Image One’s Recession-Resistant Franchise Model

April 22, 2021

Every business owner’s goal is longevity and a quick return on their initial investment, which is sometimes easier said than done in today’s economic climate. Luckily, franchising has made everything about opening and growing a company easier without having the experience of a seasoned business owner. Franchise Business Review recently identified 100 of the top recession-resistant franchise concepts, and Image One cracked the list.

Here are just a few reasons why we were recognized as a recession-resistant franchise and how our team will help you get into business for yourself.

Mobile Business, Low Overhead

Are you financially prepared to open a business on your own?

At Image One, we make sure that all of our franchisees understand their financial obligations right away by providing our candidates with a clear investment outline ahead of time.

We want to do everything we can to keep our franchise costs low, which is made possible thanks to our mobile style of service. Our franchisees don’t have to worry about the ongoing upkeep of a brick-and-mortar location – Image One is a vehicle-based business concept. Our owners are asked to fulfill an initial investment of $42,000-$72,000, which can depend entirely on their goals and the number of territories they plan to open. Having said that, since we have cut those costs to open a physical location, Image One franchisees allocate their capital to different areas of their business that are pertinent to their overall success.

Keeping a Deep Clean

Comparatively speaking, there has never been such an emphasis placed on the importance of cleaning as there is today, and we believe that this is only the beginning. Commercial institutions, schools, and restaurants must follow mandated state guidelines and cleaning protocols, but they don’t always have the time or resources to clean effectively. We have become increasingly aware of the importance of personal health and hygiene, so the demand for our commercial cleaning services has only just begun. Recently, it’s one of the fundamental reasons we stand out as a recession-resistant franchise.

According to the job search engine ZipRecruiter, thanks to the increasing need for commercial cleaning help, ads for cleaners have increased by over 75% year over year. Image One franchisees offer clients the convenience of accomplishing those cleaning tasks with a professional approach as an essential service-based business.

Recurring Revenue

Image One franchise owners don’t have to worry about fluctuations in foot traffic on a daily basis; our clients are business owners that sign up for services on a contractual basis. We perform a complete site audit and scope out our work according to their unique cleaning budget. Image One owners can build that base of new business and then scale their investment depending on the results they’re seeing. By conducting business this way, our franchisees better understand what their revenue will look like months down the road.
