Master Franchise

Hey fellow entrepreneurs! Are you looking to expand your franchise business and take it to the next level? Or are you looking to get into franchising for the first time in a big way? You should consider becoming a master franchisee. It’s like being a boss of bosses!

Here’s the deal: a master franchisee takes on the role of a franchisor within a designated territory. You’ll be responsible for recruiting, training, and supporting single-unit franchisees, and overseeing their operations. It’s a bigger enterprise, which means bigger growth opportunities for you.

Everyone prefers to work in a clean building. Be the answer to the cleanliness issue faced by so many commercial buildings throughout the United States by owning a commercial cleaning franchise. With Stratus Building Solutions, we offer janitorial franchise opportunities to help you become your own boss, while also providing distinctive commercial cleaning services.

A Master Franchise serves as the regional sales and support office that oversees its own sub-franchisees of a brand. Master Franchises represent the company in regional territories and operate as a localized franchisor. 

How Does A Master Franchise Work?

The pandemic is causing people from many different backgrounds to consider a change in career. As businesses restructure for the new normal and large companies lay people off, entrepreneurship is looking more attractive than ever.
Stratus Building Solutions offers you a chance to take the leap to being your own boss, with the backing of a proven system that works. 
Here are seven reasons you should consider a Master Franchise opportunity today.

Ever since Stratus Building Solutions was founded in 2006, we have strongly believed that owning a master franchise in the commercial cleaning industry, such as with Stratus Building Solutions, was an excellent investment. We have always felt that everyone at Stratus was doing something truly worthwhile by supporting small business owners in our local towns and cities who provide essential services to businesses of all sizes.

We feel more strongly about that than ever.

Step One. Sometimes, if you’re going to get a fresh start, it helps to clean. You know, before you do anything, it’s nice to be in surroundings that are as clutter- and as germ-free as possible. For most people, getting a fresh start by cleaning means clearing off the clutter on their desk or maybe scrubbing down the bathrooms and kitchen and organizing the silverware drawer — and hoping everything stays looking spotless for at least a few weeks. But for Jennifer Poulos’ fresh start, she went in a different direction.

She bought her own cleaning business.

Everybody is always looking for an edge. How do you earn more money? How do you become more successful? How do you achieve that elusive work-life balance?

You’d do well to ask Ralph Sizemore.

It’s scary running your own business, but there’s something romantic about it, too. The late nights. The rush of adrenaline as you race the clock to nail down a deal and keep the cash flowing. Wondering if you’re going to be a big success or someday be full of regrets.

Thomas’ wife Emily is Chief Financial Officer, daughter Sydney serves as a utility player, filling any and all voids as needed.
