The Footprints Floors home services franchise has come a long way from our humble Colorado beginnings back in 2008. Since offering franchise ownership opportunities, our home state has completely sold out, and our business model has expanded into 34 other states with over 150 territories now in operation – with more territories being awarded every year!

However, despite all this growth in our past, present, and future, we still get excited with each new franchise we award. This time, we’re excited to introduce you to Chip Dunn, a former Retail Operations Manager and excited husband from the Lawrenceville-Sugar Hill neighborhood of Georgia! Let’s take a look at the path Chip took to find us and how he knew we were the right fit for him after meeting our support team at Approval Day!

Coming to Us from Georgia, Let’s Meet Chip

Chip’s Background

Every candidate who becomes a franchisee experiences a moment in their career that encourages them to take a leap of faith and go into business for themselves. For Chip, his sudden job loss from his retail store operations management position is what caused him to begin looking for new business opportunities – and, ultimately, franchising. In addition to managing operations across multiple major retailers, Chip was also a Project Manager for a national commercial security company, where he was exposed to sales and empowered to develop his own accounts.

Also, his residential real estate sales and family office supply business experience helped give him the varied background he’ll leverage as he wears multiple hats in growing his new flooring business.

Getting to Know Footprints

While it was a franchise coach who facilitated the introduction between Footprints Floors and Chip, it was Chip who took the initiative to move forward with the discovery process and approval day. After researching and chatting with some of our current Franchise Owners, Chip appreciated the home-based model, low initial financial investment, quick ramp-up time, and successful, well-established business model. Additionally, after reviewing our Franchise Disclosure Document, it was the higher earning potential – even in year one – and the territory demographics of his community that sold Chip on the Footprints franchise concept.

Meeting the Team at Approval Day

Approval Day is a chance for potential franchisees to meet with the Executive and Support Team in Colorado, spend a day with them to get to know each other, and see the Footprints Floors business model in action. While not everyone who attends goes on to join the flooring franchise, Chip Dunn was one who liked what he saw and used that experience to make his final decision to become a home improvement Franchise Owner.

“My decision was 90% made prior to Approval Day, but there were a few things that sealed the deal for me. I was impressed that the executive team made time to load up strangers like myself in their personal vehicles, tote them around to job sites, and make themselves available to answer any questions while providing a ‘day in the life’ overview of a Footprints Owner.”

However, he didn’t attend Approval Day on his own. Although she won’t be directly involved in the business, Chip considers his wife a huge part of any decision in their life, and it was her belief that franchising with Footprints was a viable business option that validated Chip’s decision. Plus, once Bryan Park answered his question on the origin of the Footprints name and its meaning, the Dunn’s felt they had confirmation that this was a company rooted in relatable principles and integrity, and they knew it was a great fit for their life.

His Decision to Move Forward

After returning home from Approval Day, Chip knew that while he was ready to pull the trigger and become a home services Franchisee, he needed the second opinion of the person closest to him: his wife. Together, they saw the unique, proven business model supported by our team and operational systems, in addition to our low initial financial investment, low overhead expenses, and quick ROI. With her careful scrutiny leading to her full support, Chip was ready to take the next step and officially sign on with the Footprints Floors flooring franchise.

Bringing Footprints to His Corner of Georgia

Once Chip decided that Footprints was for him, he looked toward his Georgia territory, which was determined to stretch from Sugar Hill northward to Gainesville, eastward to Athens, south to Monroe, and back west through Lawrenceville and Buford. This market will likely have tremendous revenue potential for both solid hardwood floors and refinishing services, and Chip also suspects tile and laminate surfaces will also be in demand in these neighborhoods.

This territory represents a great mix of existing homes and homeowners who not only plan on renovating and updating their existing properties but also look toward new construction and areas for future development. With a mix like this, it looks like long-term sustainability won’t be hard for Chip to come by. There will also be a vast demographic of middle to upper-middle-class communities within this territory, giving our newest home improvement Franchisee plenty of opportunity to introduce Footprints Floors to Lawrenceville-Sugar Hill, Georgia.

