Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about starting your service business with Azgari.
Before You Decide
Business outcomes depend on three things: our proven framework (we own this), market conditions (nobody controls this), and your involvement as an owner (you own this). We can’t guarantee you won’t face challenges — but you won’t face them alone. Our done-for-you build includes a launch guarantee with continued support if we miss the timeline, plus 12 months of ongoing support after launch.
Yes — that’s the whole point. We build the business for you, including hiring and training your team and placing a manager. Your time commitment is roughly 1 hour per week for oversight. Most of our clients keep their full-time jobs while we build, then decide later whether to transition.
You don’t need experience in the specific business we build for you. Our team handles business model selection, entity formation, branding, marketing systems, hiring, and operations. We’ve built businesses for corporate professionals, veterans, trades workers, and career changers — all with different backgrounds.
Franchises give you a brand but take 3–8% in royalties forever and control how you run your business. With Azgari, we build your business from scratch and you own 100% — the brand, the systems, the customers, everything. No ongoing fees, no restrictions, no royalty payments. You keep every dollar you earn, and you can sell the business whenever you want — on your terms.
About Azgari
We’re a done-for-you business building firm. We help professionals launch local service businesses by building the entire operation for them — entity, brand, marketing, team, customers, and operations. Founded by serial entrepreneur Azgari Lipshy, we’re an alternative to franchises: you get a fully built business without franchise fees or royalties.
No. You maintain 100% ownership and control of your business. We build it for you, but you own everything — the brand, the entity, the customer relationships, and all systems. There are no royalties, no territory restrictions, and no ongoing fees.
No. We help you prepare for SBA financing through our funding concierge service included in the program. All lending decisions are made by independent SBA lenders. We ensure your business plan, financials, and documentation are lender-ready.
Investment & What’s Included
Everything needed to build a fully operational service business you own 100%. That includes: data-driven business model selection from 50+ proven models, complete entity formation and compliance, full brand buildout (name, logo, website, marketing systems), B2B contract acquisition through our inside sales team so you have signed accounts before launch, a full operational team hired and trained, a manager placed to run day-to-day operations, SBA funding concierge if needed, and 12 months of ongoing support.
Yes. Payment plans and SBA funding paths are available. We’ll discuss the options that work best for your situation during the strategy call.
Your business will be operational with a manager in place within 180 days, or we continue building at no additional cost until it is. Your business results still depend on market conditions, the business model selected, and your involvement as an owner — we’re transparent about that.
Business Types We Work With
We build B2B service businesses that win contracts with other businesses — not retail or walk-in models. Examples include commercial cleaning, commercial pressure washing, commercial HVAC, pest control (commercial accounts), staffing and recruiting agencies, fractional C-suite consulting, IT services, bookkeeping, and business consulting. At the $50K tier, your business sells to other businesses through our inside sales model: our team builds relationships remotely, and you’re the face who meets decision-makers and signs the contract. We match the right model to your skills, capital, and market from our library of 50+ proven models.
Absolutely. We’ve built recruiting firms, fractional CFO and COO practices, HR consulting businesses, and other professional service companies for clients. The same done-for-you framework applies: we select the model, build the systems, land the contracts through inside sales, and put the team in place. The difference is startup costs are often lower and margins can be higher with professional services.
Through inside sales. Our team builds relationships with businesses in your market remotely — prospecting, outreach, follow-up, and qualifying leads. When a prospect is ready, you’re the face who meets the decision-maker and signs the contract. This is how B2B service businesses work: relationships first, then contracts. You don’t need to cold call or run ads to homeowners. Our inside sales model handles the pipeline so you can focus on closing and oversight.
No. We build the entire business for you, including training your team on the business model and operations. Many of our clients come from completely different backgrounds — corporate professionals, veterans, and career changers. Your role is ownership oversight, not day-to-day operations.
The done-for-you business build is $50,000, with payment plans and SBA funding paths available. Some business models also require working capital beyond the build fee, depending on the type of business (equipment, vehicles, etc.). We’ll help you match your available capital to the right model during our discovery process.
Results & Expectations
We guarantee your business will be operational with a manager in place within 180 days, or we continue building at no additional cost. Your actual business results — revenue, profit, growth — depend on the business model, market conditions, and your involvement as an owner. We do not guarantee any specific level of income or business success.
Our target is 180 days from kickoff to having an operational business with a manager in seat and contracts paying. The exact timeline depends on the business model, licensing requirements, hiring market, and other factors specific to your build.
You own 100% of your business and all the systems we built. The program includes 12 months of ongoing support after launch. Your manager handles day-to-day operations while you provide oversight — roughly 1 hour per week. Many clients use the framework to build additional businesses.
