About Us
Thank you for considering a Service Team Of Professionals franchise. We are very proud of the track record we've built since 1971. We began as a business consulting company. By the 1980's, our workload was full with restoration and construction companies in need of growth, organization and systems. Demand from start-up entrepreneurs led us to become a franchise in 1996.
The true test for any franchise is the happiness of their franchisees. We beg you to speak with ours. This is a very serious decision for you. We urge you to treat it as such.
Goals
Service Team Of Professionals' goal-oriented Master Business Planning system is the start of every S.T.O.P franchise. Our systems make the difference between us and other franchises. We're not going to teach you to get a lot of jobs. We're going to teach you how to build a company... getting jobs is just a slice of that challenge! We train you in management, marketing, and production. You'll get specific help as you move from one-man-army to business enterprise owner. As you grow, the challenges will change. Our integrity and dedication to you, your family and your business plan will give you what you need, without the typical restrictions that so many franchises come with. Training
1. Preparation/Up-front Training: Our Initial Training covers everything you need to kick off your new business. You'll get hands-on training on how to do the work. You will learn industry vocabulary. Most importantly, we will build your S.T.O.P Master Business Plan which lines out your goals, your budget and your marketing strategies. This is your personalized S.T.O.P blueprint that you will follow throughout the year. You will be more prepared than many of your competitors (and you just started)! Your S.T.O.P Plan will guide you, keep you in control, and create a sense of urgency that every achiever needs. Your knowledge of the immediate challenges will equip you to aggressively attack your market the day you get home.
2. An expert to call on any time of day, week, month, year, life of the business: Isn't this the reason you're buying a franchise? Unless you are already an expert, you will need (and be smart) to call on an expert from time to time. We have a saying at S.T.O.P "The best clients call the most." It's true. Our biggest, most profitable clients call us nearly every day. You will have questions about jobs, sales, marketing, negotiating, equipment, purchases, customers, products, subcontractors, employees, money, time, vehicles... The list goes on and on. These are the real things that need attention in a service company. The reason S.T.O.P is the absolute best service franchise available is our commitment to help you NEVER MAKE A BAD DECISION. Make sure the franchisor that you invest in wants to (and is able to) support you.
3. On-going Management Development Training: Running a business successfully is a talent. Business talent, to a degree, is inherited. But to a larger degree, it is learned. Similar to learning how to play the piano, practice makes perfect. So, to help you stay sharp on your "instrument," we hold three two-day S.T.O.P Executive Development Meetings each year. These meetings give us the chance and flexibility to address common challenges in technical, management and marketing. These meetings are usually held at our headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri and when you attend, we pay for your hotel and food.
Support
The first thing we will tell you after joining S.T.O.P is that "our best franchisees call us the most." We beg to support you!
The S.T.O.P. franchise system has one goal: to help you build a company; a real company; with workers, organizational structure and systems. Construction services require labor, skills, tools and the management ability to organize them all. Since 1971, we've been building restoration and construction companies all over North America. We'll give you the info, answers and direction to guide you everyday. Financial
