complete cost versus retail information, giving you full transparency into the profit potential.

This is your chance to step into a turnkey operation with established cash flow and growth potential.

Established Western Wear Retailer with Consistent Sales

Imagine walking into your own 21,000 square foot western wear destination that customers have trusted for over three decades. You'll inherit something truly special here - a business that started with just 40 pairs of boots and has grown into a regional powerhouse with $1.3 million in carefully curated inventory.

What makes this opportunity so compelling? You're not just buying a store - you're stepping into established relationships with premium brands like Ariat, Tony Lama, Tecovas, Justin, and Dan Post. These aren't partnerships you can build overnight, and they give you immediate credibility in the market.

Your customers will range from working professionals who need quality boots that last, to families shopping for their kids' first cowboy hat. You'll love how multi-generational loyalty works in this business - grandparents bring their grandchildren, creating relationships that span decades.

The western wear market has something many retail sectors lack: resilience. People need work boots, and western culture isn't going anywhere. Your expertise becomes your competitive advantage as customers rely on your guidance for fit, durability, and style.

With over 30 years of profitable operations behind it, this business has weathered economic ups and downs while maintaining consistent sales. You'll have the financial history to show exactly how stable this opportunity is.

The location offers ample space for your extensive inventory while providing room to grow. Whether you want to expand product lines, add services, or enhance the customer experience, you'll have the foundation to build upon.

This is your chance to own a respected business in a community that values authenticity, quality, and personal service.

Step into a stylish, newly renovated salon suite space designed for today’s beauty and wellness professionals. This 1,750 sq. ft. business features floor-to-ceiling updates, including elegant chandeliers, crown-molded ceilings, and chic pink walls that create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Tenants enjoy 24/7 keyless entry, a trendy waiting corridor, built-in washbowls, ample storage, and Instagram-worthy touches like a large mirror and LED sign. A dedicated breakroom with bar, refrigerator, and microwave, plus a fully equipped wash area with fresh towels and storage, add convenience and appeal.

Perfect for lash techs, estheticians, makeup artists, nail artists, and boutique owners, this business offers professionals a modern, independent space to thrive while giving clients a boutique experience.

Profitable Landscaping and Hardscaping Company 25 Years in Business

This well-established landscaping and hardscaping company has been a trusted name in Metro Atlanta for more than two decades, delivering exceptional design, installation, and maintenance services to both residential and commercial clients. Built on a reputation for quality, professionalism, and reliability, the business enjoys strong brand recognition, a loyal customer base, and a steady stream of repeat and referral business.

The company provides a full spectrum of services, including landscape design, turf, and seasonal maintenance. Skilled in both functional and aesthetic outdoor solutions, the business has completed projects ranging from elegant residential gardens to large-scale commercial installations.

Over the years, the company has developed streamlined operational systems and assembled a team of experienced professionals who ensure high-quality work and client satisfaction. This structure allows the owner to focus primarily on sales, client relationships, and strategic planning, while day-to-day operations run smoothly.

Key Highlights:
Over 25 years of continuous operation in a growing Metro Atlanta market.
Diverse service offerings covering both residential and commercial landscaping.
Strong brand recognition and an excellent reputation for quality and reliability.
Well-trained, professional staff in place to ensure consistent results and customer satisfaction.
High percentage of repeat clients and long-standing maintenance contracts.
The sale includes all necessary trucks, trailers, tools, and equipment to operate efficiently.

Why This Business Stands Out:
This company offers a rare combination of stability, profitability, and growth potential. With a long-standing reputation in the community, established systems, a skilled workforce, and a broad client base, the business is positioned for continued success. The current owner’s willingness to provide training and transitional support ensures a smooth handover and sets the stage for the new owner’s immediate success.

Empowering Beauty Entrepreneurs: Salon Suite Business

The business provides rental space for independent stylists, hair stylists, braiders, barbers, and lash technicians to operate their own businesses. It offers a total of 14 suites designed to function as mini salons.

More than just a salon suite provider, the business serves as a launchpad for beauty professionals to build and grow their own ventures. Strategically located in McDonough, Georgia, it occupies a unique position in an area with no other salon suite providers, creating a prime opportunity for beauty entrepreneurs to thrive.

Recognized as an industry disruptor, the salon suite concept is uniquely positioned to support professionals in their transition to business ownership. The suites are crafted not merely as rental spaces, but as environments where entrepreneurial visions can take shape. With a polished, professional setting, the space fosters creativity, independence, and long-term success.

Owning this salon suite business offers a significant advantage for individuals seeking a hands-off investment. Because the suites are rented to independent beauty professionals who run their own businesses, the owner is not responsible for managing daily salon operations or providing salon services. There is no need for prior experience in the beauty industry, as the primary responsibility is maintaining occupancy through marketing and basic facility management. With low overhead and minimal involvement required, this model allows for passive income generation without the need for industry-specific expertise or full-time oversight.

Exceptional Hair Salon with a Focus on Healthy Hair & Growth Potential

This unique hair salon was founded in 2020 out of a passion for celebrating natural beauty and providing exceptional hair care. Located in the heart of Henry County, the salon offers a sanctuary where clients can receive top-notch services while enjoying a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. Specializing in silk press treatments, the team of skilled stylists brings artistry and expertise to every session, ensuring each client’s hair is treated with the utmost care.

The philosophy of the salon revolves around three key pillars: impeccable client experience, quick yet thorough services, and a steadfast commitment to healthy hair. The salon operates on the mantra, “Spend an hour and smell the flowers,” reflecting their dedication to providing efficient, high-quality services that prioritize hair health. This focus on both style and care sets the salon apart in the marketplace and has created a loyal following.

With annual sales of $210,000 and annual cash flow of $45,000, the salon has built a strong foundation and is well-positioned for continued success. Social media marketing, particularly through Instagram and TikTok, has been a major driver of business, with Google also serving as an important source of client traffic. Community sponsorships have successfully increased local visibility, further enhancing the salon’s reputation.

The business owner is dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition for the new owner, offering up to 60 days of training and a willingness to sign a standard non-compete agreement. The salon is well-managed, with established policies and procedures in place that allow for smooth day-to-day operations without requiring constant owner oversight. Staff is in place and ready to continue providing the exceptional service the salon is known for.

The premises are leased, providing flexibility for the new owner. With a strong brand, dedicated staff, and loyal customer base, this business presents an excellent opportunity for an entrepreneur looking to take over a thriving, community-oriented salon with significant growth potential.
