Achieving consistency of offering in this segment means companies must implement well-defined strategic training and business planning to ensure client needs are being met and exceeded.

The Virginia Beach, Virginia-based brand&rsquo;s franchise units are all independently owned, so customers employ dependable technicians that are trusted community members with the added benefit of being supported by a national network of technical expertise. Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s product offering, a spray that gets rid of mosquitos and other bugs for up to three weeks with a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee, has created high customer demand and repeat service that have led to consistent growth and expansion efforts since the brand began franchising in 2012.

Eventually, the brothers partnered with The Dwyer Group to leverage their successful business experience into a new franchised lawn care company.
