Husband & Wife Team Up to Deliver Quality Pre-owned Apple ® Products & Services at a Great Cost
Experimac is your go-to for all your Apple® needs!

When Barry Barnett and his wife, Tara, decided to go into business together, they didn't want to own just any business. They started by looking at different options for buying a franchise and settled on Experimac of Kennesaw.
"As we began to work with a franchise broker (Find Your Franchise, Inc.), Experimac was one of the first brands introduced after understanding our backgrounds and interests," said Barry Barnett." We were hesitant to decide so quickly, so we continued to look at about a dozen other brands. We kept coming back to Experimac!"
Experimac is a company that buys and sells pre-owned Apple ® products and offers repair services. No doubt, the fact that Barnett's family has owned numerous Apple products helped them make their decision.
"Over the years, our family has owned iMacs, MacBook Air laptops, iPhones, iPads, iPods, etc.," said Barnett. "So we are absolutely believers in the product."

They were also drawn to Experimac's business model. "Experimac is such a compelling business model focused on growing ownership of Apple ® products and providing existing owners an alternative Apple ® experience," said Barnett. "We offer a one-stop home for Apple ® quality and value."
Barnett sees the growing prevalence of technology as something that can only help him in his new business venture.

"It's amazing how technology is expanding in and out of the classroom," said Barnett. "The pre-owned options we have in stock will absolutely meet the needs of students as well as adults for personal and professional needs."
The benefit to owning a franchise is the franchise owners can focus on building relationships in their community while leveraging the franchisor’s core support capabilities. That focus on community is exactly what Barnett plans to bring to the table.
"Our vision is to be a successful business by really connecting with our local community," said Barnett. "That connection will occur by meeting the Apple ® needs of our community in a very personal way. We have already begun building a strong relationship with our neighborhood businesses, churches and schools, including Kennesaw State University.”
Their first store will be located at 125 Barrett Parkway, Ste 108, Marietta, GA 30066.
This location will service Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, Woodstock, Acworth and Holly Springs.
It also serves Kennesaw State University and the Dobbins Air Reserve Base. If they are successful, Barnett hopes to expand and open other stores in the area. "The sky's the limit!"
