Jan-Pro Cleaning & Disinfecting Set to Continue Momentum Through the Second Half of 2021

The country’s premier commercial cleaning franchise grows national presence in its 30th year.

ATLANTA — Jan-Pro Cleaning & Disinfecting – one of the largest commercial cleaning franchise brands in the country – is continuing to provide cleaning and disinfecting measures to help create a safe environment for business owners, employees, and customers across the nation. JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting saw continued success transitioning from 2020 to 2021, with incredible growth due to the rise in demand for recurring cleaning and disinfecting services. The brand expects its growth to continue as we enter the second half of the year as business owners are committed to prioritizing the safety of their employees and customers, especially with the approach of Fall and Winter.

“We weren’t entirely sure what to expect in the beginning of the year as the pandemic continued to ravage the nation. Halfway through the year, we’ve seen safety mandates change across the country, leaving many Americans feeling confused and vulnerable,” said Gary Bauer, president of Jan-Pro Systems International. “We expect the demand for our experts at JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting to continue through the second half of 2021 as the country reopens, ensuring everyone’s safety through regular foundational cleaning and supported with routine disinfecting.”

JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting looks to finish 2021 strong after touting impressive numbers over the past year. Here are some of their biggest achievements:

Over $600M in system wide sales
The system has grown over 19% in the last year, with 15+% as of May, and growth is expected to continue
Their markets achieved 4-5 times growth in disinfecting services, as disinfecting services became 25% of their recurring billings

Additionally, JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting launched their Protect Tomorrow campaign earlier this year, as Americans have become hyperconscious of their health and safety. With this heightened awareness, the brand intends to use the Protect Tomorrow campaign to highlight the importance of regular cleaning services, how this contributes to the health of workers, and help reduce the costs for businesses associated with sick leave.

“Employees and customers will want to know how their local businesses and leaders are keeping them safe,” added Bauer. “It will also be crucial for business owners and their employees to be able to explain how they are creating a safe and clean environment as the reopening process across the country continues and we move towards cold and flu season.”

And now businesses will be held to a higher standard than ever before when it comes to cleaning and disinfecting. To meet this standard, businesses can trust the JAN-PRO Signature Clean^® used alongside their proprietary disinfection system, EnviroShield^®to provide facilities with the ultimate level of protection.

Jan-Pro Cleaning & Disinfecting has the technology available to disinfect businesses and facilities of all kinds. JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting’s EnviroShield^®system is the same system used to disinfect hospital operating rooms.

It uses an EPA-rated disinfectant that is the safest in its class while killing 99.9% of harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
The electrostatic spraying nozzle disinfects all sides of objects, including the bottom side of handles and knobs.
It’s environmentally friendly and safe enough for everyday use without leaving any residue or odor.

Looking ahead, JAN-PRO is ready to continue to grow its brands and exceed customers’ expectations, looking to end 2021 strong.

15 new JAN-PRO Franchise Development owners have entered the system in the last 12 months
65 territories in the US and several international markets have been made available, demonstrating tremendous growth opportunities

JAN-PRO Systems International has recently made an additional 65 regional territories available across the United States and several international markets to bring their proven business model to more customers. With that expansion will come the opportunity to help more aspiring business owners enter into business for themselves. Currently, the brand is looking to expand its presence in a number of areas including: Madison, WI; Des Moines, IA; Sioux Falls, SD; Myrtle Beach, SC; Wichita, KS and many more.

Batteries Plus Surpasses 50 Signed Agreements, Sees Record-Breaking Growth in First Half of Year

Tatyana Stemkovski2021-07-21T12:05:53-04:00July 21st, 2021|Tags: Batteries Plus Bulbs, phone repair services, retailer of batteries, specialty light bulbs|

Nation’s Leading Specialty Retailer Ends Q2 with Monumental Signings, Looks Forward to Promising Months Ahead.

HARTLAND, Wis. — Batteries Plus, the nation’s largest and fastest-growing battery, light bulb, key fob and repair franchise, is having its best development year in the almost three decades since it began franchising with 52 new signings to date for 2021 so far. In fact, Batteries Plus exceeded 2020 total store signings by mid-April this year, setting company records and generating excitement around the brand and its trajectory for the rest of the year. With the leadership of newly promoted Vice President of Franchise Development and Relations, Joe Malmuth, Batteries Plus is on pace to surpass 75 franchise signings by the end of the year.

