Converting Your Appliance Repair Business with Mr. Appliance^®

Is Small Business Franchise Conversion Right for You?

Entrepreneurs usually choose to open a business in an industry they’re passionate about or have experience with. The startup process can be exhilarating, but many owners aren’t prepared to deal with tasks they might be less familiar with, such as marketing, inventory, payroll, and more.

Even though opening your own appliance repair business may have been incredibly fulfilling, it can be difficult to continue to build and maintain it all on your own.

Here are some challenges that many solopreneurs face:

• Building a well-informed business plan
• Establishing a customer base from scratch
• Developing a recurring customer base
• Trying to do it all (marketing, sales, business systems, and more)
• Achieving work-life balance
• Managing the business reputation
• Finding and retaining good employees
• Maintaining a strong digital presence

These struggles are some of the key reasons why many people choose the path of small business franchise conversion. An established franchisor like Mr. Appliance can take the weight off your shoulders when you roll your business into this outstanding franchise opportunity.

Franchising as a Small Business Growth Strategy

When you choose to roll-in your appliance repair business into a Mr. Appliance franchise, you benefit from a large support network. There’s an established system that helps put things in order, helping you take care of many tasks so you can focus on your passions and talents. It’s still your business, but you’re using franchising as a small business growth strategy and a path to better work-life balance.

“I like how organized everything to do with the franchise is, from the branding, advertising, and training, to the top-rate dispatching system. As long as I have my computer, I can manage my business from anywhere. The proprietary software helps me see everything that is going on with my business. All through my 20 years of being self-employed as a builder, I struggled with marketing, managing, and developing my business. But after joining Mr. Appliance, I see the value in a franchise system. If I were doing it on my own, there is no way I could have grown so quickly. All you have to do is follow the system, combine that with the right attitude and work ethic, and you will be successful. I am truly excited and proud to help expand the brand!".”

-Greg Dixon, Mr. Appliance Franchise Owner, Shreveport, LA
