ADVANCED INSIGHTS FOR SEASONED BUSINESS OWNERS

 

BENEFITS OF FRANCHISING
VS. YOUR OWN STARTUP

Owning a franchise and starting your own business both have their advantages and considerations. Below are some benefits of owning a TruBlue franchise compared to starting up your own business:

  • Proven Model
    vs.
    Trial and Error
  • Ongoing Support
    vs.
    On Your Own
  • Profitable Proof
    vs.
    Uncertain Demand

Proven Model vs. Trial and Error

A proven business model means you don't have to spend as much time experimenting and figuring out what works. TruBlue already has a proven business model, which is constantly being refined, allowing you to benefit from our expertise and experience.

In contrast, starting your own business involves developing a business model from scratch, which introduces a higher level of uncertainty and a potentially steeper learning curve compared to joining an established franchise. Without the advantage of a proven business model, entrepreneurs may struggle with the challenges of identifying effective strategies for operations, marketing, customer service, and financial management, making it harder to mitigate risks and achieve sustainable success.

 

Ongoing Support vs. On Your Own

The ongoing support provided by TruBlue offers several advantages over starting a business without any support. TruBlue's support system is available throughout your journey as a franchisee, providing ongoing assistance whenever you need it. Whether you have questions about staffing, need marketing guidance, or require support in other areas of your business, TruBlue's experienced team is there to lend a helping hand. The support provided by TruBlue allows you to make informed decisions and implement effective strategies right from the start, significantly increasing your chances of success in the home services industry.

Without a franchisor like TruBlue, you are left to navigate the difficulties of business operations on your own. This can lead to costly mistakes, especially in areas such as staffing, marketing, and overall business management. By joining forces with TruBlue, you can mitigate these downsides and position yourself for a more secure and successful venture in the home services industry.

Profitable Proof vs. Uncertain Demand

When considering joining TruBlue, prospective franchisees can benefit from a proven business model with documented financial performance. TruBlue's track record provides tangible evidence of its revenue potential and allows entrepreneurs to make more informed decisions about their expected returns.

On the other hand, entrepreneurs embarking on a new business venture often face the challenge of validating their business concept and determining if there is a market willing to pay for their products or services. This uncertainty can make it difficult to accurately forecast revenue and understand the financial viability of the business.

Do I need to know anything about being a handyman or the handyman service? You do NOT need direct experience in the handyman service industry! We are NOT looking for handymen or technicians. Instead, we are looking for people who have a burning desire to become a business owner and builder of teams, not a technical doer. People who want to seize freedom, flexibility, financial success, serving others, making a real difference, and being in charge of their own path and destiny. Bring the right heart, passion and drive, and we will train and coach you every step of the way. We recommend that you simply have solid business or management experience and have abilities in either project management/operations or sales/marketing…and eventually hire someone with talents complementary to yours. You will hire your technical staff...maids, handymen, generalists, supervisors in time, etc. There are plenty of good technicians out there looking for a professional brand, effective operating and marketing systems to keep them busy year-round, and a good leader with a good heart…YOU. You should be confident in your ability to manage people, possess an entrepreneurial spirit, a strong commitment to customer service excellence, and a drive to follow our proven systems as you bring the TruBlue business model to your community.
Why buy a franchise versus starting my own company?

There are many advantages to owning a franchise. The most obvious is being associated with an established and trusted brand. You’re also purchasing a proven system that guides you through the entire process of starting your business, coaches you as your business grows and works with you to maximize its true potential. From operations to accounting to marketing and human resources, the foundation has already been set. Add in training, coaching, support, and experience and a franchise is easier to grow and ready to go! Without a franchise, a new business owner must create everything on their own, through trial and error, losing valuable time that could be spent growing the business.

Why is TruBlue such a unique & huge opportunity? With one franchise, you have the opportunity to serve two of the fastest-growing markets in the country— seniors and busy adults who need home services! The senior population is growing exponentially. More than 90% of these seniors are choosing to age-in-place, which can only begin in a safe and accessible home. While thousands of companies care for seniors and focus on the individual, no one is caring for their home. TruBlue provides a helping hand inside and outside the home to ensure it’s safe, maintained, and offers worry-free living to seniors and their busy families. Many of these same services are perfect for busy adults who work long hours, travel or are focused on raising a family. Busy adults who don’t have the time or energy also need help maintaining their homes. Two distinct markets with huge potential.
Who are TruBlue’s core customers?

TruBlue is targeting two unique markets: Seniors and Busy Adults, looking for professionals they can trust and provide peace of mind when it relates to home repairs and maintenance. 

The senior market is vulnerable and seeking a trustworthy, professional relationship that provides quality services for their home – services they can’t, shouldn’t and don’t want to perform anymore.

Busy adults need a trustworthy, professional relationship to provide services they don’t have the time, skill or desire to perform.

Both markets give TruBlue franchisees the opportunity to bring trustworthy, quality and dependable services to the very people who need them while having little overhead and the potential for high-profit margins.

Who will be my referral sources? Your number one referral source will be your recurring and highly satisfied customers…seniors and busy families. They will gladly tell their family members, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and social connections…both in person and on social media. And keep in mind every homeowner or condo owner you meet and talk to every day is a potential client or referral source. Your customers are everywhere! Also, Realtors have a vested interest in referring their clients to TruBlue, a convenient, reliable, one-stop shop to help their clients get their homes in tip-top shape quickly so the property sells fast and for a premium price. Also, Senior Care Agencies, who take care “of the person”, have a vested interest in referring their clients to you so you can take care “of their property” and allow their clients to “age in place” in a safe and well-maintained home for many additional years.
How much does a TruBlue franchise cost? TruBlue is a low-cost investment opportunity with potential for high returns, with the total investment estimate to begin operations ranging from $65,050 – $91,400. TruBlue is a home-based business with low overhead and no buildout costs or brick and mortar expenses, making TruBlue far more affordable than other franchise concepts in the senior services or home services industries. The franchise fee for your first territory is $44,900…and if necessary, we have third-party financing partners that can help you evaluate financing options.
What experiences do I need? You do NOT need direct experience in the senior care or home services industries! We are NOT looking for handymen or technicians. Instead, we are looking for people who have a burning desire to become a business owner and builder of teams, not a technical doer. People who want to seize freedom, flexibility, financial success, serving others, making a real difference, and being in charge of their own path and destiny. Bring the right heart, passion and drive, and we will train and coach you every step of the way. We recommend that you simply have solid business or management experience and abilities in either project management/operations or sales/marketing…and eventually hire someone with complementary talents. You will hire your technical staff, handymen, generalists, supervisors in time, etc. Plenty of good technicians are out there looking for a professional brand, effective operating and marketing systems to keep them busy year-round, and a good leader with a good heart…YOU. You should be confident in your ability to manage people, possess an entrepreneurial spirit, a strong commitment to customer service excellence, and a drive to follow our proven systems as you bring the TruBlue business model to your community.
How many employees do I need? TruBlue only requires a small staff to get started. We will help you scale your business in a smart fashion, so that you will be able to hire more employees and take on more jobs as you grow your business, customers and cash-flow.
