Description Of This Alameda County Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Chem-Dry Franchise Business For Sale:

Serving Castro Valley, Fremont, Hayward, Newark, San Leandro, San Lorenzo, And Union City (Metro San Francisco Cities). The Best Opportunity For A Honest Hard-Working Individual To Acquire A “Turn-Key” (Ready-To-Go) Business, Offering: Carpet Cleaning, Upholstery Cleaning (All Fabrics And Leathers), Pet Urine Removal, Oriental Rug Cleaning, Specialty Spot And Odor Removal, Mattress Cleaning, Carpet Repairs, And Water Damage. This Business Model Has Been Ongoing For Over 13 Years And Is Profitable (51K/Yr) With Net Assets Of 50,000. However, The New Owner May Coordinate His Or Her Efforts With The Nationwide Efforts Of The Franchisor/Retailer (Home Depot) Along With The Field Coaching Program And Generate A Business Which Is Very Rewarding And Profitable!

At This Time The Business Is Home Based (Licensed In Fremont) And The Only Overhead Expenses Come From Advertising, Telephone, Insurance, And A Monthly Franchise Fee Less Than 250! Assets Include: The Franchise Of Course, All The Equipment Necessary To Deliver The Entire Service List Stated Above, Plus A 2002 Chevy Express 1500 Cargo Van (70K Mileage) Fully Decaled With Company Logos, A Great Customized And Interactive Web Site, A Database Containing Over 3,300 Commercial And Residential Customers, Local And Toll-Free Phone Lines, And In-Office Training Materials As Well As Corporate Intranet Training For Staff And A Corporate Site (Logan, Utah) For Training New Owners.

Operational Coaching:
Become A More Successful Franchise Owner By Connecting With Your Harris Research (Corporate Managers) Field Operations Coach. They Will Not Let You Fail And Their Only Incentive Is To Make You Grow!

Franchise Terms:
Standard 5 Year Renewable Contract From Harris Research And Home Depot (Owners). In Addition To The Franchise, You Receive All The Assets Of The Business!

Expansion Potential:
Your First Move Should Be To Partner With The Corporate Managers (Hri) For Your Field Coaching And Become More Successful.
Working With Home Depot Should Create An Immediate Increase In Profits. Many Franchisees Have Not Taken Advantage Of This Relationship Because They Have A Good Customer Base Offering A Good Profit Margin And Current Customers Involve Very Little Sales Effort (They've Already Been Sold)! Home Depot Offers Many More New Customers (Mainstream) With Maybe Lower, But Very Good Profits. However, These New Customers Will Need To Be Sold Or Upsold As It's Called.

You Could Open A Retail/Work/Office Site To Increase The Number Of Rugs For Cleaning (Drop-Offs, Currently Picked-Up). This Office Could Also Be Your Place Of Business And Allow Many More Retail As Well As Customer Service And Employee Transactions!

You Could Expand The Water Damage Restoration Work (Very Profitable)

You Could Expand The Commercial Or Building Maintenance Cleaning.

You Could Add Tile And Grout Cleaning

Competition / Market:
Mostly Small "Mom & Pop" Steam Cleaning Shops Have Mostly Low-End Price Shoppers, But Some Of The High-End Customers As Well . The National Steam Cleaners (Stanley Steamers, Coit) Get More Of The Mainstream Or Average Customers And Some High-End. These Are Our Real Indirect Competitors (Steamers), But Their Quality Of Results And Service Is Below Average. There Are 4 Or 5 Chem-Dry Franchisees (Direct Competition) That Service This Area, But None Work With Home Depot.
Over The Years There Has Been A Trend Away From Carpeting As A Flooring Of Choice. However, It Remains The Most Cost Effective And The Best Value For Flooring If Properly Maintained. That Is The Message We Need To Convey, And Chem-Dry Offers The Best Methods And Materials For This Job. In Addition, A Few Years Ago Chem-Dry Introduced Tile And Grout Cleaning To Address This Movement. Keeping Revenues With You!

Reasons For Selling:
Current Owner Is Leaving Area To Persue Other Activities. Sons Have Other Interests And Desires And Will Not Continue Business. The Company And It's Customers Are An Ongoing Concern, So Outside Photos Of Van And Web Site Url Is Not Revealed For This Ad.

The Current Owner Can Be Available During The First 6 Months For On-The-Job Training And Guidance In Any And All Aspects Of Operations In Order To Make This Transition Easier.

For Accuracy And Legalities, Harris Research And The Home Depot Will Coordinate This Transfer.

Fyi. From Chem-Dry Corporate:
