FRANCHISING TRIUMPHS

Celebrating the Best Brands and Visionary Entrepreneurs of 2023

s the year draws to a close, it's time to reflect on the dynamic landscape of franchising, where innovation meets entrepreneurship to shape the future of business. In our annual Year End special edition of Franchise Journal, we celebrate the trailblazers, the risk-takers, and the visionaries who have not only built successful franchises but have also left an indelible mark on the global business community. Join us as we highlight some of the best brands in franchising and showcase the notable achievements of companies and entrepreneurs who make the world go around. 2023 was a year of significant growth for Franchise Journal as we grew our readership and launched a European and Vietnamese issue. These will be followed in 2024 with other international issues that serve to bring US brands abroad as well as highlight the local entrepreneurs in various countries that bring their vision to life through franchising. In the vast universe of franchising, many brands have stood out, setting new benchmarks for excellence and success. The legacy of the Pandemic era has been entrepreneurship spreading like wildfire as people have looked to control their time and income through business ventures. Concurrently, the vast number of new franchise offerings into the market has created multiple opportunities for these investors as well as business creators. Franchises that successfully navigate the complexities of global markets deserve special recognition. As US brands expand internationally, many international brands that have long eyed

AS WE BID FAREWELL TO ANOTHER YEAR, THE FRANCHISING WORLD STANDS AS A TESTAMENT TO THE POWER OF INNOVATION, DEDICATION, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP. the US for expansion decided to make the leap into the largest global franchise market and set up operations here. In an era where consumers increasingly value businesses that contribute to social and environmental causes, many franchises have emerged as champions of corporate responsibility. From fitness to food, there are a myriad of ways that businesses have shown that they are stewards of their communities. Another inspiration are the healthcare franchises that go beyond providing medical services. While there is a significant need for medical care across the spectrum, franchising has given many practitioners ways to continue to follow their avocation through active engagement in community health initiatives, offering educational programs, wellness workshops, and affordable healthcare services to underserved populations. This commitment to social impact has not only garnered positive attention but has also established franchise models as a significant contributor in the healthcare sector.

Behind every successful franchise is a visionary entrepreneur with the courage to pursue their dreams. In this issue, we shine a spotlight on individuals who have overcome challenges and achieved remarkable success. These stories and studies serve to empower future leaders in business to look at the world critically and think about how they can make a difference through business creation and ownership. When looking at the many younger entrepreneurs who are entering the franchise space with their energy and technological sophistication, it is a certainty that while the world will be a different place in the future, the core tenets of entrepreneurship will remain the same. As we bid farewell to another year, the franchising world stands as a testament to the power of innovation, dedication, and entrepreneurship. The brands and entrepreneurs highlighted in this special edition of Franchise Journal have not only achieved remarkable success but have also contributed to the everevolving landscape of franchising. As we look ahead to the future, it is clear that the world of franchising will continue to thrive and

adapt, driven by the passion and determination of individuals who dare to dream big. Cheers to the best brands, the visionary entrepreneurs, and the remarkable achievements that make franchising an exciting and dynamic force in the global business community. Chantae Arrington and Brenda Lesch along with the entire team at Franchise Journal have done an amazing job over the course of the year publishing the issues that matter to entrepreneurs. The hundreds of contributors, franchisors and franchisees who contributed and were highlighted mean the world to us. As we get ready to enter our 5th year of publication we are more excited about the future global opportunities than ever.

Essential Tips for Building a Robust Franchise System

by Graeme McKinninon, Franchise Consultant - UK, The Franchise Consulting Company

xpanding a successful business through franchising offers a pathway to rapid growth and widespread market presence. However, creating a robust franchise system requires meticulous planning and strategic execution. Here are seven pivotal tips to establish a strong foundation for your franchise endeavor:

1. Solidify Your Business Model: Before franchising, ensure your business model is scalable and replicable. Document every operational aspect, from processes and procedures to branding guidelines and customer service standards. A well-

defined model forms the blueprint for consistency across multiple franchise locations. 2. Develop Comprehensive Franchisee Support: Establish comprehensive training programs covering all facets of running the business. Support franchisees with ongoing assistance, operational guidance, and marketing strategies. A prime example is the renowned fitness franchise, Anytime Fitness, which provides extensive training and operational support, fostering franchisee success. 3.Legal Clarity and Compliance: Engage legal experts specializing in franchising to draft robust

franchise agreements, ensuring compliance with local regulations. Clarity regarding fees, royalties, territory rights, and obligations protects both franchisors and franchisees and avoids legal disputes down the line. 4. Selecting the Right Franchisees: Choose franchisees who align with your brand's values, vision, and work ethic. Prioritize individuals passionate about your business and equipped with the necessary skills to drive success. The clothing retailer, Superdry, attributes its global success to partnering with franchisees who resonate with the brand's ethos.

