Local Entrepreneurs Now Providing Award-Winning Senior Care Services to Atlantic, Burlington and Camden Counties.

ROSEVILLE, Calif. — Always Best Care Senior Services, one of the leading senior care franchise systems in the United States, announced today that Comfort and Michael Oseme are the new owners of the South Jersey franchise. Always Best Care of Greater South Jersey serves Atlantic, Burlington and Camden Counties and is one of six Always Best Care agencies across New Jersey. The Osemes and their team of caregivers provide senior care services to communities including Absecon, Berlin, Egg Harbor City, Marlton, Medford, Moorestown, Waterford Works and surrounding areas.

“Always Best Care has a strong history in the South Jersey community providing high-quality senior care services,” said Jake Brown, President and CEO of Always Best Care. “Comfort’s nursing experience and deep knowledge of the healthcare space coupled with Michael’s finance background make them ideal franchisees for this business. I feel confident they have the knowledge and commitment to continue growing this business and providing a valuable service to seniors and their families in the area.”

The Osemes have lived in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, for the past five years. Prior to joining Always Best Care, Comfort earned two master’s degrees in nursing from Drexel University and gained invaluable healthcare and customer service experience in both home care and acute care. She was most recently the nursing director for a large Medical Surgical Telemetry unit.

CARROLLTON, Texas — MY SALON Suite, a salon suite franchise that focuses on providing stylists and beauticians a personal space to build their business and the beauty industry’s future, is looking to expand its influence in the Greater St. Louis region by developing nine locations in the metropolitan area.

“There are incredible growth opportunities for MY SALON Suite in the St. Louis market,” said Ken McAllister, the co-founder and CEO of MY SALON Suite. “MY SALON Suite offers its franchisees a semi-passive owner experience, allowing them a way to own a franchise without the need to manage employees and oversee every operation of their retail location. I am excited to see how MY SALON Suite will expand into the market and cannot wait for new franchisees to join our organization.”

MY SALON Suite is a salon suite franchise that focuses on providing stylists and beauticians a personal space to build their business. They decorate their suite, use their own branding, set their hours, prices, and manage their own client lists and business. In addition, the MY SALON Suite franchise owners serve as landlords who recruit and rent space to health and beauty professionals.

“MY SALON Suite is a franchise that encourages growth in both its franchisees and the beauticians who become members,” said St. Louis franchise owner, Brian Repp. “This franchise wants to help its members to grow both personally and financially. It allows each person to be their own boss, and while it can be a challenge to stay self-motivating when no one is telling you what to do, the freedom available to each Salon member is invaluable.”

In June 2021, Suite Management Franchising, LLC, the parent company of MY SALON Suite and Salon Plaza, was acquired by Propelled Brands. Propelled Brands is using its unparalleled resources, support, and training to accelerate growth and expand Suite Management Franchising’s footprint across the country.

The initial investment for a MY SALON Suite franchise is approximately $664,738 – $1,479,827, including a $50,000 franchise fee. Ideal candidates have a net worth of $1 million, of which $200K is liquid. Additionally, MY SALON Suite offers a special incentive for veterans and first responders, including paramedics, emergency medical technicians, police officers, sheriffs, and firefighters, which includes a 50% reduction on the franchise fee – a savings of $25,000.

Hammer & Nails Partners with Non-Profit Organizations to Provide Male Cancer Patients with Free Grooming Services

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-02-08T11:44:35-05:00February 8th, 2022|Tags: Hammer & Nails Grooming Shop for Guys, men's grooming shop, personal care franchise|

Partnerships with ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer and Men Actively Creating Healthy Outcomes Aim to Provide Male Cancer Patients with “King for the Day” Experiences through Hammer & Nails Cares Program.

FOLSOM, Calif. — Hammer & Nails, the luxury destination for exceptional men’s grooming experiences has joined forces with ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer and Men Actively Creating Healthy Outcomes (MACHO) as part of the Hammer & Nails Cares program, which provides male cancer patients with free grooming services nationwide.

The Hammer & Nails Cares program will provide $100,000 of complimentary grooming services in 2022 to those male cancer patients most in need. Helping to fund a portion of the services donated is Hammer & Nails’ point-of-sale provider, Zenoti.

“It’s an honor to partner with these amazing organizations to spread awareness on the importance of self-care during cancer treatment for happiness and health, and to have a small hand in making these men with cancer feel better about themselves,” said Aaron Meyers, CEO of Hammer & Nails. “Because each Hammer & Nails location is specifically designed for the privacy and comfort of our members and guests, male cancer patients who rarely get a spa day can leave their worries at the door and indulge in essential pampering in an environment exuding quality and relaxation.”

