Spray-Net Experiences Tremendous Growth Following Sensational Brand Success

Tatyana Stemkovski2023-04-21T15:01:21-04:00April 21st, 2023|Tags: home improvement franchise, Spray-Net, weather-adjustable paint process|

Leading home painting franchise anticipates continued brand expansion across the nation in the upcoming year.

MIAMI — Spray-Net, the leading home-improvement franchise that is changing the way homeowners renovate, has seen impressive growth in its U.S. franchise opportunity over the past 18 months. The brand, which was recently recognized in Entrepreneur Magazine’s Franchise 500® as one of America’s fastest-growing franchises, is eager to continue providing customers with the most cost-effective way to modernize their properties by offering convenient, affordable, and durable home renovation options.

Spray-Net was originally founded in 2010 by Carmelo Marsala, who at the time was working as a conventional painter. While working one of his jobs, a customer asked Carmelo if he would be able to paint his vinyl windows. Limited by the quality of off-the-shelf paints available to him, and the results he knew they would produce, he, unfortunately, had to turn the customer down. This left Carmelo thinking, and he soon began drafting plans to bring the high-quality painting technologies used in factories to outside jobs – allowing him to offer services not seen by any other conventional painting companies. 13 years later, Spray-Net has grown to a booming franchise with over 130 locations, and an increasing list of patented technologies, services, and proprietary chemistries.

“When I first began building Spray-Net, I asked myself ‘how can we bring factory-quality results to homeowners?'” said Marsala. Using custom chemistry, Spray-Net developed smarter coatings and has now made it possible for homeowners to paint surfaces that are not traditionally painted on site, all within as little as a day. “Over the past 13 years, we’ve adapted our technology to various types of exterior surfaces as well as kitchen cabinets, all of which provide clients with the benefits of replacement for a fraction of the time, mess, and cost – and are backed by our 15-year guarantee.”

Since Spray-Net began franchising in 2014, the brand has grown to over 130 locations across the United States and Canada, with another 50 locations projected throughout 2023. Thanks to the brand’s proprietary technology, relatively low cost of entry, and lack of direct competition, the franchising opportunity has exploded, producing successful franchisees and happy customers across the country.

“The success we have seen over the past eight years is amazing,” added Marsala. “Our team’s tireless efforts to innovate our products and services, stay ahead of the curve with the latest technologies, and support our incredible franchisees have been integral to our ongoing success. We are so excited to continue to grow and thrive in the coming months, and cannot wait to see how far Spray-Net will go.”

With the hands-on training and support the brand offers, they have produced an impressive roster of franchisees who share Spray-Net’s original goal of offering a unique service that provides real value to homeowners. As a result, the brand allows homeowners to accomplish their interior and exterior renovation goals while creating a sustainable and eco-friendly way for homeowners to boost the value of their home – all without the hefty price tag.

Mathnasium Grows Global Footprint with Impressive International Expansion in Q1

Tatyana Stemkovski2023-04-21T14:40:51-04:00April 21st, 2023|Tags: math tutoring, math-only supplemental education franchise, Mathnasium|

Leader in Math Learning Centers Continues to Open New Locations Abroad, Projects 20% International Growth for 2023.

LOS ANGELES — Mathnasium Learning Centers, an internationally known franchise with over 1,100 math-tutoring centers worldwide, continues to grow its global footprint by opening four new international centers in Q1, with an additional four slated to open over the next two months. Building on this momentum, company leadership projects international development to grow 20% in 2023, compared to the previous year.

In Q1, Mathnasium proudly opened centers in Al Olaya, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; Al Juraina, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates; South Kensington, London, United Kingdom; and Al Maqtaa, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. These openings contribute to the brand’s overall global footprint that now spans 70+ centers across eight countries outside of the U.S. and Canada.

The opening of the Riyadh center is a milestone for the brand, marking its entrance into Saudi Arabia, and the first of 45 centers slated to open across Saudi Arabia over the next 10 years. The master franchisee behind this development agreement is Asma Aldahlawi, who was born and raised in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and has vast background in business and education.

“I first learned about the Mathnasium franchise opportunity after my son attended the learning center remotely and achieved tremendous improvements in his math abilities,” said Aldahlawi. “It has been incredibly rewarding to open our first center, and, in our first two months of operations, we’ve already exceeded enrollment goals. We have eyes set on continuing to develop in Riyadh and other major cities around the Kingdom.”

The opening of Mathnasium’s first center in Saudi Arabia comes at a pivotal time, aligning with the Saudi “Vision 2023” program. “Vision 2023” is built around three primary themes: a vibrant society, a thriving economy, and an ambitious nation. Quality education is being placed at the forefront, and Mathnasium looks forward to assisting children across Saudi Arabia to reach their goals.

