Industry Overview
The cleaning and building maintenance industry is a multi-billion dollar industry. The amount of growth and services required has exploded, to put it mildly. Generally, most window cleaning franchises appeal to people because of the low overhead and minimal start-up costs. It can be run from a home office and supplies and tools are usually a minimal cost. At Gorilla, we have diversified the company from becoming not just a “Window Cleaning Company”, but being the industries “Total Package”, honing in on and perfecting all aspects of the Top 6 services in the exterior property maintenance industry…..You’re gonna love it!
Why Gorilla?
Reason No.1: Our branding.
Our large happy Gorilla, along with the cool, fun looking trucks, it’s almost impossible not to look at and smile. Out National 1-844-GORILLA makes a strong first impression with everyone. Our teams can literally park the “Monkey Truck”, start a job, and customers will call. It’s almost that easy.
Our marketing teams “Out of the Box” styles combined with the traditional standard types of marketing (PR, social media, online and print)is how we’ve grown this company and fine-tuned ourselves into a well-oiled machine.
Reason No.2: The Gorilla Call Centre – “Stress Relief”
The Gorilla Call Centre is the heart of the day to day operations. Receiving phone calls and emails then dispatching them accordingly to each territory is a huge weight off of our franchisees shoulders. The Gorilla Call Centre can provide a quick estimate to the client over the phone (for smaller jobs) which saves time and money for our franchisees. Larger projects that require an onsite walk around and formal proposal are scheduled with the franchisee and the client, allowing the personal touch and face to face with the client.
Reason No.3: Training and Support
Gorilla’s support does not end once the training is complete. We want our franchisees to know that they always have a team behind them. Our ongoing support, training and coaching are the key elements for growth. Once our franchisees have completed the initial field and clerical training, they will be ready to go! Not sure about something or have a quick question? No problem, our Gorilla Call Centre is there for you.
Our Clientele
Why they choose us…..
It’s quite simple really. Gorilla Property Services was developed with the intent to fill a void.
There seemed to be a lot of companies in the industry, but nobody had that extra little “Spark”. Some claimed to be the fastest pressure washers, some claimed to be the best at graffiti removal and a good chunk of them claimed to be the “cheapest” price in town. Our system is simple. When one of the Gorilla Mobiles pulls up for service, the Gorilla technician will perform the highest level of service possible.
Our clients don’t have to worry or question the level of the technician’s ability, as each and every Gorilla Technician goes through the same rigorous training period and process before hopping into the Gorilla Mobile. They are uniformed, friendly, clean cut and eager to please.
As the owner of Gorilla Property Services, I personally have 20 years’ experience in the property maintenance industry. With experience comes knowledge. Knowing what products work and when to use them, knowing how to apply them in a fashion that suits the environment you are in, and many more “tricks of the trade” are features that must be earned through time with trial and error over the years. Not every technician makes the cut either. Hand picking our technicians from a pool of applicants is also an advantage Gorilla Property Services has over our competition.
Our Gorilla Tech’s are provided a fun and clean atmosphere to work in, they are provided with the best training and equipment available, and they are part of a team-a strong team. I was once told something from the gentleman who trained me a long time ago and has stuck with me since day one, “If you don’t take care of your customers, someone else will”.This is what we strive for. Complete Customer Satisfaction.
