With over four decades in the industry, Pestmaster, the pest control franchise backed by parent franchisor Threshold Brands, has grown to be a trusted source for pest management, rodent control, vegetation management and wildlife removal and exclusion services. With over 65 territories nationwide, Pestmaster positions its franchise owners to take advantage of government contract, residential and commercial pest control work. As it continues to grow, targeting many southern states with long hot, humid seasons, Pestmaster is looking for both investors and existing pest control professionals to join the system.

“Pestmaster is a strong pest control franchise with a system full of committed, educated pest control professionals,” said Kieran Scott, President of Growth Brands. “The franchise is a great opportunity for pest control technicians looking to branch out on their own, pest control owners looking to convert to the Pestmaster brand in search of better support and multi-territory investors who are interested in launching quickly and supporting a larger team in order to operate in a larger geographic area.”

What Traits Lend Themselves To Succeeding in a Pestmaster Franchise?

The Pestmaster business model positions franchise owners well to establish strong relationships and secure repeat business or even expand with the help of referrals. Regardless of their professional backgrounds, Pestmaster owners need to recognize the value of high-quality customer service and place honesty, integrity and great work at the forefront of their efforts.

Because Pestmaster offers a range of services, ownership also requires a willingness to problem solve and work in dynamic environments. These traits are most commonly found in a few different kinds of people.

The Investor is often a multi-territory owner who is not working directly in the business but rather spends their time working on business development efforts. By hiring the right people to serve as the boots on the ground, the owner is able to ensure quality customer service from a higher level, increasing revenues, possibly expanding the business and generating wealth for their family.

The “One Man in a Van” candidate comes from a pest control background. With previous experience working in the field, this person is able to own their own Pestmaster franchise and has the necessary skill and experience to operate the business. This investor, at times, will team up with another colleague to launch a business partnership. This lowers the initial investment required for each owner and boosts their internal knowledge and capabilities, making the opportunity even more accessible.

The Existing Owner is looking to convert from a private ownership model to a Pestmaster franchise. With this conversion, the owner can maintain control over the everyday operations of their business while gaining the support of an established franchisor in the business, marketing and technical realms, and expansion of clientele through government and commercial contracts.

With a relatively low initial investment range, thorough training and marketing support, an in-house contract procurement department and ongoing collaboration within a larger franchise system, Pestmaster presents a prime opportunity for individuals looking to take on their next entrepreneurial venture and build a business that allows them to control their destiny.
