Pink's Franchising
Home servicesSoftware purchasing at Pink's Franchising is controlled at the headquarters level by a lean executive team led by CEO Steven Montgomery. The most recent Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) does not disclose any mandated or recommended technology systems, leaving the current tech stack undefined for outside vendors. With 164 total units—162 franchised and 2 company-owned—the addressable market is concentrated but entirely single-unit operators, meaning no multi-unit owner buying power exists.

The vendor opportunity at Pink's Franchising
Pink's Franchising operates 164 total units in the home services segment, with 162 franchised locations and just 2 company-owned outlets. The system reported an average unit volume (AUV) of $281,886 in the most recent FDD. A 7.0% royalty rate applies across the network, and the initial franchise term runs 10 years. Year-over-year unit growth was not disclosed. For software vendors, the addressable market is 164 locations, but the operator footprint reveals a critical structural detail: all 53 mapped operators are single-unit owners. There are zero multi-unit operators in the 2–9, 10–24, or 25+ unit bands. This means every sale is a one-location decision, with no portfolio-level purchasing leverage from franchisees.
Geographically, the system is concentrated in Texas (16 units), California (7), Florida (3), Arizona (3), and North Carolina (3). The headquarters is located in Texas. No parent company is on file, indicating Pink's Franchising is independently owned.
Who controls software purchasing
Software purchasing authority sits at the franchisor level. The executive team listed in Item 1 of the 2026 FDD includes Steven Montgomery (CEO and Founder), Brandon Downer (Co-Founder and Co-President), Carter Smith (Co-Founder and Co-President), Anthony Sutter (General Counsel), and Connor Charland (Senior Vice President, Marketing, Innovation & Growth). For a software vendor, the most likely entry points are Connor Charland, whose title explicitly includes innovation, or the Co-Presidents, who oversee operations. The General Counsel will likely be involved in any enterprise-level agreement review. Because no franchisee advisory council or technology committee is mentioned, the buying center appears compact and centralized.
Mandated and current tech stack
The 2026 FDD does not identify any mandated or recommended technology systems. No point-of-sale vendor, CRM, scheduling platform, field service management tool, or back-office system is named in the disclosure. This absence can mean one of two things for a vendor: either the franchisor leaves technology decisions entirely to franchisees, or the systems in use are not formally mandated and therefore not disclosed. In either case, the lack of a mandated stack means there is no incumbent vendor to displace at the franchisor level, but also no top-down mandate to drive adoption across the network. A vendor would need to sell directly to the franchisor on the value of standardization, or pitch individual operators one by one.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines purchasing and procurement restrictions, contains no extract in the available data. This means the procurement model—whether designated supplier, approved supplier, or open purchasing—is not publicly known from the current disclosure. Vendors should inquire directly about any supplier qualification processes during initial conversations.
Item 17 provides the renewal framework. Franchisees in good standing may sign a successor agreement for an additional 10-year term, provided they give written notice at least 10 months before expiration, pay a successor agreement fee of 10% of the then-current initial franchise fee, and bring equipment and assets up to then-current specifications. The franchisor retains sole discretion to withdraw from a geographical area. The renewal conditions also state that franchisees may be asked to sign a new franchise agreement with materially different terms. For software vendors, these renewal moments—when franchisees must upgrade equipment and systems to current standards—represent natural windows to introduce new technology, especially if the franchisor updates system specifications at that time.
How to read the Pink's Franchising FDD
The 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document for Pink's Franchising is embedded below. This document is the primary source for all data on this page, including unit counts, executive names, financial performance representations, and contractual terms. Software vendors evaluating this franchise should pay particular attention to Item 11 (franchisor assistance, where technology mandates would appear), Item 8 (procurement restrictions), and Item 17 (renewal and modification conditions). The absence of technology mandates in the current FDD does not guarantee the franchisor will remain hands-off—many franchisors introduce system-wide technology requirements at renewal or through operations manuals that are not reproduced in the FDD itself. For a ranked target list of franchise systems matched to your software category, FranCloud can help.