The close of Q2 brought many milestones for the specialty retailer, including the inking of the largest multi-unit deal in company history which will expand the brand in the Raleigh-Durham market. The 2021 signings will break the brand into new markets across the country including Yuma, Arizona, West Lebanon, New Hampshire and Long Island, New York. In addition to record franchise signings, Batteries Plus also opened the doors to eight new stores during the first half of the year.

“Batteries Plus has spent decades building a reputation as an industry-leading franchise opportunity and we have continued to solidify our spot as one of the most stable, lucrative business models out there,” said Scott Williams, CEO of Batteries Plus. “Joe and his team are driving sales and excitement around our brand and investors are taking notice at an unprecedented rate. I am confident we will be the brand to watch as we head into the second half of the year.”

Not only has Batteries Plus seen record-breaking investment in the brand thus far in 2021, the company has implemented tactics to continue to support its current franchisees through the volatile environment brought on by the pandemic. The brand has taken proactive steps to spare its franchisees from inventory obstacles plaguing retailers around the globe. Having a solid model in place and team members who are always available to answer questions and address concerns is what has helped franchisees avoid major business obstacles. This year has also brought development and expansion of Batteries Plus leadership team – further solidifying a strong foundation to help continue to support franchisees.

Over the past 10 months, Batteries Plus has inked a total of 75 signings, 90 percent of those being multi-unit investments. The second half of the year is looking just as promising for the retailer as there are multiple multi-unit agreements in the works, slated to be signed in the coming weeks. These deals will expand the brand in the Pacific Northeast, the Southwest including Arizona and Utah and the South including Florida, Texas, Louisiana and Alabama.

Before signing on the dotted line, Batteries Plus provides prospects software data that reveals projected territory performance details including store traffic information and within a week of signing and a member of Batteries Plus flies into their market with sites to tour. A key growth factor is the brands transparency with investors and the ability to see the projected territory performance metrics before even signing. With the multi-billion dollar markets the franchise model is built on (Batteries, $110B; Bulbs, $118.3B, Device Repair, $4B, Key Fobs, $4.82B, Smart Home Technology $28.86M), multi-unit owners are able to quickly open locations with speed and efficiency.

With over 700 store locations nationwide, Batteries Plus franchise owners are passionate about providing essential products and services for their local communities. Batteries Plus has also carved out a unique niche in the industry with its ‘plus’ services – including battery installation and key fob programming – capitalizing on both its knowledge and service offerings. Positioned for the battery-powered future, Batteries Plus supplies fundamental products that power people’s lives – wheelchairs, mobility scooters, thermometers, etc.

Premium Service Brands Partners With VIRTI and MURSION To Create VR-Powered Owner Experience Learning Program

Tatyana Stemkovski2021-07-20T10:21:12-04:00July 20th, 2021|Tags: 360° Painting, Handyman Pro, HomeOne, Kitchen Wise, Maid Right, Premium Service Brands, ProLift Garage Doors, Renew Crew, Rubbish Works|

Following a recent private equity investment, the multi-brand home services franchisor is leveraging new virtual reality and role playing platforms to teach incoming franchisees leadership and higher-order decision making skills.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Premium Service Brands, the parent company of home-service franchises 360º Painting, Maid Right, ProLift Garage Doors, Renew Crew, Kitchen Wise, Handyman Pro and Rubbish Works, has announced the roll out of its new Owner Experience Program, a tech-powered learning experience designed to immerse its incoming franchisees in the day-to-day life of their new business.

The Owner Experience Program is a culmination of Premium Service Brand’s in-depth research analyzing the actions and best practices of owners with exceptional launch results, to see what separated them from the pack. The company discovered that practice, communication skills and mindset played a significant role in positioning owners for successful launches and set out to revitalize the established Premium Service Brands onboarding program in an attempt to make the experience more impactful with the help of innovative technology and the new Owner Experience Center.

Most notably, Premium Service Brands partnered with two companies — Mursion and VIRTI — to give owners a platform to practice estimates, sales calls, hiring and recruiting in a virtual reality and role playing setting.

Mursion is an immersive VR platform focused on improving emotional intelligence in the workplace. Mursion uses a combination of A.I. and live human interaction to create a safe environment for practicing skills like emotional intelligence, adaptability and resilience. The aim is to create an authentic but risk-free simulation without harming an individual’s performance or a company’s reputation.

VIRTI is a U.K.-based startup that uses immersive AR/VR scenarios to teach hands-on skills in realistic settings. Premium Service Brands is VIRTI’s first home services industry partner and will be pioneering a new market for the startup.

