The day offers valuable information for those looking to start a business, and to expand an existing business. You are welcome to join us for either part or both, but certainly for the lunch session with Hadley Harmon!
Many choose to use franchising as a way to get into running a business, or to expand a growing company. We've brought together several experts in this area, but the topics aren't limited to that. We'll also help you look at whether this is the right way for you to meet your goals.
You'll get some principles, case studies and relevant skills to improve your knowledge of the franchise industry, and some structures for how best to meet your business goals. We bring together a complete team of specialists from business coaching, financing, management and law, to help you with franchising and other models. You'll learn about typical investment requirements, opportunities available in the local area, and the personal qualities required to run a successful company.
Starting a business is always a daunting process, as is growing an existing business. Come and learn how to use an established brand, leverage a clear business model, and work with mentors to give you the best advice.
Are you an entrepreneur who is serious about looking for a new business? Or are you a business owner interested in franchising? Join us for a 3-hour seminar to learn if franchising is right for you!
