ASP Opens New Swimming Pool Franchise Location
June 1, 2015
Austin, Texas Location Scheduled to Launch November 1
MACON, Georgia–ASP – America’s Swimming Pool Franchise Company is excited to announce the opening of another pool cleaning franchise in Austin, Texas. Owner/Operator John Glode comes from a service business background and is excited about the opportunity with ASP.
“ASP is different from other swimming pool cleaning franchises because of the training and support system,” said John Glode, newest franchise owner in the ASP family. “Like anything, it’s a business where if you don’t know what you’re doing it will show quickly. A national provider that has it together, provides support and knows how the industry works, that’s what will differentiate you from everyone else.”
ASP began offering swimming pool cleaning franchise opportunities in 2005. The industry was then fragmented with a reliable swimming pool cleaning and maintenance team hard to come by. Since then, ASP has risen to the top by providing high-quality pool service, dependable customer service and competitive pricing. Their goal of coast-to-coast expansion is becoming more of a reality with each franchise location opened.
“We are excited to welcome John and his team to the ASP franchise family,” said Stewart Vernon, CEO and founder of ASP. “John’s background in the service industry, previous sales experience and hard work ethic paired with our franchise system is a recipe for success.”
Glode earned his Bachelor’s degree in business and economics from the College at St. Thomas in Minnesota before continuing his education and obtaining his law degree from Creighton University. He and his wife, Angela have been married for 17 years, have three kids and enjoy spending time as a family in a variety of activities.
