GLASS FRANCHISE EXPANDS IN FLORIDA WITH HELP FROM FRANCHISE GATOR

Posted on October 29, 2009 by Suzanne Musial

ROSWELL, GEORGIA – Franchise Gator today announced its client, NOVUS Glass, recently made two franchise sales in Florida as a direct result of the franchisor’s partnership with the internet-based pay-for-performance franchise marketing service.

John Easterbrook of Sarasota, Florida found NOVUS franchise information through the Franchise Gator website earlier this year when he went looking for a business opportunity and purchased his NOVUS Glass franchise in February of 2009. Easterbrook now proudly serves the counties of Manatee, Sarasota, Hardee and Desoto in the state of Florida.

"I have managed grocery stores for many years. I was looking for a business that I could own and operate. I was tired of making money for a corporation: Instead, I wanted to make money for my family," explained Easterbrook. "We know it will be a lot of work, but we are excited about the opportunity to grow our own NOVUS business in Florida."

Scott Osterman, another Floridian, also found NOVUS Glass through Franchise Gator's website and purchased his franchise in May of 2009. Osterman now serves Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties in Florida.

Osterman is thankful for the training and support NOVUS has provided him. As a skilled machinist and metal fabricator, he had a strong technical background but not a lot of business ownership experience. "I appreciate the experienced staff NOVUS provides to help me manage and market my new NOVUS business. I am a hands-on type of guy and I really enjoyed the training program NOVUS has developed," said Osterman.
