Today we are joined by CEO and Brand President of ‘The Little Gym’ Nancy Bigley. Nancy has decades of experience in the franchise space, starting with the operations side with American Leak Detection, where she grew the company from 45 to 165 locations in her 12 years.
Nancy discussed the process of franchising and she pointed out a very important fact and that is it takes time to get to know your potential franchise.
“What I've always told candidates you have is if you're going to be a franchisee, you have to love systems, you have to love process. And you have to be an open collaborator, because if you come into a brand, where somebody will come in then immediately ask how can they create their own programs? And how much leeway do they have to change up and create their own programs.”
That is not why a person gets into a franchise. You get into a franchise so that you don't have to do all of the creation of systems and processes and marketing materials. You are buying into an infrastructure and the programs that a franchisor created.
Nancy has also focused on kids businesses that are evolving fast and giving a boost to the franchisees. You can also get lots of information and ideas from Nancy if you are thinking about having a franchise of your own..
As technologies develop, the objective of franchisors is to make efficiencies for franchisees so they can stay zeroed in on their business without redundancies.
To drive deals franchisees need to know the speediest, most straightforward method for utilizing stages and systems.