5.Scalable Technology and Systems: Invest in scalable technology platforms and systems that streamline operations and facilitate communication between franchisor and franchisees. Implementing cloud-based solutions like inventory management and CRM tools ensures consistency and efficiency across locations. 6. Marketing and Branding Consistency: Maintain a consistent brand

image and marketing strategy across all franchise outlets. Provide marketing materials, campaigns, and guidelines to ensure uniformity while allowing room for localized initiatives within the broader brand framework. 7. Continuous Improvement and Adaptability: Stay agile and open to feedback. Regularly assess and refine operational processes based on

franchisee input and market trends. Adaptability and a willingness to evolve are crucial in sustaining a successful franchise system. Building a robust franchise system demands dedication, foresight, and meticulous planning. By implementing these tips, businesses can lay the groundwork for a successful and enduring franchise venture.

Best Franchisors of 2023 by Seth Lederman, Consultant, The Franchise Consulting Company

t’s been a good year for franchising. The recently released 2023 Franchising Economic Outlook report by the International Franchise Association (IFA) indicated that franchise unit and job growth continue to surpass pre-pandemic levels. Even with ongoing economic uncertainty across the nation and world, franchises deliver jobs and business ownership opportunities for many entrepreneurs. Here’s more insight from the report: • The number of franchise establishments will increase

by almost 15,000 units in 2023, or 1.9%, to 805,000 units in the U.S. • Franchising will add approximately 254,000 jobs in 2023. Total franchise employment is forecasted to reach 8.7 million, growing at 3.0%. • The total output of franchised businesses — the measure of total economic activity in nominal dollars — will increase by 4.2% to $860.1 billion in 2023, up from $825.4 billion in 2022. If you have been contemplating entering the world of franchising, now may

DECEMBER 2023 | WWW.FRANCHISEJOURNAL.COM

be the right time. But how can you determine which is the best franchisor for you? Let’s consider some things that make a franchisor the best. VISION AND SUPPORT Think of franchising as a recipe—it requires certain ingredients to turn out well. Building a thriving franchise system requires strategic vision, effective leadership, and a commitment to supporting franchisees. Without this unique blend of qualities, a

franchise network will struggle to succeed, no matter how popular its product or service is. It all starts with a proven and replicable business model. This model serves as the blueprint for franchisees, providing a roadmap to success. It should be wellestablished, demonstrating profitability and sustainability over time. A franchisor must be able to convey this model clearly and comprehensively to prospective franchisees, instilling confidence in the viability of the business. Franchisee support is a linchpin of success. Providing comprehensive training

business for themselves, not by themselves. A franchisor must communicate effectively to optimize that possibility. Open lines of communication create a collaborative environment where feedback is valued, concerns are addressed promptly, and improvements can be made collectively. Communication allows the franchisor to express expectations and will enable franchisees to be heard. But the best communication occurs when the franchisor operates honestly and transparently, providing clear information about costs, expectations, and potential

understanding of when and how to expand operations. Strategic growth is a hallmark of a successful franchisor. While expansion is a common goal, it should be approached strategically. A good franchisor focuses on quality over quantity, ensuring that new franchisees align with the brand’s values and standards. Thoughtful expansion leads to a more robust and sustainable franchise system. TOP 2023 FRANCHISOR A great example of a franchisor that is excelling is The Vital Stretch. The fitness and wellness industry is booming,