Join Us in Welcoming Chip to the Footprints Floors Family!

The Footprints Floors team sat down with Chip for a Q&A to hear from him what he thought of our discovery process, what about his background has prepared him for this, and what he’s most looking forward to with opening his own Footprints Floors location!

“Why do you believe you will be successful with this franchise?”

C: “[My] years of exposure in a retail environment has uniquely equipped me to run my own business both in terms of a P&L operational aptitude but also from a service-first mentality. The blueprint is already drawn [at Footprints Floors], so it’s literally a matter of duplicating what’s been designed.”

“What are your goals with owning Footprints Floors, and what are your long-term entrepreneurial goals?”

C: “I have a number of personal financial goals I’d love to achieve, but I’m singularly focused on that being a byproduct of serving my customers with absolute integrity and commitment to exceeding [their] expectations. Additionally, I look forward to giving back to charitable causes [that] positively impact children, veterans, and first responders. [My long-term] goal is to build a successful legacy business that can be taken over by my son and perhaps also move into other home service trades.”

“What excites you most about your Footprints Floors location?”

C: “Every Footprints Floors territory is designed to demographics that are proven to be successful. All I have to do is follow a proven plan, and the business is just waiting to be captured. My service area has tremendous growth potential.”

As our team works to bring Chip on board in the Lawrenceville-Sugar Hill area, we’re also looking forward to our next new home services Franchise Owner! If Chip’s story resonates with you, or you can imagine yourself in his shoes as he prepares to open his new business, you’re in the right place!

Common Franchise Ownership Expenses & Meeting Bob Linda, Our Newest Franchise Owner!

If you’re clocking into a job you can’t stand each day, dreaming of a future where you build a business and financial freedom for yourself, the cost of doing so is probably one of the first things you consider. If you’re a certain type of person, this thought may also be the thing holding you back, but it doesn’t have to be. At Footprints Floors, our founder started the home improvement franchise with tens of thousands in credit card debt, but he pushed past this, accepted the expenses of pursuing his dream, and created the flooring franchise that dozens of Owners follow today.

So, what are the expenses you can expect with home improvement franchise ownership, and which can you plan to see every month? In this article, we’ll look at seven of the most common costs of running your own Footprints Floors flooring installation business, as well as meet one of our newest Franchise Owners to join the Footprints family: Robert Linda!

The 7 Most Common Footprints Floors
Franchise Expenses

Initial Franchise Fees & Equipment to Get Started

As you start your own business, one of the first things you need to consider is the associated start-up cost. When you choose to become a Footprints Floors Franchise Owner, the first financial commitment you can expect to make involves your franchise fee and all the additional associated costs. This can fluctuate depending on the number of territories you’re choosing to start with or if you qualify for our veteran’s discount.

With Footprints Floors, our all-in investment starts at only $78,000!

This initial financial investment includes business/administration needs such as a laser measuring device, $200 in apparel credit to purchase your first uniforms, the initial marketing materials (including business cards), as well as proposal forms and estimate notepads to maintain a professional appearance with your customers.

Depending on the franchise, the initial equipment you need to hit the ground running will likely warrant the need for a new vehicle or a vehicle wrap, so you can easily advertise your business as you drive to and from client appointments. When you franchise with Footprints Floors, we encourage you to choose the vehicle that works best for you; we just require that it meet our standards and specifications, as well as be properly registered and insured as a commercial vehicle in the county and state of your territory.

Everyday Technology

As with running any type of business in our modern, digital world, you will need reliable technology in order to manage your everyday tasks, and this can include everything from phones and computers to payment processing software. While you can mitigate some of these costs when you’re a solo owner-operator by using the technology you already own, you will need to invest in additional assets once you have employees that will need their own computers or cell phones. As you scale, you may also need to purchase additional licenses for the necessary software tools you use every day.

As a Footprints Floors Franchise Owner, you will be provided with the software necessary to get the job done, so you can trust you’ll have what you need and will know what costs to expect each month. This doesn’t include the purchase of additional computers, cell phones, or internet or phone bills, giving you the freedom to choose the provider or brand that you prefer most.

