ANAGO OF WESTERN PA TO PARTICIPATE IN FRANCHISE AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES EXPO.

                    

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

, USA – July 20, 2011 –  Anago of Western PA has partnered with National Event Management to participate in the 2011 Pittsburgh Franchise and Business Opportunities Expo.

The Franchise and Business Opportunities Expo invites consumers wanting to start their own business to attend this exciting, upcoming two-day event! This event is perfect for exploring the option of self-employment. Buying a Franchise means you are in business for yourself … but not by yourself. Owning a Franchise means you own a proven business concept, and have the support you need to be successful! Franchising covers many industries that are considered 'Recession-Proof' - these opportunities are great investments in any economy! Take control of your financial future – invest in yourself!¹

 “Owning a franchise in the Janitorial Services industry may not have the same appeal as other business opportunities out there,” according to Anago of Western PA President David Ross, “but if someone is looking to start a business with a low initial investment, low overhead and plenty of opportunities to generate revenue, we can certainly provide that for them.”

The 2011 Pittsburgh Franchise and Business Opportunities Expo will be held on September 24^th and 25^th at the Monroeville Convention Center.  Visitors can print a free admission coupon by clicking here, or following the link on the Anago of Western PA Web Site.

The Anago Story

FROM A STREET CORNER TO BUSINESS OWNERSHIP: One Anago Franchisee’s Path to Success

Pompano Beach, Florida, USA - April 22, 2011 - To Shelly Hernandez, it seems like a lifetime ago that she was standing on a street corner in Tulsa, Oklahoma holding a pizza-shaped sign for a local restaurant. Through cold winters and hot summers, the dream of controlling her own destiny kept her going.

Shelly’s sister, Marta, decided to buy an Anago Cleaning Systems franchise, and Shelly began working with her to make some extra money. She watched asMarta’s franchise continued to grow. She did all she could with her sister and eventually saved enough money from her pizza job to buy her very own Anago franchise! Her dream had become a reality. Shelly would be her own boss and would no longer have to work for anyone else. Her three daughters, she thought, would finally have the life she had dreamed for them.

With Anago’s comprehensive orientation program, Shelly quickly learned not only efficient cleaning techniques, but also the importance of good service and communication with all her clients. She also learned how to manage her own business and her employees. “Owning my Anago franchise has allowed me to set my own hours, and be my own boss. My self-esteem has improved significantly,” she says.

Shelly set high expectations for herself and her employees. Her Anago franchise has grown significantly, and her clients are extremely pleased with the service she provides them. Since she purchased her franchise in January 2010, she has never lost a single client! She started small, and is now managing two crews to clean all the accounts she services. She can hardly believe the success she enjoys now. “From holding up a sign on a street corner, to owning my own Anago business – I can never express enough how Anago has changed my life. I am here to stay!” Brett Drumm, Master Owner of Anago of Tulsa adds “Shelly is such a great example of an American small business owner, exemplifying how hard work, perseverance, and the will to succeed pay off!”

There are over 30 Anago Cleaning Systems regional offices nationwide, with over 2,000 Franchisees enjoying the benefits of business ownership, just like Shelly Hernandez. Anago provides the backing and support of an established company to give aspiring business owners the foundation to succeed in this thriving industry.

Entrepreneur Magazine has ranked Anago, for the second year in a row, as the 5th Fastest Growing Franchise in the US for 2011. Anago has also been recognized by the National Minority Franchising Initiative for exceptional minority participation. Franchise Business Review named Anago as a top franchise in Franchisee Satisfaction for 2011.
