Business Franchise Australia

George Beddoes, Owner – MyHome Black Rock

“I’m really proud of the business I’m building – the maths really stacks up; I’m well on my way to achieving my goal of running a multi-million-dollar business.”

 

“I wish I’d done this years ago!”

 

After 20 years working in some of Australia’s largest corporations across the tech, finance, and advertising sectors, helping those companies (as well as countless team members and customers!) achieve their goals, George was ready to pursue some goals of his own.

 

“I’ve always had a desire and intention to build and lead my own business – I’m drawn to owning my own destiny, determining priorities and implementing plans, and all my previous experience gave me the evidence and confidence that I had the right attributes to succeed as a business owner.”

 

While exploring a number of different business and franchise opportunities, George saw an article about MyHome, which prompted him into deeper discovery about the MyHome opportunity and business model, the home services segment, and the local market. But it was when he read MyHome’s online reviews and ratings that his interest was well and truly piqued!

 

Success is in the System

What most impressed George was MyHome’s systematic approach to EVERYTHING – the services delivered, recruitment, training and coaching of team members, marketing and lead management, and MyHome’s MyOPTM app for managing the whole business.

 

“I’m really passionate about systems and processes that are scalable and sustainable, and it was clear that MyHome had not only built a successful business, but had built all the frameworks to help franchise partners replicate that success. The MyOPTM app in particular makes it really easy to manage my business, from scheduling and team management, to tracking my KPIs.”

 

Predictable money-making machine

 

But it wasn’t just the systems that drew George in.

 

“The maths really stacked up. With the business model being based on reoccurring revenue it’s quite predictable, and because MyHome delivers a quality product, not only are win rates high but so is customer retention. Plus it’s a low-cost entry business, with no need to secure expensive premises or equipment, so it’s a business where I can predictably scale the team as the customer base increased, rather than having staff expenses and fixed overheads disproportionate to revenue. And it’s all supported with a solid evidence-based business plan informed by the success of other franchisees already in the MyHome family.”

 

Unrivalled Support

 

The systems are only part of the winning formula – George gives a lot of credit for his success to the high level of support MyHome offer their franchisees.

 

“The team at MyHome’s head office are fantastic both individually and collectively – they’ve all got incredibly valuable experience, buckets of optimism, and practical guidance and solutions for every scenario.  And the support team there handle marketing, deal with calls and schedule appointments with new customers for me, which frees me up to focus on building relationships.”

 

A Business to be Proud of

 

Thanks to MyHome’s tried and tested systematic approach and the support he received, George was able to get his business off to a flying start and has seen incredible growth in a short period of time.

 

“I’m really proud of the business I’m building – I’m already well on my way to achieving my goal of running a multi-million-dollar business.”

 

But it’s not just knowing that he’s building a valuable asset for himself and his family. George takes great pleasure in knowing that the service he and his teams provide is truly valued by his customers.

 

“It’s intrinsically rewarding to receive texts or calls from customers thanking my team for their work, and referring their neighbours, friends and family to us as well. Living in the territory, I really enjoy developing relationships with people in my community and it’s always a joy to hear how my customers are enjoying the extra leisure time using our services gives them. It’s totally different to what I’d previously experienced working in the corporate world.”

 

A successful business AND a great work life balance

 

A typical day for George starts with a quick meeting with his teams in a local café to run through the schedule for the day ahead. Once his teams are on their way, George performs quality checks and meets with new customers. In between visits, he can get on to any admin and check in with head office for insights and ideas. He loves that thanks to the digital systems like the MyHome MyOPTM app he can work from anywhere between visiting customers, often working in a café, in a park, or by the beach!

 

But better still, by having a business that operates close to his home, he’s enjoying being able to be more accessible to family and friends.

 

“It’s feels really good to be in a position to show up for people rather than heading into the city everyday or stuck in planes, hotels and offices. And because I’m closer to home, I can invest more time in my own health and wellbeing, knowing I can make gym classes, get out for a run, or coach sports.”

 

 

“I wish I’d done this years ago!!”

 

So to anyone dreaming of their own business like George?

 

“So many people who have successful careers but crave to own their own businesses, either don’t know where to start or they’re worried about having the right resources or support.  MyHome really does provide a fantastic foundation and ongoing support which gave me confidence to change my career path, and my way of living. I wish I’d done this years ago!!”
