Starting A Pest Control Business Without Industry Experience

March 17, 2020PestMaster

Today’s post explains how to go about starting a pest control business in 2020 without industry experience using Pestmaster’ proven start-up and training system.

Why Starting A Pest Control Business Makes Sense In 2020

As the saying goes, if it doesn’t make dollars, it doesn’t make sense. And in 2020, starting a pest control business makes both!

But don’t take our word for it. According to new MarketWatch research, “the worldwide market for Pest Control is expected to grow at a CAGR of roughly 11.3% over the next five years.” That translates to about $27.5 billion in revenue by 2025. Simply put, if you’re looking to make a dollar, starting a pest control business makes sense.

Starting A Pest Control Business Without Experience

No experience? No problem. While Pestmaster is a popular choice for experienced owners looking to convert their existing pest control company, many of our most successful franchisees entered into the system with zero industry experience. Naturally, then, proper licensing and certification isn’t required either–we take care of everything and get your business up and running in 3 to 6 weeks flat!

Here’s what we do to make that possible:

Comprehensive training tailored to the individual. Whether you’re a seasoned pest control veteran or a total greenhorn, you’ll find something worthwhile in our custom training program. We cover everything, including sales, marketing, back-end office management, contract acquisition, and more, so you can shore up knowledge gaps or build a complete skill set from scratch.
Insider connections to experienced licensees. We assist our owners in connecting with qualified licensees as needed. You can work under the licensee until you secure your own license.
Ongoing support from a dedicated corporate team. From the day you sign the franchise agreement to the day you retire, we’ll be there to answer your questions, troubleshoot problems, coach and encourage!

What We Look For In Pest Control Business Owners

Industry experience doesn’t matter, but attitude is everything. There are some things you cannot teach–those are the characteristics we’re looking for.

These are some of the personality traits we look for in Pestmaster candidates:

Strong work ethic
Openness to instruction/”coachability”
Willingness to dive into new situations
Creative problem solving skills
Ability to connect with people

Money matters too, but less than you might think. The initial investment typically ranges between $30,000 to $85,000, making our opportunity much less cost-prohibitive than others. Additionally, we offer a number of discounts for veterans and existing business owners converting their companies to Pestmaster franchises, and financing is available for eligible individuals.

I’ve been in the industry for years and I can’t tell you just how valuable the Pestmaster franchise opportunity really is. I have much greater access to identifying and getting potent government contracts with the help and assistance from the corporate office. We would not be nearly as successful as we are today, had we not purchased a Pestmaster Franchise.

Pestmaster^® has been the best investment I’ve ever made in my life!

Barrett Alley | Pestmaster of Kingston, NY

We had options, but if we hadn’t decided on a Pestmaster franchise, we could not have gone from just one to several employees in less than one year of purchasing the franchise. Without the franchise, we would not have known about the high-dollar pest control services opportunities such as West Point Academy and we would certainly not have become the successful contract bidder that we are today.

Paul Alley | Pestmaster of Kingston, NY

I owned my own small pest control business for six years before I decided to buy a national brand franchise. The amount of business I was able to produce in those six years was doubled in just my first year with Pestmaster. Joining the Pestmaster brand was an excellent choice for me and for the future of my business.

Chris Nelson | Pestmaster of Salt Lake City, UT

I knew I was ready to start a business and looked for a long time but could not find my value-added proposition What could I do better than anyone else to distinguish me from the others in any industry? I have always been a technical person, so I was not confident in my ability to start a brand and market it. I also didn’t want to start from zero without help and support in my new adventure. For these reasons I looked into franchising opportunities and quickly found Pestmaster. They provided the value-added proposition, branding, marketing and support that I was looking for. The business model works and the people in the PFN will help you succeed.
