JIM’S FENCING FRANCHISES DELIVER!

A HISTORY OF THE BUSINESS

Jim's Mowing, originally 'Balwyn Gardening', was started by Jim Penman in December, 1982. Originally aimed only at taking on subcontractors, it gradually began to specialise in the building up and selling of lawn mowing rounds. With time, increasing numbers of services were offered to contractors, including replacement of lost jobs, training, brochures, seminars, better deals on equipment and insurance, care taking of rounds in case of illness or accident, and so forth. The change to a Franchise in mid 1989 was thus no more than an extension of the existing business.

The growth of Jim's Mowing since then has been rapid. From being small and relatively unknown, it has become the largest and best known mowing business in Australia. There are now branches throughout Australia, New Zealand, UK and Canada. A ‘Jim’s Cleaning’ division was launched in 1994, Jim’s Dog Wash in 1996, and Jim’s Building Maintenance, Jim's Tree's in early 1997. The key to success has been a consistent concern for the welfare of both Franchisees and clients. Jim is still actively involved in the running of the business. An account of the history and origin of Jim’s Mowing can be found in Jim's book, "Selling by not Selling"


Growth has been steady for the Group even in times where the rest of the business community has slowed. For example, Jim’s experienced a rise in Franchisee numbers during the last Australian recession, due to more recently unemployed people looking for a new income.

Now in 2012, Jim’s has over 3,000 Franchise Owners stretching across all States and territories of Australia and New Zealand, parts of Canada and the UK.


GROWTH OF THE SERVICES

Originally we offered the public 3 basic services which were Paling Fences, Picket Fences and Gates. This we found was sufficient in the early days but as time went on we found the public were looking for more from us, so we began to expand our services, to meet their needs. We now perform our original 3 services with the addition of Lysaghts Colorbond Steel, Security, Glass, Pool and Feature Fences, PVC, ARC, Hebel, Modular Wall Systems, Teco Block, Betafence and many other types of unique fencing.

From humble beginnings we have grown to be the biggest fencing erection company in Australia with some 180 dedicated Franchises Owners and sub-contractors building great fences. Not only are we in Melbourne, but we have also expanded interstate and now operate all of Victoria, A.C.T., Adelaide, Sydney, Goulburn, Wollongong, Tasmania, Western Australia, Northern Queensland, Gold Coast and Brisbane.

BENEFITS OF BEING A “JIM”

The Jim’s Group has become a household name with over 94% of the adult Australian population recognizing the name and logo which, in itself, is a very tangible benefit.

The main reason for people wishing to join Jim’s is to change their lifestyle. This means owning their own business and arranging their lifestyle around these business requirements.

Franchisees can nominate when and where they will take work which leads to the flow of work being adjusted to fill quiet periods or when taking on an employee.

Jim’s prices are not cheap; - rather the public views the company as delivery a fast, reliable, quality service. It is not necessary to cut prices to compete.

Promotions and advertising play a key role in positioning the company as market leader. All funds contributed by the Franchise Owners and are spent on activities directly related to their divisions. There are excellent economies of scale due to the bulk purchasing power of the Jim’s group.

ARE YOU CONSIDERING A CHANGE OF LIFESTYLE?

This is the most common reason people join Jim's, Franchise Owners enjoy working in the great outdoors, being in control of their own destiny and satisfaction from being self-employed. If this sounds like you, go below, for further information.

CURRENT OPERATOR?

Current operators are also welcome to join Jim's Fencing. Experienced operators enjoy working in a smaller geographic area, due to more leads in a smaller diameter. These Franchisees often become Trainers, and can be considered for other roles within the system. Experienced operators are able to grow their business to multiple trailers and employees, eventually getting off the tools and project managing.

RE BRAND YOUR BUSINESS WITH JIM'S FENCING

In some cases, a traditional Regional Franchisor model may not workin country or semi-rural areas. The Regional Fixed model is sometimes a suitable alternative with the added bonus if you choose to be able to franchise your business. Available only for people currently in the business and wanting to grow, it is similar to a licensing arrangement.
