We’re looking for people with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, excellent management skills and a unique ability to problem-solve and multi-task. Our top-performing Franchise Owners had no prior experience and most came from white-collar backgrounds!

We offer each of our Home Improvement Franchise Owners the following types of ongoing support:

• Marketing (which is unparalleled in the industry!)
• Corporate call center
• Ongoing operational support
• Accounting and financial coaching
• Subcontractor hiring support
• Sales and retention

Our corporate team manages the following for our Flooring Franchise Owners:

• We create and manage ten specific online construction portals, such as Home Advisor, Thumbtack, and Angie’s List, that have been tested by our corporate territories
• Google AdWords is turned on and managed by our Corporate Team
• ALL social media platforms, including Facebook, Snapchat, LinkedIn, and Instagram
• Territory-specific Websites
• Lead Generation

One of the great things about our Franchise Owner support model is that you’ll never be solely responsible for generating new customer leads! But of course, our most successful Home Improvement Franchise Owners regularly put time into local marketing and finding new prospects as any business owner would.

We’ve perfected the art of lead generation, meaning Franchise Owners have customers the very first day they launch their home flooring business. Not only that, but they also have the added benefit of our corporate call center. Franchise Owners send the corporate team their availability schedule, and the call center will only schedule appointments during those times.

That’s okay – we aren’t training you on how to restore floors. Instead, we’re teaching you how to run and lead your own flooring business! Our home improvement business model utilizes subcontractors who will complete the jobs that have been assigned to you. Where you have zero experience, these guys have YEARS of it and have done thousands of jobs. There’s nothing to worry about!

We will train you on the best practices for hiring and handling a subcontracted crew. Footprints Floors home services franchise has a stellar reputation amongst customers and subcontractors. We are known for being easy to work with, paying well, and paying on time. Building a strong relationship with a subcontracted crew will prove to be beneficial for all parties involved.

On Monday and Tuesday, you’re taking estimates. Once a price is agreed upon with the customer, you collect 50 percent of the fee up-front, which will cover all construction costs.

On Wednesday and Thursday, the subcontractors will complete the flooring jobs that were agreed upon.

On Friday, with the flooring jobs complete, it’s time to collect the remaining customer payments and pay your subcontractor crews for another week of great work.

Saturday and Sunday – Nothing. You get the weekend!

Yes, Franchise Owners in the Footprints Floors system pay a monthly royalty equal to 6% of gross sales. The fee entitles you to continued use of the Footprints Floors name and trademarks, access to our operating systems, new product development, ongoing training, and support, and other benefits that come along with being a Home Services Franchise Owner within the Footprints Floors Franchise organization.

We are proud of our highly systematized training and onboarding program for new Flooring Franchise Owners. As a result, we can get our Franchise Owners up and running in just 6-8 weeks, with estimates coming in the first Monday after training ends and checks being collected at the end of that week. Having an entire, fully-formed business up and running in such a short time is virtually unheard of in the home improvement industry, but we make it happen!

To begin, home services Franchise Owners will only need 2-3 subcontractors ready to perform flooring installation jobs. A Franchise Owner will be able to run the flooring business without any office staff until a couple of years into the business when they will want to hire a Production Manager to assist with field management. Then, as the business grows, Franchise Owners will add more subcontractors and Production Managers as necessary.

Footprints Floors is positioned perfectly between a big box store and a mom-and-pop retailer. The big-box stores make their money selling products and outsource the labor, causing prices to become much higher. Mom-and-pop retailers are usually extremely busy selling and installing products, and can’t provide the professionalism customers expect. Footprints Floors fills the gap by providing installation that typically costs 20% less than a big box store while maintaining a level of professionalism that a mom-and-pop could never offer. This franchise business model is why we are seeing so much success!

No, Footprints Floors is a home-based flooring business model with no need for expensive real estate or leases.

Absolutely! For individuals with the right skill sets, we offer a discounted Franchise Fee when purchasing multiple flooring franchise territories right off the bat.

While Flooring Franchise Owners can work with both residential and commercial customers, the bread-and-butter of our business is typically residential. We typically work with middle to upper-middle-class families looking to restore or redo the current flooring in their homes.

The top two business expenses are typically labor (paying the crews) and marketing to obtain new customers.

While we do allow for semi-absentee franchise ownership, you will need to know who your General Manager will be before starting the Franchise Discovery Process. This needs to be someone you have worked with in the past. This person will become the face of your flooring installation business and you need to make sure it is someone that you trust completely.
