Color Me Mine Proves Continued Demand for Art-As-Entertainment Franchises

Proving wrong the perception that consumer spending trends lean heavily toward necessity items versus entertainment, robust sales and continued franchise growth of Color Me Mine, the leader in the paint-it-yourself ceramics industry, paints an entirely different picture.

In fact, Color Me Mine reports that average unit volumes at its 140 studios worldwide nearly double that of independently owned paint-it-yourself ceramic studios, and the company plans to double its system size with 280 franchised studios targeted worldwide in the next three to five years.

Color Me Mine represents 15 percent of U.S. ceramics locations but accounts for approximately 30 percent of the revenue stream in the industry. The concept provides consumers of all ages with a relaxing environment where groups can bond while expressing themselves creatively at the upscale art-as-entertainment studio. In addition, consumers have a fun place to escape from today's technologies, while combining a communal experience with a finished masterpiece to take home.

"The ceramics industry has been around with traditional pottery craft forms for more than 100 years, providing families with an atmosphere to spend quality time together through creative expression," said Mike Mooslin, president of Color Me Mine. "As the only global paint-it-yourself ceramics franchise, Color Me Mine works to bring contemporary, upscale pottery studios to consumers worldwide by offering a fun activity that has been bringing people together for more than 20 years." Founded in 1991, Color Me Mine's unique, family-centered environment became an instant hit among consumers. The company quickly expanded throughout California, before beginning franchising in 1996. Today, the company plans to target key markets throughout the United States for continued expansion, including Cincinnati, Dallas, Houston, Seattle, Long Island, Manhattan, and Upper New York, among others.

"There has never been a better time to grow with Color Me Mine," Mooslin said. "We have seen growth at the studio sales level while other retailers have experienced recession-related declines, continuing to surpass industry revenues by nearly double that of independent outlets. This is the perfect window of growth opportunity given the availability of high-quality locations and record low rents."
