National Franchise Disasters™ occur in offices across the US everyday!

This will cost property owners millions of dollars this year.

Franchise cleaning companies begin big dollar advertising campaigns when they roll into town and make big promises to the consumer about service and price.

They will most likely grab as many accounts as fast as the salesman can drive from one building to the next, and then hire sub-contractors or Franchisees to do all of the work at a minimum price.

When you begin to realize that the cleaning service you receive does not measure up to the salesman's pitch

 

you are left with an office that is not clean, the company has your money in their pocket, and you are left with a dirty office, scrambling to find a reputable service to come in right away. You do not need this kind of trouble.

What can you do?

Do not hire a National or Franchise Company to clean your office or building.
If you do some quick research, you will find that the only employee that they have is the salesperson !

Although their advertisements may claim to offer the ability to staff your building with their employees, most of these companies utilize small contractors as sub-contractors!

This means that they have no control of the day to day operations and actually have no one from their company on your site.

So, do you really know who is in your building? Can you be sure that they are insured, registered or legal?

Why take that risk?

Why you should avoid Franchise Cleaning Companies. 

Most franchise cleaning companies do NOT make their money from the cleaning contract they have with you.

They make it by selling your contract to a franchisee.

They anticipate and actually expect some of the franchisees to fail!

It allows them to re-sell your contract to another franchisee.

Do you want the headache of having a new franchisee every 2 to 3 months?

If you have any questions regarding utilizing a franchise company, ask them to pass this simple test:

1. Ask for a list of cleaning customers that they have been servicing for 4 or more years

 

2. Ask for a list of franchisees that have been owners of a franchise for more than 5 years

 

3. Ask what the background is of the franchisee that will be cleaning for you.

 

4. Ask them how much of the invoice you pay will actually be received by the franchisee and then consider this; would you run a business for that low a rate? And how long?

 

5. After you’ve done all of this then check with the Federal Trade Commission and see how many former franchisees have litigation pending.

You have a Choice:

There are many things to consider when it comes to choosing a janitorial service.

We have already made some of those clear for you.

Here are a few others:

• Smaller, local, and family owned companies have time for you.

• You are the consumer (not a franchisee/sub-contractor) and you will be given the personal attention that you should be getting.

• Most of the money you spend with a locally owned and operated janitorial service will stay within your city or community, and this boosts your local economy.

• Someone is always available to attend to your needs, answer your questions or run over to your office within hours notice, because you matter to them.
