Casey noted why Criterium Engineers was a good fit for him:
The biggest appeal for me—with an engineering franchise—is that you skip a few years in the business startup process, compared to taking a very long time to build everything from scratch.
With a franchise, the systems are in place—and you are ready before you open for business. You may start up and become a functioning office as quickly as you want to be up and running.
On the other hand, starting from scratch—that takes a very long time. The metaphor I use is meticulously taking a rope ladder down a cliff compared to diving from the top!
With Criterium, you have instant access to a well-established brand, everything from your business card to your website is professionally designed and branded for you.
There’s liability insurance, standard terms outlined for agreements, and a variety of proposal templates to work with. You also have access to a team of experienced professionals. For example, you learn how to do marketing and what happens at the back end to help you be successful with your business.
Criterium truly showed me how to dot my i’s and cross my t’s and be confident in my business venture.
