The Art of Matchmaking

by Jessica Melendez
Certified Franchise Consultant

Not all perfect matches are about couples in love. The franchise industry has its own set of Cupids, otherwise known as franchise consultants, and they, too, are skilled in the art of matchmaking. How can you tell if you’re working with a quality franchise consultant? Just like a good life partner, you want a good listener, someone who puts your needs first, and knows what’s important to you. Here are a few signs that your consultant is a good one.

She gauges your seriousness.
Are you all-in or just exploring? You want a professional who is savvy enough to detect—and help you decide—if franchise ownership is for you.

She asks questions and listens to answers.
Once a franchise consultant has been enlisted to find the right match for a client, she should be focused on what her client is really looking to do. A good consultant will get to know her client on three levels: First, the personal level. What are the client’s personal objectives? More time with family? Less travel? Work from home? It’s important for the consultant to pay close attention here, because a client could be revealing his true motivation for business ownership.

Next, the consultant should inquire about professional goals. What is the client trying to achieve in his next business? Maybe he’s tired of answering to others and wants to be his own boss. Maybe he wants to build something to leave to his kids. Maybe he wants to diversify his portfolio. Professional ambitions are telling of what a client wants now and in the future.

The third level is financial. A thorough consultant wants to discover what the client wants to obtain financially. A six-figure income? A cash business? Scalability? The consultant also needs to understand what a client can financially qualify for and how comfortable he is with risk. A decent franchise consultant wouldn’t want a client to fall in love with a concept that’s not in his budget.

She has connections.
A quality franchise consultant will represent several franchise brands and—once armed with information about her client—can start matchmaking. The consultant will present options for the client to review, so he can decide who he would like to get to know further. A consultant should never be afraid to throw in a wild card to expand a client’s options.

She leads the client through the process.
Once a connection is made, the client has to decide if the match is right for him. How does he do it? Research. A quality consultant will encourage the client to research the brand and to get to the know the potential franchisor before signing on the dotted line.

A consultant will also suggest that the client speaks to other owners to validate the brand and get a first-person account of what the client should expect as a franchisee. And just like with Cupid, if the courtship goes well, then a union is made.

Beauty and wellness franchises tap ever-growing consumer demands

by Jerry Rieder, Certified Franchise Consultant

People everywhere view their health and appearance as worthwhile investments. The $3.7 trillion global wellness industry is expected to expand by more than 17 percent through 2020, and health and beauty franchises enable you to join this high-growth field.

People always want to look and feel good, so these businesses typically are recession-resistant, which makes them a particularly appealing investment.

Hair salons alone generate more than $44 billion in revenue each year in the United States. Health and wellness spas bring in about $17 billion a year, and massage services are at $16 billion. Personal waxing and nail salons bring in some $11 billion, with tanning salons generating more than $2 billion in yearly revenue.
If those numbers sound pretty sweet, consider that the forecast is rosy for a continuing boom. The U.S. Department of Labor sees demand staying strong, projecting that the beauty and wellness industry will grow faster than the average for all occupations through at least 2020.

So if you’re looking for a franchise in an industry with a strong past performance and a bright outlook, you might consider the areas of beauty salon/hair care, cosmetics, tanning, or med spa. These businesses are fun to operate and have a high profit potential. Another attraction: usually no industry experience is required.
Following are three high-growth categories to consider:

Lash Services

The great thing about eyelash extensions is that follow-up treatments are a must, which means that repeat visits are assured. And lash love isn’t just for celebs anymore—rank-and-file office workers to soccer moms are buying into this beauty trend.

One company that anticipated the growing demand is the Lash Lounge. It was the first business of its kind in the franchising world and joined the booming express beauty service industry as a salon that specializes solely in eyelash extensions.

Massages

After a tough day at work, tense muscles can cry out for a massage. Statistics show that most Americans suffer from back pain, other muscle pain, and routine stress, which are the primary reasons that people sign up for their first massage. Among the franchise options filling those needs is Elements Massage™. It provides a variety of massage therapy options to clients who seek relaxation or relief for lower back soreness or just an overall wellness benefit.

Barbershops

One fast-growing consumer base in the beauty and wellness industry is men, and the barbershop is the male equivalent of the beauty salon. Barbershops have begun offering a wide array of styling options and environments for the testosterone set.

One example is Diesel Barbershop®, an innovative franchise founded in 2011. Diesel’s target audience is 16- to 75-year-old men. Its customers want a place where they can relax and maybe drink a beer (21-and-older customers, of course!) while getting their haircut and a shave. Clients enjoy the masculine atmosphere where they can talk sports or other interests with the barber or other customers.

Taking the reigns of the family business

by Jill Abrahamsen

Heidi Morrissey never planned on joining the family business. In fact, she worked as an elementary school teacher and ran her own home-based business for 11 years until her dad’s years of convincing persuaded her to join his enterprise.

