Dear Impact Picture Framing Customers, Students & Teachers,

There comes a time that you just know you need to slow down and that you need to start a new chapter in your “Book of Life”.  

After being in the framing business for the past 39 years, I believe this time has come for me and so I have decided to put IMPACT Picture Framing up for sale. My husband and I will be returning to the Eastern Townships in Québec where I was raised to settle down and retire.

I am emailing all my contacts not only to let you know of my decision but to also see if someone would have an interest in continuing the growth of IMPACT Picture Framing and making it even stronger than ever.
Obviously continuing the art classes and having canvases for the students is important, as this was the sole purpose for the expansion in September last year, which has helped increase the company’s sales substantially.  I would hope to see this portion of the business continue.

The company comes with all of the equipment, moulding, mats, tools, furniture, computers, etc., to let it continue to function at full capacity.

I am offering to stay on full-time for 6 months to work with the new owner, in order that they learn the customer's needs, the system, ordering, and basic function of the day to day operations.  My fabulous staff have also expressed their desire to stay on with the new owner.
 
If you or anyone you know might be interested in the purchase of my company I am available to give a personal walk through with detailed explanation, and all the necessary documents to make the purchasing transition a smooth and easy one.

Please don't hesitate to contact me or share this news.

Thanks for so many great years together!

Sincerely,



Gaby Schlichter
Owner/Designer, IMPACT Picture Framing

Using alternative substrates for painting can really open up your artistic imagination and crank up your creativity! Stainless steel painting surfaces by Gotrick® provide a beautifully smooth working surface for oils, acrylics or other mediums. These premium panels are affixed to wood frames making them super  easy to hang. No primer is required prior to painting; simply apply varnish to protect your work once you're done!

These exciting new surfaces will be arriving at Impact Picture Framing shortly.

Let us take care of it for you!
