Item 2.      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
       	     and Results of Operations

	 GENERAL :
	    The financial information for the periods ended July 31, 1996 and 1995
  included herein is unaudited but includes all adjustments which, in the
  opinion of management of the Company, are necessary to present fairly the
  financial position of the Company at July 31, 1996 and 1995, and the   
	 results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine month 
  periods then ended.
	    The Company operates in two principal business segments:  "Franchise
  Operations", which includes Initial Franchise Sales and Annuity Revenues
  (Service Fees, Product Sales, Royalties, and Marketing Fees), and "Company
  Operations", which includes the Company's Hygiene operations located in
  Charlotte, N.C., Jacksonville, FL., Space Coast, FL., Tulsa, OK., the 
  Company's residential maids operations located in the Charlotte, N.C. and
  Scottsdale, AZ. areas and the Company's Surface Doctor operations located
  in Atlanta, GA.  Subsidiaries are actively engaged in providing hygiene
  services, maid services and surface restoration services directly to 
  customers in the same manner as franchisees.
     On July 30, 1996, the Company entered into and closed an Asset Purchase
  Agreement with Professional Carpet Systems, Inc. ("PCS") and Old Dixie Supply 
  Company to acquire substantially all of the assets of an operating division of
  PCS known as Surface Doctor.  The purchase price paid for the assets consisted
  of 200,000 shares of the Company's restricted Common Stock, an Option to 
  purchase 75,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of
  $6.00 per share, and the assumption of approximately $82,000 in liabilities 
  relating to the Surface Doctor business.
     Surface Doctor has conducted business as a franchisor since November 1993
  and currently has approximately 106 domestic and 9 foreign franchisees which 
  provide kitchen and bath restoration services, particularly with respect to
  resurfacing appliances, counter tops and fixtures.  Franchisees provide such 
  services in designated markets to the apartments industry, hotels, other 
  commercial customers and homeowners.  Surface Doctor's revenues are derived 
  from franchise sales, royalty fees, marketing fees, and sales of supplies.


	 REVENUE :
 	   Revenues in the third quarter increased 34% to $2,795,466 as compared to
  prior year third quarter of $2,079,641.  The major factors in the overall
  increase are the continued growth in Annuity Revenues and the increase in
  Revenues from Company Owned Subsidiaries.

	   SEGMENT REVENUES:

      "Franchise Operations".  Annuity Revenues for the three month period ended
      July 31, 1996 increased 38% to $1,822,484 as compared to prior year
      third quarter results of $1,317,631.  Revenue derived from Initial
      Franchise Sales decreased by 56% as compared to prior year third quarter
      sales of $217,091.  During the month of July, there were six additional
      Surface Doctor franchises sold, bringing their total number of franchisees
      to 115.

	     "Company Operations".  Revenues increased by 27% for the three month
      period ended July 31, 1996 over prior year third quarter.  This increase
      is attributable to acquisition and operation of the Houston,
      Jacksonville/Space Coast, and Tulsa hygiene franchises. In July 1996, 
      the Company sold the hygiene operation in Houston, TX. to a franchisee.
      Residential maids operations reported third quarter revenues of
      $152,049.  This is a substantial increase over the prior year due to
      the acquisition of the Scottsdale franchise and increased revenue from
      the Charlotte operations.

	 EXPENSES:
	    Total pre-tax expenses for the third quarter ended July 31, 1996
     increased 44% over third quarter 1995, which represents an increase of
     $797,340.  Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 50% to
     $1,174,273 as compared to prior year third quarter of $780,737. Expenses of
     of Company owned subsidiaries increased $136,273 over the prior year's
     third quarter.

<PAGE>

  		SEGMENT EXPENSES:

  			 "Franchise Operations".  Expenses for the third quarter of 1996 increased
      $393,536 as compared with the third quarter of 1995.  Expenses of
      corporate and hygiene franchising increased by $223,158, while costs of
      the Swisher Maids franchising division increased $78,804. The remaining
      $91,574 was attributable to Surface Doctor.  Cost of products for
      resale to franchisees increased by $275,787 which is directly related
      to the 45% increase in total product sales.

  			 "Company Operations".  Expenses for the third quarter ended July 31,
      1996 increased by $136,348 or 33% as compared to third quarter 1995. 
      This increase in expenses is directly related to the start up expenses of
      increased Company operations.  The Company hygiene and residential maids
      operations are operated in the same manner as a franchise operation.  The
      Company also uses the Charlotte operations for training new franchisees
		  	 and to test new programs for later introduction into the franchise system.

	 INCOME:
   		Income before taxes for the three months ended July 31, 1996 decreased
  $81,515 or 33% as compared to the 1995 third quarter.  Net income was
  $163,886 for the quarter ended July 31,	1996, as compared to third quarter
  1995 of $150,148.  Earnings per share, for the three months ended July 31,
  1996, was $.09 on weighted average shares outstanding of 1,853,015, as
  compared	to the same period last year of $.08 per share on 1,877,686 shares.

  		SEGMENT INCOME:

  			 "Franchise Operations".  Operating income for the three month period ended
      July 31, 1996, decreased to $116,648 as compared to the same period last
      year of $191,482.  Operating income was 5.3% of franchise operating
      revenues for the third quarter as compared to prior year third quarter
      of 11.9%.

  			 "Company Operations".  Operating income for the third quarter 1996
      decreased by 12%, with a pre-tax income of $48,635 as compared to third
      quarter 1995 of $55,316.


 	LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

   		Working capital decreased $417,000 during the first nine months of fiscal
  1996 due principally to an increase of $400,000 in the current portion of
  Long-Term Debt.  Total assets increased by $1,653,000 primarily due to the
  acquisition of Surface Doctor, Inc.  Current liabilities increased by 
  $800,000 while long-term liabilities decreased by $425,000.  Increases in
  accounts payable and accrued expenses reflect the increased activity in
  both Company and franchisee operations.
