HQ-led decisions

Count Junkula

Home services

Software purchasing at Count Junkula is controlled at the headquarters level by a tight-knit founding team that includes a Chief Technology Officer. The franchise currently mandates Dashula and QuickBooks, and operates a small, fully company-owned footprint of just 2 units. For vendors, this represents a lean, founder-led target where a direct pitch to the C-suite is the only viable path.

The vendor opportunity at Count Junkula

Count Junkula is a home-services concept headquartered in North Carolina with a total footprint of just 2 units, both of which are company-owned. The number of franchised locations was not disclosed in the 2022 Franchise Disclosure Document, suggesting the brand is either pre-franchise or has not yet scaled its franchising efforts. For software vendors, the addressable market is extremely small—limited to these two corporate locations—making this a low-volume, high-touch sales target. The average unit volume (AUV) is not disclosed, and year-over-year unit growth was not reported. The royalty rate is 8.0% on an initial term of 10 years.

Who controls software purchasing

All software purchasing decisions are centralized at the headquarters level. The FDD lists four co-founders as the key executives: Jason Tudor (Co-Founder and CEO), Chad Emerick (Co-Founder and COO), Haze Lancaster III (Co-Founder and Strategic Advisor), and Matthew Sneed (Co-Founder and CTO). For a vendor, the most direct path is through Matthew Sneed, who owns the technology function, or Chad Emerick, who oversees operations. There are no multi-unit operators mapped in our corpus, meaning no franchisee-level buying centers exist. A pitch must be concise, technically credible, and address the specific pain points of a founder-operated business.

Mandated and current tech stack

The 2022 FDD mandates two specific technology systems. Dashula is the required operational platform, and both QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online by Intuit Inc. are mandated for financial management. Any software that integrates with or replaces these systems must demonstrate clear compatibility. The stack is lean, reflecting the small unit count. There is no indication of a CRM, payroll, or marketing automation mandate in the disclosed items, which may represent white space for complementary tools.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

The FDD does not include an Item 8 extract, so the formal procurement model—whether designated supplier, approved supplier, or open—is not publicly known. Renewal terms, outlined in Item 17, provide a 5-year extension window contingent on good standing, a $5,000 renewal fee, and agreement to the then-current Franchise Agreement, which may contain materially different terms including royalty or territory changes. With a 10-year initial term and no active franchising growth, natural contract windows are rare. Vendors should approach this as a point-in-time replacement opportunity rather than a recurring sales cycle.
