“We’re an organization that prides itself on having an extensive support network for our franchisees and celebrating five percent same-store sales growth in 2011,” said Mr. Handyman President Alex Roberts. “The accelerated launch program and cash infusion option is one way to show our newest franchisees that we’re willing to do whatever it takes to help our owners with proven marketing and operations programs.”

Mr. Handyman will invest up to $20,000 of the initial franchise fees collected for a new home repair business during the first 12 months of operation. The investment will be spent on business-building activities and will be designated for programs at the discretion of the franchisor. These funds are designed to provide supplemental working capital for the franchisees’ business and will be invested in addition to the normal working capital required. To participate, any new owner must meet certain criteria set out by Mr. Handyman in advance.

Mr. Handyman is part of a network of independently owned and operated franchises with 230 units in North America that provide commercial and residential property maintenance and repair services. Founded in March 2000, Mr. Handyman is a member of Service Brands International, a group of service companies that provide a variety of time-saving services ideally suited for today’s active consumer.