THE GOAL IS NOT TO BE BETTER THAN THE OTHER MAN, BUT YOUR PREVIOUS SELF. — THE DALAI LAMA programs, ongoing support, and resource access are essential elements. Most importantly, this support must extend beyond the initial stages of onboarding. Support from the franchisor should also include marketing assistance, operational guidance, and continuous education to help franchisees navigate challenges as they arise. A good franchisor understands that individual franchisees’ success contributes to the franchise system’s overall success. ALL ABOUT COMMUNICATION One of the things that draws so many to the world of franchising is the opportunity to be in

challenges. Integrity and transparency are vital in a business relationship and create a collaborative and positive working environment. OPENNESS TO CHANGE Finally, the best franchisors embrace innovation and change. As evidenced during the pandemic, the franchising landscape is ever-evolving, and a good franchisor stays ahead of the curve. This involves keeping the brand and its offerings relevant, embracing new technologies, and anticipating market trends. An ability to adapt to changing circumstances ensures the franchise system remains resilient and competitive. Connected to this is an

with a 2023 report from the IHRSA, the Global Health and Fitness Association, revealing about 80% of their survey respondents anticipate membership and revenue to grow by more than 5% this year. Not only has the industry bounced back from the pandemic in a big way, but it is expanding into new areas, including the stretch industry, which has emerged and is comparable to yoga and Pilates. As a clinically based assisted-stretching fitness and wellness franchise, The Vital Stretch is about bringing fitness and wellness to everyone’s community. When it comes to vision and support, The Vital Stretch easily checks both boxes. Potential

WWW.FRANCHISEJOURNAL.COM | DECEMBER 2023

franchisees can feel confident with The Vital Stretch’s assisted-stretching method developed by trained clinicians. Stretching has evidence-based science behind its benefits. Personalized one-on-one assisted stretching appeals to a broad population looking for injury recovery, graceful aging, and more effortless everyday movement. In terms of support, The Vital Stretch provides: • A comprehensive training package. • Industry-leading CRM, marketing, and sales tools to nurture leads, boost brand awareness, and increase revenue. • Assistance in developing and designing an easier, more cost-effective opening. What about communication? Again, The Vital Stretch is top in its class thanks to monthly membership gatherings for franchisees and a thorough training program — the Vital Stretch Academy, the franchisor’s extensive online learning management system. Speaking of growth and change, while one-on-one assisted stretching may be a new addition to the health and wellness space, its innovative take on wellness is quickly catching on. The Vital Stretch method was created by a physical therapist and a chiropractic physician to offer a safe, effective, and deeply relaxing stretch experience. Vital Stretch Practitioners (VSPc) are trained and certified to deliver an exceptional assisted stretch experience. The experience starts with a thorough intake assessment before discussing

flexibility goals that will allow clients to feel looser, lighter, and fully alive. With different involvement levels, such as owner-operated and executive franchise models, The Vital Stretch is winning raves from customers who love the semiprivate stretch spaces, boutique environment, and elevated stretching experience. What makes The Vital Stretch one of the best of 2023 is the franchisor goes the extra mile to understand each body’s unique composition to tailor stretches for optimal results. The best franchisors combine a proven business model with effective communication, innovation, support, and strategic growth. A franchisor creates

A YEAR IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP My Journey as a High School Senior Contributor to Franchise Journal by Max Neonakis

ey there, readers! As I sit down to reflect on the past year, it's hard to believe that my journey as a high school senior writing for Franchise Journal magazine will be coming to an end in a few months. The whirlwind of experiences, opportunities, and lessons learned in the world of entrepreneurship has been nothing short of extraordinary.

When I first started contributing to Franchise Journal, I never imagined the impact it would have on my understanding of business, innovation, and the entrepreneurial spirit. As a wide-eyed high school senior, the magazine became my gateway to a realm I had only glimpsed in textbooks and documentaries. One of the most significant

DECEMBER 2023 | WWW.FRANCHISEJOURNAL.COM

aspects of this journey has been the steep learning curve. Being a high school student in a world dominated by seasoned professionals was both exhilarating and challenging. The early days were marked by a series of late-night research sessions, crash courses in franchise terminology, and the occasional blank stare at industry jargon that felt like a foreign language. However, with each article, I found myself delving deeper into the intricacies of entrepreneurship. From understanding the franchise business model to exploring the intricacies of market trends, every assignment became a window into a world that was not only fascinating but also increasingly accessible. What struck me most profoundly was the opportunity to connect with visionary entrepreneurs who are shaping the business landscape. Interviewing successful franchise owners, hearing their stories, and understanding the passion that drives them was both inspiring and humbling. As a high school senior, the exposure to entrepreneurship

