Painter 1
Painter1 has an elaborate background of experience both in the industry and in franchising. Painter1 first got its start over 25+ years ago when one of the founders first started Five Star Painting; the now, 2nd largest painting franchise in North America. Having done all this before, the founders at Painter1 saw the need to put owners’ success first and change some of the key elements standard in other systems. These measures were taken in order to reduce restrictions and overhead to owners, and to allow for more streamlined success. In short, Painter1 offers the best of both worlds; all the experience and knowledge needed for successful business ownership, coupled with cutting-edge improvements that make for a more owner-centric system!
