For example, this year,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/lawndoctor/info">Lawn Doctor</a> was ranked&nbsp;<a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/franchises/directory/lawn-tree-care?type=multisearch&amp%3Bdata1=randomize%3Afalse%2Ccategory%3Alawn-tree-care&amp%3Bsort=f500&amp%3BsortMethod=global&amp%3BglobalLimit=25&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=happinest-brands-q2-2025-growth-2729846" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">first in its category</a> by&nbsp;Entrepreneur for 2025, and it is again a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/franchises/heres-who-made-the-franchise-500-hall-of-fame-in-2025/487378?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=happinest-brands-q2-2025-growth-2729846" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hall of Fame</a> award winner, maintaining its decades-long streak.&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/mosquitohunters/info">Hunters-Humbug</a> remains in the spotlight for its strong three-in-one model, a recent rebrand that multiplied revenue potential for franchisees by 15 thanks to the incorporation of pest control and professional holiday lighting services. The addition of holiday lighting and décor lines across Happinest’s system has proven to be a game changer, creating a more predictable annual revenue path and helping franchise owners attract and retain local talent. After more than three years of piloting, optimizing, and scaling this offering, Happinest has built out the systems, marketing programs, and support infrastructure to ensure holiday lighting is more than just a seasonal upsell. It is a high-impact, scalable service line that enables owners to ramp up faster and drive significant top-line growth.“Bringing on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/miguel-diaz-34a19519?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=happinest-brands-q2-2025-growth-2729846" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Miguel [Diaz]</a> as director of operations for Hunters-Humbug is also huge,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/pam-murdoch-a3745713/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=happinest-brands-q2-2025-growth-2729846" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Pam Murdoch</a>, franchise development support manager. “As someone who has 20 years of experience and both indoor and outdoor pest control knowledge, he brings a lot of valuable experience to our system. He has been pivotal to incorporating these additional services and supporting our franchisees throughout the process.”As the brand looks toward the second half of the year with plans to award 21 total Lawn Doctor units, 22 total Hunters-Humbug units, six total&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/ecomaids/info">ecomaids</a> units, and 48 total&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/sparkle-squad/info">Sparkle Squad</a> units, the team remains committed to its strategic approach and proactive coaching model to support franchisees.&nbsp;“A key word for us here at Happinest is ‘intentional.’ We don’t just do things by the seat of our pants,” Murdoch said. “Everything we’ve done has been piloted, tested, or researched. We always have the best interests of our franchisees and their customers in mind.”That thoughtful, strategic approach extends beyond franchise development and into the brand’s commitment to ongoing support. “In addition to the growth we’re experiencing here at the unit level and across the system, we’re attracting some incredibly talented support people as well,” Martin said. “We’ve enhanced our support coaching team, and we continue to dial in the approach, recruiting support teams and honing our processes proactively to ensure the entire system is positioned for success long-term.”<h3>About Happinest Brands</h3>Founded in 2018, Happinest Brands is a multi-brand franchisor specializing in both residential and commercial services, offering industry-leading franchise opportunities in lawn care, pest control, home cleaning, window cleaning and overall exterior maintenance, as well as holiday lighting.
