WHY JAMES?

 

WHAT MAKES JAMES’ HOME SERVICES THE BEST
IN PEST CONTROL FRANCHISES?

We offer the ideal combination, the “best of both worlds”. Our Franchisees enjoy the satisfaction of running their own pest control business, while knowing they have the back-up of a proven and recognised company. Your customers enjoy both the security of dealing with a large and well-known organisation, along with the local, personalised service given by you, their neighbourhood Franchisee.

 

With over 350 Franchisees throughout Australia and New Zealand, performing $20 million worth of services per year, and one of the strongest brands in the business, James’ Home Services has spent over fifteen years developing, perfecting and proving the effectiveness of their business and training systems.

 

The company (Rushlyn Pty Ltd, trading as James’ Home Services) has experienced continual growth since it was established in 1993 by Robert James, as a single business on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.

 

As the demand for home services continues to rapidly expand, and the James’ Home Services system proves to be a winner, James’ Home Services now leads the field in Australia and is ready to expand overseas.

 

COSTS AND FINANCE
All franchisees who follow our systems are profitable - it’s that simple.

 

As we cater to middle-to-upper income earners, the demand for services remains at a reasonably consistent level through times of economic growth and recession, with the only real change being that in periods of greater unemployment, there is more demand for franchises.

 

One of the major benefits of a James’ Home Services franchise over many other franchise systems is that businesses are run using a simple “trailer”, eliminating the need for costly premises rental which can undermine many small businesses. Likewise, work can be carried out during hours which suit the franchise owners, keeping staff costs to a minimum. Unlike a retail/shopfront business, James’ Home Services franchisees are able to quickly build and maintain a regular customer base rather than relying on passing trade.