Initial & Regular Training

When you first join a franchise, one of your first introductions to becoming a franchisee will be your initial training. This will help you understand the ins and outs of the home improvement business so you can effectively run your territory when you get started. This essential expense will always prove worthwhile, but it should also be complemented by attending regular training courses your franchise might provide, or sending new employees to training as needed. Industries and businesses change all the time, so it’s important to keep yourself and your team up to date with the newest systems and processes your corporate team creates.

Professional Services

As with owning any kind of business, you will need to outsource certain professional services as you grow. While you may be able to act as your own accountant or write your own agreements when your revenue is in the tens of thousands, you’ll quickly find yourself paying for professionals to handle these tasks later on. This will not only help you free up your time so you can focus on building your home flooring business or providing the oversight your operations need from you, but it will also ensure that these critical tasks are being handled by an expert in the area.

Digital Marketing Efforts & Collateral

All successful businesses grow through effective marketing, whether that’s traditional print, digital marketing, or even through customer recommendations. Since the vast majority of marketing comes with some associated costs, whether it is monetary or time out of your day, it’s important to keep that in mind as you plan your expenses. When you become a Franchise Owner with Footprints Floors, much of the marketing is done for you, including hosting your website and designing all of your marketing collateral. By allocating a budget to our corporate support team each month for your marketing, you’ll have predictable marketing costs, letting you focus on building your business instead of catching up on bills.

Meet Our Newest Flooring Franchise Owner, Bob Linda!

Joining us from Fairfield, California, Robert (Bob) Linda made the decision to take a leap of faith and jump into the world of franchising. From first hearing about Footprints Floors through his franchise consultant, to flying out to Denver, Colorado, to get first-hand experience with the home services franchise, Bob’s experience meeting the team has laid a foundation for an exciting, well-supported new journey for him. As his first venture into business ownership, both he and our Founder and CEO, Bryan Park, are excited for him to dive in and can’t wait to see his persistence pay off!

Bob’s Background

Our newest Footprints Floors Franchise Owner, Robert Linda, joined the armed services directly out of high school with the intention of pursuing a career in the Air Force. However, one serious injury later, and Bob was forced to leave active duty. Rejoining the civilian job hunt, he found employment in the ammunition industry to be tricky to attain, so he instead went to work in a family business focusing on pest control sales. He soon discovered that he enjoyed and was adept at selling, but he was still looking to earn more. This is what led him to the world of franchising, and ultimately, Footprints Floors home improvement franchise.

His Reaction to Footprints Floors

After being introduced to our home services franchise, Bob knew he was ready to join our family before he ever joined us in person for Approval Day. He was immediately intrigued by the ability it would grant him to work with subcontractors instead of employees and was pleasantly surprised by the lead generation assistance provided. While his initial concern was in getting enough opportunities to be truly successful, he was quickly relieved to hear that the entire marketing team and in-house call center would assist with lead generation, allowing him to focus more on the day-to-day aspects of the home flooring business.

Bob’s vision for his Footprints Floors franchise is to grow and expand to multiple territories over the years so he can hire a manager and sales specialist that grant him more time with his sons. Eventually, his ultimate goal is to build a lasting legacy not just for himself but his family that allows him to pass on the business he builds to his kids. When asked about the hopes and dreams Bob has for his business ownership journey, he provided insight into his motivation, saying:

“[Footprints Floors] lets me be a better father to my 3 little boys at home because I can spend more time with them, go to their sporting events, and coach them. My career goal [is] to retire early and leave behind something for my kids. FF gives me that opportunity.

“I want to teach my boys to follow their dreams and to make their own decisions in life, and don’t let fear and doubt win over courage and ambition.”

“I struggled working at jobs where I had no power, no control, always working with someone else who made all the decisions. It’s hard for me to perform at my best in that environment. I’m at my best when I work alone, schedule my day with customers, and have control of my time. Another important aspect of me being a successful entrepreneur is my competitiveness, which motivates me to enjoy what I do and strive to be the best.”

