Description
Painter1 offers a unique painting franchise opportunity built by industry veterans who have operated both local and national painting businesses. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, the founders designed a franchise model that eliminates corporate red tape and provides real-world support from a team that actively owns and operates Painter1 locations. This means franchisees receive relevant, up-to-date guidance on marketing, operations, and painter management directly from experienced professionals who understand the daily realities of the business.
Painter1 is committed to building the strongest painting franchise brand by offering low startup costs, the lowest royalty fees in the industry, and a collaborative, growth-focused environment. Franchisees benefit from an honest, transparent partnership aimed at sustainable long-term success.

Training: Painter1 takes a slightly different approach to new Franchisee Trainings. Each new owner into the Painter1 system is provided with a Mentor for 3 years. Mentors are those existing Painter1 owners who meet the qualifications necessary to facilitate the role of a Mentor and are compensated for their function as a Mentor. New owners are able to train at our corporate office in Spanish Fork, UT. About 3 days of in-class training and are also able to receive interactive, hands-on training with their Mentor in the Mentor's territory. It's the best, most efficient way, we've found, to train new owners.
