Why WOW Windowboxes Franchises are a Smart Franchise Investment
The WOW Windowboxes franchise isn’t just about plants—it’s about profit, passion, and franchise ownership with purpose. Founded by Bret Schneider and built on a foundation of operational excellence and customer satisfaction, this is a franchise opportunity designed for business owners alike—whether they’re hands-on creatives, sales-driven entrepreneurs, or managers seeking semi-absentee ownership.
The franchise model capitalizes on a proven business model that has been refined over more than a decade. This proven business model boasts high margins, minimal staffing requirements, a rapid ramp up time, and a path to achieve operational readiness with full support from the franchisor. With wide open territory availability, franchisees can select prime markets and grow quickly—delivering a high-demand service in a market where franchise ownership is still rare. It is important to note that WOW Windowboxes franchises are offered only through a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) and are subject to specific state regulations. Any advertisement does not constitute an official offering, and prospective franchisees must be informed of their rights under applicable franchise laws before any sale occurs.
The WOW franchise model is also a scalable franchise concept, allowing franchisees to grow with demand and expand services without the complexity of traditional landscaping businesses. Every detail has been optimized—from sourcing durable, maintenance-free materials to delivering seasonal plantings and automatic drip irrigation systems—ensuring consistent quality and consistent revenue opportunities.
The Franchise Model
Our franchise model is built for simplicity and scalability, with low startup requirements that enable franchisees to launch their business without hiring employees, renting space, or investing in a large inventory. Franchisees can choose to be hands-on owner-operators or hire a small team to manage daily tasks. Our community-driven marketing approach allows franchisees to grow their business by supporting local events and connecting with new people. With a year-round business model that provides steady, predictable income, WOW Windowboxes is an attractive opportunity for entrepreneurs looking for a fulfilling business venture.
Meet the Founder
Bret Schneider, the founder of WOW Windowboxes, was inspired to start the business by his mother, who wanted beautiful windowboxes for their house but found them too expensive. Bret joined the business in 2009 and perfected the model through trial and error. With a passion for delivering exceptional results and creating beauty, Bret has built a successful business that is now expanding through franchising. As a franchise development company, REP’M Group is partnering with WOW Windowboxes to provide expert guidance and support to franchisees.
