$1.8M Rev – Premier Tattoo & Piercing Studio
Business Description
The business operates as a premium tattoo and piercing studio that provides body art services, professional piercing appointments, and high-end body jewelry retail in a major urban market. Its revenue comes from a diversified mix of artist station rentals, commission-based tattoo work, piercing services, jewelry sales, aftercare products, and transaction-related shop fees. The studio functions as both a customer-facing service provider and an operating platform for artists, giving tattooists and piercers access to a well-known location, client traffic, administrative support, and an established brand without needing to run their own standalone shop. What makes the business distinct is its long operating history, premium positioning, strong local reputation, experienced staff, professional service standards, and ability to sell higher-value jewelry products alongside core services. It also has built-in growth potential through unused artist stations, expanded retail merchandising, and additional marketing initiatives, making it a cash-flowing service business with both recurring revenue and upside from better capacity utilization.
