Key Steps in Developing a Franchise in SA

Franchise Assessment

Franchise assessment determines whether a business is franchisable, and based on industry factors, financial performance, available capital, and growth goals, whether or not a business should be franchised.

Legal Compliance

This step includes developing, issuing, and maintaining a registered Franchise Disclosure Document, preparing financial performance representations, complying with franchise laws, protecting trademarks, and enforcing franchise agreements that create and maintain the franchisor-franchisee relationship.

Forming the Franchise Company

Forming a new franchise company that offers and sell franchises, training and support of franchisees, and generate revenues comprised of franchise fees, royalties, and other franchise related activities.

Operations Manual Development

Developing and maintaining a franchise operations manual that advises franchisees on training requirements, system standards, and on-going requirements related to the development and operations of the franchised business.

Sales Strategy & Brand Positioning

Setting a franchise sales strategy and building website, digital, and video media that communicates the value proposition of the franchise offerings, brand story, and franchisee transformation.

This step also includes developing franchise sales processes, presentations, and media that engages with franchisee candidates, informs them about the potential advantages of the franchise offering, and guides them through the discovery process where both franchisor and prospective franchisee evaluate if they are a good fit.

System Growth Strategy

This strategy includes training, coaching, and monitoring franchisee performance, enhancing brand standards, and implementing KPI driven improvements, marketing initiatives, and system standards focused on improving customer experience, increasing system-wide sales and profitability.
