Rick Maerkle
Asheville Business Brokers
Serving Buncombe County, NC
I own and operate two Business Broker Businesses, Indian River Business Brokers and Asheville Business Brokers. Florida & North Carolina, my residence is in Sebastain Florida and Mike Burk is manager of Asheville North Carolina. In 1994 I purchased Brevard Business Brokers in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I later obtained the name Florida Business brokers & opened other Business Brokerages in Florida. Again, I opened Business Broker Offices in Maine and North Carolina and changed the Name to American Investment Brokers. Now, 28 years later, Living in the Asheville Area of North Carolina, I changed the Business Name to Asheville Business Brokers, serving the Western North Carolina Area. I still enjoy helping people sell or buy businesses. Contact me for a confidential conversation. Thanks, Rick Maerkle

Buy or Sell a Service Business
Service businesses are some of the most commonly listed for sale on BizBuySell, and include a wide range of people and process driven companies that sell expertise or labor rather than physical products. Common businesses are home and commercial services (cleaning, inspections, renovation, HVAC, automotive services), business services (marketing, signage, printing, brokerage, coworking), route based and asset light operations (parking management, entertainment routes), and franchised service brands. These businesses typically operate on contract , project , or recurring service models, generating revenue through service fees, ongoing maintenance agreements, route accounts, memberships, or territory based franchises, often with relatively low inventory requirements and scalable staffing.
