We launched our handyman business earlier this year and scoured the internet for resources to help us learn about the industry and the ins and outs of starting a handyman business. This book was by far the best resource we have found. It was extremely helpful with very practical tips on how to start and successfully grow a handyman business. This book is worth much more than the price, excellent resource!

Is a handyman business for you?

If you are interested in starting a handyman business or growing your existing handyman business then you have come to the right place. Handyman services are in high demand. Buying a handyman franchise maybe a good option for you. However, any franchise has both benefits and costs. You will pay a hefty price as an initial investment and ongoing franchise fees if you sign-up with a big national handyman franchiser. It is not necessary to own a handyman franchise to be successful in the growing home repair industry. more
