April 2008

Congratulations from Francorp!

Pet Butler has announced they have acquired one of their competitors, GotPoop-AZ.

"The acquisition of GotPoop-AZ pet waste cleanup customers is part of our continuing effort to build the Pet Butler brand into a household name so that when people think of dog poop, they think Pet Butler," said CEO Matt Bowswell.

Matt approached Francorp in 2004 seeking a program to franchise his simple pet pooper scooper business. Today, Pet Butler proudly bills itself as the "#1 in the #2business" with 97 franchise operations in 27 states.

Pet Butler provides professional pet waste cleanup and removal services plus pet stations and supplies to individual yards, parks, and multi-family communities across North America.

Door-To-Door Opens Seminar Doors

Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning hosted their first "Own Your Own Business" Seminar in Chicago this past month. This was the first of many seminars they plan to hold across the nation.

After viewing a demonstration performed by Francorp's CEO Don Boroian, Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning acquired the necessary tools to execute their seminar. Francorp provided a professional presentation that incorporated print advertisements, detailed visuals and the flexibility for Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning to personalize their presentation.
