Franchisee Advantages from a National Leader

Our comprehensive, ongoing maid franchise support programme is a key benefit of Merry Maids franchise ownership. It is a quality of service that only a home cleaning business leader with more than 25 years of experience can provide.

Home Office and Local Support

Merry Maids franchise owners benefit from the experience and expertise of the Head Office personnel, who are available by phone, e-mail and office visits. This support is enhanced through the Merry Maids mentoring programme - through which established Merry Maids franchise owners in neighboring territories are selected to monitor and support new franchisees.

Protected Territories

Our Protected Territory system ensures cooperation among all Merry Maids franchise owners. The number of potential customers in a territory determines its size. A detailed market study is completed on a proposed new territory and the results are shared with you.

Marketing and Advertising Programmes

Merry Maids enjoys the highest brand name awareness in the home cleaning business; marketing, advertising and public relations programmes are designed to produce the maximum return. Initial efforts focus on neighborhood promotional activities. As the customer base expands, broader support programmes are implemented to further enhance awareness and sales. These programmes have been tested to provide our franchise owners with cost-effective advice and direction.

• We make it easier than ever for your customers to find the Merry Maids franchise closest to home through our website merrymaids.co.uk
• You also benefit from our national public relations activities and tie-in incentive programmes. These generate increased brand awareness and home cleaning business for our franchise owners.

Ongoing Support

No one in the home cleaning business offers the variety and scope of ongoing assistance and support you receive from Merry Maids. As a Merry Maids franchise owner, you have the opportunity to learn and share through these company-sponsored venues:

• Intranet website
• Semi-annual regional meetings
• Specialised field seminars
• Advanced Performance training seminars
• Newsletters

Merry Maids Intranet

The willingness of Merry Maids franchise owners to share their experiences contributes to the value of all programmes. This is facilitated by a proprietary intranet where franchise owners can interact with the Head Office directly and with other franchise owners around the country.
