In becoming part of the nations largest window covering franchise organization, you immediately gain access to one of our most important and valuable assets, which we refer to as TurnKey Marketing. Semi-Annual Regional Meetings To ensure that all franchisees are supported at the local and/or grass roots level, we meet regionally with our franchisees on a semi-annual basis to address any local concerns, problems or challenges that are “unique” to their specific trading areas. These meetings provide a forum for the exchange of fresh, timely information, ideas and concepts that lead to a more successful franchise. Some of the topics covered include: training, hiring, sales, marketing, new products, information systems, operations, procedures, installation, database marketing, administrative procedures, efficiency, running your business for profit, local challenges, “how to…” sessions, advertising techniques, and a variety of other issues of local interest.

By combining a small financial investment from each franchisee, we are able to produce and execute a marketing and advertising program in a much more cost effective manner than a single franchisee could on his own. All too often, when an individual starts a business, he/she does not have in place the support franchisingbusinessopportunities mechanisms he/she needs to succeed. When you buy into a franchise, especially a franchise, you receive comprehensive support services designed to ensure you are able to take advantage of every market opportunity. Over the last 12 years, we have gathered invaluable proprietary consumer data from all across the nation. Consumer data which goes far beyond the typical one or two-dimensional type databases. Proprietary consumer data that not only reflects the demographics of our most valuable customers but profiles their actual lifestyles and psychographic characteristics as well.
