As Granite Garage Floors continues to grow, it is looking for ideal franchise candidates to bring its requisite professionalism to the table. The flooring franchise seeks strong leaders who are ready to roll their sleeves up and serve their communities.
As Granite Garage Floors, the emerging franchise that provides garage floor coatings for residential and commercial customers, continues to expand, it is identifying ideal franchise owners in individuals who see the true potential of the brand, are driven to succeed and enjoy leadership and mentorship roles.
“The concrete floor coatings market in the U.S. is experiencing remarkable growth,” explained Kayla Cina, president of Emerging Brands. “It is clear that our service is in high demand, and the goal that launched the company — to bring white-collar professionalism to a blue-collar industry — is still our primary focus.”
Granite Garage Floors leverages unique garage floor coating systems that, once installed, look and last like granite.
In order to support the franchise system in its growth while maintaining that white-collar customer experience, Granite Garage Floors is seeking established professionals who are interested in operating multiple territories.
Generally, college-educated professionals who are either looking for a change of pace from the corporate world, or even those who have been impacted by downsizing or layoffs, bring the skills the franchisor is searching for.
The ideal franchise owner does not necessarily have to have previous business ownership experience, but professional experience of some type is required. Though unrelated to garage floors, professional experience in industries like banking, medical device sales, consumer products and even restaurant management roles provide important context and experience that prepare the owner to work both on and in the business.
Successful Granite Garage Floors owners bring a balance of leadership skills and a willingness to take projects on themselves. While franchise owners will need to take on managerial tasks and lead their teams without hesitation, there will also be occasions where the owner will need to roll up their sleeves and work alongside the team.
Further, in order to deliver a customer experience in line with what Granite Garage Floors aims to offer, a prospective franchise owner should consider themselves a “people person.” While garages are considered a contractor “Safe Zone,” meaning the customer does not necessarily need to be home for the installation since the contractor is not technically entering the home, the owner is still conducting a major project within the client’s largest investment — their home. Being personable and excitedly taking on a commitment to serve the larger community allows the owner to stand out and indicates cultural alignment with Granite Garage Floors at a deeper level.
Prospective owners must also be well-capitalized enough to successfully launch and run the business. Granite Garage Floors requires its franchise owners to bring a minimum of $50,000 in liquid capital and have a net worth of at least $150,000. The total estimated initial investment is $169,400–$330,400, and veterans, first responders, women and other diverse applicants are eligible to receive a discount on the initial franchise fee.