THESE ARTICLES HAVE BEEN A JOURNEY OF PERSONAL AND INTELLECTUAL GROWTH, A STEPPING STONE INTO THE WORLD OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THAT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY SHAPE MY FUTURE ENDEAVORS. education through my work with Franchise Journal has been transformative. It goes beyond the theoretical knowledge acquired in the classroom, providing a realworld perspective on the challenges and rewards of building and sustaining a business. The stories of entrepreneurs who started with a simple idea, faced setbacks, adapted to changes, and ultimately succeeded have instilled in me a sense of resilience and determination. It's not just about making money; it's about making a difference, leaving a mark, and contributing to something larger than oneself. Another learning moment was in the connection between generations. Even though we all have different experiences, we are bound together. The online and technology tools that I take for granted are in great demand by older generations. The other learning was that even before computers, the accomplishments of past generations were as great as our own. They just did it a different way. I had never heard of a “Rolodex” before I spoke with my grandparents but it really is the older equivalent of what we carry in our pocket today. Speaking of

that, can you imagine a world where there was no internet, no cell phones, no ability to do zoom calls and yet, somehow, we got done what needed to be done. In an era dominated by digital media, the experience of contributing to a renowned magazine has given me insights into the ever-evolving landscape of online journalism. Learning to navigate content management and engage with a digital audience has been an invaluable part of my journey. The exposure to the digital side of journalism has opened my eyes to the power of storytelling in the online space. It's not just about the words on the page; it's about crafting narratives that resonate with readers, spark conversations, and drive positive change. As I prepare for the next chapter of my life, I carry with me the lessons and experiences gained during this remarkable year. The journey with Franchise Journal has not only deepened my appreciation for entrepreneurship but has also fueled my aspirations to explore this dynamic field further in my college years. To my fellow high school students, I encourage you to seek opportunities beyond the classroom, to engage with

real-world experiences that challenge and inspire you. Entrepreneurship is not just a subject; it's a mindset, a way of thinking that empowers individuals to turn ideas into reality. These articles have been more than a journalistic venture. It has been a journey of personal and intellectual growth, a stepping stone into the world of entrepreneurship that will undoubtedly shape my future endeavors. Cheers to the lessons learned, the connections made, and the endless possibilities that lie ahead! Thank you for reading my articles, it is really an honor that you took the time to read these and I am grateful for you!

Husband and Wife Team Create BEST WELLNESS FRANCHISE to Meet Growing Need by Dr. Rob and Melissa Goldring, Owners, The Vital Stretch

hen it comes to setting New Year trends, health and wellness industries tend to lead the pack. That’s not surprising considering they serve one of the United States’ largest, most monied populations – those aged 65 and older. With an average net worth valued at $1.22 million in 2019, these aging boomers are looking to spend their hardearned money on preventative treatments to help enhance and prolong their lives. No wonder health and wellness franchises seem to be recession-resilient. This longer-living population which, according to the WHO will almost double by 2050, is a key societal driver impacting healthcare in 2024. As a result, Forbes predicts this coming year will see a generous “shift from reactive to proactive approaches” in healthcare and despite worries about an economic downturn, there doesn’t appear to be a slowdown on spending when it

comes to health and wellness. Ready to serve this growing group is Melissa and Robert Goldring’s upscale, clinically based, customized assisted stretching franchise, The Vital Stretch®. What Sets The Vital Stretch Apart Designed and developed by two clinicians, The Vital Stretch has a corner on the preventative care market.

DECEMBER 2023 | WWW.FRANCHISEJOURNAL.COM

Melissa and Rob’s unique perspectives as clinical experts, not just entrepreneurs, allowed them to create an elevated experience for their clients that differs from other stretching studios in the field. “We have been treating patients for years,” says Melissa. “In working one on one with so many

different patients, we’ve gotten to know exactly how they’re feeling and what works best for treating their individual pain, as well as what will get them closer to their wellness goals.” “That’s why we took so long to devise our program,” Rob explains. “We invested years conducting research to ensure we had the most up-to-date, effective technology to help our clients improve their mobility, increase their range of movement, and improve posture, all by using our unique assistant stretching technique.” How The Vital Stretch Works Certified Vital Stretch Practitioners (VSPs) use our customized method to help clients get the most out of their stretches. By using a combination of static stretching, dynamic stretching, and targeted mobility, VSPs create a deeper, more relaxing stretch. Their bespoke methods encourage peak recovery, create everyday ease, aid in injury healing, and help clients

age gracefully. Not bad! All those hours Melissa and Rob put into developing their company have definitely paid off. Today, The Vital Stretch sees clients of all ages and lifestyles and in the future, their new franchises will do the same across the country in its many locations. They may come for different reasons, but their results are the same – ultimate relaxation, healing, and improved flexibility. That’s how The Vital Stretch Method was born. Why The Vital Stretch Will Remain Stable in a Recession As stated by Kory Kantenga, Ph.D, a Senior Economist at LinkedIn, “typically, industries that contribute to quality of life – like utilities or consumer services – remain stable and may even see increasing employment throughout recessions.” Even at a time when many are choosing to reduce unnecessary expenses, research proves that consumers are less willing to make sacrifices when it comes to their health and wellness. According to a study by Restore, 62 percent of participants said, “preventative health and wellness activities would be the last thing they cut back on.” A further 25 percent of

those studied claimed they couldn’t go a week without engaging in preventative health and wellness activities before feeling negative physical and mental effects.

