About Christmas Decor

Christmas Decor offers individuals and businesses the ability to generate significant revenues during a time that is traditionally slow for many seasonal businesses. The Christmas Decor franchise opportunity provides seasonal businesses the ability to offset their fixed overhead costs and maintain their key employees all year around. They cross sell Christmas decorating services to their existing customer base, while generating new customers with the convenience of our services. The majority of our almost 400 franchisees nationally were operating a seasonal business when they came to Christmas Decor. They had no prior decorating experience, but they understood what it means to work hard to grow a successful business. Each one found that Christmas Decor was the perfect seasonal business to expand their revenues. When it comes to Christmas lighting and decorating, Christmas Decor has established itself as the brand of choice by tens of thousands of customers across the nation. We have successfully differentiated our franchise by not only creating a national brand, but by making that brand represent the highest level of service, dependability, and value. We have taken a seemingly simple concept, and through enhanced service and product deliverables, created a reputation that has fueled the growth of our franchisee system. At the core of Christmas Decor is experienced leadership, staff, and a national network of franchisees that share passion for the business.
