UK Franchisees is a unique website designed specifically for anyone who is a UK franchisee. The industry you are in is irrelevant.
The basis of the site is to link all of us as franchisees together so that we can all benefit our individual businesses.
3 Crucial Points
- As franchisees we all face similar obstacles, costs and difficulties in running our businesses. Let’s help each other.
- As franchisees we are all customers of many of the things other franchisees offer. Why not place your business and personal needs in the hands of like-minded fanchisees who, in turn, will buy your product/services.
- Membership is free
At this site you can:
- Advertise your product/service to other members who will be far more likely to buy.
- Plan joint marketing initiatives with other franchisees from your local area and split costs.
- Arrange local meet ups.
- Swap and Discuss marketing/promotional ideas
- Refer and recommend other non franchise businesses to other members for free or commission if you have deals in place.
- Discuss legal issues that are causing concerns
- Set up your own blog on this site. Keep everyone informed of what your business is doing and be able to write more informally than may be possible on your main business website.
- Deal with fellow franchisees, knowing that they are in a similar position to you.
At the moment there are many forums for people discussing whether to buy a franchise or not. This site is for people who have already taken the plunge. If we all group together then we, as franchisees, working with each other, as well as our franchisors, can become a hugely powerful organisation that will benefit each and every one of us.
Please join up today. It only takes a minute. It’s free and you can join in discussion, set up your blog, introduce your services to fellow professionals, have a ready made group of people who may want to buy from you.
Finally an example. Totally randomly thought up.
As a local tax assistance franchisee you could:
1. Offer your services to just about every franchisee on this site in your area.
2. Decide that a mail shot cost could be halved by sharing distribution with a health and safety franchisee
3. Discuss joint referrals with a local insurance broker franchisee
4. Be a home owner and look to use a fellow franchisee garden maintenance service
5. Get a special site rate from a fellow franchisee offering branding/advertising products like pens, note pads etc.
There are so many ways that this site can benefit everyone if we can get people on board. Please do tell your franchisee friends and contacts.
