New Miracle Method Franchisees Find Happiness in Business Ownership

By

After years working for others, Phil Brookover and Keith Lund were ready to make a change.

After experiencing the rollercoaster that is the electronic manufacturing industry, Phil Brookover was ready to take control of his own life. He then began his journey to find a business of his own and take control of his future. After speaking with his neighbor Keith Lund about the possibility of franchising, they decided that franchising was the perfect next move for the two. After ample research in finding the perfect franchise model, the pair decided Miracle Method was a clear winner.

Brookover explained, “When we looked at Miracle Method, we could see the potential. We were looking at another franchise at the time, but as we talked to Gwyn O’Kane, VP of Franchise Development, and learned more about the brand and how quickly profits were available in comparison to some of the others, it just made a lot more sense. Any concerns I had were answered through the pre-discovery day process. Talking with Gwyn and other franchise owners in North Carolina made it feel like Miracle Method was the perfect fit for us.”

Brookover was particularly thrilled when he learned that Miracle Method didn’t charge franchisees for their unique, proprietary bonding agent that sets the franchise apart. “The final selling point for me was the fact that Miracle Method doesn’t charge you for the bonding agent that is used for the process. Other franchises we were looking at there was a lot of these products you would have to buy from the franchise to get set up. We liked that there was no charge and they weren’t trying to get more out of us.”

Although Brookover and Lund are new franchisees, only completing their training in late April, the partners feel more than prepared to get to work and bring the benefits of Miracle Method to their community. This preparation is no accident, the franchise takes training very seriously. Franchisees and their technicians go through three weeks of training so they are ready and capable of completing any project.

The corporate team is based in Colorado Springs, CO but takes pride in their commitment to being available for franchisee to contact 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

“The corporate staff has been really great. After our three-week training, we’ve continued to receive ongoing support. We know they are just a phone call away and we have access to different people within the office who are always willing to help whenever we have questions,” shared Brookover.

Just a few weeks into working with Miracle Method full time, Lund and Brookover already have a handful of jobs under their belt and are starting to make a name for themselves in their community. When asked what Brookover was most excited about his future with the franchise, he shared that he’s excited to be a part of a franchise that enhances people’s lives.

“Being able to satisfy customers. There’s a lot of people out there with outdated or need a fresh look. It’s really exciting that we’ll be able to satisfy their needs for much less.”

Critical Questions to Ask When Reviewing Franchise Brands

By

If you’re interested in investing in a franchise, take the time to seriously evaluate each opportunity. When you take the time to ask the right questions, you are more likely to identify successful opportunities. We recommend asking each franchise you are exploring these top five determining questions.

How do you keep a focus on growth and innovation?

Reviewing Franchise Brands
Businesses who fail to maintain a high level of creativity or consistently make improvements, easily get left behind. For example, companies like Blockbuster, Borders and Kodak slowly disappeared after resisting change. When searching for the right franchise model, it’s important to learn more about the development plans of the franchise. Ask questions like, “what are your future plans for expansion?” Or, “How has your business changed as technology rapidly evolves?” Brands that stay fresh in the market are the ones who are consistently focused on innovation and continue to be more successful.

Are you able to easily adapt quickly to changes?

reviewing franchise brands

As many are aware, when dealing with any type of business environment there will be several changes that occur from unexpected forces. From organization structure to minimum wage, healthcare requirements and the overall economy, businesses are challenged. Whether it’s a large or small impact, the key to surviving good and bad economies is a proven business model.

How do you define your company’s competitive advantage?

reviewing franchise brands

Whichever franchise offering you choose to select, take a look at the competitive advantage offered. Whether its price, service, quality, location, or an existing customer base, having an advantage over your competitors will set your business apart. As always, understanding your customers is key to running a successful franchise.  When reviewing franchise brands, use great resources like 2016’s Top Franchises from Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500 list to guide you through the decision process of buying a franchise.

What is your strategy to maintain customer retention?

reviewing franchise brands

In any type of business you enter, return customers will be one of your top quality sources for leads. Successful franchises always take the necessary steps to keep customers coming back. Remember, if a franchise is not actively gathering and analyzing customer feedback, they are missing out on significant opportunities. Dedication to customer experience generates awareness and referrals, leading to even greater success!

Chuck Pistor, President of Miracle Method  says, “Obtaining direct feedback from our customers helps us to improve business operations, correct shortcomings, and deliver excellent customer service.” The Miracle Method Franchise is rapidly growing to keep up with the impressive demand for its refinishing services, combined with a proven business model, unparalleled training programs and ongoing support systems.

What type of training and support will be provided?

reviewing franchise brands

The number one question to discuss when reviewing a franchise opportunity is the type of training and support that will be provided. Startup and ongoing training programs backed by extensive franchise support are critical to launching a successful start-up. Training programs are the building blocks to learning new techniques for a more productive workforce. Ultimately, excellent franchise training and support will not only create a strong and consistent brand, but maximize revenue opportunities for the entire network. Check out the ratings and reviews of today’s top franchise opportunities as rated by actual owners.
