Salon Specific Listings?
Hello BP community! My name is AJ and I am new to this community. Like many of you, I love the content and am eager to get to network with like minded individuals. I am a commercial real estate investor in Tampa/Sarasota and am looking to build out my team to take down a deal soon. I focus predominately on flex industrial but am venturing into mixed use and retail as well.
I am also an entrepreneur who recently soft launched a beauty specific real estate website: Think of Zillow/Loopnet exclusively for beauty practitioners. I've found that this type of small beauty space (like salon suites/booths) can only really be found and advertised on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. There are daily rental sites like Shearshare but I don't think they hit the mark at all.
The problem I face is that in order to get started, I need the spaces to list on the website. I can't just take these listings form FB marketplace so I was wondering if anyone out there had any ideas on how to target salon owners or property managers with these types of spaces? The site is 100% free to use so I am really just trying to get the supply so I have something to advertise. As it stands now, I am just going to go down the yellow pages for Salons and try to offer free advertising to any owners with vacancies in their salons or go to Linked In and target owners that way.
In any case, I appreciate any and all feedback!