“We have ambitious international development plans,” said Kevin Shen, Chief Development Officer of Mathnasium. “What we’ve been able to achieve in Q1 sets the tone for what’s to come during the rest of the year as we work to partner with sophisticated operators to support the brand and our growth journey. As we continue to grow across the globe, we look forward to empowering even more students through our customized learning plans and proprietary method of teaching.”

Company leadership sees vast growth potential across India, the Philippines, Vietnam, Spain, Mexico and certain South American countries, among others — all with the goal of opening the brand’s 100^th international location in 2024.

Key to Mathnasium’s international expansion is its proven 20-year-plus business model and the booming global after-school programs industry. Mathnasium has experienced a record increase in student enrollments as the spike in supplemental education continues to climb.

The brand’s impressive performance has earned multiple awards and recognition, most notably ranking No. 80 in Entrepreneur‘s highly competitive 2023 Franchise 500® ranking, and No. 1 within the math-tutoring category.

With prime territories available, Mathnasium provides franchisees with comprehensive training and support, including an initial training program, ongoing training, a balanced approach between corporate and locally driven marketing to capture the addressable market, and access to proprietary software tools and resources.

“We plan to further our global reach,” added Mike Davis, CEO of Mathnasium. “We’ll achieve this by working with existing franchisees who are expanding and new multicenter investors who want to join an industry-leading, worldwide network, with a time-tested business model and curriculum.”

Mathnasium Learning Centers specialize in math-only tutoring and are committed to providing the world’s best instruction. The goal: teach children math in a way that makes sense to them. For decades the Mathnasium Method™ has transformed the way kids learn math — building students’ understanding of math concepts through personalized instruction and a customized learning plan — all while producing tremendous results, and helping students achieve their full potential in math and in life.

About Mathnasium
Mathnasium Learning Centers is North America’s leading math-only supplemental education franchise. Since 2002, the Mathnasium Method™ — the result of decades of hands-on instruction and development — has been transforming the lives of children in grades K-12 by offering comprehensive assessments, fully individualized learning plans, and teaching true math comprehension.

Rolling Suds Strengthens Leadership Teams, Appoints Kevin Houben as Vice President of Operations

Tatyana Stemkovski2023-04-19T10:49:03-04:00April 19th, 2023|Tags: power washing franchise, Professional Wash Method, residential and commercial customers, Rolling Suds|

19-Year Industry Veteran Joins Leading Residential + Commercial Power Washing Franchise.

PHILADELPHIA — Rolling Suds, a leader in residential and commercial power washing for 30-plus years, strengthens its leadership team by appointing Kevin Houben as Vice President of Operations. With nearly two decades of franchising experience, Houben looks to build a roster of happy and profitable franchise owners.

Having recently announced its franchise opportunity, Houben joins the team at a prime time with Rolling Suds ready for rapid growth. With years of experience, he brings a unique perspective having been a franchisee himself and also working on the franchisor side with operations. Houben’s initial entrance into franchising started in college being a franchisee with a home services brand. His early career was spent in management consulting, he then co-founded and scaled a moving and junk business, and most recently served in an operational role at two different franchise brands – one emerging and one more established.

“Joining the Rolling Suds team is a great opportunity as I get to create and evolve our processes from scratch as we build out this brand,” said Houben. “There is no national player leading the charge in this industry – Rolling Suds has the opportunity to be that, and I’m excited be a part of it.”

Rolling Suds fills a void in the $537.9B home service industry and has vast whitespace available nationwide. One key differentiator of Rolling Suds is the quality and process of the service itself. Rolling Suds has proprietary cleaning process which utilizes high-quality materials and an expert staff of washers. With top-of-the-line equipment and highly trained professionals, Rolling Suds is a sustainable business with the ability to invest back into itself.

“As we take steps forward in advancing the Rolling Suds franchise opportunity, we have a clear vision for the future and Kevin will play a key role in helping us get there,” shared Aaron Harper, CEO of Rolling Suds. “Kevin brings a strong passion for and understanding of franchising to the team, and I look forward to the impact he will make.”

Rolling Suds was founded in the greater Philadelphia area in 1990 by Brian Wendling Sr. and eventually became a father-duo business with the addition of Brian Wendling Jr. as co-owner. An experienced home service franchise industry veteran, Harper acquired the franchising rights to Rolling Suds and became the CEO in January 2023.

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.

