Pool Scouts makes a dedicated promise to each of our franchise partners to really BE partners. Mutual achievement through teamwork is our mission and we’re focused on being there for you – through every stroke and every lap. As a member of our franchise team, you’ll benefit from:
- A Solid Brand: Pool Scouts is a remarkable name and a strong brand that captures the spirit of our work. Customers associate the idea of scouts as trustworthy, honest and prepared, and they’re right! Our marketing materials and messaging all point to that trustworthiness, but with a tongue-in-cheek approach that keeps customers smiling and keeps us top of mind.
- Marketing Expertise: We provide our franchisees with access to a complete suite of promotional materials (e.g., signage, van-wraps, letterhead, etc.) and the strategic support to deploy them successfully. By arming you with proven methods and effective marketing tools, you can focus on customers and growing your business, the Pool Scouts way.
- Call Center: When customers call, we help franchise partners be responsive. The Pool Scouts Line is ready to receive calls 24/7 so your customers can count on a human experience to establish customer loyalty early on.
- Best in Class Business Management Tools: Our innovative communications and tracking is unique in the industry and simplifies the customer recruitment process, your marketing and scheduling activities. In addition, we offer training and assistance in accounting record-keeping for our franchise partners.
- Training and Continuing Education: Before launching your Pool Scouts franchise, we provide you with a complete training program at Pool Scouts Headquarters in sunny Virginia Beach, VA. Your Pool Scouts education is a comprehensive curriculum covering everything from equipment operation and regulatory compliance to marketing strategies and leading business practices. Learning and maintaining Pool Scouts’ high standards of quality service is dynamic, which is why we also offer ongoing training to our franchisees.