If you’re ready to follow in Robert’s “footprints” and join the growing wave of people who are swapping their 9-5’s for complete control over their schedule and financial future, then freedom through Franchise Ownership with Footprints Floors may be the opportunity to help you get there!

Are You An Ideal Candidate for A Footprints Floors Home Services Franchise?

Ideal Footprints Floors Franchise Owner

Franchise owners don’t need to have experience or previous knowledge of the flooring business because they run the company rather than provide the flooring installation services themselves. As a result, they need to be problem solvers who can maintain organization despite various demands and duties. They must also have a heart for people and be able to offer top-notch customer service. This is a small simplified list of some of the qualities we look for in our home flooring franchisees:

• Business acumen 
• Sales & management experience
• Customer service oriented 
• Ability to multitask
• Organized, punctual, accountable  
• Multi-unit capable 
• Strong communication skills

However, keep reading for a more detailed explanation of what we look for in franchise owner candidates.

Our ideal flooring franchise owners should be highly customer-oriented. They’ll understand the importance of building solid client relationships and providing exceptional home improvement services. We want them to actively listen to customers’ needs, offer professional advice, and ensure their complete satisfaction. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills enable them to connect with customers and gain their trust.

Lastly, and most importantly, the ideal home improvement franchise owner would be committed to upholding the values of Footprints Floors, which include integrity, honesty, and professionalism. They would prioritize ethical business practices and treat their employees, customers, and suppliers respectfully.

Our Proven Home Services Business Model

Footprints Floors has established a proven franchise business model that sets it apart in the home flooring industry. This model is built on a combination of critical factors that contribute to the franchisees’ success and the company’s overall growth.

One of the key elements of our home services business model is our focus on customer satisfaction. We strongly emphasize delivering exceptional service and exceeding customer expectations. This commitment to customer-centricity has earned Footprints Floors a solid reputation for reliability and quality craftsmanship.

Another aspect of the franchise’s business model is its comprehensive training and Franchise Owner support system. We provide our franchise owners with extensive training programs that cover all aspects of running a successful flooring business. This includes technical training, business operations, marketing strategies, and ongoing support from a dedicated team of experts. They benefit from the collective knowledge and experience of the company, allowing them to hit the ground running and navigate potential challenges with confidence.

Our home improvement franchise owners utilize the power of our proven marketing strategy. Over the years, we’ve established a strong franchise brand presence through consistent messaging and high-quality workmanship. Additionally, we implement effective marketing strategies that generate leads and drive customer engagement, enabling franchisees to focus on delivering exceptional service while benefiting from a steady stream of home flooring installation customers.

Overall, Footprints Floors’ proven franchise business model combines a focus on customer satisfaction, comprehensive training and support, and a strong franchise brand presence. This model provides franchisees with the tools and resources they need to succeed in the competitive home flooring industry, making it an attractive and viable business investment opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to enter the home services market.

A Day In the Life of a Flooring Franchise Owner

Unlike a lot of our home services franchise competitors, we offer two Franchise Ownership options: owner-operator and semi-absentee. However, we only allow semi-absentee ownership off the bat if a Franchise Owner knows who their General Manager will be before starting the home flooring business and it is someone they have worked with previously.

Franchise Owner-Operators are hands-on daily in the business. Daily, they can conduct flooring installation estimates and consultations with customers while overseeing home flooring jobs that are in process. They can also spend their days collecting contracts, deposits, and final payments, managing general bookkeeping and administration tasks. But maybe the single most important part of an owner-operator role is creating and maintaining business relationships with subcontractors.

Our Semi-Absentee Franchise Owners will put a strong General Manager in place. While concerning themselves with other ventures, they will need to tackle a few tasks like overseeing the general manager, managing payroll and other high-level admin tasks, and scaling the home improvement business.

