Jim's Dog Wash

We need more franchisees to keep up with the huge demand!

As a Jim’s Dog Wash Franchisee you will be trained by some of Australia's best dog grooming instructors and supported by Australia’s largest, and most recognised home Services Franchise group, the 'Jim's group'.

Whilst our dog grooming franchisees come from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences they all have several things in common:

• Enjoy meeting people and have great communication skills
• Have a real drive and enthusiasm to be successful 
• Are positive individuals who can see the value to share and bond within a group of like-minded people
• True and passionate animal lovers 

There are not too many industries where you can truly say that most of the people within it are there because they love what they do, and are not in it just for the money. But ours is one of them!

Your Franchise terms are 10 +10 with no fee paid when you exercise your right to extend. You only ever pay one franchise purchase fee ever. You can even put on more trailers without having to purchase another territory or paying more fees!

There’s a Work Availability Guarantee (WAG)

Your monthly franchise fees are a set flat fee with the ability to take leads when and where you want or need them. This way the harder you work, the more you earn the more money you keep. A real reward for effort.

Jim's Dog Wash is committed to mobile Dog Grooming service in Australia; we believe that just because we offer a mobile service, that doesn’t mean we compromise on the quality Pet care, customer service or the standard of dog grooming that our customers receive.

At Jim's Dog Wash our service is not one of "Splash and Dash" but one of care, quality and flexibility to meet the requirements of our customers’ needs in today’s hectic and forever busy world.

Jim's Dog Wash has been a Division of Australia’s most recognised Franchise group, the Jim's group of companies since 1998.

1. Describe the franchise and the market it operates in.

Jim’s Dog wash began in 1989 following the successful beginnings of what is now known as the Jim’s group of companies, Australia’s largest and most recognised home services Franchise group. After many years of tried and tested franchise development Jim’s Dog Wash was started by Jim Penman (founder and CEO of the Jim’s Group). 

As a Jim’s Dog Wash Franchisee you’ll be part of a group that has over 32 different divisions and 3200 franchisees in four countries around the world. That’s a lot of experience. There’s also a good chance that you will know someone who, at some point in their life had something to with Jim’s, be that a customer, a supplier or a Jim’s franchisee themselves. Everybody knows ‘Jim’s’

Being part of the multibillion dollar pet industry and such a successful and well known franchise system as a Jim’s Dog Wash Franchisee you’ll have the best opportunity possible to build a successful business of your own.

As a Jim’s Dog Wash franchisee you’ll get support not only from your local Dog Wash franchisor but other franchisees in the network, the divisional franchisor and the Jim’s group National office.

It’s reported that the Pet industry in Australia is worth over 6 billion dollars a year. With around 3.4 million (registered) dogs needing care in Australia the opportunities are out there. As a Jim’s Dog Wash mobile groomer you not only earn income from Dog Washing and grooming, you’ll also be able to offer your customers:

• Pet food 
• Pet treats 
• Flea and Worm treatments 
• Pet accessory products 
• and other pet related services

Rain, hail or shine you’ll work outdoors whilst in the comfort of your own all weather, highly identifiable mobile dog grooming trailer.

We are currently suffering from an excess of work across Australia, turning away thousands of customers every year to an estimated potential value of three quarters of a million dollars.

We need Franchisees!

4. What do you require from a franchisee - what skills and experience must they possess?

To become a Jim’s Dog Wash Franchisee there’s no need to have to have had any prior experience working as a dog grooming, what you must have is a love for dogs, be a motivated self-starter and have a will to be successful.

We’ll train you on how to run your own business, we’re right next to you all the way through, helping you with the changing needs of your business as it grows.

We’ll have you trained by some of the best Grooming schools in Australia and you’ll gain support from a large network of Franchisees that have been through the exact same experience you will go through.

5. What is the recruitment process?

Jim’s Dog Wash grants franchises to people we think will have the ability, drive and understanding of what it takes to build a successful business. This selection criteria is the corner stone of what has helped many Jim’s Dog Wash franchisees build a business they can be truly proud of.

After initial talks with the Franchisor in your area the very first thing you will be invited to do is to spend a day out on the road with a current franchisee. We do this before anything else just to let you experience ‘a day in the life of a Mobile dog groomer’. From here, if you have enjoyed the day out (and most people do) you will again meet you’re your local Franchisor to discuss the franchise in more detail.

Once both parties agree that they would like to proceed we begin the exciting first steps of building your new business. 

You’ll begin Training (both business and Grooming), your trailer will be ordered and within weeks you could be running your very own business….no more bosses!