Entrepreneurial Frenzy and Basketball Magic Collide in the Nation’s Capital:

Kyle Kuzma and The Great American Franchise Expo by Ted O'Shea, Director, The Great American Franchise Expo

A Slam Dunk of Inspiration and Business Brilliance at Dulles Expo Center

n the heart of the nation's capital, where politics and power often take center stage, a different kind of excitement unfolded at the Dulles Expo Center. The Washington DC leg of The Great American Franchise Expo turned this venue into a bustling arena of innovation, where entrepreneurs, investors, and business enthusiasts converged to explore the latest trends in the dynamic franchise landscape. However, what truly set this event apart was the star-studded appearance of NBA luminary Kyle Kuzma, who brought not only his on-court prowess but also his entrepreneurial spirit to the spotlight. Known for his standout performances on the basketball court, Kyle Kuzma has recently embarked on a new journey, venturing into the world of business with his new partnership with Mahana Fresh. The expo provided the perfect stage for

Kuzma to showcase not just his skills in the paint but also his acumen in the business realm. Attendees were treated to an intimate glimpse of the NBA star's transition from the hardwood to the boardroom. Mahana Fresh, Kuzma's latest venture, takes center stage in the healthy dining arena. With a commitment to fresh and nutritious ingredients, Mahana Fresh offers a menu designed to cater to the diverse tastes and nutritional needs of its customers. As Kuzma passionately shared the Mahana Fresh vision, attendees were not just offered a taste of wholesome dining but a window into the convergence of athletic discipline and entrepreneurial flair. The expo floor buzzed with a palpable energy as attendees eagerly lined up to catch a glimpse of Kyle Kuzma in the flesh. Many donned basketball jerseys and clutched memorabilia, hoping to secure a prized signature from the

NBA sensation. Kuzma, in his element, graciously engaged with fans, sharing anecdotes from his basketball journey and offering insights into the

KNOWN FOR HIS STANDOUT PERFORMANCES ON THE BASKETBALL COURT, KYLE KUZMA HAS RECENTLY EMBARKED ON A NEW JOURNEY, VENTURING INTO THE WORLD OF BUSINESS WITH HIS NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH MAHANA FRESH. demanding yet rewarding world of entrepreneurship. The dulcet tones of basketballs hitting the court were replaced by the hum of excitement as Kuzma's presence added a touch of star power to an already vibrant event. In a poignant moment, Kuzma used the platform not just to promote Mahana Fresh but also to shine a spotlight on the Kyle Kuzma Family Foundation. This nonprofit

organization is dedicated to positively impacting the lives of single mothers and enhancing the lives of their children. It was a reminder that, for Kuzma, success extends beyond the boardroom, and philanthropy is an integral part of his journey. As the curtains fell on The Great American Franchise Expo in Washington DC, the echoes of entrepreneurial

inspiration and basketball magic lingered. Kyle Kuzma, with Mahana Fresh in tow, had not just left his mark on the expo but had etched a narrative of success that transcends the court. For attendees, the event was more than a showcase of business opportunities; it was a collision of worlds where the thrill of entrepreneurship met the excitement of slam dunks and where the lines between business brilliance and basketball magic blurred in the most unforgettable of ways.

