Franchisee testimonial from Tony Wightman (Essex)

“My name is Tony Wightman. I am in my mid forties. I have been, and still am working at present in the rail construction industry.

I had been looking to move into business for myself for the last 8 years or so, nearly; on so many occasions did I take the plunge. I had looked at other, different franchises in the past, but always seemed to go back to cleaning. Eventually I made a call to a couple of advertisers, but was left unimpressed after the calls. I rang Peter Munro, and I was left feeling he cared about the business and that really swung it for me.

I have been impressed with the level of knowledge, and the training that has been given to me since I signed my franchise agreement. The ongoing support I have received has been invaluable, as I try to build my business. From the start I wasn’t told any great stories that “this will make you millions” instead; I got the story about how much hard work lies ahead, and it will not be a sprint but a marathon.

My aspirations are to grow a business from the ground with hard work, but due to the franchise, without all the pitfalls of starting from scratch by myself. I would like to make a good honest living from the business, to eventually enable me to leave my current job, and provide for me and my family in a comfortable manner. "

Franchisee testimonial from Alex Markov (London)

"This is probably the best franchise if you want to start a business in cleaning.

Peter Munro, the founder of the business, is very experienced and knows and understands all the difficulties that a franchisee can have. He is an honest man, being supportive and very knowledgeable at the same time.

When you start working, you will never regret it later because he will never let you down and he is always ready to help you with a piece of advice, an email, a phone call or even a visit.

He is always ready to listen and understand your point of view and constantly thinks about improving the system.

If you want to find somebody to guide and teach you how to start a business, to learn and organise every aspect of it, to get a sound, regular income even during a recession, you will not find a better franchise than this."

Franchisee testimonial from Peter Reid (Edinburgh)

"I had been looking for a franchise which didn't require a great deal of money to start up, and didn't need premises or
expensive equipment for its operation. Also, I had wanted a business that involved working with people. This business fulfilled both those criteria.

The Management Manual and documentation that come with it for the various leaflets,forms and spreadsheets are
well presented and easy to understand.

Eventually, I would like to build a business of 100-150 clients."

Franchisee testimonial from Dermot Hallahan (Southeast)
"Following recovery from a life threatening illness, I decided to change my career direction, give up commuting and work from home by either starting a business on my own or obtaining a franchise.

My criteria for a franchise were: Must not require a heavy upfront financial investment, must be able to operate from home, must not require investment in plant or machinery or a special vehicle, would get all the support needed to succeed from the franchise owners and not just promises of millions.

It also had to have the potential to earn me an income to be able to sustain my lifestyle and provide me with an income for my retirement.

I spent quite some time looking and eventually decided that this business could meet all of the above.

They have not let me down and while it was hard work initially, I have now got a substantial client base, which is growing steadily and it is an added bonus that costs do not increase exponentially as the business grows.

I received invaluable advice and support from the business and the documentation and software is self explanatory.

I would heartily recommend this company for any potential franchisee.”

Property information

Location:

Work from home (for low overheads and convenience.) Numerous areas are available nationwide.

Business Operation

Expansion potential:

As a domestic cleaning franchise, based on having 100 regular clients with 2.2 hours a week each at £2.95/hour, your turnover would be £649/week, £2,812/month or £33,748/year.

For 200 clients, it would be £1,298/week, £5,624/month or £67,496/year

Your net profit, after all expenses, should be at least 60%, so:

100 clients would produce around £20,000 profit a year.
200 clients would produce around £40,000 profit a year.
300 clients would produce around £60,000 profit a year.

Some franchisees operating a very similar domestic cleaning agency have reached 800 clients (after some years), so there are opportunities to build quite a sizeable business if you want to. Alternatively, you may wish to keep it smaller, but this is your individual choice.

If you would like to run a leaflet delivery firm alongside your cleaning firm, an ADDITIONAL £30,000 A YEAR can be made with very little extra work, as you would have staff delivering your own cleaning leaflets anyway, but it is entirely your preference if you are interested in this or not.

Competition / Market:

The standard of competition is generally low. Many of your competitors are not very competent which is a distinct advantage for you! If you were in a fashionable industry, such as investment banking, the amount and quality of competition would be markedly higher. It offers job security because you will have a large number of clients when established, in that you are not dangerously exposed to a handful of big clients cancelling or to one employer making you redundant! A commercial cleaning franchise can place you in a high risk situation, meaning that you would have several crucially important large clients. Whilst we undertake small commercial jobs, the majority of your profit will arise from house cleaning. It is better to spread your risk across a multitude of clients without being overly dependent on any single one. Also,you do not need any sales skills, as clients ring you when they are already interested. With our system, training, guidance and support you will possess a distinct advantage over rival firms.

Reasons for selling:

New franchise territories are available. The figures for turnover and profit listed above reflect what an established franchise could reasonably expect to attain when our system is adhered to.
