Important business franchise Information


Franchise Marketing: What Does the Franchisor Do?

By Samantha McCartney

Deciding to join a franchise family is a great opportunity with many benefits. Many of these benefits you will not receive if choosing to open your own independent business. You will receive training on the franchise system, you will be part of a big network that can provide assistance to you when needed, and you will be investing in a business that has a higher rate of success than an independently owned business. But another great benefit you will receive is a marketing advantage! Not only would you be buying a well known name or brand, but should receive additional marketing for your franchise!

When you decided to purchase a franchise you will need to consider the marketing plan that the franchisor provides. A marketing plan outlines the specific actions you intend to carry out to interest potential customers and clients in your product and/or service and persuade them to buy the product and/or services you offer. So, this is something that the franchisor will provide per your franchise contract with them. The marketing that the franchisor provides is a big reason why franchisors have a higher potential for success, so if you donít agree with the plan or there isnít one look for a different franchise.

Marketing for your franchise is an important facet to running your franchise successfully. You will want to ensure that your franchisor offers a great marketing plan that will help generate business for your franchise. The franchisor will have a fee that you will pay for marketing. Since, this is something that you will be paying for, so make sure you get the most for your money.

The marketing plan should cover such expenses as print advertisements, TV commercials, and direct mailings to both potential and existing customers. Also a good plan to look for is one that covers fees that you may pay for advertising agencies for in-house marketing. You want to make sure that you are reaching any potential customers so you will need to have advertisement in as many different forms as possible. For example, if you only put a newspaper ad out, only the people who read that certain section of the paper will see your advertisement. You will want to make sure that their plan is suited for what you are selling, and that it reaches out to a wide variety of people. You will be limiting your franchises success if your franchisor does not have a complete and effective marketing plan.

Another aspect to consider is whether the franchisor will listen to marketing suggestions from franchisees about future marketing. A good franchisor will, since this is a way to stay fresh with their marketing and gain many new ideas that can lead to successful for the whole franchise family. Times are always changing so in order to keep up with them you do have to change a little. What worked 15 years ago, is most likely not what is going to work currently!

So, make sure that you find a franchisor that provides you with a great marketing plan, since that is what they are supposed to do to keep the entire franchise family successful!

Is a Franchise right for me?
Part 3 from our recent franchise webinar featuring Nick Strong of Select Your Franchise. In this episode Nick addresses the question 'Is a franchise right for me?'. Excerpt: "The great news is for anyone that's thinking about managing that risk and thinking about going into franchising, is that consistently over the years, the NatWest and British Franchise Association national survey has revealed that over 90% of people that run franchises, the franchisees, actually run profitable businesses. So that's one of the key reasons why the banks are so interested in franchising because there's such high levels of success for those that take on and run a franchise business."

New way of teaching : Jonathan Marshall
Jonathan Marshall speaking at Indian Education Congress 2012 said, "One thing I wanted to point out which Franchise India and the S.Chand group have done is a fantastic effort is holding an event like this because this can only happen in India." He spoke about his experience as to how the problems in the Indian market have given solutions globally. He cited an example as to how the big ultrasound machines was developed into a hand held device which now has global equitability. "Learning is critical; a bad early learning environment slowly kills a child. But we had a huge rise in technology recently, wherein the tools which only the airlines could use 20-30 years ago or the military were not accessible, but my business partner has an IPad which is the classroom of the 21st century and he said 'I have a flight stimulator application in that , that is as good as the all flight stimulators I went when I was doing my pilot training only 15 years ago, it cost $20; so this is the potential for a new way of teaching by early childhood teachers." Plataris specialises in visual based interactive content incorporating video, 3D animation, simulations and serious game based methodologies to create immersive and engaging learning content. Plataris has a strategic partnership with Gold Coast Institute of TAFE (GCIT), the third largest vocational education institution in Australia, and a joint venture partnership with Franchise India.
