Turn your proven business into a franchise network
We manage the entire process, from feasibility and documentation through to recruiting your first franchisees, so you can focus on running the business you already have.
Is your business ready to franchise?
The businesses that succeed as franchises share certain characteristics. Before recommending any package, we assess your business against these five markers.
A proven model
At least two years of consistent, repeatable trading results, with clear and documented margins.
Replicable by others
Your business can be taught and run by a capable newcomer following a documented system, without you in the room.
National market demand
Sufficient demand exists across multiple territories to support a viable network of franchisees.
Viable margins
Franchisees can earn a strong living and still comfortably meet franchise fees and ongoing royalties.
Commitment to the role
You are ready to take on responsibility for the success of other people's businesses alongside your own.
Capacity to invest
You have the financial foundation to fund franchise development and sustain recruitment activity while your network grows.
Not sure if your business ticks all five? That is exactly why we offer a free, no-obligation assessment.