Her father, Dave Haglund, founded Kitchen Tune-Up® in 1986 with the mission of giving wood surfaces a fresh, updated appearance. The tune-up is an inexpensive, convenient way for customers to get a new look in their kitchens (and bathrooms) without the hassle and expense of a major overhaul.

The business was an immediate success, and in 1988, Kitchen Tune-Up sold its first franchise. Over the years, the Kitchen Tune-Up system expanded to include cabinet refacing, redooring, custom cabinets, storage solutions, and more. Morrissey joined in 2003, taking on marketing and sales as well as a major rebranding of the company.
Morrissey’s leadership impressed her dad so much that she eventually took his place at the helm of the company. Her passion for the brand—and the franchise opportunity—has led Kitchen Tune-Up to be a major player in the industry.

“People don’t even believe it when I tell them about the ease and value of this opportunity,” Morrissey says. “Franchisees can run the business out of their homes and grow it at their own pace.” The company offers extensive training, including working with the home office team for the first 12 weeks, plus ongoing webinars and support. “We are here for our franchisees every step of the way,” she adds.

With more than 30 years in business, Kitchen Tune-Up offers investors a great opportunity with a well-known name. There is no carpentry background or heavy lifting needed to own this business, but an eye for design doesn’t hurt. “We are looking for partners who are self-starters,” Morrisey says. “Women are our customers and female owners have a natural connection from the start.”

When passion drives you, success follows.

by Jill Abrahamsen

A combination of fate, life experience, and passion brought Susan Amos and J’annine Sullivan together as business partners. As the owners of Senior Helpers in Lafayette, LA, the women are passionate about what they do. “We love the elderly,” Sullivan says. They believe in their business and feel strongly about the service they provide. “At the end of the day, it’s a great feeling to know that you’ve made a difference in someone’s life,” Sullivan adds.

The partners’ journey into business ownership started with a common passion. Sullivan and Amos were volunteers at the Alzheimer’s Association in their hometown of Lafayette. Because each had a parent who suffered with the disease, the women had firsthand knowledge of the strain and struggles that families experience when caring for loved ones with Alzheimer’s.

Seeing the passion that Sullivan had for her volunteer work, Amos approached her to go into partnership when she had the opportunity to purchase an existing Senior Helpers franchise. “I was already retired. It was never my plan to open a business, but I felt like God was telling me, ‘I have a purpose for you,’ ” Sullivan says. As partners, divvying up responsibilities wasn’t an issue. With a strong marketing and sales background, Amos was well-suited to promote the business and develop relationships. Drawing on her management experience, Sullivan runs the daily operations and goes into the field to make sure quality care is being delivered. “At the core, we have the same morals, mission, and values. That’s why we make a great team,” Sullivan says.

When you love what you do, success comes easily. The pair took over the existing location in November of 2017, and it has since more than tripled in size. “Our office was ranked No. 4 in total company increase this period—2017 vs. 2018—out of 283 franchises,” Amos says. Senior Helpers recognized their efforts with its President’s Award, which included a trip to Ireland that they plan to take in May.

But it’s not the bottom line that drives Sullivan and Amos. They are passionate about serving their clients and the community. “I’ve been in this business for a long time. J’annine and I purchased Senior Helpers because we want to provide a different experience in home care. We’ve done that for our clients,” says Amos.

Strategizing Validation

Get the inside scoop from other franchisees before you make your final decision

by Diana Capirano
Certified Franchise Consultant

My clients hear me say it all the time, “Validation is where the rubber meets the road!” The validation process—when you talk to other franchisees about their real-life experiences inside the franchise—is an important part of the franchise buying process. In fact, the opinions of other franchisees can make or break your decision. This is where you hear how it really is from other franchisees—and when you can determine if similar experiences will work for you. The FTC limits how much the franchisor has to reveal, so you can talk to current owners about any omissions. Inside information from current owners is vital. So how do you make the most of it? Here, we give you five steps to help you make the most of the process.

Step 1-Identify your Targets
Make sure you talk to both top performers and low performers—at least two of each. This gives you a good sampling. Ask about franchise support, training, and the future vision of the franchise.

Include startups, those businesses that have launched within 18 months. This will help you validate start-up costs and track to break even. You’ll even be able to ballpark initial training costs, as it’s still fresh in start-up minds. Also, talk to people at the end of a franchise agreement. Will they renew? What differences have they observed, and how adaptable has the franchisor been to changes in the competitive landscape.
Talk to those closest to you in terms of location and those with similar demographic profiles. It can give a good indication of your target market and may become more relevant in businesses driven by local economies.

Step 2-Develop your Tool
Create a list of questions and include those that the franchisor was not “permitted” to answer. Use a list supplied by your consultant as a guide and add your own questions. Ask clarifying questions as part of a free-flowing conversation, not just a simple Q and A. You want detail. Organize your questions by category, such as financial performance, marketing, support, onboarding, and so on.

