The Outdoor Lighting Perspectives franchise owner shares our philosophy and is passionate about joining a brand dedicated to helping clients celebrate and enjoy outdoor living by extending their leisure time outdoors while enhancing the beauty, safety, and security of their homes and businesses. We seek financially qualified candidates who are inspired by our mission and want to launch a low-overhead, easy entry business at the top of the industry. No electrical licensing or trade experience is needed to become a franchise owner with us. We also welcome current industry professionals seeking conversion opportunities or add-ons.
Franchise owners and their managers will receive initial training, onboarding, site visits, and corporate support for marketing, bookkeeping, IT, sales, and operations and comprehensive training on the OLP and Empower Brands’ Ignite franchise model, both in the classroom and on the job. When it’s time for your Grand Opening, our franchise team will travel to your location to make sure you are calm, confident, and excited when you open your doors, and we will conduct twice-yearly in-person meetings to keep you on track and your business growing. Owners will have access to the Outdoor Lighting Perspectives Confidential Operations Manual for daily operations. Our team is available to assist you when you need us. We are always just a call or click away.
