    For Sale TURNKEY WELL KNOWN FULLY Established Taxidermy Business (of 30 years) in Northern Wisconsin.[/b]

    HAVE you been waiting for an opportunity to open your own taxidermy studio but don't want to take the blind leap and commit to the unknown? Concerned about cash flow, living expenses, the cost of start up, even establishing a customer base and being able to survive WHILE sacrificing ALL of your time to do so????

    WE HAVE THE SOLUTION

    Thirty years this reputable taxidermy business (an icon in the Northwood’s) has been serving customers from not just northern Wisconsin, but nation wide.
    Our shop is nestled in a very popular area of the north woods of Wisconsin. Hunting fishing and a thriving tourism population is predominant.

    The community is supported by white and blue collar workers with good industry in the area. The economic woes have not been seen at the taxidermy shop. RECESSION proof due to the fact that customers value their trophy animals and just simply have money to commit to guarantee they get that mount on the wall!

    Our business has been built from the ground up. Valueable insight, priceless lessons learned, instant turnkey customer base, cash flow income, everything a new or seasoned taxidermist will find attractive.


    Here are some key perks AND points to ponder that will show you WHY this business works so well and the OPPORTUNITY it presents to the right person..

    Small businesses have a high failure rate. WHY? Large overhead, huge start up costs, and poor management. When you have two building (your home AND the business) to pay on, YOU have to met the bottom-line every month. TWO tax bills, 2 electric bills, 2 buildings to heat, 2 insurance bills. NO MATTER what You have to PAY to live somewhere! So WHY not LIVE where you WORK with the greatest PERK of all LOCATION LOCATION!!!

    THE BUILDING:

    ~ Located on a MAIN highway, with prime highway frontage. A icon landmark in the community. High traffic flow
    ~ 60X60 working shop includes rustic display room ,spacious work area/ large cold storage/salt/tanning room (this facility is fully equipped for tanning with LARGE commercial tumblers)
    ~FULL living quarters! 2 Bedroom/new addition w/ vaulted ceiling/beautifully wooded private backyard with full mature producing apple trees. NEVER have to drive to work again!!!
    ~The building also supports a rental business (currently a small sport shop)
    ~30X30 Cleary building (two car with large storage area)
    

    ]The BUSINESS itself
    ~]Deer heads, Big Game (black bears, elk, ect) and fish are the staple workload. We have curtailed our business to ONLY serve this type of work. There is the option if one wants to expand to do birds, small mammals, customer tanning ect. This format would be entirely UP TO YOU! Our income on Game heads alone allows us to live comfortably and still have ample time to enjoy living up north!
    ~Established customer base. THIS IS PRICESLESS! :D YOU would be walking into a instant client base of 30 years!!! These people keep coming back year after year. AND new customers still keep showing up at the door due to the location. Very lucrative for ANY taxidermist starting out a new business
    ~Recognized professional website
    ~Income potential based on HOW much or how little YOU wish to work

    The bottom line is, with our taxidermy business, the way that is set up now, today… If you have the potential to do quality work. The WORK is here, as much or as little as you want.

    To inquire about further details we ask that you email us personally. We will gladly disclose price, what we are willing to do to assist someone who wants to take over the business, or just answer questions about what type of opportunity YOU are looking for and WHAT we have to offer.

    We have trained new taxidermists and would also be willing to assist getting someone off the ground if they are serious about doing this for a living!

    Control your own destiny! There is no better way to do this then to be your own boss !!



    SOLD!!!! ON THE ROAD to the NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE!!! Thanks everyone for the interest. This business has served us well! See ya in another life time!!

    [color=blue[b]]Asking Price $199,00.00. Terms and options available. We didnt want to just list a price and call it good since we are very open to many diferent ideas about the business, taking over, financing ideas, so everything is a open discussion. BUT at least, this gives everyone a starting point![[/b]b][/b][/color] ;)

    Heres some pics we took this morning. Shop still producing the last of the deerheads and finishing up on two bear mounts. AND the pic of the shop itself from the outside. You cant see the attached house in the back because it is indeed pretty private. The cleary building is a two car garage with a large area for storage.
    Interested parties I can send more pics a my website link! Thanks!

    HUNTING SEASON BEGINS AT THE SHOP!

    Yes, we are in full swing at our shop taking in our fall work.

    Many have inquired as to WHY would we be selling our shop when it is apparently doing so well !?
    LIFE GOES ON, and this adventure has provided us with everything we could EVER ask for. BUT now its time for a NEW adventure!
    Over 30 years I have worked to build this business.It is indeed a icon here in the Northwoods.And although I will be sad to let it go I am ready to turn the page....

    We are hoping for a hand off planned for next year. Our terms are negotiable but would like to have someone in here, settled and ready to take over 100% by summer, fall.

    Give us a call if your interested!
