Miracle Method of Northwest Atlanta Franchise Starting Huge Dorm Renovation

May 4, 2016 By miraclemethod

With over 35 years’ experience in the home building industry, Mike Simmons is running a Miracle Method Surface Refinishing franchise that tackles arguably the most important rooms of the home – kitchens and bathrooms.

“I’m a second-generation builder. My dad was the old-type home builder where he taught me how to do everything. People would call my dad about building a house, and we would go and frame it, do the shingles, siding, trimmed it out,” said Simmons.

Mr. Simmons was raised in Indiana, and moved to Georgia and started out remodeling homes, then moved into building houses including a number of them in Cobb, Georgia.

Since 2012, together with his wife Kay, Mike has been the proud owner of a Miracle Method franchise in Northwest Atlanta.

Regarding searching for a business opportunity, Simmons said, “We were looking for something different, something you could grow a company in a downturn market,” adding that a former employee had introduced him to the company during the economic downturn around 2008.

Since the beginning, the Simmons’ Marietta-based franchise has done a number of jobs across the North Metro Atlanta area, spanning from Paulding to Gwinnett counties. Outside of residential work, much of their works has been has been for commercial properties, including hospitals, schools, universities and hotels.

The Simmons’ franchise employs 11 people and up to 16 during the busiest times of the year, generating over 1 million in revenues in 2015.
Mike and Kay were the recipients of the President’s Award for 2015, which is hand selected by Miracle Method President Chuck Pistor to recognize Exemplary Service and Commitment to the network.

Miracle Method of Northwest Atlanta is preparing to begin one of their biggest projects in their 4 year history – refurbishing an estimated 340 bathrooms and floors at a university campus, mostly dorm bathrooms but also other areas including a tiled foyer. They will begin the work during the school’s Spring break while the students are off campus. Any work that is not completed during Spring break will be finished during the summer.

Mike and Kay just celebrated 32 years of marriage. Working together presents its challenges, but they create a good balance with one another. Mike is a very driven entrepreneur and Kay is more focused on the numbers and she keeps them grounded.

Miracle Method Surface Refinishing is looking to add 15-20 new franchise locations throughout the US and Canada in 2016 to keep up with our record growth. For more information visit: miraclemethodfranchise.com or call John Tubiolo, VP of Franchise Sales and Development at 855-212-7337.

Due to Miracle Method’s ability to quickly and affordably update kitchens, baths, ceramic tile and more, their booth is always a great draw at the home show.

“When people stop by our booth, they are amazed at how beautiful the results are and even more amazed when they find out how much time and money it will save them,” says Goin.

Miracle Method resurfaces bathtubs, showers, countertops, ceramic tile and more. With over 30 different Natural Accents® colors to choose from, homeowners can get a high-end stone look without the high-end stone price tag.

Goin described that in addition to doing work in homes, they do work for many commercial properties as well. “We do work not only for homeowners but also at hospitals, hotels, schools, universities and for property managers. When one sees the beautiful results of our refinishing that can be done in as little as 2-3 days without the mess and hassle of replacement, it’s usually a no brainer.”

Colorado Springs Gazette: Miracle Method Plans to Add 15 New Franchisees in 2016

March 28, 2016 By miraclemethod

The refinishing industry is booming, in part due to the turnaround the housing market has seen over the last few years, and Colorado Springs-based franchise Miracle Method is coming off one of their most successful in the brand’s 35 year history. Sales across the franchise system have more than doubled since 2010, according to a recent story in the Colorado Springs Gazette. That trend should continue as the brand continues to expand, with a plan of adding 150 new locations over the next 5 years across the country, into Canada, and increasing presence in major markets.

Colorado Springs Gazette: Miracle Method Plans to Add 15 New Franchisees in 2016

“People have many franchise opportunities, and we have to compete in that world. If you look at McDonald’s, you need at least $1.5 million to get a franchise, and the margins are so thin – 5 to 6 percent – that you need 6 or 7 to be successful,” Pistor told the Colorado Springs Gazette. “When you look at our business concept, you have a low upfront cost – about $100,000 – and fast growth. We have some franchisees who are selling $2 million a year, and some of our franchises have hit $1 million in three to five years. For Miracle Method, it is determining how people can find out about us.”

The brand’s origins go back to 1979 in San Francisco when Bob Gray developed a new coating formula and launched the concept, but without the ability to keep the brand growing, Pistor took over in the mid 90’s, retooling the company through the first 5 years to be a more attractive investment for prospective franchisees and increasing the efficiency, operations, and support for existing owners. Once changes were made and processes were improved, the brand has grown steadily since the early 2000’s and Pistor believes that will continue – but with intelligent growth at the center of their expansion plans.

“I have been asked why we only have 135 franchises. I tell people that we have high standards; we want to be the Nordstrom of the refinishing business. We don’t sell franchises, we grant them,” Pistor told the Gazette. “For example, we don’t allow our franchises to hire subcontractors because we want to maintain the quality and protect our trade secrets. Our niche is in the bath(room) and kitchen. We specialize, we are very good at it and we are profitable. Anywhere where it is cheaper to refinish than replace is a place where Miracle Method can be successful.”

Miracle Method plans to add 15 new franchisees in 2016, and expand to 270 franchises in the next five years.

Miracle Method is Offering Business Opportunities in Arizona

March 28, 2016 By miraclemethod

Vision is what drives a successful business, but true success comes when it’s combined with a proven product. That’s the story behind Miracle Method.

Since 1979, Miracle Method has provided a unique niche service with proprietary technology, and it’s helped us emerge as the leader in the refinishing industry. Now, with a strong network of 137 territories throughout the United States and Canada that generate more than $50 million in annual sales, we are looking to partner with 15 new franchisees in 2016—starting in Arizona.

With one location already in Tempe and another in West Phoenix, we are currently eyeing two open markets—Phoenix and Tucson.

arizona business opportunity

With a population of 1.5 million and one million in Phoenix and Tucson respectively, John Tubiolo, Vice President of Franchise Development for Miracle Method believes these two cities have immense opportunity thanks to their sprawling, multicity metropolitan areas. In additional to thousands of residential properties, Phoenix also boasts high-end resorts due to its popular golfing community. Meanwhile, in Tucson, the University of Phoenix offers another lucrative business opportunity.

“The demand for refinishing is booming. We need more franchisees in territories like Phoenix and Tucson so we can better serve these markets and our national accounts. We think 2016 will be a big growth year for Miracle Method, and establishing a strong footprint in Arizona is a big step in continuing that momentum,” Tubiolo said.

Miracle Method’s customers include not only millions of homeowners, but also hotels, hospitals, property managers, colleges and universities, making the business very attractive to potential franchise owners. Our robust business plan gives franchisees access to corporate support and ongoing technical and administrative training opportunities. We are looking to attract owner-managers who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty, but can also scale the mobile business and focus more on development while trained technicians handle the resurfacing projects. Potential owners only need capital of, or access to, about $60,000 to $80,000 to get started, in addition to the $40,000 franchise fee. Franchisees start with two technicians and two vehicles, with the potential to grow to a multi-million dollar business.

“We are the leader in our industry and we strive to have the best systems in place for our franchisees so that they can experience success and growth in their business,” Tubiolo said. “I believe our greatest growth period is still ahead of us as more residential and commercial customers discover the benefits of refinishing.”
