Hands-on franchising at The National Franchise Exhibition
Seminars details
There are a number of franchises which suit those with practical hands-on skills, who enjoy meeting new people and getting out and about.
These franchises need people to become skilled in a certain trade, such as electrician services, domestic services, selling or home improvement. The franchisor will usually offer training and support in skills development.
Other franchise models are 'hands on' in the sense that they offer the franchisee to be trained to deliver trades franchises services directly, and be trained in plumbing, locksmith services, or whichever trade it may be, to operate on a sole operator franchise basis, from a branded van basis. Usually the van will also be kitted out, part of the franchise package and franchisor's business model. Such trades franchisees can often become a management franchise, from starting out as a sole operator, employing further staff and getting more vans on the road in the franchisees territory.
