FRANCHISE TESTIMONIALS
Since successfully transitioning to a franchise model in 2018 the company’s growth has been significant and, combined with our reputation for innovation, reliability and excellence we are continuously raising industry benchmarks for others to try to reach.
AND THE FUTURE LOOKS EVEN BIGGER
As Nuflow continues to push to new frontiers in terms of what our products can achieve, and as more and more people come to understand how our systems can often solve drain and pipe problems more efficiently and affordably than traditional plumbing methods, market share will continue to increase.
I started my first plumbing business at 28 and bought a few franchises along the way. They’ve all got very high turnovers and I’ve been managing them myself on a full-time basis. But the potential I see for Nuflow and pipe relining is massive and maybe I was ready for a new challenge, so I’ve stepped down as MD to focus entirely on Nuflow Northern Rivers.
We run a family plumbing business and we solely went into pipe relining because the market demanded it. When we started looking into Nuflow and going through their processes and how they went about things, it was clear their approach was very similar to ours because they were all about the quality, and like us, they operate along the lines of – when somebody else says no, we say yes.
With their franchise model they’re going to be able to build their brand to become more recognised as a complete relining service rather than just a manufacturer of relining supplies and we want to be part of the process that builds that brand, and make Nuflow the ‘go to’ if someone thinks relining – kind of like the Eski of relining. And we genuinely believe that’s where Nuflow can be.
There was a small operation in Victoria I was considering signing with, but then out of the blue a guy from Nuflow rang and I really liked everything he told me about what they were trying to achieve so next day I drove down to the Gold Coast to have a look and I was sold.
I signed a few weeks later and I’ve been growing with them ever since. The other company’s not even around anymore so it was a really lucky coincidence because Nuflow’s just getting bigger and bigger and the product and the network are getting stronger, so to me it’s ticking a lot of boxes.
We chose to adopt the Nuflow system because of its versatility, with Nuflow’s ability to custom make liners we can reline virtually any pipe that we come across, and with their network of close to 40 licensees and highly experienced staff at Nuflow there is always plenty of advice and support available when you come across those “out of the ordinary” jobs.
The Nuflow relining system is a core part of our business, and is the most profitable, it gives us a unique selling point that places us way ahead of the competition and other plumbers in town are even bringing work to us!
Nuflow has a network of franchisees around Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia, this enables us to tap into a wealth of knowledge in using the Nuflow product.
As a Franchisee, Nuflow are the only relining product in the marketplace that backs their product with comprehensive training and product support. Having the Nuflow product manufactured on the Gold Coast enables us to provide bespoke solutions to our clients in a timely and cost-effective manner.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF JOINING THE NUFLOW FRANCHISING FAMILY?
Some of the benefits our franchise partners have identified as being integral to their decision to join Nuflow are:
AFFORDABILITy
Very reasonable upfront purchase price and modest monthly fees.
Opportunity
CIPP relining is still in the early stages of the product life cycle which means low competition and abundant opportunities for immediate growth.
Profitability
Profit margins can be incredibly high, particularly when alternate options (i.e. traditional methods of excavation and replacement) would be extremely costly.
SUPPORT
Nuflow invests heavily in support for franchise partners, both technical support (training, on-call advice and guidance over the phone, via teleconferencing or on site) and operational support (providing national sales, marketing, branding, R&D and administrative support). Costs for such things are included in monthly service fees because we recognise this as being fundamental to the success of a franchise program. We also can provide physical resources such as highly trained relining staff, specialised tools and equipment hire if required.
FUTURE LONG-TERM GROWTH
Pipes continue to be installed under roadways, buildings and other infrastructure which suggests Nuflow will maintain its current year-on-year growth over the long term. New product developments also suggest there are potential markets which have not yet even been identified.
INDEPENDENCe
Profit margins can be incredibly high, particularly when alternate options (i.e. traditional methods of excavation and replacement) would be extremely costly.
OPPORTUNITIES TO NETWORK
At training sessions, annual conference and informally.
CONVENIENT ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY, VERSATILE AND EASY-TO-USE PRODUCTS
Franchise partners have easy, convenient access to our highly reputable products which are suited to an incredibly diverse range of conditions and types of pipe.
KEEPING THINGS LOCAL
With headquarters in Queensland and franchise partners in New Zealand and throughout the Asia-Pacific region, we’re helping create local jobs, develop local industry and retain profits on shore.
