Eliminating Barriers: How Home Service Franchising Lowers Risk For New Business Owners


Discover How Franchising Eliminates Barriers and Lowers Risks for New Business Owners


Ready to leave your corporate job and build something of your own? Franchising offers a proven path, specifically designed to mitigate risks normally associated with starting a new business, turning "What if?" into "What's next?" Discover how established systems, brand recognition and ongoing support significantly lower the barriers to successful business ownership in the home service sector.

How Home Service Franchising Breaks Barriers

When considering the option of opening your own business, it can be overwhelming to find yourself facing multiple decisions, steps to take and expenses to prioritize. If you’re looking for opportunities that help with those things, home service franchising is a viable option. Let’s look a little deeper at how franchising removes barriers to owning your own business.

 

  • Proven business model for easy entry:

    Investing in a mobile, home-based Five Star Franchise brand offers quick entry into a growing service sector. Requiring less equipment, overhead and staff lowers startup costs and allows you to get to work faster. Plus, you have access to a team experienced in launching businesses and helping our partners succeed. We know what works (and what doesn’t) through the experience of living and growing the brands. Having a vetted and honed business model on day one hastens your ability to open your business.

  • Established brands:

    By pursuing franchise ownership, you’re investing in a brand that already has visibility in the marketplace. Not having to start awareness from scratch is a great time and money saver for new business owners. With Five Star’s rising visibility, you’ve found a great, award-winning partner.

  • Marketing systems to grow business: You can trust that we know how to generate leads for your new location, solely because we’ve learned from experience. Our team has perfected the process of marketing to new customers, allowing owners to grow their business quickly. Our marketing assistance includes automated platforms that nurture relationships with potential customers, production of compelling content for blogs and social media and high-powered analytics to show exactly how well your marketing works.
     

  • Beneficial resources from a franchise platform: Having an established franchise support system in place means you have resources at your disposal for any questions or issues you encounter. Five Star takes mentorship very seriously, as well as shared support between owners in numerous business areas, like 24/7 sales support from our ProNexis solution. This tool is tailored for the home service business with answers at the ready any time you need them. Plus, our ongoing training program offers comprehensive courses spanning operations to customer service with continuous support and real-time advice available when you need it.

  • Boost ROI with franchising: Although there is still a monetary investment to buy into one of our brands, many of the expenses of setting up your business are pre-determined. You don’t have to worry about surprises or excesses because you know what you’re getting for your money. And with an established brand behind you, the risk to your investment can be minimized.
