Backed by a nationally recognized brand, the Sullivan brothers aim to fill a gap in the local market and create new jobs, all while building something of their own. 1851 spoke with the brothers to learn more about their backgrounds, what drew them to franchising and their plans for the future.&nbsp;1851 Franchise: Frame your personal story for us. What do you want us to know? Tom Sullivan: We’ve both worked in health care for a long time and are staying in our current careers. We’ve hired a great team to manage the day-to-day, but we’re still involved as owners and plan to stay very close to the business to make sure it’s a success. I’ve been in health care administration for about 31 years, and in our service area we saw a clear need for a professional, insured moving company. The market was ready.Frank Sullivan:&nbsp;My background is also in health care, more specifically in sales. That experience taught me how important customer service is. That’s something we’re focused on bringing to TWO MEN AND A TRUCK — building a customer-centric culture and a team that’s united around that goal.1851: What did you do before franchising, and how did you decide franchising made sense for you? Frank: We live in a rural area, and I’ve always wanted to create opportunities for our families and our community. When we came across TWO MEN AND A TRUCK and started doing our research, it became clear that their mission aligned with ours. They want to build something meaningful — and so do we.Tom:&nbsp;Owning your own business is part of the American Dream. We wanted to bring value to our own lives, but also to our customers and the broader community. We’re from Albany, and it’s always been a dream of mine to help invest back into the area and create jobs for people here.1851: What made you pick this brand? What excites you most about this company? Frank: What really sold us was the family-oriented focus of the brand. That’s at the core of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK’s story — and as two brothers going into business together, it felt like the perfect fit.Tom: We joke it should be called TWO BROTHERS AND A TRUCK in our case! The brand is also incredibly well-ranked in the franchise world. They’re consistently in the top 50 across all concepts — and that’s a reflection of how well-run the company is from top to bottom.1851: What do you hope to achieve with your business? What are your plans for growth?Tom:&nbsp;We’re planning a ribbon-cutting with the local chamber soon, and we’re excited about the long-term potential here. There’s a real opportunity for growth and job creation.We look forward to serving the communities of Valdosta, Albany, Tifton, Moultrie, and Thomasville for years to come.Frank:&nbsp;The community response has already been overwhelming — we’re getting inquiries and calls before we’ve even officially opened. Long term, we want to open a second dispatch office to expand our reach. We’re also exploring other franchise opportunities within the broader ServiceMaster system.1851: Is there anything else about your story you want us to know?Frank:&nbsp;We’re a very close-knit family, so getting to spend more time together and build something together — personally and professionally — is really special.Tom:&nbsp;We both grew up here, and our reputation means everything to us. We want people to know they can trust us to provide a high-quality service because we love this community and we’re proud to serve it.1851: What advice do you have for other people thinking about becoming franchise owners?Tom:&nbsp;There’s a lot of work involved in preparing to open a franchise, but it’s been worth it so far. The foundation you build at the start really matters.Frank: Be prepared to learn. The logistics side has been a big learning curve for me. But if you stay curious, hire people who want to grow, and talk to other franchisees to understand their journey, you’ll be in a much stronger position to succeed.For more information on franchising with TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, visit:&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/twomenandatruck">https://1851franchise.com/twomenandatruck</a>.ABOUT TWO MEN AND A TRUCK:&nbsp;Headquartered in Michigan, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK is a national, full-service franchised moving company with more than 430 locations and 3,000 trucks operating in 48 U.S. states in addition to Canada, Ireland, and the UK.
