This week’s episode dives into a highly unusual SMB opportunity: a pet crematorium in Miami-Dade County operating under the newly formed Resting Rainbow franchise. Listed at $1.5M, the business claims no competition and potential to hit $3M in revenue. It includes all major equipment (incinerator, walk-in cooler), but reported cash flow sits between $50K and $200K depending on which numbers you believe.
Key Highlights:
- Asking Price: $1.5M; EBITDA: $127K (claimed), Cash Flow: $50K
- Equipment includes incinerator, walk-in cooler, and office assets (FFE: $290K)
- Franchise fees include 7% royalty and $36K/year marketing
- Operates with vet partnerships and walk-ins; 74% of revenue from cremations
- Big risks: unclear brand identity, limited scale, no proven franchise model
