What people worried about first

  • Steve Conn initially feared royalties would deplete his profits, but after seven years, he realized he could not hire staff to perform the same billing and support functions for the cost of the royalties.

  • The investment in Image One was sizable but compared to other franchises it wasn't really as much as a steep drop as you would think so I'm pleased with the price, I'm pleased with the experience, I'm pleased with the people and I couldn't be more happy.

    Damen Miller
  • Jason Jones described the investment as sizable but 'very reasonable' compared to other industries and cleaning franchises. He confirmed he feels he made a good investment because he began seeing profit only seven months into the venture.
