MaidPro Extends United States Veteran Discount to Prospective Franchisees
Nov 11, 2010, Boston, MA- MaidPro's veteran discount, introduced on Veteran's Day 2009 and set to expire on Veteran's Day 2010 has now been extended. MaidPro offers $3000 off the cost of the franchise fee and awards veterans with a $100 credit each month for the life of their ten year franchise agreement. The discount, valued at $15,000, will now be available to interested veterans through Veteran's Day 2011.
Chuck Lynch, Vice President of Planning and Development, says "Due to the success of our veteran owned offices and the interest garnered within this past year, we are delighted to be able to extend this offer into 2011. We want to do everything that we can to help veterans realize their dreams of owning their own business."
Ed Kennedy, MaidPro of Temecula, CA owner, is a Marine veteran. He says, "Being a small business owner in the cleaning industry, you must have a background in making tough choices and the ability to lead people confidently. I got that from my military training. Coupled with the support that the MaidPro home office gives me, I feel secure with my business and am excited to grow it and be successful."
MaidPro also provides financing, allowing veterans to start their own office with virtually zero up-front cost. If additional financing is needed, MaidPro can aid in this process as well. The discount will run from Veteran's Day 2010 to Veteran's Day 2011.
