As a localpeople franchisee you would run your own localpeople website covering the area you live in. A localpeople website provides everything the community needs to know about your local area, and provides an online space where local people can post messages, events, pictures, business reviews and create their own groups.
Your passion for your local area would be the key to your success in creating a vibrant local website for your community, scooping all the local news and prompting lively discussions and debate online. You would be responsible for delivering great local leads to businesses interested in reaching your users, and your passion will result in local advertisers jumping on board.

We already have evidence of a huge existing audience. Over 800,000 people visit localpeople sites each month, generating over 2 million page views. What is more, localpeople visitor numbers and page views are up 30% in the past 6 months, demonstrating the huge potential for growth in the business. localpeople is already an established community hub with a huge engaged audience that you can become a part of.
Running a localpeople franchise will be financially rewarding. With a localpeople franchise, you could build a monthly income of well over £5,000. With ambition, hard work and determination franchisees can drive to build an income well into five figures, and once there your customers pay on a repeat basis, so even if you take some time off, the money keeps rolling in.
localpeople gives you the flexibility to work the hours that you want on your own terms, from wherever you want, giving you unrivalled control over your work-life balance. You also don't need to worry about the hassle of dealing with stock or securing a property to work from.
More than anything else, franchisees have to be friendly and personable to be successful. Running a localpeople franchise is about becoming the centre of your community, and championing its interests. You need to get out and speak to people, understand their needs, gain their trust and help them find solutions.

Localpeople will provide extensive support and training to help hone your skills and succeed. We will train you to produce concise, informative articles that will help start debate on a system that, though second-to-none in technology stakes, is also extremely quick and easy to use.
