Franchisors normally have three options when marketing for new franchisees.
For small or emerging franchisors, the Founders or Senior Officers handle the sale process themselves. This approach has a couple of intrinsic flaws. One, it’s often perceived as a sign of “inadequate” infrastructure when the senior level staff deals with every operational segment of the business.
The Franchisor hires an internal sales team. How many sales will it require to overcome the expenses and overhead involved in managing your sales staff? How qualified and skilled are your Franchise Recruiters in converting prospects and building a strong trusting relationship with your candidates?
The Franchisor’s sales team is the Gatekeeper. This “old school” method is one in which the franchisor or the sales team still believe they are the gatekeepers of information rather than a role player. Instead of the first step in exploring your franchise beginning with a conversation with your franchise sales person, today’s franchise seekers first step is to leverage the internet and go straight to your website, hence the start of the self-directed franchise assessment.
Outsourcing Sales with an experienced franchise marketing and consulting firm. For some franchisors, especially young and smaller franchise systems, this is absolutely the BEST way to go. The Franchisor can basically benefit from having an entire sales team with franchising experience at huge financial savings. Also, an expert marketing firm can bring forward tools, expertise, resources, and talent the Franchisor may never be able to replicate.
