For those who qualify, JAN-PRO offers a business opportunity that may be the most attractive and profitable in the franchising industry today in a solid business that is experiencing explosive growth and that offers unlimited income potential.
We look for the following three key criteria in assessing potential Master Franchise Owners:
- A successful track record of business and/or sales management experience
- Liquid assets or access to initial start-up funding of $250,000+
- Preparedness to reside in or relocate to a selected metropolitan market with a population of 400,000+
When you decide to invest in a JAN-PRO Master Franchise you will become part of a carefully proven support system that partners with you and supports you every step of the way. Here’s how it works:
- Site selection — JAN-PRO will help you identify regions and locations with maximum growth potential.
- Training — JAN-PRO will provide comprehensive sales, recruiting, and operations training.
- Ongoing support — JAN-PRO will continue to work with you in your own region and in regularly scheduled regional meetings.
- Turnkey materials — JAN-PRO provides regularly updated training manuals, videos, standard presentations, and all legal documentation.
The JAN-PRO Master Franchise Owner license is $20,000 per 100,000 in population for your exclusive territory (maximum – depending on population density), which is effective for 15 years and has two renewable options. Financing options are available.
We require that you lease a professional office space (1,500 to 2,000 square feet) with appropriate signage so that Unit Franchisees are comfortable in the stability of your operation.
As mentioned above, you’ll need working capital for one to two years, to give you enough time to get your revenue streams going. Once you become a Master Franchise Owner, you will be provided with two weeks of training (one week in Atlanta and one week in Toronto), which will give you all the knowledge and tools to run your operation. The JAN-PRO Canada team is also always available to answer your questions and give you the benefit of their experience.
Year 1
Your first year will likely not be profitable, as most of your investment will be tied up in financing Unit Franchisees and in setting up your office and hiring a telemarketer and sales rep. You’ll likely want to do a few sales calls to get some cleaning business in the funnel and better understand how to direct your sales staff.
You’ll start selling Unit Franchises (some of which you’ll finance for up to two years) to perform the cleaning work you have sold, and you’ll also be training them in the JAN-PRO cleaning methodology and ensuring their first job goes well.
Year 2
At this point, you should be able to decide if you want to focus on sales or operations (i.e., training and quality control), and adjust your staff accordingly.
By the end of Year 2 you should be starting to see positive cash flows. Obviously everyone’s experience will be different, depending on your territory, staff, and level of effort.
Should you decide to pursue the JAN-PRO Master Franchise Owner opportunity in earnest, we will provide you with a list of other US and Canadian Master Franchise Owners, who can relate their experience on sales volume and costs.
In 24 months you will be well on your way to building an “annuity” that if managed properly, will provide a lucrative income stream for the rest of your life. You never have to be an employee again.
*There is no guarantee of income or sales; all figures should be independently verified through validation with existing Master Franchise Owners.
JAN-PRO is also investing…
JAN-PRO is continually investing in its business, creating processes and tools that support Master Franchise Owners and increase profitability for everyone. Examples of recent initiatives include:
- JAN-PRO.ca website optimized for Google searches
- Online quote tool providing warm leads from potential cleaning clients
