The New Work Environment: Home-Based Franchise Opportunities

The unique venture to become a Blue Moon Estate Sale franchise owner allows you to make positive changes in the lives of those around you and grants the freedom of working from home. Make the change today and discover the never-ending benefits of a home-based franchise opportunity with Blue Moon Estate Sales.

Growth in the Estate Sale Industry

Against shifting consumer preferences and a heightened focus on sustainable living, the estate sale industry has experienced substantial growth over the past five years, increasing by 1.8%. By the close of 2024, the industry is anticipated to reach an estimated $230 million. The demand for estate sale professionals has been fueled not only by evolving shopping habits but also by larger economic factors.

As inflation and interest rates skyrocketed throughout 2022 and 2023, home foreclosures increased the demand for experienced estate sale professionals. At Blue Moon Estate Sales, we provide a platform for franchisees to tap into this thriving market. As the industry continues to expand, franchisees stand to benefit not only from the increasing demand for estate sale services but from the cultural shift toward community-oriented shopping experiences.

Working From Home: The New Normal

Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic, work environments have changed drastically. No longer are employees venturing into the office and working the typical 9 to 5 job. Instead, they’re working from the comfort of their homes, embracing the meaning of “work-life balance.” In fact, 74% of employees are happier when they work from home, which is why Blue Moon Estate Sales has adapted this concept to fit our growing franchise.

Joining an estate sale franchise offers a variety of advantages that extend beyond traditional entrepreneurship. Take a closer look at how a home-based franchise opportunity can elevate your life and provide a solid foundation for success.

Reduced Commute Time

Rather than leaving the house 30+ minutes earlier for work each morning—running the risk of being late or missing out on a hot cup of coffee—Blue Moon Estate Sale franchisees can relish a reduced commute each day. Turn on your laptop in your home office, accept client calls in your living room, and take on clients that are located in your franchise market.

At Blue Moon Estate Sales, we organize our franchisees into varying “districts,” ensuring that each territory is accounted for and no one has to travel long distances for clients. The homeowners you’ll be working with will be within your territory, making your commute to host their estate sale much quicker—saving you time, frustration, and money on gas.

Financial Savings

When starting your own business, there are a variety of costs to consider that can quickly break the bank and stress you out. In contrast, becoming a Blue Moon Estate Sale franchisee offers a cost-effective solution, thanks to an established business model, ample training and support, and much more.

• Established Business Model: Joining the Blue Moon Estate Sale franchise provides access to a proven and established business model. You’ll benefit from the experience and expertise of the franchisor, which can reduce the risks associated with starting a business from scratch. This includes best practices, operational guidelines, and marketing strategies that have been refined over time.
• Brand Recognition: Joining a well-known estate sale franchise provides immediate brand recognition in the local (and national) market. This can lead to faster customer acquisition and reduce marketing expenses compared to building a brand from scratch.
• Operational Support: Blue Moon Estate Sales offers ongoing operational support to franchisees, regardless of whether you’ve just joined our franchise program or have been with us for years. This includes assistance with employee management, software systems, item pricing assistance, customer loyalty programs, and more.
• Networking Opportunities: Being part of a franchise network provides opportunities for networking with other franchisees. This can lead to shared resources, insights, and collaborative efforts, potentially leading to cost savings through shared knowledge.

Schedule Flexibility

Working in an office environment doesn’t always allow you the freedom to spend your workday the way you want. You have meetings overlapping lunch, and you can get stuck at the office later than expected. This lack of flexibility can lead to challenges in maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

At Blue Moon Estate Sales, we believe every franchisee should have the flexibility to create their own schedule. We understand that life’s demands can vary, and by empowering our franchisees to create flexible work hours, we enhance job satisfaction and productivity. In fact, over 90% of workers report being more productive in their own working styles when they’re working remotely.
