GET A GRIP Franchising, LLC Lauded in Three National Publications

Online, November 15, 2011 (Newswire.com) - GET A GRIP, Inc., a family-owned, national franchise company with headquarters in Albuquerque, is pleased to announce accolades from three national publications. Entrepreneur® Magazine once again recognizes GET A GRIP for our low-cost to enter, turnkey franchise business opportunity in its Start Ups Fall 2011 issue, and at #87 in its December 2011 issue of the Top 100 Low-Cost Franchises. The December 2011 issue of Home Business®, geared toward home-based entrepreneurs and business owners, lists GET A GRIP, Inc. in its Restoration & Remodeling category. Highlighted in both publications are GET A GRIP's innovative products and low-cost to enter, no experience necessary, turnkey business model.

"We're gratified to continue to be recognized by these distinguished publications for our patented resurfacing products and techniques, low start up costs and low franchise fee," says Sharon Dillard, CEO of GET A GRIP, Inc. "As the economy improves, resurfacing still makes more sense than replacement, so we think we'll rank even higher in 2012."

GET A GRIP franchises offer a home-based opportunity with low start up costs and franchise fee. The company's network of 30 franchises and dealers in 17 states around the country resurfaces laminate or cultured marble countertops with our Eurostone® design, repairs cracked fiberglass bathtubs, scratched or stained porcelain bathtubs, tile showers and enclosures. GET A GRIP's Get A Metallic™ coating creates spectacular results for countertops.

The company's latest product, Porcelain Glaze™, is an innovative, exclusive, high-performance coating system that returns porcelain tubs, sinks and showers to like new condition. Requiring no acid to prepare surfaces, Porcelain Glaze™ delivers better environmental friendliness, something other porcelain resurfacing products can't claim.
