Frequently Asked Questions
Check the dropdowns below for answers to our most frequently asked questions.
We are open to discussing the purchase of your pool service business and routes on behalf of our franchisees. We would like you to consider converting your business over to an Ultra Pool Care Squad franchise as it could alleviate many of the concerns you are experiencing with your current business. We recommend that you call us at 1300 755 999 and talk to our Development Team about your situation and discover if we may be able to assist you with any transition.
We offer you something better. We are offering “territories” that will be exclusive to you and your franchise organisation. This allows you to build not only a route but a company that will provide revenue and value.
Our team will provide marketing and training support so that you have the best chance of success in recruiting new customers – and then keeping them for a long-term relationship.
In some instances, we will have existing customers already within a territory. This will be discussed as part of your franchise agreement; however, most territories will be areas that allow you to build your business.
If you’re looking for franchise opportunities with low fees, Ultra Pool Care Squad may be the perfect fit for you. Don’t hesitate to reach out to our team for further information.
Absolutely! There are multi-route opportunities available. Your Ultra Pool Care Squad franchise adviser will be happy to tell you all about it!
No one is going to be as invested in your business as you are. We find that, at least in the beginning, owner/operators are better able to establish and grow their business. As you add more customers, there will come a time when you may need to add another truck and build a team. That’s where being a franchisee is helpful – Ultra Pool Care Squad’s support team can help you make the correct moves to keep your business growing.
Your time to clean a pool varies depending on the size of the pool, time of year, and how much it is used – but on average it will take about 30-45 minutes per pool.
One Pool Tech in an Ultra Pool Care Squad van can clean 100-130 pools per month in addition to servicing and installing equipment. The UPCS team can customise the best route for your territory for maximum efficiency. Using these numbers, you could be cleaning up to 10 pools per day.
Yes – we have a monthly technology fee that is to help create and maintain some of the digital tools you’ll use to market your Ultra Pool Care Squad franchise. These tools include individual location web pages; branded email addresses, and social media pages – with available content to download and post.
It is impossible for us to answer this question as there are so many factors that impact earning potential – from which business model you choose, to prior experience level, to where your territory is located, to how much work you put in on the business… We can say for sure that we think the opportunity to be your own boss is priceless!
Absolutely not! As long as you know where the water goes in a pool, then our intensive training program will teach you the rest!
The initial franchise fee for a single territory is $40,000. We also offer a multi-territory agreement. If you sign this agreement, you commit to opening and operating multiple franchises in a defined territory. Under this option, the franchise fee is reduced.
The initial investment to open your Ultra Pool Care Squad business will vary based on your territory, business model, and other factors. It generally ranges from $82,800. For a more detailed explanation of costs, visit the investment tab or contact us today to schedule an introductory call.
Royalty fees are what make a franchise system possible. Franchisors use royalties to grow the brand and the business. These monies support the use of the Ultra Pool Care Squad trademarks as well as providing ongoing field support and updates to manuals, systems, and infrastructure. The Ultra Pool Care Squad has a monthly royalty fee that is less than the average franchise networks.
Advertising and marketing are two key elements to grow a business. As an Ultra Pool Care Squad franchisee, you will have two ways to contribute to advertising and marketing. The first is through a monthly marketing fee. Franchisees will also do assisted local advertising programs in their territory.
