I am opening my first of two Pennsylvania locations for this customer-driven, rapidly growing franchise. I am excited to be leveraging my leadership and sales & marketing skills acquired through a unique combination of corporate experience (Merck) and participating in the start-up of the first Planet Fitness franchise in the country. • Hand & Stone has a superior business model for subscription-based massage and facial services with an exceptional focus on the client experience.• People are increasingly recognizing the numerous health benefits of massages. Consequently, this is a market that has experienced significant growth within the last three years and has significant opportunity for even greater growth. • It is a business that can't be outsourced or disrupted by technology (e.g., automated, put online) and will provide recurring revenue.
