    Own an Enviro-Tech Franchise

    The Right Opportunity

    High Demand Services:
    It is estimated that over 82% of American homes valued at over $150,000 have regular pest control service yet over 50% of homeowners express dissatisfaction with their provider.
    Consistent Need:
    Not treating pest problems is not a solution. Infestations will almost always return.
    Competitive Advantages:
    Many competitors use harsh chemicals that harm the environment and aggravate human and pet allergies. Today, a large percentage of the population seeks companies like Enviro-Tech that are environmentally conscious.
    Marketing Assistance:
    Enviro-Tech franchisees are thoroughly trained in advertising techniques to ensure a successful start-up.
    Protected Territory:
    Each unit has a clearly defined territory within which only you will be permitted to operate.
    Loyal Customers:
    Our system's success has been built on creating outstanding customer service. When customers have a problem, we respond promptly and courteously. This reduces account loss and generates referral business.
    Home Office:
    Our franchisees usually start from a home office of 120 to 300 square feet. As they grow, they often move to a small commercial office.
    Low Staff Needs:
    You only need a handful of employees to run a successful Enviro-Tech franchise. Many start solo and add technicians and salesmen only as increased sales dictate.

    Low Investment:
    Your office equipment, a late model pick-up truck, and $3,500 to $4,500 of equipment is all you need to open. Reserve cash to cover expenses until you reach break-even should be $5,000 to $10,000 depending on your expenses and your business decisions. We expect most will have invested around $40,000 before they reach break-even.
    On-Going Assistance:
    We and our network of experienced franchisees are only a phone call away to help you with any questions regarding the best way to run your Enviro-Tech Pest Services franchise.
    Corporate R&D:
