Two Men and A Truck

Francey Beall

Dallas, TX – Ever the pioneer, Francey Beall and her partners opened the very first Two Men and A Truck franchise in Dallas, TX back in 1995. Since then several more have opened in the area but Francey’s business has continued to grow. Each partner is responsible for a certain segment of the business which allows them to devote and focus their full time and attention to marketing, operations, financial and human resources. The model seems to be working well! More information about the franchise follows but if you find yourself needing the services of a local mover with experience and a long history of A+ customer service, give Francey Beall a call at 972-479-1995.

The following was borrowed directly from the Two Men and A Truck official website:

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® was officially founded in 1985 in Lansing, Mich., by Mary Ellen Sheets. Operations began prior to that year when Sheets’ sons, Jon and Brig Sorber, did local moving as a way to earn money while in high school. When they left for college, calls for service continued. In 1985, Sheets formally organized the company, hired movers, and developed a reproducible system. Franchising began in 1989. In 1994, Sheets’ daughter, Melanie Bergeron, assumed the position of president. Now, Melanie is the chair of the board. Brig Sorber is president and CEO. Jon Sorber serves as executive vice president.

Training is extensive and ongoing. It begins with an initial three-month period, including comprehensive classroom training at STICK MEN UNIVERSITY® (a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to moving in Lansing, Mich.) and thorough assistance during the franchise set-up and opening. There are also ongoing monthly training sessions at STICK MEN UNIVERSITY® for franchisees and employees. There are many other tools available to franchisees including detailed monthly reports, newsletters, Intranet, annual meetings, a resource library, a toll-free support line, a tradeshow booth, an in-house shop with a complete line of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® branded clothing and professional marketing materials and a system-wide purchasing system.

There are more than 200 locations operating worldwide. Locations are in 32 states, Canada and Ireland. There will soon be locations in the United Kingdom.