We Love Our Families & Communities

Footprints Floors is not just a home flooring company; it is a community and family-oriented business that places great importance on building strong relationships and positively impacting the communities we serve. There are several reasons why we stand out as a community-focused and faith-based franchise.

Home Services franchise owners are encouraged to become actively involved in their communities, forging partnerships with local organizations and participating in community events. This approach allows the franchise brand to contribute to the growth and well-being of their neighborhoods, fostering a sense of belonging and community pride.

We operate as a family-oriented business, both within our corporate culture and in the interactions with our customers. Franchise Owners and employees are treated like valued members of the Footprints Floors family, fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment. This positive culture translates into exceptional customer experiences, as customers feel welcomed, respected, and well taken care of throughout their home flooring installation journey.

Ready to Become One of Us?

Footprints Floors Home Services Franchise goes above and beyond to foster a sense of community and family—it’s time for you to join. You’ll be able to set yourself professionally and financially free, while creating more valuable time to spend with your loved ones.

Footprints Floors Hosts the 2023 Cultivate Convention in Chandler, Arizona!

“It’s absolutely crucial that we gather,” explained Bryan Park, CEO of Footprints Floors. “It’s a big part of who we are and what we do. With franchise owners scattered all around the country, getting together once a year helps us to instill our culture, pass along information and remind franchisees that there is an entire network of people working toward a common goal.

As highlighted in a wonderful article in 1851 Franchise by contributor Morgan Wood, the event was a smashing success. Speaking on mental health, former Rescue Renovation anchor Kayleen McCabe opened the convention. Following her remarks, Park welcomed the home improvement franchise owners to the occasion and praised the congruent learning and networking that will take place during the convention.

Wood went on to explain that for the remainder of the week, franchise owners took part in 20 classroom breakout sessions, six product demonstrations, and an expo with about 30 home services corporate partners and vendors from Footprints Floors. Footprints Floors honored its flooring franchise partners with awards and unveiled the individuals who would make up its new Franchise Advisory Council as the week came to a close.

Also noteworthy was the founding of the initial Footprints Floors Franchise Advisory Council. The council comprises five flooring franchise owners who will speak for the whole network of owners for the franchise brand when it collaborates with our corporate team to create new ideas and bring about brand modifications.

The company is seeking to sustain the trend of growth it attained in 2022 and lean into even more strategic relationships as we enter our tenth year of franchising!

Franchise owners often prioritize their families because owning a home improvement franchise can be a demanding and time-consuming endeavor. However, many franchise systems recognize the importance of family support and strive to create a community where franchise owners can come together to share their experiences, support each other, and learn from one another. That’s why this conference was so important to us and we can’t wait for next year!

Starting Your Own Business or Investing in a Franchise Brand

If you’re seeking to launch a business, one of the decisions and self-examinations you must make is whether you want to launch a franchise or start an independent business. The benefits of franchising are numerous!

The franchisee is the party that purchases the brand rights from the franchisor on behalf of a third party (the brand owner). In addition to ongoing franchise fees for marketing, royalties, and other costs, the franchisee pays the franchisor an upfront fee for the right to use their brand’s trademark.

Picking the Right Franchise Brand for You

If you choose to invest in the wrong franchise brand things can go wrong fast. However, if you take your time, do your due diligence, and find a company whose values align with your own, your path to success will be set.

One of the significant benefits of franchising over starting your own business is that the franchise business is creating a name for itself on a local or national level, which should be valuable to the target market you’re attempting to reach.

Any reputable franchise corporation has created a business system that functions well and delivers positive outcomes. Even better, they must disclose significant amounts of information in their mandatory disclosures so you can research the facts and confirm the findings with current franchisees before making your final decision.

The franchisee may acquire a largely turnkey operation, depending on the conditions of the franchise agreement and the company’s structure. They can have everything they need to complete the work, including an established brand, tools, materials, and a marketing strategy.

Also, a reputable franchise organization will have training programs that will educate you on how to operate the business effectively. Also, they have to have the available resources to help you deal with any issues that may arise as you manage your firm.

