Richard’s Painting is expanding into the **Myrtle Beach market** and is looking for the right owner to build and lead a locally owned painting company.

Founded in 1999, Richard’s Painting brings more than 25 years of real painting-industry experience.

Franchise owners receive:

* An established brand
* A protected territory
* Hands-on training
* Marketing guidance
* Ongoing coaching
* Access to RPX, our proprietary system for creating and managing estimates, customers and jobs

Our business model serves residential and commercial customers while operating with **trained employees rather than subcontracted painting crews.** Owners can begin as a home-based business with relatively low overhead and grow their team as sales increase.

You do not need to be a professional painter. You do need to be actively involved, comfortable working with customers, prepared to lead employees and willing to follow an established system.

This is not designed as a passive or absentee-owner investment during the startup stage.

We are looking for a dependable, properly capitalized owner who wants to build a respected local company, become involved in the Myrtle Beach community and create a long-term business for themselves and their family.

THE OWNER’S ROLE

The franchise owner is responsible for:

* Building relationships in the local community
* Meeting customers and preparing estimates
* Hiring and leading employees
* Following up with leads
* Managing schedules and customer communication
* Using the Richard’s Painting systems
* Actively marketing and growing the territory

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

The strongest Richard’s Painting owners are:

* Personally involved in their business
* Comfortable selling and building relationships
* Willing to follow an established system
* Financially prepared for startup and working capital
* Responsive, dependable and accountable
* Interested in building a long-term business—not simply creating a job for themselves
* Committed to becoming the trusted painting company in their community

* Initial hands-on and classroom training in Salisbury, North Carolina
