Milestone Homes Looks For NZ Nationwide Franchisees


PRESS RELEASE – FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITIES

Milestone Homes Looks For NZ Nationwide Franchisees

Milestone Homes is focussed on growing its nationwide group of franchisees and offers prospective business owners a smart, comprehensive franchise support package. Milestone Homes Business Development Manager, Dave Wilson, explains how the New Zealand psyche is one that is perfectly suited to a franchised residential building business. “New Zealanders prefer to buy local and build with a locally owned business and the Milestone franchise model gives our clients the benefits and peace of mind of a national brand whilst dealing with a local owner operator,” he says. “We like to refer to it as think national, act local.”

For those considering ownership of a residential building business, Mr Wilson says the Milestone franchise model is an excellent opportunity to be more successful than you could be as a sole operator through the national support the company offers. By offering national brand recognition, substantial marketing and media presence, a centralised support office and comprehensive systems and processes, the local franchisee is equipped with everything they need to operate a successful residential building business. “By providing a smart comprehensive package, our franchisees can concentrate on doing what they do best, selling and building great homes,” says Wilson.

Many years of experience and expertise sits behind the Milestone Homes brand and this is channelled through the national support office in Tauranga. Around 25 staff makes up the support office team with the sole purpose being to provide support services to the franchisee group. These services include draughting and estimating, accounting, marketing, PR and operational support.

Buying power and consistency of quality supply are paramount to a successful building business and Milestone franchisees enjoy the benefits a national New Zealand based supplier network. This means that all products and materials used in the construction of Milestone houses are quality backed by applicable supplier backup, support and warranties.

The business also requires all franchisees to be a member of the Registered Master Builders Federation, providing benefits and protection for franchisees and clients alike. “By partnering with an independent organisation such as Master Builders, our franchisees have access to the best Residential Building Contracts in the building industry as well as the ability to offer a 10 year Masterbuild Guarantee with every home they build.”

Mr Wilson says that Milestone Homes is looking to expand the national franchise base by welcoming smart new business owners into the group. “If you have a background in the building industry, want to work hard on your own business, enjoy the challenge of a dynamic industry, recognise the power of a national brand, and want to grow your business and build an asset then we’d like to talk to you. Throw in a passion for great customer service and you might just be the smart operator we’re looking for.”