While some other franchisees might not offer everything, all franchises offer the franchisor’s expertise. The franchisee gets access to a vast pool of business advice to help them navigate the process of starting and running a firm, whether that information is contained in a searchable, digital knowledge base or just a phone number to contact the franchisor directly. Running a successful business with this information is much simpler than establishing one from zero.

Footprints Floors Home Services Franchise
Has Another New Family Member!

“You are your own boss, and you get to decide what you do each day at Footprints Floors Franchising” – Bryan Park

We at Footprints Floors home services franchise are a cut above the competition and are not your typical flooring company; we’re a cutting-edge, reasonably priced business that uses a distinctive franchise business strategy to stay one step ahead of the competition in the flooring sector.

And because of our faith-based success, we’ve grown tremendously over the years, gaining many trusted and successful new Franchise Owners along the way. One of our most recent is Joseph Kane from Provo, Utah! We sat down for a fun and informative chat with Joseph to learn about how he found himself investing in a superb home flooring business!

Footprints Floors: What industries have you worked in prior to discovering Footprints Floors?

Joseph Kane: My background is essentially in sales for software companies, so SaaS. And then before that, I was an assigned language interpreter for four years, which brings you into many different environments.

FF: How did you first hear about Footprints Floors flooring franchise?

JK: Through a broker. I was requesting information on a different business opportunity and then he brought this one up and so I dove in deeper, and now here we are.

FF: Were you looking at construction franchises, or did you know what you wanted to do there?

JK: Originally, I was not even looking for a franchise business opportunity. Then we talked about the pros and cons of working with franchises, and he brought up a couple. One of them was a restoration company, one of them was a flooring company. Once we zeroed in on the flooring business it just made sense. It was a good fit based on my sales background and skill set.

FF: Awesome! What did you like about their franchise business model?

JK: Their home improvement business model was already in line with my strengths and preferences. With a sales background, on the one hand, I’m going to be doing estimates and working with customers while helping capture the customers’ vision. So I get to be on that side of things, which is similar to my experience. Also, being on the side of production and helping make sure that these jobs come to fruition now that the vision has been realized and there’s a tangible piece to it. So that’s the role that I will fill.

On top of that, the faith-based organization seems to be focused on people first. They genuinely want to make a difference in customers’ lives. If you do what’s right for the customer, and you have that mentality and focus on taking care of the customer, then everything else will work itself out.

They’re also focused on us as Franchise Owners too. Helping each of us be successful and caring about us.

FF: Was there anything about the franchise business model at first that intimidated you? Anything that made you question whether or not this was the path you wanted to take?

JK: The crew side of things is the biggest unknown and biggest question mark. Another factor for me is that this is my first transition from being a W-2 employee to a business owner and not having a paycheck and a salary and all that. And so there are also some nerves around that, and I’ve had to work through all of that.

Honestly, Footprints flooring franchise is awesome and there are no red flags.

FF: With those concerns in mind, was there anyone during the process that helped you feel more at ease with those issues?

JK: Brian was extremely helpful the whole time. He did a really good job helping me understand that everything is going to be okay. And showing how they’ve done this successfully across the country. 80 or 90 franchise owners and they’ve been able to figure things out. I’ve had the chance to get to know 20 or 25 franchise owners and they all had the same concerns as me, but things turned out good and they reassured me that with dedication I’ll be good too.

FF: Do you have a favorite part of Discovery Day?

JK: Meeting the entire Footprints Floors Franchise team!

FF: What sets Footprints apart from other franchise business opportunities in the home services or flooring industry?

JK: I didn’t look at other flooring companies, but I did look at some other home improvement companies and Footprints checked ALL the boxes. They put the Franchise Owners first.

FF: What makes you most excited about owning your own Footprints Floors flooring business?

JK: The ability to have more freedom and opportunity to be a part of my family’s life more.

We can’t thank Joseph enough for taking the time to sit with us and discuss his story. And we couldn’t be more excited for him!

If Joseph’s journey inspires you and you want to change your life and community, let’s talk about Footprints Floors franchise opportunities in your area.
