Set your goals

The Nationwide franchise investment is modest, operating expenses are low and your potential for success is high. Nationwide will provide you with the training you need as well as all of the systems needed to run your business. Your overhead is limited; you have no storefront and carry no inventory. You'll own two franchises in one, a mobile floor covering business and a mobile window coverings business. The floor coverings market is experiencing steady growth and is approaching a $50 billion per year industry, while the window coverings market represents a $10 billion per year industry. Our products are in high demand and these are big-ticket items. Nationwide can easily be run as a one-person business. There are financial models available that help determine the right time to expand. When business increases, bringing on an Office Manager to run the administrative tasks is your next step. This frees you up to do more networking and relationship building. Many couples in our current system run the business as a husband and wife team. This is a great way to own a business together. As a couple, you divide up the three roles that are available - administrative, sales, and marketing. In our business, administrative tasks are scheduling appointments and installs, answer-ing phones and emails, ordering products, as well as keeping the books. The sales function involves selling to customers in their home. The marketing part of the business is executing your specific marketing plan which includes local networking events as well as calling on targeted accounts to present The Nationwide Advantage.

What is it about Nationwide that is so unique to our customers? Well, ask yourself, where is the best place to shop for floor and window coverings... in a huge store under their fluorescent lights, or in the comfort of your own home or office where the product will be installed? You know the answer. The most important things you will offer customers are convenience combined with an exceptional customer experience. Currently, most people pack up the family and set aside time in their busy schedule to drive to various flooring or window coverings stores. They bring along paint, furniture, and wallpaper swatches to match the floor and window coverings they need to select. Most will bring many different samples home only to return them to the stores the next day. Nationwide takes the hassle out of purchasing floor and window coverings. We come out to the customer's home or office at a time that is convenient for them, measure the floors and windows, discuss style and color preferences, and then offer a complete selection of samples to choose from. Our customer experience is second-to-none. We receive rave reviews from satisfied clients everyday.

All of our products are purchased direct from major mills and distributors of the industry's finest floor and window coverings. In addition, our franchisees' mobile showrooms have a custom racking system that transport hundreds of styles and thousands of colors of today's most fashionable floor and window coverings.
