Hey Empire Builders,

Welcome to this week’s Franchise Empire Newsletter, where we share specific franchise opportunities that we think are interesting, and examples of everyday folks building their empires.

For those of you who are struggling to find the right franchise, or maybe you’ve worked with a broker or consultant and haven’t had success…

We offer a two week trial in our proprietary Zero to Profitable Franchise™ system to help you get access to the most proven franchises and reduce your risk, so that you can buy a money making franchise with confidence and PROTECT YOUR ASSETS. 

We help you with 3 things:

1. Finding a quality franchise that aligns with your skills, budget and is available in your area.
2. Due diligence to reduce your risk and protect your assets.
3. Getting launched so you can get off to a fast start.

What’s the catch? 

We don’t work with everyone, and you need to qualify.

The good news?

You can schedule a free consultation with our team to see if you qualify, and if we are the right fit to work with each other.

This week, our featured resale comes from Window Genie. A Neighborly brand, Window Genie is a leader in the window cleaning and power washing industry. The franchise was started in 1998, and now has 113 units throughout the country. Franchise owners provide window cleaning, pressure washing, window tinting, gutter cleaning, and holiday lighting services to residential and commercial customers

• Asking price of $300,000

• LY Revenue of $482,076

• Opened since August 2017

• Vehicles, Staff, Equipment, and Inventory included in sale

• San Antonio is a strong market for window cleaning and pressure washing due to it’s large population, growing economy, and climate conditions that contribute to the need of regular exterior cleaning of homes and businesses with dust storms, high humidity, and pollen creating demand for professional window cleaning services.

• According to the FDD, the average job system-wide in 2023 was $512, with an average number of jobs completed per day of 4.7. Based on some rough math, this location appears to be UNDER performing the average for the entire system, with an opportunity for growth.

Geoff was a former marketing executive located in the fast-growing area of Nashville. He wanted something that was ideally B2B and had a recurring revenue element. Our team went hard at work to narrow down on franchises that aligned with Geoff’s criteria.

After going through validation with three franchises that fit this criteria, he chose a landscaping franchise due to the system and support the franchisor provides and the opportunity to build recurring commercial customer accounts.

• Originally started in 2009 as a non franchise business.

• They started franchising in 2023

Episode #90: Ex Pentagon Employee Explains The Psychology of Billboard Marketing

In business, there’s a phrase that goes something like this…

The best marketer wins.

It’s typically not the best product that wins, or the smartest business owner.

The businesses that make the most money become great at sales and marketing.

Which is why this episode is so important, and it’s the first of its kind.

This podcast was led by our very own Director of Marketing, Josh, who sits down with RJ Schultz, who is the COO of blip, and is a leader in digital billboard advertising.

This episode is highly relevant to anyone who aspires to own a business, or currently owns a business.

Remember, the best marketer wins.
