Just one week after launching its Seedrs equity crowdfunding campaign, on-demand, in home spa service Milk Beauty has successfully secured nearly £250,000. The company turning to the platform with a mission to raise £300,000 for an 18.76% equity stake.
Milk Beauty offers at home, in office and hotel treatments for Londoners, 10:00 am till 11:00 pm 7 days a week. Providing a dedicated and professional service tailored to meet the requirements of the customer, each appointment is delivered by one of Milk Beauty’s in-house therapists – offering the same quality and calibre of service every time. The all-female team, based in Hackney, is said to be creating 3 to 5 new jobs each month as the service grows.
The company stated:
“MILK Beauty is redefining how and when people experience beauty treatments — taking it from the high street to wherever they are. From massages, to manicures, pedicures, waxing, facials and tanning services, we’re there in customers’ homes, their offices, hotels and events anywhere across London, every day until late.
“We’re built on a reputation as the ‘perfect house guest’ through a one-of-a-kind operating model. With every trained therapist graduating from our in-house MILK Training Academy, we’re ensuring our service standards are consistently high. Thanks to our three hubs across London, therapists arrive swiftly, and treatments are delivered personally and professionally.”
Lucy Patterson, founder of Milk Beauty, previously stated:
“It is hugely rewarding to know that our therapists are consistently delivering 5* treatments and it is fantastic to see so many clients rebook their next treatment so quickly. It gives me and the team a real sense of accomplishment to honestly hear from customers about our high standards and friendly team.”
She then revealed:
“2016 is going to be an exciting year at Milk. To kick start our growth plans for next year we have launched a dedicated crowdfund through Seedrs. The fund raise will help take the brand to the next level. It is fantastic to see how successfully our campaign has launched. In the first 36 hours of the Seedrs fundraise we had raised £140,000, 47% of the £300,000 target.
“This high demand for shares in Milk illustrates the need and desire for this unique service for time-starved Londoners. We have priced shares in Milk very reasonably at £8.90 each which means all our customers and the Milk team can own a little piece of Milk and join us in realising our exciting growth plans for 2016.
“We are also thrilled that all of our existing investors have reinvested in Milk through the Seedrs fund raise.”
Milk Beauty’s Seedrs campaign is set to close in February.
