Franchising a Business

As a natural consequence of our traditional advising and extensive experience in franchising, we are regularly approached to look at the feasibility of taking an existing business to franchise. In addition, we work with experienced franchisors and help them to expand nationally and internationally. We have an extensive international business network and have assisted businesses in over 23 countries.

One thing we’ve learned over the years is that a step-by-step approach is vital. We’ve devised a simple and yet extremely effective method of taking a business to franchise. Your franchise is unique; however the foundations for success are rooted in a common process. Whether you have an existing system or are just starting out, there are certain areas that need to be covered.

Firstly, we need to define the opportunity. We help you to produce an opportunity summary, aimed at establishing interest in your franchise offering. While we’re doing this, we’ll have you writing the operations and systems manual for the business. If it’s not in your skill set, we can write one for you. We also handle the drafting of the legal agreements – this will save you thousands in solicitor’s fees. Once the package is complete, we set about recruiting your first intake of franchisees. We have our own bespoke franchise recruitment system designed to effectively attract quality candidates. We do not use external franchise recruitment companies. Your candidates will need training. We’ll help you write the franchisee training system to enable them to make the opportunity a success. But it’s not over then. The most vital aspect of franchising is ongoing training and support – not only for the candidates but also for you as the franchisor.  

We have all of the documentation, manuals and processes already templated. This allows you to focus on tailoring your business model to franchise without reinventing the wheel.

Here’s what some of our clients have said:

"The Infinite Group has been amazing in helping the Happynurses franchise system to develop. They are enthusiastic and supportive, dynamic and knowledgeable. 

“Our sessions together produce an 'action plan' with clear goals and deadlines which ensure the business moves forward at a rapid pace. 

“The Infinite Group consultant I work with communicates clearly with frequent updates so I feel like I am always informed even if we do not see each other in person. He is a hard worker, with great connections and networks he can tap into. Happynurses has developed massively in the 2 months we have been working together"
