Why I’m Franchising Pied Piper—And Offering It to My Employees First
After more than a decade of building Pied Piper into a company I’m proud of, I’ve decided to take it in a new direction: franchising. But this isn’t a typical franchise story, because the first people I want to hand the keys to are my own employees.
Here’s why. I started in this industry at 18 with nothing but a willingness to work. I spent 30 years learning everything I could in someone else’s company, and then I built my own. That path gave me everything—financial stability, professional satisfaction, and the freedom to choose how I spend my days. I want to offer that same path to the people who’ve helped me build Pied Piper.
The pest control industry is projected to reach $42 billion in market size by 2032, growing over 6% annually. It’s a resilient, recession-resistant business with recurring revenue and real community impact. And with Pied Piper’s proven systems—our training programs, operational playbooks, and more than ten distinct service lines—a new franchisee isn’t starting from scratch. They’re stepping into a model that works.
For our employees, we’re offering franchise opportunities at a significantly reduced cost. Why? Because they already know the business. They already live our values. And because real leadership isn’t about holding the door open—it’s about handing someone the keys.
I believe the future of small businesses is local ownership backed by proven systems. Pied Piper was built on that belief, and our franchise model extends it to the next generation of entrepreneurs.
