• "Important in my decision to become a Master Franchisee is the need for a strong, supportive franchisor. Mint Condition Inc. has provided me with all the resources I need to effectively manage my business. This includes proprietary software including financial packages and data-based marketing tools, as well as industry experts to assist with operational and/or sales opportunities. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Mint Condition headquarters staff and am greatly appreciative of their commitment to help me succeed."
Ted Aron(left above) Mint Condition of Raleigh (NC):
"I came from a sales & marketing background from a fortune 500 company and knew very little about the commercial cleaning industry. Jack and his staff at Mint Condition Franchising have greatly exceeded my expectations in terms of getting me started and providing me with ongoing support with my Master Franchise in Raleigh. Without their help, it would have taken me years to have grown my business to the point where I am after just a few months"
Chris White (right above) Mint Condition of Georgia (Atlanta):
"My interest in becoming a Mint Condition Master Franchisee has three dimensions.
• "First, I want to build a scalable organization from the ground up into a market-share leader.
• "Second, I want to use my general management background to strategically grow the business with a focus on recruiting quality franchisees.
• "Third, I want to drive the business profitably and with enough depth in order to develop an attractive exit model. I continue to feel that all three objectives are realistic and achievable. (continued next column)
Sunil
Marolia, Mint Condition of Orange
County CA "Ultimately, Mint Condition was one of the only businesses that
satisfied the specific criteria I had developed when looking for
a business:
"1) Large market potential – I was
looking for a business that had a large enough market that would
meet my long-term financial goals.
"2) Domestic business hours – For nearly
that past decade, I had been in an executive role with an international
company which became extremely demanding on my personal time. Mint
Condition gives me predictability on my schedule and more free
time for my personal life.
"3) Recurring revenue – The recurring revenue stream was a
major attraction as I could see the long term benefits of developing
this business, where the early years of business development lead
to sustainable and profitable revenue for subsequent years. Combined
with a strategy for customer retention, Mint Condition provided
the highest long-term value for my investment.
"4) Investment requirements – The investment requirements
met my needs for a business that fit my resources. Furthermore,
this business provides good controls on cash flow and allows owners
to grow expenses only as revenue grows, unlike some other businesses
which require high operational costs from Day 1.
"5) Scalability – To reach scale, revenue
must be able to grow at a faster rate than your cost structure.
The Mint Condition Master Franchise provides this, with its franchise
owner-operator model which delegates much of the day-to-day business
aspects associated with each customer to the individual franchises.
Other aspects of the system allows specific functions to be delegated
to specialists who will drive those areas of the business enabling
scalability of the overall business as it grows."
