In addition to the initial £29K, we also recommend that you come into the business with around £30K working capital.
I can't afford this franchise, are there other options for me?
Yes, there are multiple routes into franchising. These alternative routes we offer will still get you to a point in which you can own your own franchise, it may just take a little longer as you build your profits and are able to invest more.
When will I see a return on my investment?
Firstly, we guarantee that if you follow our UK sales process and get yourself in front of a set amount of qualified prospects a month for your first 6 months, you will bank more than £10,000 gross monthly income within your first 7 months of training with us.
You'll also see in your business plan a goal of achieving £1M income from your franchise business.
At this point, if you're interested in the franchise opportunity, we'd recommend you speak with one of our advisors and attend a discovery day where you'll get into the details.
