Merit Professional Coatings - Franchise

Exceed Expectations
A Merit Franchise represents job security for those who desire to control future earnings.  Merit Professional Coatings was founded in 1994 and built on a commitment to do whatever it takes to exceed customer expectations.

Be The Best
We live in challenging economic times.  The money we earn is no longer a function of long hours and hard work. Hard work is needed just to survive.  Financial rewards seem to be limited to those who have the ability to control the factors that lead to success.  This is just one of the appealing factors of a painting franchise opportunity from Merit Professional Coatings.  The others are below:

  • Successful candidates are in business for themselves but not by themselves. They have our expertise and years of experience behind them. If they succeed we succeed.
  • They have access to some of the most respected General Contractors in the country because of the relationships we have nurtured over the years.
  • The ability to bid a $500,000.00 job with the same confidence as a $5,000.00 job. State of the art software and time tested production rates insure accurate estimates and profit.
  • The ability to get work without necessarily being the low bidder.
  • A comprehensive Operations Manual covering every aspect of the commercial painting business. Successful candidates for our painting franchise opportunity have the answers to the most difficult questions at their fingertips. They also enjoy full time support from our staff in Tampa.
  • An accurate road map identifying the numerous stumbling blocks which must be avoided. This map is updated every day as we find solutions to the new challenges being encountered in the painting and construction industry.
  • Successful candidates enjoy true job security. They are their own boss with our support behind them. They are able to succeed on their own terms while providing security for their families. They enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing they are in control.

Opportunities Await You
Merit is involved in a wide range of projects.  Our many projects include high rise condominiums and hotels, hospitals, schools, stadiums, retail malls, museums and manufacturing facilities.  All these projects are estimated, sold and completed using the same systems and procedures that we are offering you in this franchise opportunity.  And best of all, no experience in the painting industry is required.  Only a basic knowledge of the construction process.  Or the willingness to take on a “Right Hand Man” who will handle operations while you market, sell and learn the industry.

Be Profitable
Merit is an industry leader.  Most painting contractors are painters who go in to business for themselves.  Whereas we are businessmen who happen to be in the painting industry.  This business acumen is what keeps us consistently profitable.  It will enable you to do the same.  You won't get work by being the low bidder.  Ask yourself, does a company achieve 35%+ in gross profit and provide unsurpassed quality by being the low bidder?  You will be trained to get the job at your price and provide such phenomenal service that your customers never want to use anyone else.

Although we'd like to, we're not able to work with everybody.  But if you see the value in proven business systems and are willing to break the mold of the traditional painting contractor, fill out the form below and we'll be in touch.