The Evolution of Ace Handyman Services:

A Tale of Growth and Success

ce Handyman Services (AHS) is a name that rings a bell. The successful handyman service trusted with the ACE name allows you to hire a Multi-Skilled Craftsman to assist with any home projects you may need a hand with. They have several hundred franchise locations and have been listed as a top franchise in numerous publications. But you don’t suddenly appear one day and become a successful business, what did AHS do to arrive at where they are now? The story of Ace Handyman Services started with Handyman Matters, established in 1998 by owners Andy and Colette Bell. Andy was previously working in the restaurant industry. Although he loved it, the long hours took a toll on the couple as they were getting ready to start a family. While brainstorming career paths, As Andy explored various career options, he was committed to finding work that would allow him to leave behind a legacy. They did not initially arrive at the decision to join the handyman industry. In fact, they didn’t even know much about the handyman industry at all. The decision came as a result of their own need for aid

with their own house projects as they were preparing for their first child. Per Colette, “We weren’t finding anyone. There were people you could call, but no one would answer and they wouldn’t call back.” At that moment, she described it as if a light bulb had lit up above their heads. This was exactly the kind of business that they needed to start. So naturally, an idea was born – to make a handyman business that was concerned about the customers, a place that would answer calls and connect you to a handyman who you trust and can get the job done. Starting in 1998, they enjoyed

DECEMBER 2023 | WWW.FRANCHISEJOURNAL.COM

success building a business that’s focused on consumer satisfaction. Handyman Matters opened several locations in Colorado, and even expanded their services into California. Because each location ended up being so successful, they decided to look into franchising Handyman Matters in 2001. Colette has gone on record stating that it is through working with their franchisees that their business has continued to move forward. In 2018, Ace Hardware contacted Handyman Matters. Ace wanted to expand into services as their next big step, as consumers’ behavior has been moving from “do it yourself” into “do it for me.” Of course, with the powerful ACE name behind them, Handyman Matters would be able to further evolve and grow as a business. And so, Ace Handyman Services was born. Before the Ace acquisition, there were 119 locations. Today that number has increased exponentially to 379. But what exactly caused AHS to grow rapidly? It all has to do with their franchise model. To start, AHS has a very strong support service for franchisees. In addition to resources and brand power, they also offer

the aid of a dedicated business coach that one can turn to for advice and counseling if such needs come up. Along with this, owning a franchise comes with its own perks as well. AHS consolidates all information that comes in from each of their branches, and it is through this that they are able to discern what works and what doesn’t. Once they have found things that they think help business run smoother from one franchisee, they pass that information along to other franchisees. The same applies when they discover things that are slowing a business down. It’s all about teamwork and understanding the importance of taking action on positive and negative feedback.

But these are all overhead things, how exactly does it work for individual franchisees? AHS treats their franchisees as full-time employers of their branch. This means that they will spend most of their time ensuring the business running smoothly: keeping a proper eye on payroll to make sure employees are earning what they’re supposed to be earning, recruiting and providing proper training for the employees that have been recruited, and of course

networking and marketing so that the branch grows further and has a steady flow of clientele. To be an AHS franchisee, it’s essential for a potential franchisee to have a “servant leader” mindset, meaning to operate in service to your employees, hired craftsmen, and community. And of course, a can-do attitude where you’re willing to do better and learn will always serve you well. If Ace Handyman Services seems like the kind brand you would want to be a part of, do take a look at their site AceHandymanFranchising.com – where you can learn more, contact the AHS team, and see if your territory is available.

HALLMARK HOMECARE

LIVE HYDRATION SPA

President & Founder franchisefastlane.com/ ownahallmarkhomecare

allmark Homecare is a referral agency for caregiver recruitment and client matchmaking. Unlike a traditional homecare agency, the family is the employer of the Caregiver(s) and has complete control of the relationship allowing them to make all the decisions related to their care. Hallmark Homecare is an industry disruptor as it’s solving challenges that the overregulated and highcost provider model of traditional senior care faces. Clients save money, receive better care, and have more control. Caregivers earn higher wages and enjoy a preferred work arrangement. Franchisees enjoy handsome profits and make a difference in the lives of others. The Hallmark Homecare business model is more profitable than a traditional homecare agency with less overhead and fewer employees. The model is largely unregulated, which means the franchisee is not spending as much time with compliance and licensing fees and protracted start-up timeframes. With the home-based model and two-phase launch programs, franchisees can be operating their business and generating revenue within days.

nago Cleaning Systems offers a Master Franchise opportunity to dynamic sales and marketing professionals, serving as the CEO of their designated territory. As a Master Franchise owner, your role primarily revolves around franchise sales and client acquisition. You won't be performing the cleaning tasks; instead, you'll recruit and mentor entrepreneurs who want to venture into commercial cleaning. Those who you sell a franchise to are not buying a territory of their own, they are purchasing a dollar value of monthly client billing from you. In return, you receive ongoing royalties for the duration of the contract. The commercial cleaning industry, with its annual revenue exceeding $100 billion and consistent year-over-year growth, presents a lucrative opportunity. The best part? Anago's Master Franchisees have the potential to achieve annual revenues in the millions, making this a remarkable business endeavor.

