Grasons Encourages Unique Holiday Gift Hunting at Local Estate Sales

2023-11-27T17:58:37-05:00November 27th, 2023|Tags: , , |

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — As the holiday season approaches, the quest for extraordinary gifts begins. Grasons, renowned nationwide for its estate sale expertise, invites holiday shoppers to dive into the diverse offerings of local estate sales.

Dave Dembinski, Grasons Vice President of Operations, speaks on the distinct nature of these sales. “An estate sale is a glimpse into someone’s journey, rich with items that carry history, elegance, and a unique tale. Such gifts are bound to make a lasting impression during the festive season.”

“This holiday season, rather than opting for the usual gifts, I encourage everyone to explore the world of estate sales. It’s a chance to gift our loved ones with truly unique and memorable treasures,” added Dembinski.

Estate sales, for those new to the concept, are organized events to sell the possessions of an individual, often due to downsizing, relocating, or following a passing. These sales are a haven for antiques, collectibles, and distinctive finds.

Tips for Unearthing Top Estate Sales:

Classified Ads: Typically published on Thursdays, local newspapers’ classified sections are great sources for weekend estate sale announcements.

Look Online: Websites like EstateSales.net often list upcoming sales.

Street Signs: Keep your eyes peeled for signs in your neighborhood or on local roads pointing to estate sales.

Community Bulletin Boards: These can be goldmines for flyers announcing local events, including estate sales.

Email Updates: By providing your email address to companies like Grasons, you can stay updated with notifications about upcoming sales.

For seasoned estate sale shoppers considering hosting their own sale, Grasons offers comprehensive services, from inventory management to pricing and cleanup. Visit their website for further insights on estate sales and to locate a nearby Grasons franchise.

Window Hero West Knoxville franchisee wins Rookie of the Year

2023-11-27T17:52:38-05:00November 27th, 2023|Tags: , , , , , |

Local owner Ben Brown was feted at HomeFront Brands’ inaugural franchisee convention

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Window Hero West Knoxville owner Ben Brown was awarded the Rookie of the Year for his Window Hero location at the franchise’s parent company’s first franchisee convention earlier this month.

HomeFront Brands, the property service franchise platform with six emerging concepts in its portfolio, hosted its inaugural convention, entitled “Homecoming,” at the company’s headquarters outside of Charlotte, North Carolina earlier this month. The conference brought together franchisees, corporate employees and vendor partners to celebrate HomeFront Brands’ impressive growth since its inception in late 2022.

Brown’s commitment to his community helped him earn his Rookie of the Year Award. In the eight months his location has been open, he has cleaned the exteriors of five schools in his service area. His Window Hero location provided this service for free with the goal of revitalizing the appearance of these schools’ campuses.

“Ben’s dedication to his community and his support for local schools is a shining example of what can be achieved through hard work and determination,” said HomeFront Brands Chairman and CEO Jeff Dudan. “Our Homecoming Convention served as an example of HomeFront Brands’ remarkable growth since our founding in 2022. We owe some of our tremendous success to Ben Brown’s exceptional character and commitment to our core values.”

The Rookie of the Year Award recognizes a newcomer who displays remarkable promise, adaptability and a tireless work ethic despite being in the early stages of their ownership journey. HomeFront Brands bestowed Rookie of the Year awards to a franchise owner of each of its four core brands: Window Hero, The Designery, Top Rail Fence and Temporary Wall Systems.

“I’ve always sought opportunities to give back to my community,” Brown said. “When I opened my Window Hero location, I knew I wanted to establish my company as a source in providing a reliable service to my clients while also helping those in need. It’s an honor to receive this award and I hope to continue to deliver exceptional performance as a HomeFront Brands franchise member.”

Brown’s service-oriented approach has long been a part of his personality. He and his wife, Brittany, have always been active in their community and are the engaged parents of Cooper, Hutch and Caroline. He also coaches several of his sons’ sports teams and is active in the family’s church.

Rolling Suds Aligns with Franchising Veteran David Barr in Strategic Investment as Development Surges

2023-11-23T16:28:27-05:00November 23rd, 2023|Tags: , , , |

Leading Residential + Commercial Power Washing Franchise Secures Pivotal Backing with Sights Set High on 2024 Growth Goals

PHILADELPHIA — Rolling Suds, a leader in residential and commercial power washing for 30-plus years, announces its alignment with and strategic backing from franchising veteran, David Barr. After an impressive kickoff year of its franchise opportunity, this announcement comes at a prime time as Rolling Suds has awarded agreements for 59 territories across 16 states year-to-date. With prospective franchisees flocking toward the opportunity, the emerging franchise is riding the wave of success.

