Thank you for your interest in www.RestaurantBizOps.com ! We consider it a great honor that you have invested your valuable time in exploring our website and services. All roads lead to one thing. Helping you achieve (as a buyer, tenant, seller, or landlord) restaurant business and property related sale and/or lease goals faster and at better price & terms than you may be able to achieve on your own.

www.RestaurantBizOps.com is owned and operated by Kimball & Company Restaurant Services, Inc. based in Raleigh, North Carolina which can be found at www.kimballandcompany.com . Our sincere goal is for RestaurantBizOps.com to be the industry standard for online restaurant business and location availability classifieds and added value services. www.RestaurantBizOps.com is one of, if not the ONLY, free Internet advertising services that is all inclusive of restaurant owners, tenants, sellers, landlords, and intermediaries. You can search for or sell/lease restaurant businesses AND restaurant related real property locations such as land, buildings and shopping center locations. All communications are free, direct, and at whatever confidentiality is desired. We are hopeful that RestaurantBizOps.com is the BEST logical choice for your restaurant sales and leasing needs.

Not only can you post a Standard Listing for free and search for free but even more importantly restaurant "business" opportunities can be searched for and posted but so can restaurant "real property" opportunities. These features are what sets us apart. "Businesses" include things like furniture, fixtures, equipment (F,F, & E), the value of a lease, willingness of the owner to terminate their lease, and possibly the value of the business profits with things like "buyers discretionary income" or "earnings before income taxes, depreciation, and amortization". A "business" is separate from the land, building, or lease although these things may be available in addition to the business.

"Real property" opportunities are restaurant related land, buildings, and shopping center locations, which may or may not be restaurant improved but are always ideally suited for a restaurant. "Restaurant improved" means restaurant related assets such as plumbing, electric, and leasehold improvements are in place because a restaurant was in this location previously. "Real property" opportunities do not include a business to purchase. As example, prospects may be looking for a restaurant business but they may also be open to the idea of finding a restaurant improved shopping center space that is available for lease where a restaurant went out of business.

You see, in 1983 I started as a one-man shop selling restaurant businesses exclusively. My first sale was a $20,000.00 pizza restaurant where the buyer counted out the cash at the completion of the transaction in the kitchen! Anyway, I quickly found out that people were interested in restaurant businesses but they were also interested in locations without having to purchase a business. Twenty plus years and hundreds of restaurant business brokerage, leases, and land and building sales later Kimball & Company - with six intermediaries working full time - is a one stop shop for restaurant people looking for both businesses AND locations in our area. In fact, we are proud to say we enjoy the greatest market share of any one business brokerage and commercial real estate firm specializing in restaurants in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill area of North Carolina and all the way to coastal North Carolina.

So, through the years, I've earned my Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) designation and have sat on the Council of International Restaurant Brokers (CIRB) and have achieved a certain level of success to be proud of - but I was always frustrated by the fact that it was very difficult to reach national exposure. I wasn't really interested in franchising as example as this sounded like a lot of work and very high risk to the franchisee as restaurant brokerage is highly specialized.

www.RestaurantBizOps.com is a tool for you to use which does reach out on a national level through the power of the internet. www.RestaurantBizOps.com was in the idea phase for years. I really did lay awake at night and think about how this should work. There were three important principals that I felt were absolute. In addition to truly helping restaurant people achieve sale and/or lease goals faster and at better price & terms than they may be able to achieve on your own; the business had to have the highest level of integrity, it had to make money, and it had to be fun.

Well, here we are. ( If you've read this far I congratulate you! ) I hope these goals have been reached. By offering a free Standard Listing exchange I feel at minimum we can help a lot of restaurant business or property owners or landlords sell or lease their restaurant opportunity "direct" without paying a dime. That's ok. I call that pay back to an industry that has treated me very well. On the other hand, if a principal restaurant owner, as example, contacts us because they need to find a competent, qualified intermediary we can earn a referral commission by finding the best source to help them. If someone who wants their listing to appear first in search results and wants a better, full page display of their restaurant opportunity we can do that also - by upgrading a listing to a Premium Listing . A Premium Listing does require a monthly investment but If a Premium Listing doesn't get results within the very first month we give the Premium Listing money back. (Remember the high level of integrity we talked about?)

Maybe you want to know what restaurants opportunities have sold for in your market in order to price your restaurant properly. Contact us - we probably have the comparable sales information . Maybe you just need a sounding board of consulting advice . We're here for that also.

Sincerely,
Jack
