This programme is written by multi award winning franchisor and franchise consultant Jo Middleton. Jo walks the walk and doesn't just talk the talk, having franchised her own businesses and also used the SCALE™ Franchise System with her 1:1 clients to set them up for success in the franchising world.

Franchising a business can seem like a minefield.

Just knowing who to trust that isn't going to rip you off can be scary.

SCALE™ helps you have absolute clarity and vision on where you are now to where you want to go and shows you how to get there.

Quite often business owners don't know where to start with franchising their business.

Or they go through the process spending tens of thousands of pounds and come out not knowing how to sell franchises or who their prospective franchisees are.

SCALE™ provides you with everything you need to know, supports you in taking the actions and gives you ongoing learning.

Not only that, you instantly have a fabulous network in your peers. They will become your new biggest cheerleaders willing you to succeed all with different backgrounds, contacts and skillsets.

As a certified franchisor with SCALE™, franchising your business is no longer a mountain to climb and makes it easily achievable for you.

SCALE™ Franchise Certification

This is the first time I have ever made my core framework for franchising your business available.

SCALE™ encompasses everything and takes nothing for granted.

Here's how it looks:

MODULE 1

Operation Manuals

How to write your Operations Manual (the nuts and bolts of successfully running your business) and what to include to set your franchisees up to successfully run your business in their areas without watering it down or compromising your business.

MODULE 2

Territory Mapping

What can and can't be done by a franchisee in their territory (the area you allow them to run their business in) and how to map out territories successfully.

MODULE 3

Franchise Prospectuses

First impressions count and this is often the first detailed information someone interested in becoming a franchisee will see. You will learn exactly what to include and what graphics to use.

MODULE 4

Franchisee Training Plan

Building the correct system to train your new franchisees means that you will be doing the leg work once and you can roll it out time and time again.

MODULE 5

Successfully Onboarding Franchisees

This is a golden nugget that I see consistently under achieved. Having a robust onboarding process including all the elements in this module will help them hit the ground running and expedite your franchisees becoming brand advocates.

MODULE 6

Business Plans & Cash Flow Forecasts

Building out the business plans and cashflow forecasts not just for your head office franchise business but also for your prospective franchisees too.

MODULE 7

Where to find Franchisees

Profiling your ideal franchisees using my 4 P's system and accurately finding where they hang out online and offline in bulk so can get in front of them in groups.

MODULE 8

Franchise Community

The importance of a community for both you, your franchisees and your prospective franchisees and how to build them successfully.

MODULE 9

Franchisor Marketing Strategy

Building a robust marketing strategy, defining your franchise business long term goals and how to expedite them through your distinct and sustainable marketing strategy.

MODULE 10

Franchisee Recruitment Strategy

Building your franchisee sales funnel and what to incorporate on Discovery Days.

MODULE 11

Legalities

What exactly each legal document in franchising is, when you need them during your franchising journey.

MODULE 12

Evaluation

What to measure, how to get the right feedback and incorporate it to grow your franchise whilst maintaining your wellbeing and work/life balance.

To gain your Certification I will guide you through how to complete your exam to achieve accredited and certified franchisor status.

To make sure that you have all the support (and more!) that you need to gain your certificate, for the duration of your SCALE™ programme you will also be privy to:

• an exclusive Facebook group where you can share and learn together. You will have unlimited access to me and your fellow students to ask as many questions as you have (no such thing as a silly question.)

• ongoing support for 4 weeks after your programme ends to hand hold you through the submission of your exam.

Together you will work through the modules and complete the steps to gain your Certification.

INVESTMENT

Flexible ways to pay

There are three buying options – in full, over four months and over twelve months.  I know that franchising your business is an investment that you have carefully considered and so I wanted to make payment plans that would work for all budgets.

Meet Jo Middleton...

I took that franchise nationwide and am just piloting another.

I provide employment opportunities for many.

I own several franchise territories for another brand. This helps me see things from both a franchisor and a franchisee perspective.

I’ve won numerous awards, been quoted on FORBES, appeared on a television panel, been featured as a case study in Alison Edgar MBE’s best selling book “Smash It!”, had countless media articles and been on the radio a few times too.

I am proof that you can do this with your business too.

But you can do it with expert knowledge on tap and gain a recognised and highly respected qualification in the process.

I’ve got a wealth of first hand industry information to share. I walk the walk and don’t just talk the talk.

Since 2007 I’ve been studying the habits of successful entrepreneurs. I have even been coached and mentored by some of the world's leading business coaches and property developers including world class franchisor Mr Action Coach himself, Brad Sugars.

You never stop learning and learning should always be made fun! Death by powerpoint delivered by a monotone man in a grey suit is a no-no in my eyes zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I can't wait to work with you on your business ❤️
