Who are we? A Company
History
Maid to Perfection®
is a cleaning service franchisor based in
Hagerstown, Maryland. They began in 1980 as
an unincorporated business under the name Midy
Tidy, and incorporated in 1983. In 1990 Midy Tidy
merged to form Maid to Perfection®, and they began
franchising under that name. As of May 2006
MTP had awarded 275 franchise units in 22 states. Maid to Perfection® has a regional office in St. Louis that serves Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma.
Most of our serious competitors in the
maid service franchise industry also began in
business around 1980 and immediately set about
creating, developing and selling franchises. We
opted instead to spend more time in research and
development, due to the profound changes in the
rapidly expanding residential cleaning market.
Diversity became a necessity as we began to
examine the other systems, and develop our unique
mix of options for consumers. However, they had a
ten year head start on us. Now, thirteen years later,
we are the "player" to watch. The April
1999 issue of Success Magazine ranked Maid to
Perfection #1 for franchisee support and satisfaction. Our support remains strong to this day.
One of the factors to which we attribute our
success, and that sets us apart from most
franchise systems in any industry, is our
steadfast commitment to servicing team partners -
our franchisees. They know that from 9am to 5pm (CST),
Monday thru Friday, we answer the phones
personally to keep their concerns and questions
on the "front burner". This commitment
to communications is a major reason why we don't claim we're
the best, our franchisees do!
