WHAT IS A FRANSHIP?
Our business opportunity looks and acts like a franchise, but with the independence of a sole proprietorship. The reason we say it’s like a franchise is because we provide you with all the expertise and proven techniques you expect to find when you invest tens of thousands of dollars in a franchise, except we do it for a whole lot less.
Buying a franchise eliminates the rough road of self-learning, but with most, there’s very little leeway to try something new or execute your own ideas.
You also have to contend with limited growth potential due to territorial boundaries and extensive contracts that have to be renewed every few years for you to continue operating the franchise.
We sold franchises many years ago, so we know all about the advantages and disadvantages of owning a maid service franchise. What we experienced in just a short time was that almost everyone learned everything they needed to know to be successful in their business in the first several months of working with them.
So I ask you, what is the advantage of franchise ownership if long-term support is not needed and there’s not any national advertising to build name recognition for your business?
This was the problem we encountered when franchisees became frustrated because of ongoing royalty fees. It is and has always been important to us to have a positive relationship with our customers. We found that it is much easier to maintain a happy working relationship with our clients if they are not financially obligated to us.
