Thinking about selling your pool route?
Or want to trade some accounts to tighten your routes up?
I own Sunfish Pool Service here in Sacramento and I buy pool accounts from other owners in the area.
Save on the broker and commission fees. If it's a fit, I can close quick.
If you're just starting to think about it, that's fine too. There's no obligation and I'm always happy to connect with other pool business owners in Sac.
A simple screen shot of your route gets the conversation started.
What I'm looking for
- Your whole route However many accounts you have, in one sale.
- Part of it The stops that don't fit your days anymore. You keep the rest and keep working.
- Residential and commercial Both are fine.
- Routes with problems Green pools, old equipment, customers behind on payments. I buy all of them.
- Trades If you've got stops way outside your normal days, I'll look at swapping them for accounts closer to you. Tightens up both routes and nobody has to write a check.
I work Sacramento County and the surrounding areas. If you're outside that, send it anyways and let's see if we can make it work.
What a broker costs you
Most pool route brokers charge about two months of your billing when your route sells. That comes out of your check.
Put your own number in and see what that looks like. Nothing gets sent and nobody gets your information.
Your numbers
Use your monthly recurring service billing. Leave out repairs and one-time work.
Enter your monthly billing to see the number.
That comes off whatever you sell for, no matter what price you agree on. Selling direct doesn't have it.
How this goes
- You reach out Call me or shoot me a text.
- We talk Phone or coffee, whichever you'd rather. I'll ask about your accounts, your rates, and what you're trying to do, whether that's selling or just trading off some stops.
- I make you an offer Usually within a couple of days of seeing your billing. If it's a trade, I'll tell you which of my accounts could work for you.
- We close My main focus is a smooth transition and not losing any customers. I'll ride along and meet them so nobody gets a surprise. Your people get taken care of.
If you want to talk
Send me what you've got. How many accounts, roughly what you bill a month, and what areas they're in. A screenshot of your billing works fine. If you're looking to trade, just tell me which stops are the outliers.
If you're not ready yet, hang on to this for whenever you are. We'll talk soon.
Best,
Doug