Cancer is out of anyone’s control and its demands including treatment, side effects and surgeries can make anyone feel helpless or frustrated. A cancer diagnosis can’t be changed, but patients can make decisions on how they care for themselves and self-care is one way to take steps to address overall physical and mental health. According to the American Cancer Society, caring for your appearance can help you feel better about yourself, and looking your best can help feel more confident and in control.

“We know the emotional battle cancer patients face as well as the physical toll treatments can have on their bodies,” said DeMetrius Kee from ZERO. “Self-care during cancer treatment is an essential and vital part of overall happiness and health, which is why we are thrilled knowing the male cancer patients we support will get the VIP treatment from Hammer & Nails to look and feel their best.”

The Hammer & Nails experience is unlike any other. The atmosphere is low-lit, with soft ambient lighting throughout the shop. Exterior windows are tinted for privacy and the interior is furnished with dark wood and steel, creating a relaxing vibe. Members are greeted by name, escorted to a luxurious oversized leather chair, and handed a menu with complimentary beverages ranging from an ice-cold water to McAllen’s whiskey, all of which is included in the service cost. Every guest has a personal TV, remote and noise-cancelling headphones for entertainment during his visit.

About ZERO

ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer is the leading national nonprofit with the mission to end prostate cancer. ZERO’s vision is Generation ZERO – the first generation of men free from prostate cancer. To see that vision fulfilled, ZERO focuses on prostate cancer education, testing, patient support, research and advocacy.

About Men Actively Creating Healthy Outcomes

Men Actively Creating Healthy Outcomes (MACHO) is a non-profit foundation dedicated to men’s health and cancer awareness with a mission to inspire men to live healthier lives by making proactive healthcare choices. The partnership will be stewarded by Bin McLaurin, who is an internationally recognized Men’s Health advocate and founder of MACHO.

About Hammer & Nails

Hammer & Nails was founded in 2013 with the vision to provide hand and foot care, manicures and pedicures, haircuts and shaves to every type of male. After launching its franchise opportunity in 2015, the first luxury grooming lounge dedicated to delivering a full suite of services to extraordinary individuals has built an unrivaled experience that’s disrupting the men’s grooming industry and revolutionizing the way guys get their groom on. Quickly becoming one of the fastest growing franchise brands in the segment, Hammer & Nails is ready to take advantage of the expanding $21B male grooming industry.

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-02-03T10:36:15-05:00February 3rd, 2022|Tags: drywall repairs, drywall services franchise, home-services franchise, PatchMaster|

CHESTER, N.J. — PatchMaster, a leading franchisor of drywall and plaster repair services, announced today a strategic investment from MPK Equity Partners, a Dallas-based private investment firm. The new funding will support PatchMaster’s nationwide expansion and strengthen its position as the leading provider of wall surface repair and related services to the residential and commercial markets. PatchMaster’s existing shareholder group, led by Michael Abdy, will maintain a meaningful ownership stake in the business, and Mr. Abdy and Paul Ferrara (CEO of PatchMaster) will be joining the board of directors alongside MPK. Additional details of the investment were not made public.

Founded in 2016, PatchMaster has over 110 locations across 26 states. PatchMaster’s low initial investment, non-discretionary service offering, robust profit margins, and lack of brick-and-mortar presence make it a unique and compelling franchise opportunity within the attractive home services space. As one of the only sophisticated players with national scale focused on drywall repair services, PatchMaster is well positioned to capture incremental market share within the large ($64 billion in the U.S.) and highly fragmented (comprised of ~135,000 businesses) drywall and insulation industry.

“We are extremely excited to welcome MPK to the PatchMaster family and look forward to working closely with the MPK team over the coming years as PatchMaster embarks on its next phase of growth,” said Paul Ferrara. “With the added financial and operational resources provided by MPK, we are even better positioned to support the accelerated growth of our franchise system.”

PatchMaster has experienced robust growth since its founding in 2016, and the partnership with MPK comes at an inflection point in PatchMaster’s growth trajectory, with PatchMaster posting record high systemwide sales and new franchise license sales in 2021.

“Paul and the entire PatchMaster team have built a category-leading home services franchise brand with significant momentum,” said Patrick K. McGee, managing partner of MPK. “We are thrilled to bring PatchMaster into our broader portfolio of home services franchise brands, and we look forward to supporting PatchMaster in its next stage of growth.”

Fast-Casual Restaurant and Taproom Concept to Have 100 Locations Open in the Next Five Years.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom – the fast-casual franchise famous for its oak wood-fired pizza creations and self-serve Taproom – is expected to double in size during 2022 and have 100 locations open in the next five years. The brand currently has five locations open and operating throughout Minnesota, Colorado, Nebraska and Iowa. Offering one-of-a-kind franchising opportunities to continue its national expansion, Smokin’ Oak Pizza will open several locations during the first half of 2022 in Texas, Florida, Arkansas, and an additional location in Grand Junction, CO.

Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom started out as a passion project. After a 20-year executive career in retail banking working for some of the biggest names in the industry, Matt Mongoven was ready for a new challenge. He partnered with his life-long friend and experienced restaurateur, Linda Black, to pursue a dream they had shared since they were children; opening a business of their own together. Fast forward to today, CEO of Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom, Mongoven, and Black, now president and COO, have taken the traditional concept of pizza and reinvented it for the modern consumer.

“We aim to immerse all guests who walk in through our doors in an authentic Smokin’ Oak Pizza experience,” said Mongoven. “We’ve set ourselves apart in this industry because our pizzas and other menu items are baked using 100% aged oak wood-fired cooking, which produces a smoky flavor that most other pizza concepts just can’t copy. It’s amazing to see how much our business has grown thus far and we are excited to continue this momentum into 2022 and beyond.”

Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom features a full menu of wood-fired pizzas, sandwiches, salads, starters and desserts. The oven, fueled by oak wood, heats up to 900 degrees, cooking pizzas in about two minutes. The brand delivers an enjoyable, fast-casual pizza experience through the use of open-plan kitchens, which allows customers to customize and watch their pizzas being made right in front of them. All dough and sauces are made in-house, veggies are cut fresh throughout the day and even the meats are roasted in the wood-fired oven to infuse real oak wood flavor.

The restaurants cater to those looking for a quick lunch at a great value, and with the addition of the self-serve Taprooms, it’s the perfect place to have a drink and take advantage of the 25 – 45 different beer, wine and mixed cocktails options Smokin’ Oak Pizza Taproom walls have to offer. To use the Taproom, a guest will open a tab, be provided with an RFID enabled bracelet, and then be free to explore the Taproom wall. Guests can pour anywhere from one to twelve ounces at a time, trying anything they like. A Taproom guide will also be available to answer any questions regarding how to use the Taproom wall and offer guests recommendations.

Starting the year off strong in 2022, Smokin’ Oak Pizza is happy to announce the signing of its most recent development deal, which will bring two new Taproom locations to the Dallas – Fort Worth area in the next two years. The brand intends on signing additional development deals this year and entering new markets through its national franchising opportunities. With strong corporate support systems already in place, a low-barrier of entry and a robust operating system, Smokin’ Oak Pizza offers a viable franchising opportunity to passionate pizza lovers looking to bring the concept to their own local communities.

Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom is now searching for entrepreneurial franchisees, looking to become single or multi-unit operators. With a franchise fee of $49,500, the estimated initial investment to open a Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza franchise is $254,000 – $682,800. Taproom locations are an additional $90,000 – $180,000 depending on the number of taps. For more information, or if interested in a franchising opportunity, please visit www.smokinoakpizza.com.

About Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom

Founded in 2009 and franchising since 2017, Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom is a fast-casual franchise concept that serves authentic wood-fired pizza. Guests can customize their own pizza by choosing from over 35 fresh toppings or, by ordering one of the brands 12 Signature Pizzas, which include favorites like the Buffalo Chicken Pizza and the Smokey Dokey. Also available are a great selection of starters, salads, wood-fired sandwiches and desserts. Locations with an interactive, self-serve Taproom offer a wide selection of beer, wine and mixed-cocktails, that guests can pour themselves with a tap of a wristband.

Trusted Roofing and Construction Brand Aims to Achieve Expansion Goal by Opening Two Locations in Wichita.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Storm Guard – an innovative and community-driven roofing and construction brand – wants to bring their essential home restoration services to Wichita.

“With the wide range of temperatures, hail, tornadoes and storms that Kansas receives, it’s clear that our services are a necessity,” stated Shane Lynch, President of Storm Guard. “Wichita residents deserve to have their homes restored by honest and reputable contractors who put integrity first, too.”

After travelling to help communities that were devastated by natural disasters, the brand’s founders realized that their exceptional customer service and quality work was needed in a multitude of states. Since 2003, Storm Guard has been helping as many families as possible restore their homes after storms and solve problems that all property owners experience including roofing, siding, window improvements, painting, emergency tarping, and installing proper gutters. All repairs ranging from general home upgrades to storm restoration are completed with their customers’ best interests in mind, with the brand taking measures to ensure their satisfaction such as alleviating the stress of dealing with insurance claims and providing high-quality work without the high cost.

“We know that the work we do is important to those who have been affected by extreme weather and it’s crucial that we grow to reach as many people that desperately need our help as we can,” said Lynch. “Our services are critical for the families we provide services for everyday and we are thrilled to continue applying our passion for rebuilding communities by expanding in Kansas.”
