Maid Brigade Introduces the "Select Market Program" -
An Exclusive Franchise Opportunity.
ATLANTA-July 23, 2007-Providing professional home cleaning with a focus on "Customers For Life," Maid Brigade is expanding
its franchise offering with its new Select Market Program. Designed with smaller geographical regions in mind, each Select Market
has an exclusive territory of 10,000 qualified households.
"We researched cities across the country and hand-picked markets for this new program," said Cathy Hay, Director of
Franchise Recruitment at Maid Brigade. "You won't see another Maid Brigade franchise in the area. Once the exclusive
territory is sold, the market is closed. Because of the territory size, franchisees can acquire a Maid Brigade franchise for
a much smaller investment, but still have access to all the sales, marketing and technology expertise we are known for.
We think the Maid Brigade Select Market Program offers the best opportunity in the industry.
"Unlike our other franchise programs, the Select Market Franchise is a home-based, low overhead business. The total investment
is under $36,000 with financing available for qualified candidates," Hay explained. "We discovered that potential new business
owners, who are considering franchising, weren't satisfied with the typical lower investment offerings on the market today.
So we decided to enter that market for two main reasons. One, it allows more people to open higher-end businesses for a lower cost,
and two, allows Maid Brigade to service a market we normally wouldn't have access to. It's a win-win for all."
To assist new business owners, Maid Brigade has already started the up-front work by researching the territory and
verifying qualified households. Hay continued, "When you sign on, we'll help you uncover local marketing and advertising
opportunities as well as community events and sponsorships. We'll show you ways to run your business including customer
acquisition and retention, personnel management and training, and office administration. In short, we'll do whatever we can
to help get you going."
Maid Brigade's training and support is comprehensive. From pre-opening throughout the life of the business, franchisee
support never ends. Maid Brigade offers training DVDs in English and Spanish, online manuals, home office training,
franchise group consultants, Webinars, bulletin board, e-mail, councils, conferences, an annual convention,
advanced training classes and technical support. Their exclusive Mentor Visit Program gives all new franchisees the opportunity
to work alongside an established Maid Brigade franchise. And, the extensive network of support staff is comprised of current
and former successful Maid Brigade franchisees. What better way to learn than from the best?
Maid Brigade franchisees are armed with the latest technological innovations to insure a competitive edge.
Their proprietary, MaidSmart™ software and Private Franchisee Internet site are part of the user-friendly Total Management
Software Solutions and are among the best in the industry. Maid Brigade provides the tools for managing every aspect of the
business from the moment of inquiry throughout the life cycle of the customer.
Maid Brigade also provides its franchise owners with some of the industry's most sophisticated marketing tools to help
grow their businesses, including a Client Services Website for individuals looking for Maid Brigade service.
Hay explained, "From the Total Management Software Solutions to the National Resource Center, Maid Brigade uses technology
to work seamlessly for your business. You won't find Maid Brigade chasing trends, we create them."
Maid Brigade is ranked as a "World Class Franchise"-The Most Prestigious Award in Franchising-and is Franchise
Approved by the Franchise Research Institute. According to the most recent FranSurvey®, 97% of Maid Brigade franchisees
rated Maid Brigade franchisor relations as good, very good, or excellent! Their culture is based on integrity and strong
positive relationships with everyone throughout the Maid Brigade organization.
"For the past 20+ years, we've been improving our franchise system to benefit our franchisees. The Select Market Program
is just one of many new programs we've implemented. From enhanced training and support to the latest technological advancements,
franchisees can count on Maid Brigade's dedication to improving the way we can all work more efficiently and effectively.
