Things to consider when purchasing a spa business
As an owner of a spa business' you will be the recipient of personal and financial benefits. You will be your own boss and be satisfied that you are making other people happy and healthy. Spa businesses have therefore' become very popular due to the increased demand by customers.

The word ‘spa’ in Latin means health by water. While most spas offer water treatment' which is also known as hydrotherapy' you can also offer a variety of other services such as:

• Massaging
• Manicures and pedicures
• Hair styling
• Facials and skin treatment
• Makeup application
• Hair removal
• Full body treatment such as scrubs and wraps

If you wish to purchase a spa business' consideration of the following points will help you make the right selection.

1. Whether the spa has adhered to the licensing requirements.

2. Ask for the balance sheet of the business which should be certified by a CPA. This will tell you the most important information you need to know. The profitability of the business will be reflected in the audited accounts of the spa' which will give you an idea of what your expectations should be' and what the return of your investment will be.

3. Find out whether legal and financial guidelines have been complied with' in regard to the obligations to the nation' the state and the staff.

4. You should ensure that the spa you plan to buy is well located. The area should be convenient to the public with sufficient parking. Zoning requirements should also be complied with.

The first four points are crucial for the operation of any business. You can make your decision to purchase the establishment' based on the answers to the above.

5. If you are satisfied with the information you have so far received' you can write up a business plan which will act as your guide and will also be the document that will be presented to the financial institutions for obtaining the required funding for the business.

6. Recruiting competent staff is essential for the successful operation of the spa business. People come to a spa to be spoiled and pampered. Therefore' you should have friendly and courteous staff' who are also skilled in the speciality treatments that you offer.

7. The equipment should also be checked well' to ensure that the condition of the massage tables' hot tubs' saunas or steam rooms' hot beds (whether the insulation is effective)' and other available equipment meet with satisfactory standards and are tested for safety requirements.

If the spa business you wish to purchase conforms to all the requirements listed above' you can be satisfied to a great extent that you have made the right choice.
