Looking forward to going back to the same old grind after the holidays? If not, it could be time to reconsider your options for the future. Could a franchise help?

Can you believe we’re two thirds of the way through 2024 already? Are you where you hoped to be by this point in the year? Don’t worry if not. There’s still time for you to make this the year you start achieving your ambitions – especially if those ambitions include running your own successful business!

Whilst we sincerely hope you’re enjoying some well-earned downtime, this natural break in the year could also be a great opportunity for you. If your goal is to run a business, this could be your chance to do some serious research into your options. Maybe a FASTSIGNS franchise is one of them?

We completely understand investing in a franchise is a huge decision, and you need to be sure you have all the right information at your disposal. Our website is a great place to start, and you can also download our free brochure. But we also wanted to help you out by answering three of the biggest questions we get asked about the FASTSIGNS franchise and how it can work for you:

  • How much training will I receive, and how will it help me succeed?

One of the single biggest advantages of joining a well-established franchise, like FASTSIGNS, is knowing you can tap into decades of experience from the very best in the industry, which is exactly what our training programme is designed to do. We absolutely believe franchising is a two-way street where your success and our success are closely tied together, often for many years to come. Which is why we do all we can to equip you with the skills and tools so you can achieve your goals as a business owner.

Our training starts with learning the ins and outs of running a FASTSIGNS business, and will include everything from sales, operations, and marketing through to signage production itself. Even after your initial training is finished, you’ll receive continuous learning designed to always keep you ahead of the competition and stand out for all the right reasons. 

  • Can FASTSIGNS help me build my team and recruit the right people?

Yes, absolutely! In fact, helping you to build your signage A-Team is something we pride ourselves on. The FASTSIGNS franchise is designed to be accessible to people with any background skillset, and you will be able to recruit a team which complements your strengths. However, we realise finding suitable candidates can be a real challenge, so our Business Consultancy Team will be on hand to help right from your first day. We’ll work closely with you, helping you to understand your staffing needs, and providing you with tailored support throughout the recruitment process.

  • Can you help me find appropriate premises for my new FASTSIGNS centre?

This is going to be an important part of your new adventure – not only do you need somewhere which is fit for purpose in terms of signage manufacture, but also somewhere which is suitable as the beating heart of your new business. Our experienced team can help you find the right secure location which can set you up for success from day one. They have extensive experience in identifying prime locations based on the key factors needed for a successful FASTSIGNS Centre, and can even help you negotiate the best deal for your lease.

Taking the next steps

Like we said, it’s the summer holidays, and you should be taking full advantage of any time off – especially if you need to conserve energy ahead of a big career change in the autumn! However, don’t forget the decisions you make today, impact on your tomorrow, so why not take this chance to improve your future, by stepping up your research?

Whenever you’re ready, our team is always here and happy to help. Who knows? This could be the first step towards something incredible!
