Home Franchise Concepts (HFC) is the parent company (franchisor) for Budget Blinds. The culture at HFC is always focused on the success of their franchisees, and Budget Blinds is their premier franchise. You are never alone with HFC support. From their field support people to your access to senior management, and their franchise advisory board, the franchisees have a solid voice at HFC. They have met and often exceeded my expectations with training, support and follow through.
Budget Blinds is the flagship brand under the HFC umbrella. Sister brands include Tailored Living (home & garage organization), Concrete Craft (stamped, coated and stained concrete), AdvantaClean (cleaning & restoration) and Kitchen Tune-Up. Budget Blinds Franchisees operate within a protected territory defined by ZIP codes.
All systems have been streamlined for profitability; No retail storefront; No inventory; No accounts receivable and great cash flow because the customers pay for their order in full before the order is placed with the manufacturer. As a franchise under the umbrella brand of Home Franchise Concepts, Budget Blinds of San Francisco West & Southwest enjoys the benefits of operational support and a multimillion dollar marketing program from the largest window covering franchise in North America.
This is a shop-at-home consumer goods business, offering an extraordinary range of exclusive interior window coverings and name-brand products, from blinds to shades to shutters to custom drapery, for both residential and commercial customers. We offer solutions that include child safety, energy efficiency, light filtering, room darkening and motorization, all from an alliance of over 20+ manufacturing partners.
The Budget Blinds model offers a high profit margin for even smaller sales. As noted earlier, you can build your business to the size you want and still be profitable. This means that someone who just wants a smaller business can still make very good money and keep their business small, or someone with larger goals can grow their franchise into a larger operation paying their staff and themselves very well.
The window coverings industry is in the midst of a seismic shift from manual products to motorized and automated products, which have a higher price point than traditional corded products. This shift presents an unprecedented growth opportunity and Budget Blinds of San Francisco West & Southwest is experienced, trained and positioned to capitalize on the rising wave of new business.
