About Us: The Blue Moon Estate Sales Story - blu072815-011_(1)


Our Story | From Kitchen Table to Enterprise

Ken and Deb Blue moved from Lake Geneva Wisconsin to Raleigh North Carolina in 2008. Within a month of moving, the height of the recession had hit, and Ken had to find a new career. Having always had a passion for antiques, Ken and Deb decided to start their own estate sale business. Blue Moon's first sale was held in a 1200 sp. ft. double-wide trailer in what could be described as the middle of nowhere. After all of the expenses, Ken barely broke even, but he had found his dream job. He continued to hold sales, and Blue Moon Estate Sales continued to grow. 

One day, Deb passed a billboard that read, "Franchise your business," and a lightbulb went off. She looked at the fragmented, unregulated estate sale market as an opportunity to set new standards. After much convincing, Ken's son, David Blue, joined his family in making this dream a reality. 

With their vision and core values in place, the Blues set out to expand. On June 1, 2013, Blue Moon Estate Sales officially began its franchising journey. Today, Blue Moon has locations across the United States and continues to grow each quarter.

We practice integrity every day. Our goal is to provide the most honest and professional estate liquidation services in the country, complete with understandable systems, clear guidelines and true transparency. Our goal is to set new industry standards.
Accountability
As a brand, it is incredibly important to us to provide great service on a consistent basis. It is not only what we do, but what we don’t do that matters. To continue leading the industry, we must take responsibility for our actions, hold ourselves accountable as business owners and act as brand ambassadors to customers and clients.
Growth Mindset
We ask that every franchise owner learns and embraces a growth mindset. It is important not only to improve as a business owner but to have a continued thirst for knowledge and improvement in everything you do. Growth comes from an inner desire and the continued action of learning and seeking experience.
Effective Communication
Within our organization, effective communication is a must as there are multiple levels of the business in which we need to communicate. Whether it is speaking with clients, customers or fellow members of the community, effective communication is key.
Grit
To quote Angela Duckworth, "Grit is passion and perseverance for very long term goals. It is sticking with your future day in and day out not just for the week, or the month, but for years." The services we provide to our community and the smiles on the faces of the people we serve motivate us to continue on through the best and worst days of the job.
