After 30 years in public service, Julie Handzo didn't expect to become a rookie again, but that's exactly what happened when she and her family took over a Mosquito Squad Plus franchise.

The opportunity came together quickly, and Handzo built the business with her daughter and her daughter's fiancé as co-owners.

Handzo doubled the customer base in her first year, an achievement recognized with The Rookie of the Year award from Mosquito Squad Plus.

Her approach: lean on the team, lean on franchisor support, and don't skip the fundamentals. She even put on a technician's backpack and resprayed a property herself just to understand the job.

"I only see that potential because the Mosquito Squad Plus team is there showing us every day," she said.

Julie's recent feature on 1851 Franchise is a strong example of what's possible for candidates coming from outside the industry, with the right support system behind them.
