Hi,
I am working with Mr. Waterheater in Pittsburgh. We have been installing water heaters since 1981 and doing about 5,000 a year. We just started franchising and have 3 franchises. Great business models for existing plumbers looking to simplify and grow their business.

Sounds great! I have often thought of starting a franchise business myself.

I believe I will call it Mr. Isitonmyasswhileyoumakememoney

Welcome to the forum. I look very much forward to you showing us the ins and outs of franchising.

From the looks of your profile you are a marketing salesman. What are your plumbing credentials?

I think you should ask Songdog, he has nothing but warm, fuzzy things to say about his former franchise.