In order to emphasize the experiential aspect of the onboarding process, Premium Service Brands also plans to unveil a newly designed learning and development center. The center’s layout will be arranged in pods instead of an instructor-led classroom to ensure all parties are able to work together collaboratively.

“The Owner Experience Program is all about having the opportunity to practice the skills critical for owner success and getting real-time feedback,” said Deb Jewell, vice president of learning for Premium Service Brands. “We want to show our franchisees how to leverage their own strengths and experience to be a more effective leader and decision-maker. By helping owners build a mental map on how all the aspects of our model fit together, we are confident they will leave the Owner Experience Program with a stronger and more holistic understanding of what it takes to run their business on a day-to-day level.”

Premium Service Brands is rolling out its Owner Experience Program on the heels of a recent private equity investment by Susquehanna Private Capital. SPC invested in the multi-brand franchisor to help the company strengthen its presence in the rapidly growing home services industry and to make advancements to its business model.

“We have been aggressively growing all of our PSB concepts over the past few years, and this investment will allow us to build out our infrastructure and business model so we are better positioned to support new owners at the rate at which they want to join,” said CEO Paul Flick. “The Owner Experience Program is one of the many new improvements we are making to our system to help us recruit, develop and support the very best franchisees for each of our brands.”

ABOUT PREMIUM SERVICE BRANDS:

Headquartered in Charlottesville, VA, Premium Service Brands (PSB) is the leader in home services franchise opportunities. Recently acquiring Renew Crew in January 2020 and Rubbish Works in November 2020, the other brands under the PSB umbrella include 360º Painting, ProLift Garage Doors, Handyman Pro, Maid Right, Rubbish Works and Kitchen Wise. These home improvement industry brands provide franchisees with comprehensive training and support for every step while viewing customer service as a way of life by also giving back to local communities through their nonprofit, Kids-Lift. Supporting kids and their families is crucial to PSB’s personal values to brighten and care for their communities. More on franchising opportunities at: https://www.premiumservicebrands.com/.

Sport Clips Haircuts to hold National Signing Days July 26 and 27 to fill growing franchise’s openings for professional stylists

GEORGETOWN, Texas — Sport Clips Haircuts, the leading franchise dedicated to men’s and boys’ haircare, is growing and so is its need for professional stylists. Coming up July 26 and 27, all 1,850 locations will host National Signing Days with:

– Guaranteed interviews
– Instant job offers for qualified candidates
– Chance to win one of 25 BaBylissPRO FX Combo styling tools

“Sport Clips locations are looking to hire the best stylists and barbers who want to be a part of building something exciting and joining a team that feels the same way,” says Edward Logan, Sport Clips Haircuts president and CEO. “Sport Clips came through 2020 in great shape and is investing heavily in the future with continued store openings and technology that helps clients and stylists. Most importantly, stylist earning potential is higher than ever, with tips at an all-time high. Our local franchisees are excited to meet you and we hope you come in and join us for this event.”

Some compelling stats for stylists eager to put their talent and training to work for a company with the visibility and foot traffic Sport Clips has to offer came from a recent study the brand conducted with OnePoll that indicates:

– A higher percentage of men are willing to try new haircuts so there’s ample opportunity to put their creativity to good use, especially since 47 percent of the men surveyed say they “don’t know what hairstyles look good on them.”

– After 74 percent of respondents said they cut their hair at home or did not cut their hair during the pandemic, the timing is ripe with clients returning to get back-to-school, travel, wedding, and back-to-the-office haircuts.

“What’s great for stylists is that the majority of Sport Clips locations are locally owned, so they can work for a nationally recognized brand with local store owners and team members,” says Julie Vargas, a licensed stylist, and Sport Clips vice president of career opportunities. “Plus, choosing to work for Sport Clips gives stylists the opportunity to wear comfortable, sports attire; work on custom anti-fatigue flooring; and experience on-going training and career advancement options.” Both Glassdoor and Comparably have ranked Sport Clips as a top place to work.

Staffing Industry Leader NEXTAFF continues strong numbers, during pandemic

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — The global pandemic of 2020 was devastating to many industries and private businesses, however NEXTAFF, a staffing franchise company, was a clear outlier.

NEXTAFF has reported exceptionally strong numbers in its 2020 Franchise Disclosure Document:

Average Gross Sales per Unit: $1,957,832
Average Gross Profit per Unit: $464,642

“The strong numbers are a result of our commercial franchise owners pivoting to essential services and our health care offices seeing record demand for staffing services,” says Cary Daniel, Co-Founder and CEO. “As employers continue to adjust through this shift from 9-5 to flexible hours and remote work, staffing franchise companies like NEXTAFF will continue to play a vital role in the economy’s bounce back in 2021 and beyond.”