This franchise is offered only by our delivery of a franchise disclosure document to you in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission’s rule on franchising and various state franchise sales laws. *Chart is based on each company’s Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) for all franchise centers open in 2021, except for Kumon which is for centers open at least three years. Kumon reports in its 2021 FDD that its average franchised center open at least 36 months had 169 subject-students. We estimate a subject-student’s monthly fee from our web search of the phrase ‘How much does a parent pay Kumon’. We used the average of the high estimates, $145 per month per single subject. We estimated the registration fee of $50 and materials fee of $30 from this we search; and we estimate that half of a center’s enrollees pay these fees.

egato Living Franchise offers long term care services to individuals living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias in true residential homes. As the disease progresses, the larger memory care facilities are often still too big. By providing this care in the smaller setting, residents often experience less anxiety knowing there is help close by. Providing this type of setting in your community will not only allow you to make an impact on seniors but will also allow you to build your real estate portfolio. The true residential model will allow residents to be properly cared for due to proper staffing levels, and will allow them to age in a place where they are comfortable and surrounded by individuals who become like family. There are no long halls to navigate and get lost in and caregivers who work in these settings appreciate being able to provide the right care at the right time.

BAR-B-CLEAN

BEST CHOICE ROOFING

Owner/Founder franchisefastlane.com/ownabar-b-clean

ar-B-Clean offers barbecue cleaning, service, parts and repairs, as well as new grill sales. Our mission is to promote a healthy, familyoriented lifestyle to our clients while pioneering and leading the untapped barbecue cleaning industry. Bar-B-Clean started in 2012 out of necessity. Our founder needed his grill cleaned and there was only one competitor in the market. Rather than calling the competitor, he capitalized on an opportunity and started his own grill cleaning business. After finding success, he franchised the business in 2014 and hasn’t looked back since. Bar-B-Clean is a mobile home service business where we provide a service that customers want done, but don't want to do themselves - similar to window cleaning or carpet cleaning. Anybody with a backyard barbecue is a prospective customer. If grills haven’t been professionally cleaned within six months, cancer-causing carcinogens left behind by old food & rat droppings cause real health risks. HOA’s, apartment complexes, office buildings, hotels and Airbnb's also offer great B2B opportunities for our franchisees.

BLACK OPTIX TINT

THE BROTHERS THAT JUST DO GUTTERS

CEO franchisefastlane.com/ ownablackoptixtint

lack Optix Tint is a market leader in the $10B window tint industry, bringing professionalism and reliability to an extremely fragmented space. We provide valuable, high-quality window tinting and auto restyling services including residential and commercial window films. Our focus is on efficiency, speed and customer service – bringing honesty and friendly service to every interaction and project. The Black Optix Tint franchise model is operationally simple, flexible and runs efficiently with very few employees who can complete over 20 cars/projects on a daily basis! Franchisees can start with only window tinting services and then grow into additional auto restyling services over time such as vinyl wraps, audio upgrades, remote starts and more! With so many potential revenue streams across multiple service offerings along with a high demand for our services, our company has grown and thrived through every rise and fall of the economy. We've proven the model can be successful in any market, regardless of demographics and socioeconomic status. Our operational systems keep the workload reasonable for an owner/ operator, while also appealing to executive or manager-run ownership.

Owner/Chief Solutionist

franchisefastlane.com/ ownabrothersgutters

he Brothers That Just Do Gutters franchised their business model in 2015 after running a successful gutter company since 1999. Ken and Ryan Parsons recognized a gaping hole in the gutter industry which their model filled perfectly. The giant gap exists between Owner/Operators and Gutter Guard distribution models. The owner/operators focus on cheap and fast, and the gutter guard distributors focus on overpricing and high-pressure sales. The Brothers That Just Do Gutters mantra is “Reinventing Contractor Service.” They provide 5-Star service in a 1-Star industry. Ryan and Ken spent eight years perfecting their business prior to franchising the opportunity. This has really set up their franchisees for fast growth and tremendous support from day one. The brothers have assembled a great team to support their franchisees from installation, sales, marketing to individual coaching. A major attraction and leg up from the competition is the logo and branding. Our branding is unforgettable, sells itself and puts a smile on people’s faces.
