The benefits of owning a home organization dealership are truly unlimited. It's one of those rare opportunities that offer tremendous advantages from both industry and individual perspectives:
- The growth of the home organizing industry is unlimited.
- The growth of your business is unlimited.
- Your customer base is ever-present and unlimited.
- The home organizing industry is virtually economy-proof.
So, congratulations, you've chosen a unique and lucrative business venture. You'll be targeting the fastest-growing market segment in America: existing homes with lots of messy closets, garages, and a host of other shelving and organizing needs! And just take a look around your own area. You probably see hundreds of new homes and entire home communities popping up. Add these developments to those already existing homes and you have a vast customer base.
The home organization industry also has the advantage of being relatively young. In the mid-1960s it began as an off-shoot of the home building and remodeling industries. At that time it was a specialty, but since then it's grown into a thriving industry of its own. The fact that the industry is young means that there is still so much room for growth, with fresh opportunities and new products constantly being developed. Today there are thousands of custom closet companies nationwide that have taken advantage of this.
So why should you enter an industry that's already highly competitive? It's simple. As we said, the home organization industry is huge – more than $1 billion annually and growing! And with interest rates still at an historic low, home sales and home ownership continue to increase at rapid levels. And that means new customers and plenty of opportunity for new home organizing businesses to enter the market.
Because of this, the home organizing industry is virtually economy-proof which, in these days, makes it particularly attractive as a business venture. On the surface, organizing your closets or other areas of your home may seem a luxury upgrade that some might eliminate in financially difficult times. But in actuality, it works the opposite way. When the economy is faltering, people tend to nest. They can't afford to move into their big dream home so instead they choose to make the most of their existing space by adding shelves, drawers and cabinets -- by organizing their existing space – all to make what they have look more attractive and spacious.
On the flip side, our industry also thrives when the economy is booming. It's then that home sales flourish and people are flush with money. They are finally able to move to their dream home, and what better way to make that dream home dreamier than to have a stunning showplace of a closet? An uncluttered and neatly shelved garage? So you're in business no matter what the stock market is doing!
