location, location, location

After being let down and taking some time to regroup and seek advice, I decided to drive around and search for potential location options. I found several locations in South Charlotte, Ballantyne, Fort Mill and Indian Land. I stumbled upon another location in Fort Mill that I was interested in looking at. There was a sign on the door with the information of the listing agent, so of course-I called!

The listing agent transferred me to another listing agent ("Broker”), in the office. She was very enthusiastic and offered to help me find the PERFECT location. After chatting with her for some time, I became aware of why it was so important to have a broker working for me verses representing myself.

That afternoon she began sending me several different location options with all the leasing information. The next morning she called to let me know that she received word that the very same “dry bar” that I had been a customer at for several years, was coming available. She recommended that I call the current owner to see if they would be willing to give up their lease before the final contract date. In the meantime she was going to call the landlord and developers to let them know that Blow Out! Beauty & Dry Bar is interested in taking over an existing tenant’s salon space.

Months of negotiating went by then one day we got a call that the current owners decided to renew their lease and would not be offering up their space. Again, ANOTHER set back! We were now two for two and VERY discouraged.

A few weeks went by and I heard that there was going to be an Earth-fare coming to Fort Mill, SC. So, I reached out to the broker for information. Shocked by the cost of rent, but in love with the location, this was going to be the third possible location, but I knew it was PERFECT! The negotiating began.

And BELOW is the location of Blow Out! Beauty & Dry Bar…
