Being an entrepreneur takes courage. In any market, it’s important to identify potential opportunities and risks. Currently, cleaning is a $8.1 billion dollar industry in Canada which is why a residential cleaning franchise is one of the best business investments today. Leading the charge are these key factors
An Increase in Dual-Income Households
Over the past few decades, dual-income households have been on the rise. When both partners work outside of the home, they may have less time and energy to devote to household chores, which can create a need for cleaning services. As a result, hiring a cleaning service has become more mainstream.
“As dual-income households are becoming the norm, the cleaning industry has evolved to meet their needs,” says Aaron Abrams, MOLLY MAID Canada President & CEO. “Many of our Franchise Partners offer more flexible schedules, including evening and weekend appointments, so as to accommodate all of their busy clients.”
An Affluent Aging Population
The Canadian population is aging, 1 in 4 will be over 65 by 2035. More importantly, Canadian seniors are choosing to age in place rather than move into a retirement community, increasing the need for outside help. Hiring a cleaning service can help seniors maintain their independence and dignity while maintaining a clean and healthy home.
The Search for Work-Life Balance
While it may seem like an uphill battle at times, we all strive to maintain some balance between our work, family, fitness and social obligations. With only so much time in the day, people are more willing to pay for cleaning services in order to free up their time for other activities.
Why the Neighbourhood Franchise?
While the cleaning business has been thriving in large urban areas for years, it’s also growing fast in small towns across the country. In fact, some of the most successful MOLLY MAID Franchises are in smaller markets. A MOLLY MAID Neighbourhood Franchise is an opportunity to embrace these smaller markets. In fact, it’s the future of MOLLY MAID moving forward. Aside from brand recognition, referrals come far easier in a small community and with fewer job opportunities than in the bigger markets, it’s easier to build a good team that can grow as your business thrives. And the best part is you make money from day one!
Factor in over 45 years of success, a MOLLY MAID Neighbourhood Franchise is a low-risk, low-investment opportunity, meaning less courage is required! MOLLY MAID is the world’s largest Canadian-based residential cleaning company; it is a GREAT investment.
