In today’s economy National Brands have the edge over the independent owner/operator, as consumers look to do business with brands they trust. With Rooter-Man, franchisees receive equity in Rooter-Man’s National Brand, by receiving Exclusive Use of the Rooter-Man Trademark in their territory (U.S. Patent Office registered Trademarks and System). Not only will your business grow with Rooter-Man’s National Brand, your ownership of Rooter-Man’s trademark in your territory will be an appreciating investment, which you may later sell or expand in the future.

Low Overhead

Rooter-Man’s Franchise System has no royalties as a percent of revenue, meaning Rooter-Man franchisees do not pay a royalty based on a percentage of sales. Rooter-Man royalty fees are a low flat rate fee based on population, making Rooter-Man a low cost franchise (Rooter-Man is currently rated in the Top 25 Low Cost Franchise Opportunities by Entrepreneur Magazine). Additionally, most Rooter-Man franchisees are able to begin their business in their homes, and therefore avoid high start-up costs due to rent, utilities, etc.

Professional Training

Rooter-Man’s thorough on-the-job training program can make you a drain cleaning specialist before you open your business. Rooter-Man training programs outline every aspect of running a successful business, from marketing to operations and human resources. Franchisees are provided with 11 comprehensive manuals that teach them the skills to master their business and the lessons learned from over 40 years of industry experience. Additionally, Rooter-Man Franchisees from across the country frequently host training events and seminars throughout the year (exclusively for Rooter-Man franchisees), inviting all Rooter-Man locations to visit and share their knowledge.

Ongoing & Dedicated Support

Rooter-Man’s continuous advisory service is as close as your phone for sticky problems. In addition to phone support and training programs, Rooter-Man’s Franchisee website offers online resources and tools which are available 24/7 to help you run your business.

Exclusive Discounts & Partnerships

Rooter-Man has taken the guess work out of “What equipment do I need?”, with a standardized equipment and purchasing plan, and exclusive discounts to leverage Rooter-Man’s national brand buying power. Franchisees may purchase other equipment if they choose, though all equipment necessary for Rooter-Man operations can be purchased through a subsidiary of Rooter-Man at discounted prices.

Networking with Over 580 Locations

We refer to becoming a Rooter-Man Franchisee as Joining the Rooter-Man Team, because that’s exactly what Rooter-Man is all about, teamwork. With a network of over 580 Rooter-Man locations the networking possibilities are endless, and the information sharing among Rooter-Man locations is one of the system’s strongest benefits.

A Mosquito Joe franchise is a seasonal business opportunity that can be run from virtually any home or office. It’s a great stand-alone business or a nice complement for someone with an existing home-based business, and it works well for owner-operators or investor-owners alike.

Unlike a retail business or restaurant where you have to count on customers to come to you, we acquire customers through effective marketing strategies and then travel to them every three weeks to provide our mosquito barrier treatments. Our service is high in demand, and our customers are happy to see us return regularly throughout the mosquito season so they can get outside and enjoy their yard again. This leads to powerful customer retention, which generates a high lifetime value per customer.

• Booming industry: The mosquito control industry is an emerging, high growth market experiencing widespread acceptance as a service homeowners and businesses value and desire. More and more families are choosing mosquito control companies like Mosquito Joe to make their yards bite-free during the summer months.
• Extensive training and support: No experience is necessary with the ongoing training and support you’ll receive from our team of experts across operations, marketing, finance and customer service.
• Low investment: Our low franchise fee and fast start up add up to a great low investment opportunity with limited staff needed and no retail location build-out necessary. A great deal of our franchisees successfully run their business out of their home!
• Recurring revenue business: Your long-range profit potential is high with Mosquito Joe, as residential and commercial customers continue to want mosquito control throughout the season and year after year.
• Feel-good business: Mosquito Joe provides a service that improves the quality of life for people in your community. Customers are overwhelmingly grateful for the chance to enjoy time together outside without the worry of being bitten or exposed to disease. Becoming a trusted partner in helping people enjoy their lives more is an added reward. Talk about good karma.

MaidPro started in a 200 square-foot office in Boston’s historic Beacon Hill in 1991. We have quickly grown to more than 200 locations across the U.S. and Canada. The MaidPro team knows first hand what it’s like to start, grow and own a business. Our powerful community is supported through regular conventions, retreats, conference calls, mentoring programs and online discussion forums. And, of course, MaidPro’s home office is always a phone call away.

Where Your Initial Investment Goes

There’s often confusion about where all that upfront money will go. Many people think the bulk of their investment is paid directly to the franchisor. Not with MaidPro. This MaidPro inspired chart breaks down your initial investment among the various expenses you’ll having during your first three months in business.

A Business That Fits Your Lifestyle

The housecleaning industry is PRO work-life balance. Unlike restaurant or retail industries, cleaning is done primarily within normal business hours. Customers want to come home to a clean living space; this creates a flexible schedule for you. MaidPro wants you to work ON your business, not IN your business. We will help make sure you are spending your work hours managing employees, selling new business and thinking about ways to expand.

Steady Business And Income

Recurring revenue is the hallmark of the cleaning industry. Home cleaning is essential, therefore the demand will always remain high. Most customers schedule weekly or bi-weekly cleanings; these will become the core of your business and provide a steady flow of income.
