Initial Support for Franchising

Before proceeding with franchising your business, we recommend conducting a feasibility study to assess its franchisability. Our Business Assessment Report and Franchise Blueprint Strategy Plan go beyond assessing franchisability and provide valuable insights, including potential routes, financial illustrations for both franchisees and franchisors, pros and cons of franchising, requirements for successful franchising, and assistance in creating a strategy plan.

Developing the Franchise

We establish all the necessary infrastructure to ensure a successful franchise launch. This includes creating corporate and brand identities, protecting intellectual property, working with franchise lawyers, developing operational manuals, organising training programmes, setting up administrative systems, projecting financial outcomes, designing franchise brochures, and addressing other crucial aspects. Our professional manual writing team can assist with the writing process or provide you with a template to contribute content yourself.

Recruiting Franchisees

Our team is experienced in all stages of franchisee recruitment. Whether you need guidance in determining the ideal franchisee profile, marketing the franchise opportunity, or managing leads, we have you covered. Our FranMatch program caters to both prospective and established franchisors, allowing you to entrust us with lead handling and free up your time for working on other important areas of the business.

Franchise Legal Agreements

We offer reliable franchise agreement services in partnership with Ashtons Legal. Franchise agreements play a vital role in safeguarding your brand, ensuring consistency across franchise locations, and protecting intellectual property. Clients enjoy our partnership with a law firm as it provides joined up thinking and a seamless ‘one stop shop’ service.

We regularly offer free ‘how to franchise’ masterclasses, providing valuable insights and guidance for newcomers or those in the early stages of franchising research.
