About the Opportunity
At Jim’s Pool Care, you’re not just buying a business – you’re buying into a brand that 94% of Australians already recognise. That kind of trust means you start with strong lead-generation power and a higher conversion rate from day one.
This is a genuine owner-operator franchise giving you the chance to build your own business under the Jim’s name. You purchase a territory – your own marketing area – and while initially you’ll be hands-on, you have full scope to expand into multiple vans, staff and a larger team as you grow.
The business model includes both regular pool/spa service & maintenance and a retail component of selling and installing quality pool equipment – with none of the high overheads of a traditional pool shop since you operate from home.
We believe in lifestyle: early on you’ll be busy building your business, but as you establish your base you’ll unlock flexibility to spend more time with family, attend your children’s school or sports events, and enjoy the freedom of business ownership.
With the purchase price you also join a network of 150+ seasoned franchisees and technicians who share knowledge, support and camaraderie. You become part of a community of like-minded entrepreneurs.
You’re buying an asset with unlimited growth potential. There’s no income-percentage fee structure – just one flat monthly fee (plus lead fees) which covers your marketing fund and brand support. That means when you grow your business, you keep more of what you earn.
The investment: $79,000 (greenfield territory) which includes the franchise rights (20 years. ZERO cost to renew upon approval from Regional Franchisor Walk away at any time with 14 days notice (subject to non-compete).
Territory can be split and resold, customers can be sold for additional earnings potential.) plus the start-up kit (chemicals, equipment, accounting software, signage, training valued at $32,500) – a true “business in a box”. Additional costs: white van or ute (≤5 years old) and your travel to Melbourne for mandatory Jim’s Group training.
New franchisees must pass a police and credit check and hold a valid white card. If preferred, you can also step into a “split business” option where you purchase a territory with existing clients – a faster path to income for an extra small investment.
Ready to take the next step? Submit an inquiry form and we strongly encourage a “Day on the Road” with a local franchisee or franchisor to experience firsthand if this opportunity suits you.
