Partnership & franchising
Build your own Helper territory

What you get
A complete business in a box
Franchise partners launch with everything configured — not a logo and good luck.

Scheduling, quoting, invoicing and payroll configured on day one.
Hiring & training
Recruitment scripts, checklists and the same helper certification we use.

Pricing models, marketing calendars and KPI dashboards.

No office required
You don't need premises, staff or software
Head office does all the administration. A partner runs their territory from a phone and a laptop — and waits for clients to arrive through our central funnel.
We handle all of this
- Quote intake, pricing review and the emailed final price
- Booking calendar, confirmations, reminders and client notifications
- Payments, recurring billing, receipts and refunds
- Website, brand, local landing pages and geo-targeted ad templates
- Operations & training manual, recruitment scripts and certification path
- Monthly KPI aggregation, branded reports and performance reviews
- Client support inbox, 24/7 email coverage
You handle this
- Recruit and certify helpers in your territory
- Deliver cleans to the published Helper checklists
- Keep quality high with spot checks and client follow-ups
- Submit your monthly KPI report on time
No storefront. No lease. No reception desk. No software to buy or configure — every system you see on this website is already built and included.
Where we're expanding
Territories open in every Canadian province and territory — and worldwide
From Prince George and Vancouver to Calgary, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montréal, Halifax, Whitehorse and Iqaluit — every province, city and town in Canada is open to application, along with international master licences outside Canada.
Smaller town, rural region or a country outside Canada? Apply anyway — we open new territories and international master licences wherever a strong partner applies.

Books & payroll
Your accounting workspace is part of the package
Partners get the same bookkeeping and payroll tools head office runs on — no separate subscription to buy on day one.
Ledger & categories
Record income and expenses by category, with GST/PST tracked as you go.
Bank statement imports
Bring in CSV, OFX or QFX statements from any Canadian bank and match them to entries.
Payroll runs
Build pay runs with hours, rates and planning estimates for deductions, then mark them approved and paid.
Accountant access
Give your bookkeeper their own accounting-only login — books and payroll, no client or dispatch data.
Deduction figures are planning estimates only — confirm CPP, EI and tax amounts with CRA or your accountant before remitting. Open the accounting workspace (partners, admins and accountants).
From the founders
What partners actually get from us
“We built every checklist, script and dashboard on real Prince George jobs first. Nothing goes into the partner manual until it has survived a full season of our own crews using it.”
“Partners get the boring parts done for them — quoting, invoicing, payroll math, KPI tracking — so their week is spent on hiring good people and keeping clients happy.”
“Your territory map, launch campaign and first recruitment round are prepared with you before opening day, and we stay on a monthly call after launch.”