Rolling Suds is looking to bring on single and multi-unit franchisees. For more information on its franchise opportunity, visit https://rollingsudsfranchise.com/get-started/ or call 949-877-2948.

ABOUT ROLLING SUDS:

Rolling Suds is the premier franchise in power washing, bringing unparalleled standards to an unregulated industry. The company, founded more than 30 years ago, has helped more than 100,000 residential and commercial customers throughout the northeast while building a great reputation by hiring the best people, using the best equipment, and providing the best experience in the industry. Anchored by years of unmatched results, Rolling Suds aims to make power washing one less thing to worry about for customers across the U.S. by expanding into new markets.

Zoom Drain Opens First Franchise Location in Connecticut

Trusted Name in Drain and Sewer Services Set to Support Local Property Managers, Contractors, Plumbers and Homeowners with 24/7, 365 Drainage Solutions.

STAMFORD, Conn. — Zoom Drain – a leading operator of drain and sewer services – opened its newest franchise in Stamford, Connecticut on April 17th. Located at 130 Lenox Ave., Zoom Drain of Connecticut will proudly serve the surrounding areas. This is the first location in the state, with 43 locations nationwide.

The owners of the new location are Ken Binick and Leslie Tanca, a couple who reside in Riverside with their family. Ken, recently retired from a successful career in private equity, attended the University of Pennsylvania for undergrad and earned his MBA from Vanderbilt University. Leslie, raised in Simsbury, just outside of Hartford, graduated from the University of Connecticut’s School of Business and, following graduation, went into private equity as well. The duo have three kids; a 13-year-old daughter, an 11-year-old son and a 6-month-old son. When they are not running their new business, they enjoy watching their kids play sports, whether it’s lacrosse, track, baseball, football or basketball. What attracted the couple to Zoom Drain over other franchises was the level of professionalism the brand brings to communities across America and that it’s an essential service that helps both residential and commercial property owners.

“Having lived in Riverside for several years, we have seen how tight knit and supportive our community is and we are hopeful our business will lend a helping hand right back,” said Tanca.

“After years of being a part of large companies, we had aspirations of owning our own business. We are so excited to be launching and we are ready to give our all to help out communities throughout Connecticut,” Binick added.

Zoom Drain provides around the clock residential and commercial service centering on drain and sewer cleaning, sewer pipe video inspections, grease trap maintenance and much more. From clogged sinks and bathtubs to main sewer line blockages, Zoom Drain utilizes five different drain cleaning machines and a custom hydro-jetter to tackle any sewage issue that arises. Customers include commercial property managers, contractors, plumbers and homeowners in need of immediate solutions to drain and sewage issues.

AUSTIN, Texas — Leading IT managed services provider (MSP) CMIT Solutions is growing its capacity to serve the hospitality industry with the assistance of HKW, a middle-market private equity firm focused on growth companies in the US and Canada. CMIT Solutions is one of only a few MSPs with hospitality-specific IT and cybersecurity expertise and solutions. HKW’s support will help CMIT Solutions bring even more industry-aligned innovation to hoteliers through initiatives like increasing operational efficiencies and IT services fulfillment capabilities.

“For many years, we have been the go-to IT and security services provider for more than 400 hotel operators in 41 states. Our reputation for exceptional service within this space is strong, and now we have the opportunity to build on these strengths to define the next level of IT and security support for this rapidly evolving industry,” said Jason Arabian, CMIT Solutions Chief Strategy Officer and founder of the CMIT Solutions Central Rhode Island location that shaped the company’s extensive hospitality service offerings. “We have an intimate knowledge of the industry that we’ve leveraged to create and fine tune a hospitality-specific IT and cybersecurity service bundle. HKW’s investment enables our team to improve and scale our capabilities so we can deliver even bigger and better MSP solutions tailored to the hospitality industry.”

HKW’s backing strengthens CMIT Solution’s ability to assist a greater number of large hoteliers with expansive portfolios. Establishing a larger central team of IT and security professionals will provide clients with solutions for larger and more complex projects. According to American Hotel and Lodging Association, the demand for hotel lodging has increased 11.1% over the past 12 months. The continued growth of the hospitality industry increases its cyber risk profile driving the need for more sophisticated IT and cybersecurity products and solutions — this makes it the optimum time for HKW’s support.

CMIT Solutions offers a broad spectrum of technology services, from proactive computer monitoring and maintenance to cybersecurity solutions, with quick support when unexpected crises occur. Through locally-owned locations backed by an expansive network of nationwide resources and technology partners, CMIT Solutions has carved out its niche as an IT company that provides customers with unparalleled levels of one-to-one attention and advanced technology.
