"Alright," you're saying, "enough of the Entrepreneur research stuff. Give me some links to actual franchise opportunities so I can start sniffing around and see what suits my interests, would ya?"
Ask and ye shall receive, SmallBizMentor visitors. Here's a list of companies that offer franchise opportunities, with a focus on services relating to homeowners. (Remember, this isn't an endorsement of anyone in particular; look before you leap. Let me know if you find the perfect match for your dreams!)
Just for fun, let's start with the ones who can build a house...then we'll move on to the companies who can fix it up or maintain it!
- UBuildIt: Provides residential construction consultation (I recently saw a house built with UBuildIt near my town...interesting!)
- Odd Job Bob: Handles everything from plumbing & electrical to painting, additions, and odd jobs.
- CertaPro Painters: Offers residential and commercial painting services.
- CTi (Concrete Technology Incorporated): Spray-on concrete system for patios, driveways, etc. (Their ad touts dealership investments under $10k.)
- Two Men and a Truck: Hey, somebody's got to move people into their fancy new digs, right?
