    FAQ

    • Why buy a franchise over starting a business from scratch?

      When you buy a franchise you are buying a readymade business format that someone else has researched and developed for you. It’s like buying someone else’s bright idea – one that someone else has already proved does actually work!

      The time and cost of setting up a new business from scratch is huge and often underestimated. While you may be a fantastic at a particular part of business, design of a brand, creating a website, creating stationery, setting up email and social media accounts, advertising, creating systems, managing customers, compliance with legislation such as Health & Safety, small business accounting, to name a few are all necessities of business. Buying a franchise provides all of these ready to go.

      It is proven that only 15% of small small businesses survive their first two years of operation, whereas franchise businesses have a 90% chance of succeeding. This is mainly due to the support and proven systems provided by the franchise group.

    • Why buy a franchise from The ProGroup?

      Because the market demand for The ProGroup range of franchise services is absolutely massive. Our tried and tested marketing materials will enable you to begin finding customers from day one and continue to bring in a steady stream of customers and work as your business thrives. Many potential customers can be identified from the street and our targeted marketing material is used to approach those customers directly, as well as media advertising, direct marketing materials, online ads, trade and market day displays and so much more.

    • Can I have multiple income streams?

      Each ProGroup franchise offers multiple income streams from the range of services offered by The ProGroup. Our specially designed business systems have been created to contain a number of services that each franchise offers that takes the worry out of seasonal work, so that you’ll have year-round sales leads and business.

    • How profitable is a franchise with The ProGroup?

      We have ensured that our proven business system and high demand service offerings provide you with great profit margins. For example, $80 - $120+ per hour rates are regularly achieved for most of the services we offer. We will expect you to be working in your franchise a minimum of 30 hrs per week but at the end of the day this will be your business and what you earn is largely up to you and your efforts.

    • Do you have what it takes?

      Of course you do! At The ProGroup we provide a comprehensive training program plus all the tools and equipment necessary to run a successful business. The work itself is very teachable with no specific, special skills required making your efforts versus volume of work very profitable. If you have an eye for detail, are quality focussed, have good DIY skills, and are a people person then we want to talk to you. The vast majority of our franchise owners have had no prior experience in the type of work they now do. They all simply have a desire to work for themselves.

    • What is your investment?

      Franchises are available between $15k and $40k. That investment includes everything you need such as, tools, training, products, sales and marketing material but does not include a van and office equipment. No experience is needed as we’ll teach you everything you need to know. As a return on your investment you’ll become your own boss, call the shots, make your own hours, spend time getting to know the people in your community, gain valuable time with family and an improvement to your work / life balance while you escape the 9-5 corporate outlook for a new lifestyle.
