Second Skin Audio LLC - Has been sold Coupon code inside

[Anthony Collova 2]

A few years ago I listed my company; Second Skin Audio LLC for sale on a couple of websites.

Last year I decided to get serious about selling it, and decided to list it with a broker.

He did an amazing job for me, and in less than 4 months I received my first and only offer. I accepted, and over the last 3 months have been working closely with lawyers, my CPA, broker and the buyers to work out all the details.

The purpose of this announcement is to inform everyone that Anthony Collova is no longer the owner of the Second Skin company.

The new owner is a gentleman named Ken Kanefield. Him and his wife Sue sold their auto glass company, and bought 100% of Second Skin Audio LLC.

For the last 4 weeks I have been training the new owners in the daily operations of the company. I will remain on temporary staff for the rest of the year, helping with phone support for Ken and Sue.

The phone numbers, email addresses, and website details will all remain the same.

Products, prices, and shipping methods will also stay the same. The only change will be the person sitting behind the desk and answering the phone. Oh.. The desk however will be moved from Phoenix, where I live, to Tucson, where they reside.

My plans for the future are simple.

I am going to travel with my girlfriend and my dog.

We plan on living in a different state or country for 3 months at a time, for the next 2 years. First stop is Austin, then Chicago, then Manhattan. After NY, we will be moving to Rome, Madrid and London. Then we hit Asia.. All of this will start April 2011, after I compete in my first NPC body building competition (no joke).

I am ready, and have been ready to move on for quite some time.

I started the company with a $700 loan from my father, and managed to do pretty well for myself. I am MORE than happy with the way things have turned out. For now though, I want more from life, and plan on getting it while I am still young. I turned 35 yesterday and though I am semi retired, I still feel like I have a lot left to do in the business world.

I formed a new company called Collova Media Inc. and will soon be managing a portfolio of online businesses built from my own capitol. The goal is to work 3-5 hours per week, from anywhere in the world. So far I am well on my way!

I want to thank all of my friends and all of our customers for your continued support over the last 8+ years. I have learned a lot, and formed some great relationships. Without the support of the forums, members and vendors, I would not be nearly as successful as I have been. Your continued loyalty to the Second Skin brand and faith in my products means the world to me.

You can expect to see a new Second Skin Rep on the boards in my place. I am not sure what Ken is going to chose as a username, but I am sure it will be pretty obvious who he is.

Please help welcome him as the new owner of Second Skin Audio, and take care of your selves.

Yours in humility,

Anthony Collova

Best of luck to you man. Enjoy the world! Austin, TX is a pretty cool place to live/visit. You'll have to make the 30 minute trip down to San Antonio to check the sites as well. Oh and beware of the TERRRRRRRRRRIBLE drivers around here. Apparently road markings are invisible to most eyes around here.

On another note, will the new owners continue to keep us posted here at SSA with updates and such?

Just saw this........not gonna lie I am kinda bummed. I enjoyed having you guys in Pheonix. Gave me an excuse to travel up there.

Ken welcome as the new owner, and I am sure we will do some business. If you move the warehouse to Tucson we will definatly do even more business.

Anthony, I wish you the best in your BB career, and in all future prospects. Shoot me a PM and tell me more about the Media idea. I may have some things to bounce off you.
