TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pillar To Post, North America's largest home inspection company, recently hosted its annual Brand Conference in Tucson, Arizona, celebrating franchise business owner achievements, unveiling new marketing initiatives, and introducing a digital tool designed to enhance communication between homeowners, real estate professionals, and inspectors.
Recognizing Excellence: 2025 Franchise Awards
A highlight of the event was the recognition of outstanding franchise business owners who exemplify excellence in customer service, business growth, and industry leadership. Among the top honorees were:
- Franchise Business Owners of the Year:Marco and Melanie Miranda of New Haven County, CT. The husband-and-wife team achieved over $2 million in sales and led the system with the highest Average Job Size (AJS).
- Rookie of the Year:Matt Ruggieri of Western Pennsylvania. In his first year as a Pillar To Post inspector, the former Army infantryman had the highest total sales during a 12-month period for first year business owners, quickly establishing himself in the Pittsburgh market and surrounding counties.
"I'm extremely humbled and honored to be recognized as the Rookie of the Year in our franchise," said Ruggieri. "I followed who came before me and was set up for success with a strong family and franchise support system, and a dedicated team to establish ourselves in our communities. I'm excited to grow further beyond Year 1."
The company also honored franchise owners who have reached key lifetime inspection benchmarks, ranging from 1,000 to 35,000 completed inspections. Sales Achievement Awards were also awarded to the top-performing franchise owners who demonstrated exceptional business growth and success over the past year.
Strengthening Franchise Owner Success with New Marketing Initiatives
This year's conference also introduced Vice President of Marketing Becky Beyerto its franchise system, who joined Pillar To Post in late 2024. With extensive experience in franchise marketing, Beyer is spearheading new initiatives aimed at supporting franchise business owners in local markets. Her approach includes enhanced digital marketing strategies, new branding tools, and data-driven solutions to help franchise business owners maximize their reach and engagement with real estate professionals and homeowners.
"Our job is to give our franchise owners the best tools to grow their business and make a lasting impact in their communities," said Beyer. "With our enhanced marketing strategies and the Executive Model, we're creating new opportunities for them to stand out in their markets, build strong relationships, and drive success. This isn't just about growing the brand—it's about making sure they have everything you need to thrive in an ever-changing real estate landscape."
