Top 12 Reasons To Be A Kitchen Refresh Franchisee
Here are the Top 12 reasons to become a Kitchen Refresh franchisee:
12) Extremely affordable initial investment: With an initial franchise fee as little as $2,500, and no inventory to carry, Kitchen Refresh represents one of the most reasonable initial investments of the home remodeling category. The only other significant primary startup investment is the modest design studio buildout, which can have a small footprint of just 350-600 square feet.
11) Low ongoing costs: Kitchen Refresh franchisees do not pay royalties. Also, most locations do not have employees, there is no inventory, the design studio space is a minimal footprint which translates to a low lease rate, and the suggested initial advertising costs starts at just $600 per week. This means fixed costs remain extremely low.
“Kitchen Refresh has truly created the magic formula: A product that people love that also saves them money. It makes the remodel process easier for us and our clients. And a system with an attractive margin that can grow as we grow.”
10) Additional revenue opportunities: Sales from Kitchen Refresh products should only account for about 40-50% of your total annual revenue. The remaining 50-60% of income is achievable by sales from countertops, backsplash, floors and other home improvements provided by other contractor and vendor relationships you have, or from your own company if you have a co-owner relationship with a designer and an installer.
9) We manufacture our own products: Because we manufacture our own doors and drawer fronts, and related products, and provide them to our franchisees, we control the quality and also insure our franchisees aren’t paying for a middle-man markup. Many cabinet makeover franchising companies talk about their products being “factory direct” - in our case, Kitchen Refresh IS the factory!
8) It’s a proven business: Kitchen Refresh continues to expand and grow into new markets with our proven products and proven business model, and home improvement spending continues to remain strong across the nation!
7) Wide target audience: Kitchen Refresh’s primary consumers are the middle income to upper middle income households, which typically represents a large residential base. And, due to our attractive price point coupled with our beautiful results and quick process, we are also an attractive solution for both rental unit owners/managers and high income households, although both of those are generally smaller portions of an overall market because they represent a smaller percentage of the total households.
6) All orders are prepaid: One of the major factors causing new business closures is cashflow problems. With Kitchen Refresh, you collect the full Refresh project payment up front. Plus, because we’ve established the pricing parameters and recommendations, it helps bring assurances that you are starting by pricing projects correctly for profitability.
5) Quick project completions: Unlike many construction industry businesses where projects can go on for months and months, with Kitchen Refresh, transformations can be completed in as little as 5 days or less from start to finish. This allows a franchisee to have a high completion rate, finishing a higher number of projects at a strong profit margin in a shorter given time. There’s very little that destroys profit more quickly, and client relationships, too, than a large remodel project dragging out past deadlines due to all the variables involved.
4) Innovation: Kitchen Refresh continues to innovate new product and service solutions to help drive additional sales opportunities for our franchisees, as well as create products that have a long design life, as opposed to short-term trends.
3) Flexible lifestyle: Because of the by-appointment-only structure of the design studio, you’re not stuck in an office or retail setting waiting for foot traffic to meander by. Consultations are always by appointment only enabling you to use your time most efficiently to divide between estimates, project management and other duties. Need to pick the kids up after school every day? Go ahead. Want to keep every other Friday clear for a long weekend with your family during the summer? Why not. Have an elderly parent you want to spend time with every Monday afternoon? Go for it. As long as you’re meeting the service needs of your client volume and demand for your territory, we encourage building flexibility into your schedule as needed.
