11. Frequently Asked Questions
• What Does the Initial Investment Include?
The initial investment includes our hand selected Bio-One Inc. crime scene cleaning PPE
(Personal Protective Equipment) kit, the basics you'll need to recover/clean scenes, tools
of the trade, specialty equipment, software and computer equipment, working capital,
classroom hands on training, BOTS certification, and on-site training at your franchise
location from Bio-One Inc. management. A full report of your franchise market and
marketing plan put together from Bio-One Inc. management. This detailed report includes
proper meetings with municipal individuals, organizations to join, networking groups to
attend, and more.
• Will I Need a Business Loan?
Most franchise candidates find they can fund their business by accessing capital they already
have available to them through the equity in their home or by accessing qualifying
retirement plans such as a 401-K, 403-B, IRAs, Profit Sharing or Defined Benefit Plans
without incurring penalties or tax consequences (please talk to your financial planner or tax
adviser). Financing options may also include third party (family or friends). In some very
select situation Bio-One Inc. will offer limited financing based on a number of risk factors.
Please inquire with management for details.
12. Frequently Asked Questions
• Do you have franchise territories?
No. We had a franchisee travel 13 hours to recover a scene at his former Air Force Base. They
called him as a former military officer who knew the layout of the base and already had site
clearance. While this was certainly not a normal scene, if we limited our franchisees ability
to make money due to territory restrictions and limited their contacts we would be limiting
their income. This turned out to be a $32,000 job.
• What is Bio-One Inc.'s ideal candidate to open a franchise?
Our ideal candidate needs to have the drive to really want to succeed. They must have
compassion for others and be willing to learn in a constantly evolving industry. Someone
that has worked for a restoration company or has a civil service background such as
police, fire, EMT or paramedic can quickly excel with those contacts. We also like people
that might have a background in military, construction, or possibly has a contractor's
license. They must have a minimum of $50,000 liquid capital, and be able to invest up to
$75,000.
13. Frequently Asked Questions
•
What types of qualities do you look for in potential franchisees?
We look for people that have compassion for other people. We look for people who really want to live the
American dream, be their own boss, and own their own successful company. Bio-One Inc. is more than
just money and success; it is about building relationships in your community and with community
leaders. If you're not compassionate and don't have a "help first, business second" attitude, this
industry is going to be very hard for you. There are many other good franchises that don't require you to
be a people person and have compassion.
•
On average, how long does it take to start a new Bio-One franchise?
We have a game plan of 90 days. A new Bio-One should be open and operating in no longer than 90 days.
We sold a Bio-One in 2010 and within 17 days of the gentleman owning Bio-One, he was called for a
$13,000 job and was paid nine days later. Not bad to have his first job a $13,000 job that took one
other employee less than four hours. While this is not typical, I want all the franchisees to get this kind
of a jump start.
•
What makes your industry attractive?
Our industry is attractive because it is 100% recession proof. We have the highest margins in our category,
and we are a very niche market. Lastly, there will always be a need for crime & trauma scene cleanup;
as the population increases, so does crime, it's a fact of life.
