Well, we're here to help...
Meet Shirin Sharifi and Alison Underwood, our Franchise Development Managers here at When the Music Stops and quite frankly it would be difficult to find a friendlier or more helpful twosome anywhere.
In the difficult economic circumstances that we are in globally at the present time, if you've been made redundant or that may happen in the near future, then it's time to look at alternatives. But it's difficult sometimes to know where to start.
Maybe we can help? At When the Music Stops, we're looking for the best when it comes to choosing our franchisees, so don't employ sales staff just Development Managers, whose role it is to help us expand in the right way and through the right people.
We believe that our franchise packages offer quite outstanding value and quite frankly they sell themselves, so there is never any pressure on you to complete a sale with us, but certainly we believe that talking to Shirin or Alison could help immensely.
Here are some pointers:-
- Is the franchise that you are looking at in an industry that has boomed over the last decade?
- Is it in an industry that is not currently being ravaged by the recession?
- Would you be working in a fun and enjoyable environment?
- Would you enjoy helping people making the most important decision of their lives?
- Does your favoured franchise come all inclusive, or are there expensive 'extras' to buy once you're onboard?
- Is there an expensive compulsive marketing levy?
- Does it represent great value for money?
- How much training is there? Is it at extra cost?
- What about day to day support? Is it included and for how long?
- Does the franchise keep on working while you are asleep or enjoying your leisure time?
- Can you spread your payments to keep costs low?
- Is the franchise agreement completed to BFA standards?
- Can you renew at the end of the term without a further franchise fee being payable?
- Can you earn at a rate not usually available to someone on a PAYE basis i.e. £400 to £1000 per night?
