JAN-PRO – Helping you become your own boss!

I was born in El Salvador and have lived in Northwest Florida along with my family for several years.

I love the Emerald Coast community and through my involvement with my children’s school activities, United for a Good Cause Inc., work and other areas of interest, I have met many wonderful people.  I have had a chance to participate in numerous incredible events and worked with several terrific organizations.

I’ve served as a volunteer for the “Emerald Coast Christmas Miracle Needy Children’s Fiesta” since it started in 2005, and I serve as the Vice-Chairperson for United for a Good Cause Inc.  I also volunteer as a chaperone for band and chorus trips and at school events and have had the opportunity to participate in the Relay for Life of the Emerald Coast!  I live a very busy, but enjoyable life for sure.

But the purpose of this is for me to tell you about a great opportunity that was presented to me earlier this year.  I was introduced to JAN-PRO of Northwest Florida and South Alabama through a mutual connection.  JAN-PRO is a commercial cleaning company that helps people start and grow their own business.  JAN-PRO has been around for many years and has offices across North America and in many other countries.  Last year, they opened an office here in our area!

I began working with JAN-PRO part-time to help with some of the businesses they were serving until they could find new franchise owners that wanted to take over these accounts.  But I found I enjoyed the work so much and felt such great support from the company that I decided to start my own JAN-PRO franchise this past January…I was their very first franchise business owner in this area!

After I completed my training and set-up my new business, I was ready to start taking my very own accounts in March.  Since that time, through hard work and with the help of JAN-PRO, I have been able to build a cleaning business that is providing significant support to my family, and the number of new clients keeps growing!  Even though I work full time for another great company, the flexibility I have under JAN-PRO has allowed me to build my business around my full time job.  Pretty soon, I will be earning more income with my JAN-PRO business than via my full time job!

JAN-PRO does a lot to help me with my business, but, my favorite aspect of owning a JAN-PRO franchise is being able to build a successful, rewarding business while still staying active in the community and with my children’s school activities. With JAN-PRO, I am in business for myself but not by myself, and as long as I take great care of my customers, there is no limit to how large I can grow my business.

JAN-PRO is looking for more franchise owners in our area.  If you have a desire to own your own business and you are conversant in English, a JAN-PRO franchise may be perfect for you too.

Contact JAN-PRO for more information at 850-424-7972 (see ad in this edition) and tell them Estela sent you.  If I can do it, so can you!
