The typical day in the life of an owner operator is 7:30 - 5:30 Monday through Friday. We have a strong proprietary database that integrates with an accounting package. Advantages include low overhead and quick ramp-up time. |
Handyman Matters offers a great variety of products and services. Because of this variety, the franchisees can build their business on working repeatedly with a satisfied customer and their referrals. Our goal is to provide customer service that elevates Handyman Matters to the position of lifelong customer loyalty. 
Our business model is unlike a contracting business. Handyman Matters is a management, marketing, and scheduling model– no salespeople or estimators are necessary. We use cash flow accounting because payments are made at the time of service by check, cash or credit card.
Becoming a Handyman Matters franchise owner affords the luxury of being in business for yourself. Our model has been evolving since the beginning and we continue to stay ahead of the competition and address the needs of our industry. We will help you utilize past experience and skills through your earlier career to maximize the performance of this business model. One of our biggest strengths is that we have many many corporate accounts that franchisees immediately have access to like Burger King, Starbucks, Chili's, Best Buy and Radio Shack. These corporate business accounts is 50% of the revenue for most franchisees.
You don't need to be a skilled crafts person, and you don't have to know the home improvement industry. We're looking for partners to work on a business, not in one.
Things are changing and evolving in the handyman industry at an extremely rapid rate. This industry has had little qualified competition. We have been perfecting our systems, operation and technology to better address the day-to-day demands of the industry. We never stop developing and improving our system and techniques as it is a continual process.
Handyman Matters developed state-of-the-art proprietary software that systematically manages the entire company including scheduling, marketing, tracking, dispatching and accounting.
