Three Arguments for Buying a Graffiti Removal & Protection Business
At Gaebler, we think it makes a lot of sense to explore a graffiti removal and protection business purchase before committing to a startup.
You'll want to conduct a comprehensive due diligence process, but here are three arguments why you should think about buying instead of a startup.
- Proven Profitability. Startups struggle to bring in revenue right out of the gate while existing businesses usually have a steady stream of income.
- Operational Efficiency. A good graffiti removal and protection business should already function like a well-oiled machine.
- Capital Acquisition. In general, it's easier to finance an existing business than it is to fund a startup. While a startup only exists on paper (initially), established businesses have the benefit of historical earnings statements and tangible assets.
Don't Rule Out Franchising

Prior to starting a graffiti removal and protection business, you may want to investigate whether buying a franchise could be worth investigating.
