Company Profile
Your company’s profile is the space we’ve reserved for you to tell Five Star Rated users all about your business—the services and products you offer, warranties that you honor, when your company started, how many employees you have, how many customers you have served, awards you’ve received, certifications, and any other distinctions that you’ve earned.
At Five Star Rated, we differentiate ourselves from advertising organizations by providing homeowners with only verifiable research and facts. If you include any factual claims in your profile—awards, certifications, memberships, etc.—they must be accompanied by verification before the information can be printed.
For more information about how company profiles are formatted and what we can and cannot print, please see our Profile Rules & Regulations.
Profile Sections
Please note that all sections of the profile are required.
Company Commentary
- The company commentary space is reserved for you to talk about your company in your own words. We encourage you to use this opportunity to discuss your company philosophy, the way you do business, or any other feature that you believe makes your business great or sets you apart.
Products & Services Provided
- This section should include the services your company offers that are related to the category under which your company is listed in our publication.
- This section may also include products and brands that your company offers or uses.
Warranties & Guarantees
- This section is for listing any warranties you offer for your services.
Owners & Key Managers
- This section should list no more than four owners or key managers in the company (or the local branch, if your company is a franchise location).
- Titles should pertain specifically to the person’s position within the company, e.g., CEO, President, Vice President, General Manager, etc.
Company Profile
- This section is made up of three pieces of information: year established, number of employees, and homeowners served.
- Year established: This should reflect the year your business started.
- Company History: This field typically includes information about the number of employees, the approximate number of homeowners served, and/or whether the company is local, family owned, or part a franchise.
- The information in the Company Profile section should specifically apply to the specific location listed in the FSR book if your company is a franchise location.
Insurance
- This field will contain one of two options:
- General Liability
- General Liability & Workers’ Compensation
- We verify insurance yearly, and your profile will display the option that applies to your company.
- Texas companies are exempt from workers’ compensation insurance.
Awards & Memberships
- This field includes awards, memberships, certifications, and other distinctions that apply to your company.
- When you request an award or membership for inclusion in your profile, please provide documentation for our fact checking records.
