Converting your Electrical Business

Plug Into The Possibilities

When you first launched your business, you had an expectation of what that would look like: you’d probably be making a comfortable living for yourself and your family and have plenty of employees to handle projects and phone calls so you could take time off when you wanted to. But now you’ve worked hard your whole career, you’ve put in the time, you’ve built a business — why haven’t you been able to reach those goals?

The ever-evolving electrical industry remains a necessity-based business with ongoing consumer demand. And Mr. Electric® provides a unique opportunity for you to continue to independently own and operate your electrical service business while tapping into a wealth of resources from our national franchise system.

Is Small Business Franchise Conversion Right for You?

Entrepreneurs usually choose to open a business in an industry they’re passionate about or have experience with. The startup process can be exhilarating, but many owners aren’t prepared to deal with tasks they might be less familiar with, such as marketing, inventory, payroll, and more.

Even though opening your own electrical service business may have been incredibly fulfilling, it can be difficult to continue to build and maintain it all on your own.

Here are some challenges that many solopreneurs face:

  • Building a well-informed business plan
  • Establishing a customer base from scratch
  • Developing a recurring customer base
  • Trying to do it all (marketing, sales, business systems, and more)
  • Achieving work-life balance
  • Managing the business reputation
  • Finding and retaining good employees
  • Maintaining a strong digital presence

These struggles are some of the key reasons why many people choose the path of small business franchise conversion. An established franchisor like Mr. Electric can take the weight off your shoulders when you roll your business into this outstanding franchise opportunity.

Is your electrical services business delivering to your expectations?

These are the five outcomes of owning a business. How many is your electrical service and installation business delivering for you?

  • Generating the income to support what you want to be doing
  • Providing for a quality lifestyle
  • Creating wealth
  • Giving you equity – a valuable business
  • Eliminating all negative debt

What’s most important to you, your family and your electrical service business?

A Code of Values to Work and Live By

As part of the Neighborly® community of home service companies, Mr. Electric follows a Code of Values that each employee is encouraged to support and know by heart and with heart.

The Code of Values serves as a set of universal guidelines we strive to adhere to, from the bottom of the organization to the top. Any meeting of three or more employees of Neighborly companies begins by reciting the Code of Values.

Many companies may talk about their values. However, our franchise owners chose to live them and often share it was one of the deciding factors in joining the Mr. Electric franchise family.
