Maid To Perfection
A franchisee is a powerful and effective process that includes the marketing, sale and distribution of products as well as services. Experience of the franchisor and the goodwill of the brand are the vital attributes of a successful franchisee. The franchisor licenses the trademarks and techniques of doing business and performs the distribution of products or services through his associated dealers.
Maid to Perfection is a cleaning service franchisor based in Hagerstown, Maryland. They began in 1980 as an unincorporated business under the name Midy Tidy, and incorporated in 1983. In 1990, Midy Tidy merged to form Maid to Perfection, and they began franchising under that name. As of May 2006 they had awarded 275 franchise units in 22 states.
Most of their serious competitors in the maid service franchise industry also began in business around 1980 and immediately set about creating, developing and selling franchises. They opted instead to spend more time in research and development, due to the profound changes in the rapidly expanding residential cleaning market.
Diversity became a necessity as they began to examine the other systems, and develop their unique mix of options for consumers. However, they had a ten year head start on them. Now, thirteen years later, they are the player to watch. The April 1999 issue of Success Magazine ranked Maid to Perfection number one for franchisee support and satisfaction. Their support remains strong to this day. Franchisor is a privately-held company with 8 employees in franchise department.
