There are several distinct advantages to being part of a large plumbing company with a national footprint. Additional resources and support, nationwide relationships, and more time to focus on growing your business are all great things to expect from joining the P3 family.
1. The Financial & Logistical Support of a Well-Resourced Parent Company
When you bring your company under the umbrella of a large parent company, you’ll have access to their existing support infrastructure.
In addition to increased funding, parent companies provide a variety of other resources to their subsidiaries. You’ll be able to take advantage of their relationships with suppliers and access the latest technology.
Parent companies have established processes and systems they can apply to their subsidiaries to support operations, training, human resources, marketing, sales, and much more.
2. Access to Nationwide Relationships with Commercial Customers
If your company works in the commercial construction industry, being part of a larger organization can help bring in more jobs.
Parent companies with a national footprint have relationships with building owners and general contractors across the country, and will establish their subsidiaries as providers of choice. Once they complete a job in one market, owners and GCs are more likely to hire them to work in other markets as well.
3. Affiliation with a Nationwide Family of Peers at Other Leading Companies
One of the hardest parts of being a business owner is leading your company by yourself. When you come under the umbrella of a large company, you’ll join a family of other presidents and CEOs from companies across the country who share your experiences.
Being part of this peer group provides added support, networking opportunities, and the chance to share knowledge and insights within a community with a shared purpose.
4. Technological & Logistical Support for Technician Recruiting
Especially with the shrinking construction workforce, it’s harder than every to recruit new technicians. With national support, you’ll have access to the recruitment tools and techniques that are company-wide best practices.
You’ll also be able to offer your employees more support, such as better benefits, regular training sessions, and the career advancement opportunities that come with being part of a larger organization.
5. The Ability to Focus on Growing Your Core Business
Business owners have a lot on their plates and often get caught up in tasks that have to be done but aren’t the best use of their time. Scaling your business to its potential is difficult without enough support.
By joining a national company, you’ll have additional operational support and resources that will allow you focus more on what matters most: growing your business.
6. The Energy of a Continually Growing National Organization
If you feel like your business has become stagnate or grown as large as it can without additional support, joining a nationwide company can take it to the next level. Their momentum, strategy for the future, and passion for continued growth will be applied to your own company.
Join the P3 Family
It’s understandable that business owners often have reservations about becoming a subsidiary of a nationwide parent company. They’re concerned about job security for their employees, their brand’s previously established reputation in their market, and how much control they’ll have to relinquish.
That’s why it’s important to join the right company, one that treats company owners like partners and technicians like part of a nationwide family.
