It’s a good franchise from what I can gather, with so many franchises available now, going with a grand like this can give a great trust level for the franchisee that the business is sound.

Aerus Electrolux Expert Review by Brian Garvin and Jeff West
Medical research is always finding new causes for allergies and it is probably not surprising that household dust and dander from pets and humans alike is one of the leading causes. In an effort to curtail some of these symptoms, many companies are trying to produce products that help lower the presence of these allergens in the air. One of those companies is Aerus Electrolux.
If the name Electrolux sounds familiar, it should. The company was founded in 1924 under the name of Electrolux. The owner, Gustaf Sahlin, had revolutionized the vacuum cleaner, introducing the United States to the tank vacuum. IN the 1950’s the company created the carpet shampooer for consumers to use.
Over eighty years Aerus Electrolux has been producing products that helped eliminate allergens of any sort in the home. Now the company is based out of Dallas, Texas, with over 500 independently owned franchises across the United States and Canada. They offer a twenty-five year warranty on their Guardian True HEPA Vacuum, and are members of the Direct Selling Association.
Aerus Electrolux‘s product line includes vacuum cleaners, air purification systems, allergy control, and bags and accessories to go will all of their main products. Their vacuum cleaners are still the most well known products produced and sold by the company. Unlike their previous models, the vacuums carry air filtration systems to help cut down on dirt and debris. They come in canister models, uprights, central vacuums, and cleaners/polishers.
The air purification systems sold by the company uses a HEPA filter that removes almost a hundred percent of dirt and debris that are 0.1 microns and larger. The Guardian Air purifier has been rated as one of the highest rated purifiers and has been recognized by the FDA as a Class II Medical Device.
The allergy control products are cleaners designed to destroy dust mites and odour causing bacteria, and the company sells parts for all of their lines, including some that go back sixty years. All of the products have guarantees and if the customer desires, can be inspected every five years to keep the warranties in force.
These products are sold through an authorized sales representative for franchise distributor. They have a strict criterion each one of them must meet that includes management ability, financial conditions, and integrity. Anyone interested in becoming a franchise seller must have between $10,000.00 and $30,000.00 for an associate franchise and $50,000.00 and $30,000.00 for a full franchise.
Financing is available for qualified Aerus Electrolux applicants. The company also offers five levels of training for people interested in becoming a salesperson through an already established franchise. While not a pyramid scheme type selling business, working for an Aerus Electrolux franchise would require some door to door selling to help generate additional leads.
While this is a good business idea, Aerus Electrolux is not necessarily the best for a home-selling business if the potential sales person is financially challenged. While the company does provide the training, there is no information available regarding how a consultant would get supplies or work on contacts. As a matter of fact, the seller does not see any form of compensation until they reach the second level. This is not a business to go into lightly and anyone serious about selling this product would be better to apply for a franchise store than sell it door to door.

It’s not a good idea for a home-based business because it’s not a mlm, it’s a franchise. You purchase a retail location and you hire or contract with reps in your area to sell. Seems like that basic information should have been researched before writing the article. Or at least contacting corporate to find out the structure. Just a thought.
