| Competition:
To date the business has not felt the need to carry out traditional advertising as it benefits greatly from the most effective form of marketing available, word of mouth recommendations and referrals. It does not even have signage at its site. This is an opportunity for a new owner to develop as would be the introduction of a company website. |
