Serving Others: 6 Great Small Business Franchises For Natural Helpers
Housewarmers
This is the home based business designed for the naturally hospitable. If you enjoy making people feel welcome and introducing them to town, you are just the person to pass out Housewarmer gift bags. Yes, that is what this business is built on: welcome bags. Connecting with local merchants (called "sponsors") franchisees collect coupons, merchandise, and business listings from around town to deliver to newcomers to the area. Simultaneously, they help new neighbors learn where to find the products and services they need and expand the sponsors’ client bases, boosting the local economy. And all the while, new neighbors are welcomed and made to feel a part of the neighborhood.
Cruise Planners LLC
There are a lot of things that many people need help with, and one of them is how to plan a great vacation without incurring the heavy stress or pitfalls of doing it yourself. This is where a helpful Cruise Planners LLC franchisee comes into the picture, taking the burden of finding the perfect cruise destination, planning all the details, and providing clients the benefit of simply getting on the boat and reaping the rewards of a well planned getaway. The whole purpose of going on vacation is to get away from the anxieties of life for awhile, so having a vacation planner to take on the job of travel planning is a huge help.
Tutor Doctor
Not exactly a work at home franchise, this business puts its helpful franchisees in the homes of their clients, helping students reach their educational goals on their own home turf, where they can feel the most calm and confident. What this business strives to do is make learning as natural, accessible, and easy as possible. Catering to the strengths of every student they serve, Tutor Doctor franchisees adapt their methods to fit whomever they work with, attempting to make the tutoring experience fun instead of laborious. And they work one-on-one, so each student gets complete attention; no one falls through the cracks.
Pillar To Post
Buying a home can be one of the most trying experiences of a person’s life, but it does not necessarily need to be. Much of the anxiety can be relieved by having the right kind of home inspector to honestly tell if the home is in the condition that it should be. Pillar To Post has been rated the #1 home inspection franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine for 6 consecutive years. If you want to help people avoid the costly mistake of purchasing the wrong house, this is the best franchise opportunity available to you, providing all the training you will need.
Physicians Weight Loss Centers
Obesity is one of the biggest medical issues in our society; something that millions of people deal with every day, believing they are incapable of overcoming it. Physicians Weight Loss Centers franchisees help change that. By providing more medically extreme solutions than most other weight loss centers can, more people are given the tools and encouragement they need to fight the battle of losing weight. And best of all, franchisees do not have to be physicians to take on a franchise; the medical staff is already built, and the franchisee merely serves as the doorway to what they can offer each client.
Right At Home
Finally, this work from home franchise business specializes in helping the elderly, and they do so in two ways. Many older folks that need assistance would prefer to retain their freedom, living in their own homes. Right At Home continues to make that possible for them by connecting elderly clients with in-home personal care professionals who can help them with all of the everyday tasks that can often present them with real difficulty. In the case of those who have already moved out of their home and into a care facility, Right At Home franchisees also provide such facilities with the non-medical staffing that they need. In all ways, this franchise is about aiding the elderly and not leaving them in isolation.
Sometimes it seems like the people who desire to help the people around them are few and far between, but such a person in the right kind of business can the perfect thing for someone in need. With any of these service-based opportunities, you could very well become that helpful businessman that everyone knows, appreciates, and refers people to, allowing you to serve others while achieving great financial success in your business.

There are at least a dozen reasons most people have for starting a small business franchise, but some people get into business for themselves, simply because they want to help other people. Ultimately, every business helps its clients in one way or another, but not every business owner is single-mindedly focused on serving, rather than simply turning a profit. If you are just such an entrepreneur, with a mind to help in any way possible, here are some business opportunities that will put you in just the place you want to be.