David Barr has been highly involved in the franchising industry for more than 35 years in several capacities, from CEO to franchisee to board member and more. Barr has played an integral role in Rolling Suds from the beginning, serving as a personal mentor to CEO Aaron Harper, demonstrating his belief in the brand’s mission. After seeing the emerging franchise’s impressive growth in less than a year since its launch, Barr was inspired to strengthen his position with Rolling Suds.

“It is a true honor to have the support of incredible visionary David Barr as we redefine successful, responsible franchising,” shared Harper. “His unique perspective, gained from experience with brands such as Domino’s Pizza, College HUNKS Hauling Junk and Moving, and Franworth, will continue to be invaluable. David’s track record speaks for itself, having helped brands grow from two units to 500, and I look forward to seeing where this astute partnership takes us.”

As Q4 closes out and the brand prepares for 2024, Barr’s strategic investment will put Rolling Suds in a favorable position to reach its growth goal of becoming a 300+ unit system. While having secured dozens of agreements this year, Rolling Suds has also welcomed 11 new corporate members in anticipation of its exponential growth. With sights set on a bright future, the brand leans into the robust foundation its built and proven business model.

“Rolling Suds represents a rare opportunity in franchising – one that is both ethical and scalable,” shared Barr. “I’ve rarely seen such rapid growth and innovation in such a short amount of time. My strategic investment signifies my utmost confidence in Aaron and the team, and I am excited to contribute to the company’s bright future.”

The residential and commercial power washing franchise brand is looking to align with single and multi-unit operators looking to stake their claim in the more than $577B home improvement industry. As the industry continues its boom, Rolling Suds has 59 territories in various stages of development across the U.S., with vast whitespace available.

Rolling Suds is a proven business backed by more than 30-years of industry experience and knowledge. One of its key differentiators is the quality and process of the service itself, and ability to complete jobs two to three times more quickly. Rolling Suds has a proprietary cleaning process which utilizes high-quality materials and a specific dilution of soaps within their wash method. With state-of-the-art equipment and highly trained professionals, Rolling Suds is a sustainable business with the ability to invest back into itself.

The Rolling Suds brand and franchise is built on three core elements – relationships, reputation and reliability – and each are applicable to both consumers and franchisees. Having unparalleled experience in such an unregulated industry, Rolling Suds franchisees will be able to differentiate themselves from competitors through a recession-resistant business model. The business support that franchisees receive is immense, including a nine-week interactive power launch training program, one week in person training, six months of lead generation, digital and marketing needs handled, technician training, among many other essential business aspects are provided. It’s truly a complete business in a box.

Clean Eatz Raises $45,000 for Inaugural Camp Pocono Trails Fundraiser

Top Health Food Franchise Announces New Fundraiser to Fight Childhood Obesity

WILMINGTON, N.C. — Clean Eatz, America’s leading health food restaurant and online meal plan franchise, recently announced a new fundraiser in conjunction with the brand’s latest partnership with Camp Pocono Trails, the country’s premier health and wellness camp. The fundraiser, aimed at financing the cost for kids to attend the camp, amassed an incredible $45,000, which will be enough to give 10 kids the Camp Pocono Trails experience.

Camp Pocono Trails has welcomed tens of thousands of kids from across the country since opening in 1999. While the directive of the camp has altered over the years, its intent has always been on the personal development of campers. It is one of the few remaining health-oriented summer camps in the United States, teaching kids’ lifelong lessons and instilling habits for weight management, self-esteem, nutrition, and technology usage.

The lion’s share of the funds were raised through an auction event held during Clean Eatz 2023 National Franchise Convention. Franchisees stepped up and purchased items to help drive the CE Foundation’s greater push against childhood obesity. Cafes also raised money by donating proceeds from smoothie sales during September, which is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month.

“We’ve been exploring various ways to introduce Clean Eatz and our community culture to younger generations for years now, since they don’t typically have health and wellness brands that are specifically geared towards them,” said Evonne Varady, Co-founder of Clean Eatz. “Our work with Camp Pocono Trails will be instrumental in that effort; providing us a springboard to introduce the franchise, it’s meals, and proven impact on personal health to a new audience.”

With 94 franchise locations operational in communities across the country, and an additional 87 currently under development, Clean Eatz is becoming a household name for millions. This is as access and affordability for nutritious, health-conscious meal options worsen from coast to coast; further motivating the franchise to make its menu and services as available to all people and age groups as humanly possible.

“It’s not often we enter into any kind of an arrangement with an outside party; but the directive and guiding principles of Clean Eatz are as closely aligned to our own goals as can possibly be,” said Tony Sparber, Owner of Camp Pocono Trails. “This partnership will do more than offer our campers nutritious meals while they’re here, it’ll give them unique insight on a brand that can aid them in their continuing health journey even once they’ve returned home.”

The Clean Eatz Foundation raised more than $87k, with $45k of that earmarked to send 10 kids to Camp Pocono Trails this summer and the remainder of the funds being put toward a scholarship program for individuals entering the health and wellness academic fields.
