FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITIES

At Merit Professional Coatings we know that success is not an accident. Success begins with a dream and having the fortitude to pursue that dream. That is how we started.

The commercial painting industry has a high failure rate for startup companies. They lack business acumen because they have never been trained properly. While many are good craftsmen they don’t employ the necessary systems and management tools. The candidates we are seeking understand their importance and the value of a systematic approach to earning business. We have listed some questions that will let each of us know if we have a possible fit and should begin a conversation:

1. Do you have experience in the painting and/or construction industry?
2. Can you read plans or schematic drawings?  If not, do you have the capital to hire a professional estimator?
3. Are you willing to follow clear and concise instructions that will lead to success when employed properly?
4. Do you have sufficient start up capital or a 401K Plan you can borrow against?

If you answered yes to the above questions, we encourage you to Contact Us to begin the process of determining if this is a mutually beneficial fit. It is a tedious process. That is by design as successful candidates become an extension of Merit Professional Coatings and all that we represent. Click here to get the ball rolling.

If you are willing to work hard and follow our proven systems, you can succeed in the commercial painting and waterproofing industry. What are some of the benefits of joining the Merit family?

1. Tremendous earning potential when you follow our proven philosophy and systems.
2. Preferred pricing and service, from some of the largest paint manufacturers in the world, making your estimates that much more competitive.
3. Accurate estimates using cutting edge estimating software as well as accurate labor production rates that have stood the test of time. While some others guess what a project is worth you will know.
4. Established relationships with some of the finest General Contractors in the United States. Having difficulty getting your foot in the door with a GC, in Atlanta, for example? Contact us and let us put you in touch with someone who can get you through to the right person.
5. A tried and true road to success. We have been where you are going! Let us help you avoid the stumbling blocks along the way.

See if owning a Merit Professional Coatings franchise is right for you by taking our quick and easy quiz.

• The key to running a profitable and high-quality painting project is knowing where you stand relative to a pre-established budget and schedule.
• We teach you the essence of Project Management, which is knowing how much work you have completed relative to the budgeted cost of completing that work.
• Our costs for labor and material are regularly entered into our job costing system for quick and easy reference. This information enables us to accurately monitor and staff our projects. It greatly reduces the risk of unforeseen expenses or project delays and allows us to identify issues before they get out of hand.
