For a long time, it seemed like quick service restaurants (QSR) and fast food locations were the most popular way to get involved in the franchise community. That may have been the case a few years back, but more recently the top franchise opportunities are brands outside of the foodservice industry. Now, investors are digging into cornerstone services that are always necessary, no matter what changes in the economic climate occur. Our janitorial business opportunities and services are essential, now more than ever, so let’s look at a few of the reasons why investors are showing interest in our industry.
Newfound Demand
It’s hard to think of another time in our country when there has been such an emphasis on the dangers of germs, bacteria, and viruses. Business and facility owners are more concerned about their disinfecting protocol, meeting EPA/CDC guidelines, and keeping their staff and visitors safe from dangers they can’t see. It’s a time unlike any we’ve experienced in our nation’s history, which has led to an unprecedented demand for commercial cleaning services. Companies like Image One provide preventative disinfecting spraying technology that can cover all surfaces and eliminate harmful pathogens that stand in a business’ way. The cleaning for health conversation has indeed sparked more interest, due to the sweeping effects of COVID-19; however, we foresee that services like our electrostatic sprays will be popular even after we’ve passed the impact of the pandemic.
The B2B and Mobile Business Model
A significant advantage of our janitorial business opportunities is the likelihood of repeat business. Our franchisees don’t have to worry about the ebb and flow of a B2C operation. Our clients are signed on a contractual basis, which means a consistent flow of revenue, so you don’t have to worry as much about slow days. And unlike a fast food or QSR location, you won’t have to invest money into a storefront. Our business is purely mobile, which saves you the stress of allocating money to rent, utilities, and so on. That money you’ve saved can be dedicated to other aspects of your business to help you get ahead of the competition.
Wide Range of Clientele
Rather than service one type of customer, Image One provides commercial cleaning services across a multitude of industries. Our clients include small businesses and large facilities in education, healthcare, automotive, hospitality, manufacturing, and plenty more! That means you don’t have to live in a bustling city to qualify for an Image One business. Our franchisees are encouraged to reach out to potential clients and let them know about the differences daily cleaning can make. Companies want to do everything to keep their doors open by providing employees and patrons with a safer environment. Your team will make a detailed walkthrough of your client’s property and put together a service package tailored to their specific needs.
