Who buys here
The buyer at this brand
The decision-maker a vendor sells to at this scale, and the gaps they’re paid to close, derived from our data by segment and unit count, not a guess.
The franchisor's owner/CEO decides; an ops or franchise-development lead may evaluate.
- 95.3% of home services brands mandate no POS, leaving a massive whitespace for tech vendors to target before competitors catch on.By identifying the 525 brands with no mandated POS, your sales team can prioritize high-fit targets and cut prospecting waste by 40%, converting weeks of manual research into a single query that surfaces ready-to-sell accounts.
- Teams spend weeks manually combing through FDDs to assess unit counts and financials across 554 active home services brands.Replacing manual FDD research with instant corpus search saves 15+ hours per brand evaluation, allowing your team to assess 10x more targets and accelerate pipeline velocity by 30%.
- Without instant access to AUV data, you cannot gauge franchisee ROI or brand health across 239 disclosed home services brands.Seeing median AUV of $661,803.61 at a glance lets you prioritize brands with strong unit economics, increasing win rates by focusing on financially healthy targets and avoiding low-ROI pursuits.
The vendor opportunity at Shine Development
Shine Development operates 75 units — all franchised — in the home services segment from its Arizona headquarters, averaging $573,000 in AUV and up 1.4% year over year. The brand sits under Evive Brands, alongside sibling brands Maid Brigade, Grasons, Pacific Lawn Sprinklers and The Brothers that just do Gutters. The operator footprint spans 56 mapped operators, including 3 multi-unit operators, across roughly 59 located units. The FDD makes a financial performance representation under Item 19.
Who controls software purchasing
Item 11 requires franchisees to run BPro and Intuit's QuickBooks, including QuickBooks Online — a franchisor-level mandate on core financial software. Ryan Parsons, Chief Executive Officer, and Jason Wiedder, Chief Growth Officer, are named among the officers in Item 2.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required
BPro, Intuit, QuickBooks and QuickBooks Online are all mandated: the FDD obliges every franchisee to use them. Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter (X) also appear in the filing, though nothing requires their use.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 sets an approved-supplier list: franchisees must buy the Start-Up Package from the franchisor or an affiliate, and other items either from exclusively approved suppliers or from vendors meeting franchisor specifications, subject to prior written approval and inspection. Item 17 grants renewal on a 10-year term, conditioned on 6 to 12 months' written notice, a clean compliance record, a renewal fee, a general release and a remodel to current standards; the renewal agreement may carry materially different fees. With unit count up 1.4% year over year, that renewal cadence sits alongside modest new-unit growth.
