Women Leading the Electrician Industry
July 1, 2022
Women in the trade fields might seem scarce but throughout the years, and the years to come, they are growing in numbers joining the 390.7 billion U.S. dollars industry.
1 and 10 people working in this industry are female, which is expected to grow by over 8% in the next decade. With this more women are also pursuing franchising when opening their businesses.
In 2020, 41% of every person who opened a franchise in the past year was a women-owned business. This represents women’s progress in entrepreneurship, which Mister Sparky promotes by being a part of the DiversityFran Program that gives $5,000 off the initial franchise fee to any woman who wants to own a franchise.
Mister Sparky appeals to women who want to franchise specifically in the trades because it offers:
An endless network of supporting business owners
When franchising, especially with Mister Sparky, owners get the benefit of networking with many other electrical service business owners across the country, all of whom have faced similar challenges and have the answers to solving similar problems. For that reason, our peer-to-peer network is one of the single strongest advantages of owning a Mister Sparky franchise.
