“Every business sometimes needs a little help, and that need is keeping business consulting and staffing franchises growing. In addition to nearly double the number of business consulting franchises, there is also a new emphasis on companies offering small-business… consulting services.”
*Senior-care services:
“As the world ages, the senior-care industry… is maturing.”
*Personal-care services:
“Baby boomers may be young at heart, but their desire to look young as well has spurred the growth of franchises offering laser, skin-care, med-spa, massage, fitness and tanning services.”
*Enrichment learning programs for kids:
“When it comes to learning programs for children, the segment increased by 850-plus units.”
*eBay drop-off stores:
“The largest global online marketplace has been creating opportunities for all, including franchises that list and sell items for those lacking eBay savvy.”
Food:
“Franchises and their customers will never go hungry.”
*New and unique concepts:
“Innovative, original and sometimes wacky ‘franchise’ concepts are starting to shake things up… Cereality… Miami Rice Pudding Co… are among those companies that take existing products and either add a new twist or improve on them.”

My experience stems from buying and selling franchises. I believe in franchising as a wealth creation tool but be sure you don’t become a victim.
If you want to build an international franchise or are simply looking at acquiring a franchise to increase your wealth – always look if you can tick the following check boxes.
My 7 learnings as a successful franchisee (and in order of merit):
Buy the top franchise model in the industry i.e. if Pizza franchise – buy top franchise in the country (the criteria being, 3 -5 years of being number one)
If passionate founders are present – big YES
Strict code of conduct and high operational standards – is there consistency in customer experience throughout the group?
Are franchisees considered as customers? Or is the franchisor looking at a franchisee as a glorified employee – don’t be shy – ask the franchisees.
Are more than the 20% making money (real good money) – otherwise it’s an average franchise – Be very sure you have the capability of being a superstar! Happy customers and profitable franchisees –these are signs indicating the franchisor has his finger on the pulse! Unhappy franchisees and clients is a definite red signal.
Buy in before the big growth is realized – i.e. see the potential for the group and buy in before everyone wants in. No different from the stock market…
Is the franchisor operationally focused or customer-centric? If operationally focused – GET OUT!
Build or buy a franchise with the above in mind and rest assured -you will have a winner!
How cafe owners made spare time for themselves – and more money …
Wendy’s Story
Our business is Cafe Istanbul. It’s a Turkish restaurant in Wellington City, New Zealand. It’s a family-owned business that we’ve run for 11 years now. I look after the front of house, manage the staff and see to sales.
Over the last 6-months to a year, we’ve noticed a big growth in the upper end of Cuba St, where we are situated. There’s a lot more people, a lot more foot traffic, and many bars and cafes are being developed in the street.
There are also a lot of inner city apartments in our area now.
While many of our customers are students, we also cater for those between the ages of 25 and 45; we have quite a few 40th birthday parties here. We also get 21sts and even 60th and 70th birthday parties, so our customer base is quite vast.
Our cafe is very well known. Everyone in the area knows who we are and where we are. Those who haven’t been to us before will always ring up to find out. We have a lot of regular customers.
We obviously want to pitch to the people with the most money, so we’re thinking of aiming at city dwellers, the apartment people, in the next marketing campaign.
These tend to be aged 25 to 35 or 40, have a good disposable income and probably no children or dependants. They have that extra money to spend on going out.
We’re definitely considering opening up for lunch. We have done that once before and there just wasn’t enough foot traffic. But we’ve noticed in recent times that on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday (and even Sunday) there are a lot of people about and they’re all looking for somewhere to have lunch.
We faced several challenges before we met ActionCOACH, particularly regarding staffing in the kitchen (we used to import chefs from Turkey), team building with our front of house team and getting the right people.
Other challenges included putting systems in place that, perhaps, we hadn’t thought of before.
Finding the right staff had always been a big problem … we’d advertise and basically end up just having to take the first available person rather than the right person.
ActionCOACH has given me some really good information and guidelines on how to choose the right person rather than be hasty and choose the wrong person, because when running a restaurant, you need people; people on the floor and not just people who are available to work.
In the past, we were basically happy with what we made from the business. Even though we could probably have made a lot more, we didn’t try.
With putting different systems in place, like managing our booking times and getting more ‘bums on seats’, we’ve been able to increase the number of people we serve, and of course, the number of dollars we take.
So there’s definitely been a really good increase since we’ve started working with ActionCOACH.
