The new location provides dog waste removal services to residents and communities of all sizes.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va — DoodyCalls, a nationwide leader in pet waste removal services, is growing its footprint in the pooper scooper industry with the opening of an office in Reno, Nevada. DoodyCalls currently cleans up in over 78 territories across 25 states and has been named the number-one pet waste removal franchise in the United States by Entrepreneur Magazine’s annual Franchise 500 list.

Married couple and Reno locals Brian and Marlene Barrera knew they wanted to own their own business and try their luck in an entrepreneurial venture. After months of research and vetting different opportunities, the pair felt something click when they learned about scooping poop with DoodyCalls. A fun and niche concept that offered the ambitious couple a chance to flex their business acumen while benefiting from the franchise support DoodyCalls and parent company Authority Brands offered.

“As our first foray into franchising, my wife and I are excited to utilize our strong teamwork and passion for our home state to offer a unique and necessary service to our friends and neighbors,” said Brian Barrera, co-owner and co-operator of DoodyCalls of Reno. “We were drawn to the brand immediately and cannot wait to see our business grow and serve a larger footprint in our home state.”

Lifelong pet lovers with three pups of their own, Brian and Marlene knew how valuable time spent with pets can be and how time-consuming waste clean-up is. The pair look forward to giving their customers more quality time and keeping their Reno neighborhood clean. The Barreras are open for business in the Biggest Little City in the World and plan to give back to their community through initiatives like blanket drives and fundraising in the future.

“With their passion for entrepreneurship and diverse business background, our DoodyCalls family is confident in the Reno franchise team’s future in scooping their neighborhood,” said Larry Amos, Vice President of DoodyCalls. “We are excited to welcome the Barreras into our franchise family and know their success in the Silver State is a sure bet.”

The Reno DoodyCalls franchise will service the following areas: Crystal Bay, Incline Village, Reno, Sparks, Sun Valley, Verdi, Virginia City, and Washoe Valley.

The scoop on what DoodyCalls offers:

For residential dog owners, DoodyCalls provides dog waste pickup, brown spot treatment and deodorizing services.

Fibrenew Offers Full-Service Support Through Entire Franchising Lifecycle

Resale strategy proves successful in prolonging lifespan of franchise locations.

BLACK DIAMOND, AB — Fibrenew, the leading mobile service franchise specializing in the repair, restoration and renewal of leather, plastic, vinyl, fabric, and upholstery, prides itself on its commitment to franchisees, offering full support to owners starting the moment they first inquire about purchasing a franchise. That support continues throughout the entirety of the lifespan of the owner’s location, even if they choose it’s time to move on to the next stage in their career. As part of its succession strategy, Fibrenew provides a resale program for franchisees looking to sell their territory to a new owner.

Fibrenew assists in finding new prospective franchisees through means of the brand’s online platform, third party websites, and email blasts, along with helping in guide the current owner in advertising locally. Through Fibrenew’s careful selection process, outgoing franchisees can be reassured that the business they worked so hard to build will be going into the caring hands of a new owner who will continue that same progress.

“The goal of a resale is to keep a working franchise running and prolong a location’s lifecycle,” says Jamie Myles, who heads up the resale program with Fibrenew’s Corporate Team. “But with Fibrenew’s promised dedication to our franchisees, we also want to ensure the current owner has our full support as they consider their eventual exit from their investment, and that they will not be left high and dry to figure out what to do with their franchise on their own.”

While the strategy is not unique to Fibrenew, their program has proved successful over the years, with over 36 resales around the world since 2016, including 25 in the U.S.

“Having the ability to offer a resale strategy to our owners proves the brand’s sustainability, especially through times of economic uncertainty,” Myles said. “Fibrenew works hard to grow our brand with people who are the right fit.”

While some new franchisees have achieved the same level of performance with their location, others have gone on to grow their business, either expanding to multiple territories, or within their location. With 300 locations in operation around the world, Fibrenew remains dedicated to ensuring its franchisees find success in their operations.

About Fibrenew

Fibrenew is a leading mobile service franchise that specializes in the repair, restoration, and renewal of leather, plastic, vinyl, fabric, and upholstery.

