Janitor franchises are cleaning businesses that can be bought for a fraction of the price of other franchise businesses with the guidance and instruction of a franchisor. Because the cost is often affordable and the work is somewhat familiar, many people consider buying and operating a janitor franchise. Operating under several different well-known and some lesser-known brand names, these companies can offer a good opportunity for someone to own his or her own business.
When investing in these types of businesses, entrepreneurs are often buying many products and services that are designed to help launch and maintain the business. For example, many janitor franchises offer complete training, cleaning supplies and equipment, advertising and marketing strategies, and different kinds of business forms. Most of these businesses try to protect their franchisees' territories by offering each franchisee set counties or zip codes that others cannot also try to get customers from.
As investors research various services, they should ask questions about their fees. It's important to know if monthly management or service fees are required. Many janitor franchises charge a set fee for a certain number of cleaning accounts. While this may be a legitimate business practice, investors should inquire further as to the nature of those accounts such as if they are close to the home base. It's also important to know if all are qualified customers. Entrepreneurs need to know if there is flexibility as to when the janitor franchise accounts are serviced. All of these details must be addressed.
When provided with an agreement from the franchisor, investors must be sure to ask a franchise attorney or another trusted business advisor to read it. Even people with lots of business experience find agreements to be long and complex. As with any financial decision, it is crucial that owners know exactly what they are getting into, specifically, their responsibilities and the franchisor's obligations. Also, it's best to be sure that all promises and guarantees that were addressed (either on the telephone or in person) are properly spelled out in the actual janitor franchise agreement.
Finally, the entrepreneur needs to know what will happen if the business fails. Of course, nobody likes to think about failure but, just like other businesses, janitor franchises sometimes do fail and it's best to be prepared for this possibility. Once owners get all of their questions satisfactorily answered and have the support of family members, trusted friends, and business associates, they can proceed with purpose and perseverance. With God, the possibilities are endless. "In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge" (Proverbs 14:26).
