[H2] What is Franchising?

Put simply, franchising is the process of expanding an established business by granting a licence to franchisees to own and operate their own business, under the brand and business model of the franchisor.
In a franchise system, a franchisee will generally pay the franchisor to use their branding and established company identity, and then run their own location, largely independently, with the franchisor offering support and training in the operations and marketing of the franchise.
Franchising is an alternative to company owned expansion, which can be costly, time consuming and very difficult for the owner of the company. It is a highly successful model, with the vast majority of franchises becoming profitable, and very few failing.
Franchising is considered to be more affordable and less time consuming method of expansion, but does it come with its own difficulties and pitfalls, and not every business is suitable for a franchise model of expansion.
This is where The Franchise Company comes in. Once your company is in a position to franchise, our expert consultants will help guide you through the process of moving your business into a franchise model and helping to make your company a success.

[H2] Who Are The Franchise Company?

The Franchise Company is a specialist franchise consultancy business. With over 35 years of experience working with businesses to create successful franchise models, we are experts in the development of franchises and franchise models across a wide variety of industries.
Our passion is helping businesses realise their potential in a franchise system, and using our expertise to make sure that your journey franchising your business is successful and creates opportunity for you and your franchisees. We have close links within the franchising industry, including affiliation with the British Franchise Association (BFA) and several high street banks.
As one of the longest established franchise consultancies in the country (with over 120 years combined experience), all of our consultants have experience working in franchisor environments and so understand the unique challenges faced when moving your business into a franchise model. This allows us to apply our knowledge to help clients prosper within the franchise model. We always give honest and transparent advice to make sure our clients are successful, and don’t fall into common traps and pitfalls that we see so many businesses struggle with.
When you work with us, you’ll also have one consultant who sees you through from initial discussions to the very end of the consultancy process. This allows us to really get to know our clients and gain a complete understanding of the business.

[H3] Suitability & Planning

We start by assessing the suitability of the business for expansion as a franchise model. We want to see all of our clients succeed, so won’t always recommend franchising as the most feasible course of action. We always look to the long term to make sure the business has potential for longevity and right from the early development stages look to build in reasons for long term success within the franchise model.
Then, we plan. Your consultant will spend time with your company, understanding how you work and the things about your business that make it special. From top to bottom, we examine the way you work and how you’ve made your business successful so far. Using this in-depth knowledge, we can confirm the feasibility of your business to operate as a franchise whilst helping you to make absolutely sure that franchising is the right choice for you and your organisation. We do an in-depth examination of the finance, operations and marketing of the company and consider the market opportunity and any established franchise competitors, so we understand exactly how you work now, how this can translate into a franchise model and how you can maximise the commercial opportunity.

[H3] Creating the Model & Systems

This extensive examination also allows us to design a bespoke franchise model, tailored to your company and its needs. We’ll carry out territory analysis, to show how you can expand your reach, both when starting out as a franchised business, and further in the future. We’ll also put together accurate financial models for both franchisors and franchisees to show how the business will need to operate as part of a franchise model, including initial and ongoing franchise fee structures.
If the planning and modelling of the franchise indicates that your business can operate successfully as a franchise, we’ll then move onto documentation and system development. Making sure your franchisees understand exactly who and what your business is, your core values and unique selling points is vital to creating a strong, long lasting brand, and documentation is how we make sure this happens. Your internal management and marketing systems are part of the commercial advantages that you offer to franchisees and we’ll help you understand how they can be effectively structured as part of your franchise model.
Your operations manual and franchise agreement documents help to establish the responsibilities of the franchisor and franchisee, setting the stage for the relationship you’ll have in the coming years, which is why it’s so important to have high quality and in-depth documents. When you work with The Franchise Company, your consultant will have years of experience creating bespoke franchise documentation to help make sure your expansion gets started on the right foot, and sets you up for a long, successful relationship with your franchisees.

[H3] Franchise Marketing & Recruitment

We also assist in creating a variety of franchise marketing and recruitment documents, including a franchise prospectus and marketing materials to promote your franchise to potential franchisees, creating a positive relationship that enhances the success of your franchise. These materials tell potential franchisees everything about your company, as well as the opportunities and value that franchising with your company can give them. You want to attract driven, competent, motivated franchisees who believe in your brand and want to make it a success, and with great marketing, training, recruitment and support systems and materials, The Franchise Company can help to make this happen.

[H3] Piloting the Model

Then, we’ll support you to pilot the franchise. With the help of 1-3 carefully chosen franchisees, we can assist you to run an ongoing feedback, monitoring and review process across the pilot franchises. We create a feedback loop between all parties to help make the start of your franchising journey as easy and effective as possible.
Finally, after a successful pilot, we can help you start to expand. Our experience of franchising can be utilized to provide ongoing support to you and your franchisees as you expand, while also helping the organisation innovate and develop, and creating opportunities for further development. Specific support available here includes staff and franchisee training, franchise website and social media development, staff and franchisee mentoring and coaching support and ongoing assistance with franchise recruitment.
Your consultant will remain with you for as long as you need support, before you branch out fully into your successfully franchised business.

