Business Model
With proper planning, expert management and personal attention, a move can be smooth and successful. These are the cornerstones of the Moving Solutions approach. Moving Solutions helps seniors and busy professionals plan for a stress-free move. Typical services include planning and organizing, developing customior plans, arranging for donations and sale of unneeded items, scheduling and overseeing movers, packing and unpacking, and completely resettling the home.

Why it Works
Proven success. When you invest in a Moving Solutions franchise, you are not stuck reinventing the wheel; you are using proven methods based on a decade of experience with thousands of clients. We understand that client service is where rubber meets the road.

Effective marketing needs to be supported by sound performance and management systems. Our business model addresses all three. Focus is everything. Left on their own, small business owners tend to focus on projects and processes within their comfort zone, often at the cost of other, critical functions. Our unique franchisee coaching program helps you focus so you do first things first. You maximize the effectiveness of yourself as a business owner, of your employees and of your organization.

Benefits of diversification. A unique aspect of our approach is that we define our market to include both seniors and working professionals. The heart of our business is working with older adults. However, moving is a highly seasonal business. Diversification helps address this issue and provides you with additional income streams if you desire.

An investment, not a hobby. In order to perfect your existing strategy, you begin with the end in mind. This means structuring your business in the beginning so you are able to grow it and profitably sell it, should you desire, in the future. The systems you receive as a Moving Solutions franchisee --- marketing systems, operational systems, information systems --- enable you to work on the growth of your business, not in it, and your buyer can continue the systems, networks and success you have built.

Our Market Approach
A unique advantage of our approach is the way we have defined our choice clients to include both seniors and Baby Boomers/working professionals. The moving industry is highly seasonal. Diversification provides additional income streams and reduces the impact of seasonality. In addition, incorporating working professionals accomplishes two key marketing goals:

Life stage, not age-specific marketing. Market research overwhelmingly indicates that seniors do not want to purchase services that are sold to a specific age group; they prefer to purchase products and services that address a particular life stage, such as people who are downsizing. This is particularly true of younger seniors --- those 60-75. Adding working professionals to your client base enables young seniors to utilize your services without viewing themselves as “old”.

Boomers and beyond. Since many of the 35 million Baby Boomers have parents, aunts and uncles who may need our help, they represent opportunities for repeat business as well as additional referrals. Boomers who hire you for their own move are very likely to use your services when their parents need to downsize and move.
