$500 FRANCHISE
Okay, so some of you are thinking that this sounds too good to be true. In a sense it is. Obviously that $500 is a low-cost proposal designed to grab your attention. But it is just one piece of the picture. Sure, the other franchises are charging 2oK and 30K initial franchise fees and Happy Window Cleaning is only charging $500. That is true, but it is not the same as saying that all you need is $500 and there won’t be any other costs to open the business. Just as with any other franchises, there are, of course, other costs involved in starting up a Happy Window Cleaning business of your own. $500 is just the initial franchise fee as opposed to paying 20k – 30k for another franchise brand.
We do it differently, by charging you only for the work (and our true costs) that we actually put into helping you, going forward, to achieve your goals. When you win, we win, it really is that simple. It is also Biblical.
I, Scott Britton, the franchisor, in one sense, am almost gifting the millions of dollars we’ve invested to make this franchise what it is today. In another sense, I am not putting our franchise into debt nor taking on outside investors to finance expensive campaigns to reach and scale every corner of the country at once, BUT neither am I putting a franchisee in debt by imposing a hefty franchise
fee. I am building the Happy Window Cleaning Franchise
sustainably and holding onto my owner’s equity but at the same time, I am making it affordable for one who wants to start his own branch of Happy Window Cleaning. That is the difference. No more, no less.
Now that we have your attention, we urge you to seriously
consider the variables, get out a sheet of paper and a pen and
think about it. Do you own a truck or a van already? Do you have enough savings to pay your bills for several months until you get the business off the ground?
Someone is going to grab this opportunity. If Happy Window
Cleaning fits your personality and skill set, so why not have it be you? Remember, every area code gets just one owner. Maybe you already own a small cleaning company but aren’t getting the traction you would like. The Happy Window Cleaning business opportunity is structured to be as affordable as possible for you. If you truly consider what your life can become with our help, you might just be on a path to realizing your goals.
Did you know that 34 million baby boomers born between 1946 and 1964 are now retired? There are not enough window cleaners to fill peak season demand to better meet the challenge of serving seniors and other busy people.
Owning a business need not be expensive. Happy Window Cleaning LLC is disrupting the market with a one-of-a-kind franchise.
For a one-time fee of $500 and $50 a week thereafter, one can own and operate his very own Happy Window Cleaning in his area. For this small fee, one gets to operate a business with a huge following. It includes a copy of an Operations Manual, Happytude Instructional Comics for Administration, Happytude Instructional Comics for Employees, templates to our system, and consultations with franchisor and founder Scott Britton. Upgrades are available for those who want more.
One insider expressed concern that allowing a Happy Window Cleaning franchise to circulate so cheap might diminish the brand we’ve spent millions of dollars and has taken years of our lives to build.
For two very good reasons, Scott Britton, founder of Happy Window Cleaning LLC believe that the opposite is true:
-
Although Happy Window Cleaning is breaking the barrier to franchise ownership and allowing people with fewer resources to participate in the dream of franchise ownership those candidates themselves are no less resourceful.
-
Happy Window Cleaning franchises are awarded, not sold. It is not enough that franchisees have the money to afford it. Scott Britton is looking for solid people he can teach to build a larger net worth wherever they may be starting at.
People in our industry who legitimately offer franchise models have done more than throw together a business concept. They have learned the trade from decades of experience, trials, errors, and continuous improvements. Every system like that is a $25,000 - $30,000 franchise fee. Scott Britton believes that Happy Window Cleaning is going to expand the entire industry by making it more affordable for those who really want to work and make it work!
A legitimate franchise can back up it's claims with pictures and financials - all of which Scott Britton can show you given his 25 years of experience in the industry.
The Happy Window Cleaning business model offers transparency in all that it does and is committed to stewarding resources for the glory of God, and for sake of our people and the community.
The Benefits of Franchising with Happy Window Cleaning:
1
The power of the existing brand – This is the most important advantage of franchising with Happy Window Cleaning. The window cleaning industry has been around since the industrial revolution and the mass manufacturing of glass. Today, homes are built larger than ever and the people born between 1946 and 1964 (baby boomers) are entering retirement in droves. At their ages, they no longer feel safe climbing ladders and would rather spend their free time doing other things. In 2010 and in Las Vegas, at a time when unemployment in that city was 16%, Scott Britton proved for the first time that the window cleaning industry can survive even at a time of a financial crunch. We have been through the housing crisis of the Great Recession and now a pandemic and we're still going strong! Happy Window Cleaning has been tried and tested and currently enjoys immense popularity wherever we go. People respond to our registered trademark on top of the positive vibe that our company name exudes. Happy Window Cleaning is a household name in the Grand Rapids Metropolitan area and we have the right stuff to make Happy Window Cleaning a household name in the territory you choose as well. Familiarity can help you develop a customer base because potential patrons have a pre-existing knowledge of what to expect from that brand. As a franchisee, you will use the logo, brand name, van graphics, brochures, flyers, and trademark of Happy Window Cleaning.

