Description

Business Description Are you physically active? Are you handy and enjoy fixing things? Do you have patience? Are you a “people-person?” This is a niche business dealing primarily with handling moving company damage claims, making furniture repairs and using other 3rd party sources to make repairs to such things as appliances, exercise equipment, art restoration and anything that gets damaged in a home or company move including damage to the home and or business property itself such as floors, walls, etc. The primary customers are moving and claims handling companies, furniture company delivery/ warranty repairs, although private furniture repairs and restoration are sometimes taken on a time-permitting bases. Services include conducting in-home inspections of items claimed as damaged by the asset-owner, in home or in shop furniture repairs, as well as arranging for other repairs with qualified 3rd parties including appliances, exercise equipment, etc. Property damage to walls, floors etc. are typically subcontracted out - if the franchisee so chooses. This franchise is also locally and nationally recognized for being the best in the industry!!!! This franchisor can legitimately boast over 50 years of transit claims experience. Their minimum standard is excellence!!!!!!!! This franchise’s business activity is primarily a direct result of moving companies, submitting actual “Damage Claim Work Orders” for damages caused by that moving company - Claims Handling. This will include claims for local, national and international moves to the Eastern NY, Southern VT and Western Massachusetts area. Payment for these services comes directly from the moving companies who have submitted these “Damage Claim Work Orders.” Original owner does zero advertising!!!!! The franchisor is the only one offering any type of advertising. Franchise owners pay a low monthly fee for advertising and a low royalty fee. The process: 1. A moving company damages furniture, equipment, collectibles, physical property, etc. they were hired to move 2. If something is damaged in this move, a claim is filed by the owner of those assets 3. These moving companies - or insurance companies - will then contact this territory franchisee to schedule an on-sight appointment (a face-to-face visit with the owner of these assets). The franchisee inspects and documents - with photographs - the claimed items. Upon completion of this inspection, an evaluation/quote for the repair(s) is sent directly - and ONLY - to the moving company - or insurance company - with the franchisee’s invoice for the fee for this assessment as well as the estimated cost for repair. The moving company - or insurance company - will then determine if they want to pay for the repairs or simply issues a check to the asset-owner to purchase replacement items. But no matter what the company decides to do with the original asset-owner, the company agrees to pay this franchisee for their inspection. Sometimes inspection and repairs are pre-authorized up to a specified dollar amount and repairs can commence right away up to the authorized amount. 4. If a repair is requested by the moving company - or insurance company - the franchisee then follows up with a report prepared on franchisor’s proprietary web-based systems 5. If agreed, that company than contracts this franchisee to authorize the repair work at the amount the franchisee quoted. Many work orders involve inspections and submittal of a report with no repairs. However, these types of “inspect only” work orders are very profitable and numerous. 6. Most repairs are provided in the asset-owner’s home or businesses There are four main sources of revenue: 1. Inspection/evaluation report production 2. Furniture and miscellaneous repair 3. Subcontractor billing for “specialist” required for items like appliances, art restoration, bicycle shops, etc. 4.
