We’ll schedule a 45-60 min call with a Franchise Developer. In that conversation, you’ll learn about our brand in greater detail and we’ll answer as many questions as you have. We want to learn what drives your desire to own a business for yourself. We’ll try to understand your experience to see if you’d be a good fit as well.

During this time, you’ll do some research, and we’ll formulate boundaries for your potential territory & begin to understand the market conditions that exist there. You can also call existing franchise partners to hear about their experiences.
If you’re a good fit, we’ll connect in person & spend a day discovering with us, seeing the Gig Rig & business first hand, meeting the founder and discussing details.

You’ll review & sign your franchise agreement & documentation originated by our legal team & pay the initial franchise fees.

Welcome to Worried Bird! Your franchise is ready to launch! Construction on your Gig Rig begins and you gain access to Worried Bird Academy to begin your training during that time.

There are many financing options for you. Funding your franchise is not hard. We have 3rd party lenders we work with ready to help you right now.

Worried bird financing options

Home Refinance or Equity Line of Credit:
As the market rebounds, you might have more equity in your home. Potential franchisees can often refinance their homes, thanks to low interest rates, and pull enough capital out to purchase a franchise. We suggest that you check with your local credit union or community bank; often, they are willing to work with customers. You might also be able to secure a line of credit based on your home equity portion, which can help with ramp-up costs.

401(k) or IRA Roll Over:
Tapping into your retirement fund is a popular way to fund a business. There are several advantages, and there are no financial penalties if you do it right. By creating a C corporation and corporate retirement account and moving corporate stocks, you can, in effect, loan money to yourself. It is always a popular financing option.

Cash:
While Worried Bird only requires a minimum liquidity of $30,000, you may have more capital you could use to get started. If you have the liquidity, cash is always a great way to invest. Your savings could be the key to unlocking a richly rewarding investment without the hassle of third parties, tax penalties, or interest rates.

Friends and Family:
A great place to make up any gap remaining friends and family that believes in what you're doing is a great resource to get the leftover capital needed to make your business ownership a reality.

It is a great question! By law, we're not allowed to say how much you are "going" to make. However, a single operator in one Gig Rig maxes out at about $1,200 / day.

Great question!

There's a lot that happens here! To name a few, we provide sales services to help you get started and to help you land and expand commercial and residential accounts and routes.

You'll also receive constant weekly video training in our training academy, coupled with a robust, in-the-field playbook detailing how to find customers, keep them and expand them.

A routine phone call keeps you accountable and on track with your targets, goals and your ultimate vision.

PLUS A WHOLE LOT MORE that we can't tell you about here. 😉 We are proficient with client acquisition. It's our strong suit. We'll show you how we do it!

As many as you need! If you want to grow your territory and operations, multiple Gig Rigs can be built and shipped to your area within about 8 weeks.

That's just it! You don't need any prior experience. All you need a strong desire to grow a brand and build something you'll be proud of.

A truck is best. We require a vehicle that is no more than ten years old. Your hitch must be able to carry 3,000 lbs. If you don't have a truck, that's okay! Another capable vehicle will work, but it will need to be approved before the service begins.

After signing your franchise agreement, you can count on starting after about 75 days.

Our system is lean and efficient. It allows little overhead, high margins and flexibility. No need for office space either. Park the rig at home and reap the rewards of mobile service delivery.

Starting with a single rig is a great place to start. After your rig reaches capacity, you can:

Acquire a new territory to service
Acquire another Gig Rig to service your current territory
Both 1 and 2

It is scaled as you grow - keeping expenses as linear as possible.