NEXTAFF operates in 3 main verticals: commercial, information technology and healthcare, which all had pressing and urgent staffing needs in 2020 and now more so in 2021.

Currently, staffing companies place 16 million employees per year! As workers shift from a nine-to-five, permanent workforce to a flexible, on-demand workforce, there has been massive growth within this industry. The days of long-term, salaried, full-time jobs are over for a growing number of Americans – and temporary and contract work is here to stay. An often-cited Intuit report predicts that contingent workers (such as freelancers, temporary employees, contract workers, or consultants) will make up an astounding 40% of the workforce in the near future.

“We have Staffing Franchise Owners that due to the pressing needs for vital staffing are generating 7 and now 8 figures in annual revenue,” says Daniel.

About NEXTAFF

NEXTAFF helps companies recruit, screen and hire quality talent through our proprietary X-FACTOR™ model. Our comprehensive approach is designed to considerably outperform a traditional temp agency supplier model. Each NEXTAFF office is locally owned and operated, which allows our clients to work directly with owners in finding quality employees.

Leading Waste Management Franchise becomes 11th brand to join the world’s largest residential and commercial services franchise group.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — BELFOR Franchise Group (BFG), the world’s largest residential and commercial services franchise group, today announced its acquisition of redbox+, a leading waste management solutions company that offers the industry’s only combination dumpster roll-off and portable toilet containers for rent for commercial, industrial and residential project job sites. The acquisition allows BELFOR Franchise Group to continue to strengthen and expand its overall service offerings through redbox+’s innovative approach to waste management needs.

With nearly 300 franchise units nationwide, redbox+’s patented 2-in-1 roll-off container comes with both a dumpster and a portable restroom. This unique offering provides construction, renovation, and restoration companies with a simple solution to keep their job sites clean and efficient. OSHA requires that toilets are provided for employees at all construction sites, which keeps redbox+’s services in high demand. Current and future redbox+ franchise owners will benefit from the strong support team and systems at BFG, a division of BELFOR Property Restoration (BELFOR), the world’s largest disaster restoration company.

“We are thrilled to welcome redbox+ to the BELFOR Franchise Group family,” said Sheldon Yellen, CEO of BELFOR. “Redbox+’s one-of-a-kind combination system – and the cost-savings it provides – has attracted contractors for over a decade. We’re proud and excited to have been chosen by redbox+ as the best partner, especially considering how well their core offerings complement the array of services our other brands provide. The addition of redbox+ strengthens our growing portfolio of industry-leading home services franchises by enabling us to meet the needs of even more customers and better serve the communities that need us most.”

Across the country, redbox+ currently operates thousands of roll-off trucks and containers hauling thousands of tons of waste daily for its customers. In addition to the 2-in-1 roll-off container, redbox+ also offers 20-, 30- and 40-yard containers, as well as a smaller, 10-yard container for consumer DIY and waste removal projects.

“Redbox+ offers a unique opportunity for franchisees interested in growing a business in a niche, in-demand industry,” said Patrick Kiessling, President of redbox+. “I have witnessed the evolution of the waste management industry over the past 10 years and truly see the value in franchising – which is why I am proud to join forces with BELFOR Franchise Group. Having the backing of respected industry leaders at BFG and BELFOR will help our current and future redbox+ franchisees meet and exceed their business goals.”

“It’s been both exciting and rewarding to lead redbox+’s phenomenal growth in recent years, which has been fueled by our innovative offering and our passionate franchisees,” added exiting CEO Josh Skolnick. “Under the umbrella and stewardship of the BELFOR Franchise Group, I’m confident the future for redbox+ is brighter than ever.”

For more than a decade, BFG has empowered entrepreneurs to own businesses that are designed for growth by offering industry-leading training, support and equipment, proven business models and ongoing coaching and business development. Redbox+ is the company’s 11^th service-based franchise in the U.S. and Canada. Notably, BFG is the only residential and commercial services franchisor owned by an operating company, BELFOR, and franchisees across all 11 brands benefit from the strength of the growing network. This continued growth positions the organization to better serve its vast and diverse customer base.

All redbox+ locations will retain the redbox+ brand name and the company will continue to operate and conduct training out of its existing facility in St. Charles, MN.
