MILFORD, Ohio – House Doctors, the trusted source for handyman services, home repair and home improvement, recently celebrated significant system wide milestone achievements and set the stage for the balance of 2019 at its annual franchisee convention in Nashville, Tenn.
Themed “Opportunity Rocks!”, the convention created a space for franchisees from across the nation to reconnect and share knowledge and accomplishments from the previous 12 months. House Doctors, the brand known for its wide range of customer demographics and an array of work from small jobs to light remodeling and commercial opportunities, gave franchisees across the system the chance to exchange best practices and capitalize on business growth in the year ahead.
“This year’s convention truly ‘rocked,’ and allowed us the opportunity to learn from one another and to grow as professionals in the industry,” said Jim Hunter, president of House Doctors. “It was also a chance to recognize our franchisees who go above and beyond to promote the kind of behavior that will help us continue to expand into new regions and support our franchise development initiatives as we target several new growth markets in 2019.”
David Lupberger, owner of Remodel Force and author of “Managing the Emotional Homeowner,” was the keynote speaker and shared knowledge on how remodelers and contractors can grow longer-lasting and more profitable businesses by developing lean and mean business systems. With over 30 years of experience, Lupberger was able to provide insight on the industry and stressed the importance of having proven systems and processes in order to see consistent results.
House Doctors also hosted an awards dinner to celebrate the accomplishments of high-performing franchisees in 2018. Several owners were awarded the “2018 Sales Increase,” in addition to other special recognitions, including Tony Holt of East Alabama, who received the “See you at the Top” award; Daniel and Shenna Zurbrigg of Naples, Florida, who were presented the “212º Award,”; Matt Mozkin of Redmond, Washington, who was presented the Rookie of the Year Award and Bart Williams of Somerset, Kentucky, who took home the title of “Franchisee of the Year” for the fourth year in a row. Attendees also participated in building exercises where they competed for the chance to win the highly coveted “Golden Hammer Award.”
Several new marketing initiatives were revealed during the convention, including the announcement of digital marketing support for franchisees to drive their business at the local level from Local Search Masters. Likewise, House Doctors introduced All Points PR, a leading national public relations firm, to franchisees at the convention, with the agency slated to provide support to current franchisees and drive growth in several new markets as targeted in House Doctors’ aggressive growth initiative for 2019.
