Franchise System Ownership
When you become part of the Painter1 family, you own a piece of the franchise system overall!
They say that numbers talk, so we’d like to share with you some facts about how we manage to make Painter1 such an affordable franchise in which to invest.
Savings And Kick-Backs
- Lowest Franchise Fee - At $49,500, our franchise fee can’t be beat! This opportunity is within reach for almost any driven individual.
- Built-in Equity - Each Franchise Owner who becomes part of our family gets a share in 10% of the owner’s equity pool within the franchise system. That means that the success of each individual leads to the success of all!
- Declining Royalties - Unlike many painting companies out there, Painter1 offers a 5% royalty fee that decreases as sales increase. For the first three years, a portion of this fee pays a veteran Franchise Owner to act as your mentor until you can function more independently.
- Lowest Brand Development Fund - Typical marketing fees range between 4-10%, but ours is at an unheard of low at only 2%.
- Discounts & Rebates - Because we have networked with the largest paint supplier around, we’re able to pass along significant savings. Not only that, but 100% of paint rebates are returned to our Franchise Owners.
These unbeatable facts help explain why we’re able to keep costs so low and why our Franchise Owners come out so far ahead. In fact, on average, they see $500,000 in AUV each year which tells you something about just how profitable your own business could be. Not that there are any guarantees, but with costs as low as they are at Painter1, you’ll likely be able to see a strong ROI in no time.
We'll help you achieve success, gain your freedom, find more time and grow your financial security within your own painting franchise.

More Than Just Cost-Effective
While it’s important to us that we’re able to extend our affordable franchise opportunity to as many people as possible, we’re also invested in making sure our internal systems are working as efficiently as they can be. As one of the fastest-growing franchises in the painting industry, we’ve had 20 years to perfect our approach and our business model shows it!
Flexibility And Freedom
When you operate a Painter1 business, you won’t feel tied to your job to the point of exhaustion. It’s been proven that business owners are far more effective at what they do when they’re able to strike a healthy work/life balance. That’s why we put so much emphasis on having a manageable schedule that leaves plenty of room for other things such as family, hobbies and interests, travel and personal well-being.
No Restricted Territories
Every lead you generate you get to keep, no matter where it comes from geographically. That benefits you as well as your customer who won’t have to be referred out to another unit. It also leaves you plenty of room for growth and expansion.
No Corporate Call Center
Customer satisfaction improves dramatically when the client knows they can reach the same salesperson every time they call. This improves the quality of communication, builds healthy rapport and leaves a great overall impression.
We’re proud of the unconventional way we do business. Instead of an “Us vs. Them” mentality like you’d usually find when franchising, we’re committed to keeping you in the loop and value your input. We understand that when you invest in Painter1, you’re entrusting us to help you succeed. Our corporate team pledges to do all we can to keep that trust intact throughout every phase of ownership.
Low Risk, High Reward When You Franchise With Us
When you partner with an affordable franchise like Painter1, you’ve just set yourself up for a bright future. Even in a fluctuating economy, our flexible business model will leave you feeling secure because we know how to adapt to changing times. As one of the most common and cost-effective projects in the home improvement industry, painting jobs are more likely to be hired out than other high-dollar jobs such as flooring or kitchen and bathroom remodels during a recession. Not only has the industry itself proven resilient throughout the decades, but our franchise has also been able to weather its share of storms.
- High Chance Of Success - When you invest in an established concept with built-in brand loyalty, statistics show you have a much higher rate of success than those who go into business independently. This is due, in part, to having spent years marketing and solidifying our name and building a strong client base.
- Ongoing Support - Thanks to the training and consistent support that comes with franchising, you’re able to reap the rewards of drawing upon the expertise of seasoned business personnel.
- Collective Buying Power - You’ll be spending less overall when you can rely upon the purchasing power of a franchise. The savings that get passed on to you would be harder to come by if you were a sole proprietor.
- Impressive ROI’s - Even though it might mean spending more upfront, in the end, investors find they see higher returns in far less time than they would if they owned their own independent business.
