Starting a Blue Moon Estate Sales franchise is an exciting adventure—one filled with opportunities for growth, learning, and community impact. From your very first sale to the ongoing success of your business, you’ll be equipped with the tools, resources, and support to thrive. 

At Blue Moon, we understand that everyone has to start somewhere, which is why we’ve created a robust training system to ensure you're fully prepared. Whether you're diving into Blue Moon University for essential knowledge, collaborating with fellow franchisees, or receiving personalized guidance from business coaches, you'll always have a team by your side. 

And the best part? The support doesn’t end once you’ve launched your business—it continues, ensuring you and your team stay on the path to long-term success.

Welcome to Blue Moon University: Your Guide to Franchise Success

Starting your own business can feel overwhelming, which is why we created Blue Moon University (BMU)—a comprehensive training program designed to set you up for success from day one. Whether you’re learning the ropes of operations or fine-tuning your local marketing strategy, BMU provides you with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to lead your franchise and grow your business.

Phase 1: Onboarding Your Blue Moon Journey

First and foremost, let’s establish the foundation of your Blue Moon franchise venture. Through a series of interactive courses and an easy-to-follow checklist, you’ll gain a strong understanding of what makes Blue Moon Estate Sales so unique. From exploring the importance of brand consistency to discovering ways to engage with your local community, this introductory phase gives you the tools needed to lead your business effectively.

It’s not just about the logistics, though. Onboarding also introduces you to the Blue Moon culture—one rooted in innovation, teamwork, and customer care. By the end of this phase, you’ll have a clear vision of how to create meaningful experiences for your clients and shoppers alike.

Phase 2: Virtual Classroom Training

Hearing the word “classroom” might take you back to high school, sitting at a desk and counting down the minutes until the bell rang. But trust us, this is nothing like that. Instead, our virtual classroom training is your chance to roll up your sleeves and dive into the nuts and bolts of running your franchise. It’s all about getting hands-on with the day-to-day details—like how to set up estate sales that wow your shoppers, organize inventory, and create an experience that keeps people coming back for more.

You’ll also tackle the people side of things, learning how to lead a team that’s just as excited about the business as you are. With a mix of checklists and video modules, this two-week phase is designed to make sure you feel ready and confident to handle it all. By the end, you’ll have practical strategies and insider know-how to set your business up for long-term success.

Phase 3: Ready, Set, Launch

This is the moment you’ve been building toward—launching your very own Blue Moon Estate Sales franchise. It’s all about putting the finishing touches in place to make a big splash in your neighborhood. From crafting your local website to fine-tuning your online marketing efforts, every detail helps set the stage for a memorable debut. 

You’ll also focus on making connections within the community, building excitement for your services, and establishing yourself as the go-to expert for estate sales in your area.

Whether you’re organizing your first estate sale, finalizing team prep, or mapping out your calendar of events, this is your chance to make everything you’ve worked for come together. With the knowledge, tools, and support system you’ve gained, you’re ready to step into your new role confidently.

Ongoing Support For You & Your Team

Your learning doesn’t stop after the “graduation” of Blue Moon University. We provide you with ongoing support to help you adapt to real-life scenarios where unexpected challenges or opportunities might arise. 

For instance, if a sudden surge of sales leads leaves your team stretched thin, you’ll have access to tailored employee training courses through BMU’s online platform to quickly onboard new hires and get them up to speed. Whether it’s revisiting foundational training materials or diving into advanced techniques, you’ll have resources at your fingertips.

Blue Moon Estate Sales also provides tools that simplify daily operations, such as industry-leading customized software to help with the following:

  • Streamline customer management and inventory tasks
  • Price items accordingly
  • Market your intended target audience
  • Pull client reports for every stage of the estate sale process
  • Sign customers up for loyalty programs

Let’s Go Beyond the Training

You already know that you’ll have an arsenal of tools and technologies behind you to drive successful estate sales, but the support doesn’t stop at software and training videos. Blue Moon Estate Sales provides franchisees with in-person, personalized guidance to guarantee business thrives. 

Our business coaches are more than experts—they’re your go-to resource for navigating the challenges of your market, helping you fine-tune your strategy and operations with advice and knowledge.

We Encourage Collaboration Among Franchisees

Starting out as a new franchisee can feel overwhelming, but here’s the thing: every successful Blue Moon Estate Sales owner was once in your shoes. That’s why collaboration is at the heart of our community. We’ve built a network where franchisees can connect, share experiences, and trade advice. A quick chat with a fellow franchisee who’s already tackled something similar to what you’re experiencing can make all the difference. They’ll be able to share tips, recommend resources, and encourage you to take the leap with confidence.

This collaboration isn’t just for beginners, either. As your business grows, you’ll find yourself swapping marketing ideas, brainstorming ways to engage your community, or even partnering on regional projects with other franchisees. 

Being part of the Blue Moon family means you’re never navigating challenges—or celebrating wins—alone. From day one, you’ll have a community that’s ready to support you as you build your business and make a meaningful impact in your area.
