Choosing a Location For Your Commercial Cleaning Franchise

When setting up a commercial cleaning franchise there are many key decisions to be made.

The location of your business is one of the most critical choices, playing an important role in how your new business operates and how successful it will be in the long-term.

Here we look at some of the key factors to consider when choosing a regional base for your commercial cleaning franchise, helping your business get off to the best possible start.

Convenience

One of the key advantages of becoming self-employed is being able to improve your work/life balance, so setting up your franchise locally is always a great idea. This will allow you to build your business with clients based close to your home, making it far easier to work around other important responsibilities such as housework or childcare.

Opportunity

When choosing a base for your commercial cleaning franchise it is important to consider the opportunities available in the region. Built up areas such as industrial estates and retail parks offer plenty of chances to find new customers, so make sure to undertake some research and find out where and who your target market could be.

Transport

If it isn’t possible to establish a franchise close to your home, key considerations must be made regarding transport and commuting. Being punctual and carrying equipment are just two of the elements to think about when working farther afield, so allowing time and budget for travelling and related expenses (even investing in a vehicle) is vital.

Competition

As with all new businesses, it is important to consider the level of competition you will encounter within a chosen area. It is always best to target areas that do not have an established competitor offering a similar service, but if you do, it’s crucial to think about how your pricing and services can make you an excellent alternative for potential customers.
