Your business, your way.

Why give control of your business to someone who does not know your market and your goals?

Traditional Franchising is not suited for the garage remodeling industry. Why?

  • Traditional Franchisors require a Significant Investment, often $300,000 in the first year, and a royalty fee of 6% + of gross revenue going forward.

  • Garage remodeling relies on word of mouth and a Local Presence. Traditional franchisors validate their high fees with national marketing campaigns, but how many national garage remodelers can you name?

  • Working with a traditional franchisor requires a Long-term Commitment of paying royalty fees, often for 10 years or more. Over 10 years, this can cost $600,000 or more!

Organized Garage’s Affiliate Program is designed for entrepreneurs who value flexibility and independence.

  • Our Affiliates Set the Pace. With an initial investment of $25,000 and an annual fee of $4,000, our Affiliates can scale their business as they want.

 FAQs

  • Organized Garage is for the entrepreneur who wants to minimize the risk of starting from scratch with no support. It is for the individual who values community and support and is willing to figure things out on their own in a cost-effective manner. Organized Garage is not for someone who is looking for significant hand-holding or wants to have everything dictated to them.

  • Starting your business with Organized Garage requires an initial investment to participate in the program, as well as an additional investment to launch your business.

    • For Organized Garage, the initial commitment is three years with a total cost of $33,000. An initial payment of $25,000 is due to begin the onboarding process and access the Affiliate Network; a further $4,000 is due at the beginning of years two and three. To maintain continued access to the Affiliate Network and its benefits after year three, the annual fee is $4,000.

    • The cost of starting your business includes operating costs (accounting software, email/website fees, project management tools, etc.) and marketing costs. Marketing costs are the biggest variable, but they have a direct impact on how quickly your business grows. Spending $2,000 to $4,000 per month on marketing is recommended.

    Plan on having $35,000 available when you begin working with Organized Garage. This is enough to cover the onboarding fee and an initial marketing investment until your business begins to close sales.

  • Yes, however, this is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and is only available to active businesses.

  • While we disagree with the premise that starting a garage remodeling business should cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, there are benefits to working with a traditional franchisor. Working with a traditional franchisor comes with significant support, established marketing materials, and clear standard operating procedures. For the right person, this support is worth the cost! We are happy to connect you with a franchisor if interested. However, if these costs and restrictions seem unnecessary, Organized Garage is for you.
