For many reasons, every day people request information from the thousands of franchise and business opportunities that are available today. We at the More Space Place® believe that we offer an outstanding business ownership opportunity for the right individuals. Selfishly, we want the most qualified and capable Franchisee that we can find for every market we enter.

If you are entirely new to franchising, there are numerous books available on the subject. One of my favorites is “Franchising for Dummies” written by Michael Seid and the late Dave Thomas of Wendy’s. This book offers an enormous amount of information on the basics of franchising and is written in an easy to read and easy to follow format. We not only feel that it is important that you understand the basics of franchising, but also that you are able to appreciate the components of a good franchise system.

Thank you for your interest in us, we welcome the opportunity to work with you and if we mutually agree, to building your More Space Place® business.

Why More Space Place?

"I've worked with people throughout my professional career. Early on I started teaching, and learned that teaching is much more than just controlling a group of people. From there I free-lanced for a period of time as a residential interior designer, finding those teaching skills even more important! In the recent past, I've worked for a large corporation utilizing all the skills I'd accumulated along the way, plus new ones in the position of a marketing representative. 

When I first discovered the More Space Place organization, I was impressed with not only the product they produce, but the caliber of the people who ran the corporation, and the individuals who owned the stores. I was so impressed with the ENTIRE package, I decided that it was something I wanted to be a part of. What I've found is a corporation that truly cares about the individual store owners, the product they produce, and I couldn't be more thrilled to be a part of what they do. 

After attending the annual owner's meeting, I was totally convinced that I'd made the right decision. What I found was a group of individuals who eagerly share their ideas, and wisdom, and will be there as a support for one another. The franchise corporate team is continually working to improve not only the product, but the marketing, and distribution of the product. Being a part of this meeting was invaluable to be able to grasp the whole picture, and what I'd chosen as my life career path. 

Every individual at the corporate headquarters has always made themselves accessible, and what I've found is continual support and encouragement from all of them. I can't imagine a better franchise to be a part of and am proud to say I'm a member of this dynamic group!!!"
