Nationwide Floor Window - Easy Franchise Choices

Concept Summary

Never thought of owning a flooring & window covering business? Neither did 90% of our franchise owners. Nationwide offers two franchises opportunities under one model – A Mobile Flooring Business in a 50 billion dollar industry and A Mobile Window Coverings Business in a 10 billion dollar industry. Why be part of a 10 billion dollar industry when you can be part of a 60 billion dollar industry? Home improvement and new home construction is at an all time high. Where is the best place to shop for floor & window coverings, in a huge store under fluorescent lights, or in the comfort of your own home where the products will be installed? You know the answer!! A typical retail store has a tremendous amount of overhead. They pay rent, displays, electricity, fluorescent lights, sales commissions, insurance, large inventories… the list goes on and on.

Now let’s look at the overhead of a mobile franchise. Nationwide owners are home based, purchase a van with no money down and invest in networking opportunities and marketing. This is much more efficient than a retail store operation. The most important thing an owner will offer their customers is convenience and an exceptional buying experience. We come out to the customer’s home or office at a time that is convenient for them, measure the floors and windows to get done, and offer a complete selection of samples to choose from. Since we are referred to our customers by a business that has already established a relationship and trust with the homeowner, we are considered an industry partner. Owners provide a professional, no pressure consultation that results in a very high closing rate. (70% - 90%)

Nationwide is one of the most unique retail operations in North America. Unlike traditional retailers or other mobile businesses within this industry, Nationwide markets directly to the trades as well as consumers. Franchise owners market to the Insurance Industry, (Property Claims Adjusters & Fire and Water Restoration companies), Custom Home Builders, General Contractors, Interior Designers and Realtors.

Nationwide franchise owners run their business from home or a small office. An office manager is required after 12 months in business if you own a gold territory (this can be your spouse). Nationwide provides exclusive territories, a complete data base of the trades (referral sources) in your territory, a targeted direct mail campaign, national relationships with several of the trade associations such as N.A.R.I. (National Association of the Remodeling Industry) and A.S.I.D. (American Society for Interior Designers), eight weeks of training and a company that is nationally ranked in the top 200 for having the best training and support systems. Nationwide also has established National Relationships with companies like Prudential Real Estate, Realty Executives and Help-U-Sell.

The Insurance industry will look upon you to help a homeowner that just had some damage to their home. Realtors will want you to work with homeowners that perhaps need help getting their home ready to go on the market or to spruce up a new home they have just purchased. Builders, Contractors and Designers will look upon you to make their projects run smoothly.