Advertising programs - We perform marketing research which leads to better targeting and more effective ads. Happy Window Cleaning has a slew of advertising programs that are proven to be effective in lowering customer acquisition costs and increasing the lifetime value of your customers.

Happy Window Cleaning has highly effective social media ads, road signs, posters, postcards, and a jingle, among others, to market the service to prospective customers from day one. What is more, we help you to make the phone ring and get your business up and running. Although you own your own business you aren't in it all alone.

Capital - The franchise model of Happy Window Cleaning is like no other. Given that many are losing their jobs and source of income, we want to give more than just a ray of hope to those looking for a stable and livable income. Our franchise fees are very reasonable, more flexible, and like no other company offering a franchise. Together we are able to reach more people far and wide, and in the same breath, we provide you with an opportunity to sustain your needs and possibly earn more. It is because this model allows you the option of expansion plans without equity cost or excessive debt risk. That is because we guide you to achieve sustainable growth from the revenues you make at operating your business. In other words, we teach you to live within your means and make prudent financial decisions. When your debt to income ratio is good, when you achieve financial sufficiency and profitability, the obstacles to getting financing for greater growth are lessened.

Experience - Compared to an individual who starts his business from the ground and is new in his field with no actual experience, a franchisee benefits from decades of collective experience. We have already done the work of developing and establishing a viable business system. We have made many mistakes along the way and learned a great deal from them so that you have the benefit of wisdom from the start. Rookie mistakes will likely have already been ironed out. Over the years, we have developed marketing strategies, documented procedures, and advanced training options. When you are not distracted having to work on your business you can get right to work at your business!
5
Support - As a franchisee, you will have unrestricted access to technical support and qualified staff who can give solid advice. Your success is our success!
6
Training - Our franchise model offers the most advanced and the best training in the industry to the new owner and staff members so that you can handle all the operations efficiently even before you open your business. Every business goes through stages, and the practices need to change as you grow. This is where having people who have already done it really helps you to lessen the stress and allows you to be most proficient in your work. The key to success is working to live and not living to work! The Happy Window Cleaning training is designed for the self-paced and for the self-starter. Our training is simple and easy to learn. It includes management skill-building, systems training, key performance indicators, and marketing secrets along with help in the effective use of technology; customer relations software, training in accounting procedures, cash handling, time management, and even instructions in transaction managing. We also offer ongoing training opportunities so franchisees can benefit from new developments in the franchise industry.
7
Motivated Management - You are more than just an owner/manager. You are a leader who provides jobs that when coupled with the right training and tools are actually very enjoyable. The settings that our window cleaners work in are unique from day to day and the labor is not back-breaking like many service jobs. With Happy Window Cleaning, you will become a leader, managing your own business, and paving your own future!
8
Reputation - When you open a Happy Window Cleaning franchise you already have a protected layer in place just like a pea in its pod. A franchisee has an existing system and dedicated people ready to assist you to maintain the reputation of its brand value. You are undertaking to manage an already established business whose credibility is not in question. The success of the parent company uplifts all the franchise equally and gives them the necessary boost to move forward.
9
Buying Power - The franchise model benefits by conducting business under a single banner. Its buying power is awesome compared to other business entities. Franchise systems can offer purchasing efficiencies through economies of scale. Some or all of the needed products will be offered by either the franchisor or trusted suppliers. Franchisees can often take advantage of bulk discounts as well.
10
Guaranteed Territory - Happy Window Cleaning understands where a window cleaning business can be after your first, second, and perhaps even more, after a number of years in the business! We help you set concrete goals and provide guidelines to achieve the growth you desire. We give you the targets for you to hit. It is very difficult to find a destination without inputting one into the GPS. Happy Window Cleaning has the people and experience to, in a sense, be your GPS. Our team and franchise system are already in place to expand into new areas first in Michigan and later on, nationally.
Happy Window Cleaning seeks people of good character and standing within their communities. As a Christian Company, we are NOT looking for people who are sinless. We know that the absence of a "rap sheet" doesn't make anyone a "good person". There is only one person who is truly good, and that is our Lord Jesus. The rest of humanity is either covered in His grace, by His blood or else out there living on your own, apart from the body of Christ. However, adopting you into our franchise family is not like hiring an employee. There is a greater covenant between the Franchisor and the Franchisee than there is between an employer and an employee. A standard franchise agreement is for ten years and is renewable in perpetuity!
For us to make that kind of commitment to you, we need some assurance that you are a person of good repute. We require two written references from non-family members. A letter from your mom and or your wife will not be acceptable. The references must indicate that you are known to be kind, honest, and trustworthy. These written references must be submitted to Scott Britton along with a short response from you about what you have learned about yourself from the Anxiety and EQ Article {forwarded to you along with the FDD (franchise disclosure document)}. Also, be prepared to answer any questions verbally about the same. Keep in mind that whether a Franchise cost $30,000, or $500, it is not "sold", they are "awarded" to people who are believed to be responsible and capable of properly caring for and looking after the interests of the brand. Happy Window Cleaning is no different in this respect.
