Evaluation Critieria: Best Lawn and Garden Franchise Opportunities
Growth Prospect
As we compare a large number of lawn and garden franchises it becomes important to not only ensure historical growth, but to identify franchises which are able to properly attribute the success of their franchised businesses. It is important to select a franchise which not only shows their ability to grow substantially over time, but to select one which understands why their franchised businesses grow.
Marketing Support
One of the major challenges many entrepreneurs have when looking to start a franchise is finding a franchisor which takes seriously their role of helping to build client interest. We recommend the types of franchises which are actively engaged in various marketing and advertising endeavors in order to assist their franchisees in building a relationship with their audience while helping them convert them into paying customers.
Training
We evaluate franchises based on the amount of training resources and guidance which they provide to their franchisees. It is important for the reputation of the franchise to ensure the best quality products and services are being offered to customers. Through innovative and informative training and educational practices the leading franchises can ensure consistent quality amongst their franchised businesses.
Ongoing Support
It is important for franchisees to feel as though they are receiving continued value over the course of their relationship with the franchisor. One of the ways this is achieved is by making sure the franchisor will be available to assist the franchisees in improving upon the products and services they are offering. It is also important for the franchisor to keep a channel of communication open with their franchised businesses.
Value
It is our genuine belief that franchises should bring to the table a soft value which is difficult or impossible to be replicated through other brands and reputations. Consumers looking for products and services for their lawn are looking for brands which have a strong reputation within their industry for performing quality work or offering products which are more likely to lead to a healthier and better lawn.
