What’s on offer when you join Megasealed? Franchisees who join the bathroom shower and balcony repair franchise are buying into a proven successful business model with more than 25 years’ experience.

That has seen the brand grow to become a leading quality certified operator in the repair of leaking bathrooms and balconies.

Clients are home owners and commercial operators in areas such as hospitality, strata, real estate, aged care, healthcare, construction and government departments.

The business is ready for further growth, and here founder and managing director, Jacques Courtin, shares with Inside Franchise Business how the franchisor is supporting franchisees in the system.

For all Megasealed franchisees a dedicated national franchise manager provides personalsed support to ensure they have everything they need to build a thriving business, he says.

The business prides itself on fostering a supportive and collaborative franchisee community. And all franchisees are offered training sessions in each state to enhance their business skills and operations.

As an example of the commitment to franchisees, the financial controller is currently conducting one-on-one meetings with each individual franchisee. These meetings are an opportunity to discuss their reports and how their business is performing, and to offer strategies for improvement.

The marketing department also provides ongoing support to the franchisees through creative collateral development upon request. Quarterly meetings are conducted to ensure collaboration and learnings from each franchisee are shared and integrated across the Megasealed network.

As the business develops its footprint, the growth strategy is backed by a strong brand reputation through the communities it services, says Jacques.

With a readiness for expansion around the country, there’s one key area that is generating interest right now: North Queensland. Tasmania is also a target market for franchise expansion.

Check the basics:

• Expect to pay $30,000 + GST for a territory. Many franchisees purchase three to four territories.
• A franchise term is five years and there are three options to renew, each for five years.
• Megasealed is a member of the Franchise Council of Australia and the Housing Industry Assocation.
  It has attained ISO9001 quality accreditation.
• The business began trading in 1996 and has franchised since 2014.
