Green Home Solutions Franchise

History

After selling his 450-store Wireless Zone franchise in 2012, Our founder, Russ Weldon sought another ground floor opportunity in an emerging, yet commercially marketable space. One of the opportunities that caught his attention was the need for environmentally-preferred products to improve indoor air quality. Russ formed Green Home Solutions realizing that if he could run the company as a “Green” service business, he could recreate what had happened with wireless technology.

“It was clear to me that the green products and services industry was just beginning to move into the mainstream,” Russ said. “It reminded me exactly of where wireless phones were in the late 1980s. I saw it as another of those rare opportunities to get in on the ground floor of a yet-to-be tapped industry and have a major impact on shaping that industry as well.”

It didn’t take long, however, for Russ to realize that this was much more than just another business opportunity. “Even though it was another franchise concept in its infancy, what I didn’t anticipate was how different it was from what I had been doing,” he said. “Here, at Green Home Solutions, we are talking about much more than how to create a successful business in an emerging category. We are talking about how to save the planet. We are talking about how the work we are doing is something that our kids and our grandkids will benefit from.”

“Here we have indoor solutions that can really change someone’s quality of life by removing mold and allergens from the air.” In the process, he knows that Green Home Solutions is creating opportunities for others to follow in his entrepreneurial footsteps. “What I like about franchising is seeing others have a chance to become successful business owners,” Russ said. “And in this case, we are also doing something that is making our world a better place to live.”

“As we grow, my vision for Green Home Solutions is to have environmentally-conscious inventors and scientists coming to us because we have the established distribution platform, and more importantly, the reputation for delivering green products and services to consumers everywhere. Then we can bring people more and more comprehensive green offerings to reduce harmful options currently being used. The more products and services we offer, the more good we are doing.”
