CMIT Solutions Offers Veterans 20% Discount on Starting Their Own Business

Austin, TX – CMIT Solutions, a leading information technology solutions provider for small and mid-size businesses has announced it will be offering a 20% discount on franchises for qualified military veterans. These savings will equal nearly $8,000. CMIT Solutions enacted this program in hopes of providing honorably discharged veterans with a lucrative business opportunity.

“Many veterans often have a strong technology background that comes from years of service in our increasingly sophisticated armed forces,” said Jeff Connally, president and CEO of CMIT Solutions. “Not to mention, veterans possess unparalleled drive and dedication. We are honored to provide them with this discount in exchange for their years of sacrifice and service to our Country.”

In addition to the discount, as another incentive for veterans to purchase a franchise, CMIT Solutions will donate $1,000 to The Military Order of the Purple Heart whose principle mission is to provide support services to combat-wounded veterans and their families.

The generous military veterans discount and donation program comes on the heels of CMIT Solutions’ recently publicized plan to grow from its existing 100 locations to over 500 locations by 2011.

“This ambitious expansion requires experienced and skilled individuals; military veterans are a perfect fit,” Connally added. “Our armed forces have instilled within these men and women vital skills such as the ability to work within a solid business structure that will undoubtedly transfer over into business ownership. We have a number of veterans already building successful CMIT Franchises” he added.   

Currently, more than 10% of the CMIT Solutions system is comprised of military veterans.
