About This Video
This Mr. Electric video features Kevin Domingue, a multi-unit owner of Mr. Electric of Northwest Houston, Mr. Electric of Katy, and Mr. Electric of Houston Midtown. The testimonial walks through Kevin's pivot from Fortune 500 corporate work into franchise ownership and what the system has delivered in his first two years. The candidate-fit story sets up the pitch. Kevin is a former Marine — once a Marine, always a Marine, in his framing — who spent years working for major Fortune 500 corporations before reaching the limit of what corporate environments could offer him. He resigned from his job, putting himself in a position where he had to move forward on his own. Working for himself was the logical path. He started looking online, found a Mr. Electric franchise for sale, was accepted into the system, and ninety days later owned the unit. The Neighborly support depth is what most exceeded his expectations. Kevin describes having no idea how deep the Neighborly support system actually was before joining — the resources available to him cut significant time from his learning curve. Rather than reinvent the wheel on operations, marketing, and back-office systems, he can ask the Neighborly support team and get a fast answer. On the front-end of marketing, Mr. Electric is positioning his units on the leading edge of residential and commercial electrical services, including lighting and lighting-controls product categories that are evolving rapidly. The recognition outcome closes the testimonial. Kevin's units recently won a Rookie of the Year award, and his framing of the success is people-first: at this stage of his career, success is about helping others — fulfilling employees' dreams, watching them thrive, and seeing them grow under what the team has built. Neighborly, in his view, has afforded him that opportunity. For a prospect on franchisedirect.com weighing Mr. Electric against other electrical-services franchise opportunities, Kevin's testimonial is the multi-unit model in action.
