Jerry "JDog" Flanagan: Empowering Veterans as Franchisees of the JDog Junk Removal & Hauling and JDog Carpet Cleaning & Floor Care brands
Can a side hustle transform into a booming franchise system that creates jobs and business ownership for veterans? It can, and this episode of the Good Neighbor Podcast proves it still is happening every day when Jerry "JDog" Flanagan, the dynamic CEO and President of the JDog Junk Removal & Hauling, and JDog Carpet Cleaning & Floor Care brands visits the Good Neighbor Podcast Studio to sit down for an interview with host Bob Blaisse to share how he leveraged military values of respect, integrity and trust in 2012, to build JDog into a beloved brand of franchise services operated by veterans. Discover the heartwarming story behind the company's rapid growth and how Jerry's JDog brand has become a beacon of hope, providing job opportunities and business ownership for veterans of military service.
In this episode, Jerry details the evolution of JDog from a simple junk removal service to a diverse franchise system already in 30 states, which more recently added JDog Carpet Cleaning and Floor Care. Learn about the unique challenges Jerry faced during the COVID-19 pandemic and how this franchisor navigated those obstacles. Jerry also reveals the secrets behind his JDog's brand's flat royalty model that benefits franchisees more favorably than other franchise models, and the exciting expansion opportunities available to veterans in underserved regions like Oklahoma and California. This episode is a testament to Jerry's mission of service, including those who have served their country, and the incredible impact of the JDog community. Don't miss this uplifting and informative episode that will have you not only thanking Jerry "JDog" Flanagan for his military service, but also thanking Jerry for his service to fellow veterans!
