Today's affluent homeowner doesn't have the time, skills or desire to perform small projects around the home.
WHY CASE - "We are a business not a concept"
Many franchise businesses are called "concepts" in the franchise world. At Case, our franchisees enjoy a relationship with a franchisor and a community of franchisees that have a combined experience in the thousands of years. Our national business evolved from a growing and solid home base in the Washington, DC area. Our franchisees can leverage our vast real world experience in the field, in the sales processes we utilize and in our business and reporting systems all of which are the result of many years of experience.
WHY FRANCHISE - FRANCHISING FACTS
Consumers like franchises because they offer known name brands and dependable quality standards.
Predictable start up costs make them economically advantageous.
Franchising offers the ability to be self-employed while being a part of a larger team.
Franchising provides you access to proven business and marketing tools, rather than reinventing the wheel.
The Department of Commerce reports that less than 5% of franchised outlets have failed each year since 1971.
U.S. Small Business Administration reports that 65% of business start-ups (non-franchise) fail within 5 years.
94% of all franchisees reported their franchise to be successful according to a Gallup survey.
