Specialized Cleaning Group Lowers Franchise Fee

Posted on November 13, 2008 by Pete Kosowski

Atlanta, Ga. – The Corporate Cleaning Group has reduced the total franchise investment, cutting the initial franchise fee by more than half.

Devin Dollar, CEO of the Corporate Cleaning Group, says that in today’s economic times he is lending special attention to financial components which enable future franchisees to become successful within not only the organization, but also their communities.

"We are lowering our fee from $30,000 to $12,000 to help the businesspeople who have wanted to, but never been able, to take the plunge into franchising. This is a great time to get away from the corporate America business model and open your own business," Dollar said.

The Corporate Cleaning Group has enjoyed success through a niche market model in general janitorial service. Focused on touching every corner of schools, churches and hospitals with specialized cleaning tactics, the Group considers its business model to be highly adaptive during hard economic times.

"Although I believe we are some-what recession-proof, there is no question that margins in every arena will be more competitive during these times," Dollar said. "And being in a smaller niche market gives our business owners that much more of an advantage.

Another of the many advantages of being a Corporate Cleaning Group owner is the environment in which you operate. In corporate America, it’s all about the money, Dollar says, but in his market it’s not; it’s a different playing field with different attitudes. One of Dollar’s favorite examples is a story of one franchisee who cleans a local church and, in turn, is invited to multiple social functions, including their Christmas party. He’s like a member of their family, Dollar says.

A "ready, set, go" market and extensive training is not the only help the Corporate Cleaning Group is ready to provide future franchisees It supplies marketing and inside sales support along with developed, preferred vendor relationships that will enable franchisees to purchase chemicals, supplies and equipment at very affordable prices.
