Despite Recession, Enviro-Tech Pest Services Grows Through Franchising
Enviro-Tech Pest Services is expanding across America, despite the current economy. Established in 1985, the company recently began franchising and already has six locations.
"People want a safe solution to their pest problems," said Nick Petti, President of Enviro-Tech Pest Services. "They no longer want chemicals applied in their homes that can harm children, family members with health problems, pets or the environment. As a result, environmentally-friendly pest control is a high demand service."
Enviro-Tech, ranked among the top 15 percent of pest control companies nationally, is establishing a 'green standard' for pest management. The company offers residential and commercial pest control, termite treatments, nuisance wildlife control and real estate services.
"An Enviro-Tech franchise provides entrepreneurs and existing service companies with a brand and system to grow and promote their business," Petti said. "This is a ground-floor opportunity in a large, stable industry with consistent consumer demand."
Franchisees can start from home with a small investment and build a strong business based on long-term customers that send regular payments on their contracts. Since the average client spends over $450 per year, franchisees can grow their business to exciting monthly sales levels in a short period of time.
"Most franchisees begin as a one-person company and add technicians and salespeople as increased sales dictate," said Petti. "Our management team has over 38 years of industry experience, and we help franchisees every step of the way."
All franchisees get two weeks of training to learn everything necessary to open, manage and succeed in their business. This helps them get off to a strong start as they introduce the Enviro-Tech concept in their protected territory. They also receive on-going support and assistance.
"Franchisees learn how to market their business and grow their company on the pillars of quality service, customer satisfaction and environmental consciousness," Petti said. "These are the core values of our company, and following these principles produces low account turnover and glowing recommendations from clients."
It is the strong focus on environmental sustainability, profitability and customer service that gives Enviro-Tech a solid competitive advantage.