Step 3-Build Rapport
Learn about the franchisee and share your background to frame your questions. The higher objective is determining if this is a good fit for everyone. Take a few minutes at the beginning to encourage open-ended, engaged, and candid dialogue. Make it conversational. Focus on the difference between objective and subjective answers. Ask anything and don’t be shy—franchisees went through this same process and know the value. If anything was deemed a negative, ask these questions: Is the franchisor aware? What is the plan to address this? Remember: You are being evaluated as well.

Step 4-Take Notes
Hopefully you will be inundated with great feedback, but document who said what in case you want to circle back for further clarification.

As you organize your information, ask yourself what was most meaningful? Did anything surprise you? What were common themes, both positive and negative. A few other questions to ask yourself:

  • Can I see myself working with these owners? Will they be a support to me?
  • What made others successful or unsuccessful? Will the same apply to me?
  • Overall, do I feel better and encouraged? Or, do I feel leery and concerned?

Step 5-Share Findings
Share your feedback with your consultant and franchisor. Do they seem surprised by anything you’ve uncovered? A great franchisor should not be surprised about anything coming out of validation, but he should be willing to explain or clarify points if necessary.

Step out of your comfort zone

by Jessica Melendez
Certified Franchise Consultant

I have often compared a franchise consultant to a psychologist because both professionals observe, interpret, and record the client’s objectives and desired outcomes. While working as a franchise consultant, I have come across clients who say what they want and what they don’t want. But then as I start to uncover their true objectives and desired outcomes, what they originally told me doesn’t match up.

For instance: A couple of years ago, I worked with a client who planned to invest in a franchise while he kept his corporate job. He wanted nothing to do with restaurants or a brand-new franchise. Along the way, he also told me that St. Louis was changing and he felt it was ready for something innovative. He wanted to be at the forefront of an industry or product in his market. He also wanted to buy multiples to make an impact and build an empire. As we continued our conversation, he said he had a passion for health and fitness.

At the time, FranServe added the new brand Rush Bowls. Rush Bowls is a concept that targets the on-the-go health-food industry in a unique way. Rush Bowls restaurants serve flash-frozen, thickly liquefied fruit that is topped with other healthy ingredients—a meal replacement in a bowl. Because Rush Bowls was an emerging brand, it had only two franchisees at the time. St. Louis was wide open for development, and the company’s concept was the innovative product my client sought in an industry he was passionate about.

Despite my client telling me he didn’t want to be in the restaurant business or be a part of a new franchise, Rush Bowls had everything else: the ability to build an empire while keeping his job and a concept currently missing from his market. When I presented this option to him, I issued a disclaimer outlining the two negatives, the things he specifically said he didn’t want, but I also suggested he keep an open mind about this brand. Lo and behold, what he thought he didn’t want was the very thing he ended up with. The pros to this brand ultimately ended up prevailing over the things he perceived as undesirable.

This client is the perfect example of why you need to look beyond your comfort zone. He was receptive enough to step outside the box and look at something that would have never occurred to him. By doing that, he ended up with exactly what he wanted. He is the proud owner of three Rush Bowls in St. Louis and may develop a total of seven to 10.

Sometimes an open mind and a willingness to leave your comfort zone can pay big dividends.

An add-on franchise can boost the profits of an existing business

An add-on franchise can boost the profits of an existing business

By Jason Power

Many people have been bitten by the entrepreneurial bug and have started businesses rather than buying into a franchise. Many of those same people later realize they’re missing out on a huge opportunity to reach additional customers through the addition of extra products or services. This is where franchising can lend a hand through an add-on franchise.

So what is an add-on franchise and how does it work?

Many businesses are seasonal or offer services that can be easily complemented with related services. In these cases, a business owner can take the existing business model and add extra products or services offered by a franchise system.

Some examples of this model include:

  • Lawn maintenance companies that add tree-trimming services.
  • Convenience stores that add gasoline or fast-food options.
  • Roofing companies that add fire, smoke, water, and mold-remediation services.

These are just a few of the business models that can leverage their existing customer bases by selling additional products or services. By adding the complementary franchise, these business owners can enhance their existing companies by leveraging the buying power of the franchise, its brand recognition, and the support system offered by the franchisor.

What about the pros and cons of adding a franchise to an existing business?

With every business, pros and cons must be considered. The obvious benefit to this add-on model is the new profit center derived from the addition of complementary services along with the reduced workload of creating the new product or service offering from scratch. Although the profit potential is great, the business owner must also consider the costs associated with buying into the franchise model, the restrictions that will be imposed by the franchisor, and the long-term commitment that comes with buying a franchise.

What are the legal considerations?

As with most franchise agreements, the business owner will be expected to sign personal guaranty, non-competition, and confidentiality agreements. These agreements should be reviewed carefully to prevent undue hardship for the business owner’s existing business model. If the business owner leaves the franchise, by mutual agreement or otherwise, the business owner must ensure from the beginning that he or she can continue operating the existing business without interruption.

The franchise add-on model can be a great way to add profit to an existing business by leveraging existing space and current customers. By knowing how the franchise add-on model works, understanding the pros and cons, and speaking with an attorney who focuses on helping franchisees, business owners are equipped to take their businesses to the next level.
