Maid Brigade, a green franchise out of Atlanta, is giving away franchises…..<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Maid Brigade Veterans Franchise Giveaway<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, is a program that will
award more than $1.5 million in business ownership opportunities to 100+ veterans, creating more than 1,000 jobs nationwide. WOW!<\/p>\n

If you are a Veteran, you military experience could come in handy as a franchise owner. To enter, just tell the judges over at Maid Brigade how your experience and responsibilities in the military would qualify to make you a successful Maid Brigade franchise owner. <\/p>\n

This franchise consultant is honored to be a part of this program. As a matter of fact, one of the judges<\/a>, Ray Toombs, is a Canton, Ohio Maid Brigade franchise owner<\/strong> who I helped get into business…..<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The contest comes at a time when America’s economy is down, but patriotism is high. Maid Brigade, the award-winning residential cleaning service and longtime supporter of the military, is acting on both fronts by offering new careers to veterans, a group it considers worthy, qualified, and proven as franchise owners.<\/p>\n

Currently, 10 percent of Maid Brigade owners are veterans<\/strong>; others in the network come from a range of careers.<\/p>\n

The contest will launch on Independence Day, July 4, and conclude on Veterans Day, November 11, 2009.<\/p>\n

To apply for the giveaway, veterans must visit www.maidbrigadegiveaway.com<\/span><\/a><\/strong> to complete the form and to submit a short essay by September 30 on how their military responsibilities would translate to successful Maid Brigade franchise ownership.<\/p>\n

Maid Brigade will waive its $14,500 Select Market Franchise fee for as many as 100 qualified veteran applicants. Additionally, one grand prize winner will receive a new Maid Brigade franchise operation at zero cost\u2014a total value of $45,000, which includes waived franchise fees, working capital, training, and equipment. Second and third place winners will receive similar packages valued at $27,500 and $17,500, respectively. A Maid Brigade Select Market Franchise is designed for smaller geographical regions. <\/p>\n

Owners manage all business aspects of an operation and oversee a staff of employees who clean homes following Maid Brigade’s certified Green Cleaning system.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Here’s an interview<\/a> <\/strong>that I did with Ray Toombs<\/strong>, one of the Maid Brigade Veterans Franchise Giveaway<\/span><\/strong> judges.<\/p>\n