As a long-standing and highly respected franchise consultancy, we have a multitude of connections to help make the franchising process easy for our clients, including strong links with the British Franchise Association (BFA) - the regulatory body for franchises in the UK. We also have close relationships with several high street banks to help our clients on their journey as they move their business into a franchise model.
We also offer specialist services in international franchising and social franchising.

[H2] Is Franchising Right For Me?

Franchising is best for companies who are established and have been trading for at least twelve months. Ideally, you will have been trading for 2-3 years and are an established successful business with the capital and capacity for growth and a real market opportunity to exploit.
Some business models aren’t appropriate for franchising, as the model has to be able to support both the franchisor and the franchisee. For example, businesses that rely on very low gross profit margins or require specialist knowledge and skills might not be appropriate for the franchise model. Businesses catering to trends or providing products that may be rendered obsolete after a few years are also unlikely to be successful in a franchise system, due to the long-term nature of franchisor/franchisee relationships.
In a successful franchise system, the business model has to be established, proven and easily replicable by potential franchisees. The unique industry challenges and the pitfalls potential franchisors can find while setting up their business must all have been faced and overcome by the original owners of the business. When your business is ready to start looking into franchising as a potential path for growth, you should be running a tried and tested business model, and not be experimenting or trying new processes.

[H2] What Makes for a Great Franchise?

When it comes to franchising a company, your branding is one of the most important factors to your success. Having a strong brand that can portray your company's identity instantly and effectively, while being an organisation that franchisees are enthusiastic to join, and is suitable to expand nationally or internationally will help make your franchise process a success. A strong brand that permeates through all levels of the business will make your company a better candidate for the franchise model.
In addition, one of, if not the most important factor in creating a successful franchise is to recruit franchisees who are passionate and driven to help make the business successful. To get great franchisees, you have to be a great franchisor, and your business must be willing to allow franchisees independence, but still consistently offer high levels of support, training and development to franchisees.
It is important to remember that relationship between the franchisor and franchisee is not the same as an employer/employee relationship. Franchisees must be given the opportunity to lead and improve their own franchise, and in order to be successful, the franchisor has to be able to give franchisees this level of responsibility and independence. Clear, professional communication between franchisors and franchisees is a sign of a franchise with great potential.

[H2] Franchise Your Business FAQs

[H3] Considerations for Franchising
When thinking about franchising, there are a number of issues to consider:
Is the model that you are thinking about franchising proven?
Has the business model operated successfully for a period of time (normally a minimum of twelve months).
Is there demand for the products/services in other geographical areas?
Could the business work successfully in different areas and locations?
Can the necessary day to day operating skill be easily taught?
Is the business producing attractive profits and a reasonable return on investment?
[H3] Potential Rewards
Franchisors usually generate revenue from their franchise operations in the following ways: Franchise Package Fee:
A one-off, up-front fee paid by franchisees for the initial products and services provided by the franchisor to enable them to set up and begin trading.
License Fee: A one-off, up-front fee paid by franchisees for the rights granted under the franchise agreement
Franchise Management Fees: On-going fees paid by franchisees, either an agreed fixed monthly fee or, more commonly, a % of their monthly turnover (typically 5-15%)
On-going sale of products and/or services to franchisees
In addition, franchising normally significantly increases the capital value of a business and some franchised businesses have sold recently for very significant capital amounts - much greater than could have ever been achieved from company owned expansion.
[H3] Timescales
Various factors will influence how quickly we could prepare you to launch your franchise operation and it is impossible to give a precise prediction of this here. As a guide you could be ready to begin seeking the pilot franchisees 3-4 months from the commencement of the project.
[H3] Costs Involved
The precise investment required from you in order to franchise your business depends on a number of factors including the complexity of your business model. We will be able to give you a Project Proposal and an itemised breakdown of the costs once we’ve discussed this fully with you and obtained a detailed brief. Here’s a guide:
[H4] Consultancy Fees
Stage 1: Designing the model: £5000 - £8,000 + VAT
Stage 2: Franchise documentation: £5,000 - £8,000 + VAT
Stage 3: Piloting and ongoing depends on our input but fees can be linked to franchisee recruitment
[H4] Other Costs
Legal fee franchise agreement: £3,000 - £5,000 + VAT
Franchise prospectus: £500 - £1,000 + VAT
UK trade mark registration: £200 - £800 + VAT
Franchise recruitment launch budget - TBD