Anago Cleaning Systems Expands Franchising System in Oklahoma

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-10-25T10:38:14-04:00October 25th, 2022|Tags: anago cleaning systems, commercial cleaning franchise system, commercial cleaning service, Master franchise opportunities|

Former Industry Vice President Launches Anago Master Franchise Operations in Oklahoma City.

OKLAHOMA CITY — Anago Cleaning Systems, an industry-leading commercial cleaning franchise with over 1,700 Regional and Unit Franchises throughout the U.S. and Canada, announced its newest franchise operations in Oklahoma. Commercial cleaning franchise industry veteran and entrepreneur, Eric Adame, will lead the Anago Master Franchise expansion in the Sooner State with an immediate focus on Oklahoma City and surrounding municipalities.

Eric’s extensive business experience includes the roles of Regional Vice President and Regional Director for another commercial cleaning franchise system. Before that, he spent years in the consumer and rent-to-own management industry, fine-tuning his skills in multi-unit business processes, operations, and, most importantly, customer service. After several businesses where Eric held minority ownership rights were sold, he decided it was time to venture out independently. After looking at several brands in the commercial cleaning franchise space, Eric chose Anago Cleaning Systems for its brand promise, company culture, integrity, genuine kindness, and personal touch of the people he encountered at Anago.

“I left my career to focus on Anago and decided on the great state of Oklahoma because of my previous years of traveling through the state and becoming familiar with the business climate and people,” says Eric. “I love Oklahoma City and its people and am excited about the prospect of helping first-time entrepreneurs and others realize their dreams of small business ownership. Oklahoma City is a competitive market for commercial cleaning. Still, with the growth and the high level of service offered by the Anago brand, I am confident we can offer a competitive advantage to all businesses looking to outsource commercial cleaning operations.”

“Eric’s professional background speaks directly to the core attributes needed to be a successful Master Franchise owner, and we’re thrilled to welcome him into our franchise system,” said Adam Povlitz, CEO & President of Anago Cleaning Systems. “Most importantly, Eric walks the walk regarding paving pathways and guiding others into small business ownership. He’s reachable, approachable, and genuinely interested in the personal and professional success of others, making him the textbook Master Franchise Owner and ambassador of the Anago brand.”

For those interested in learning more about Anago’s unit franchise opportunities in Oklahoma City, Eric says, “One of the biggest beliefs I have in business is supporting others. Entrepreneurs are a rare, special breed of people with the courage to invest in themselves, their work ethic, and their merit. I want those considering this opportunity to know I have traveled the path they’re on, and it’s important for them to know they’re not alone in this journey.”

“Eric knows what it takes as a first-time business owner because he’s done it repeatedly for other majority stakeholders. This is important especially given an undetermined financial landscape. With the nation facing a possible recession, taking that step makes it that much more difficult. Eric understands this from experience while adding the compassion to help others find success,” added Povlitz.

Because of this strong business ethic, history of growth, and business-friendly franchise program, Anago is consistently recognized by industry peers, including its regular inclusion within Entrepreneur’s suite of ranking systems. Anago has earned top positions for several years running in all the magazine’s main ranking systems. These include Fastest Growing Franchise, Top-Ranked Franchises Under $50K, Top Home-Based Franchise, and Top Global Franchise. Anago Cleaning Systems’ continued inclusion within these rankings demonstrates the brand’s rising popularity with franchisees and clients.

“Anago Cleaning Systems is a pioneer of the Master Franchise system, offering successful mid-career professionals to operate their regional franchises while allowing small business owners to invest in their own success,” added Povlitz. “Both levels simply focus on running their business while we provide the assistance, technologies, and critical marketing tools to grow. We expect continued growth and expansion into 2023 and beyond as an industry.”

The new Anago Oklahoma City office is located at 6303 N. Portland Ave, Ste 201. To explore unit franchise opportunities with Anago of Oklahoma City, contact Eric Adame at 405.724.4433 ext. 1004 or email Eric@AnagoOKC.com.
