Why choose a franchise?

There is no doubt that the current business world is tough, competitive, demanding and increasingly uncertain. Uncertainty over salary, pensions, prospects, downsizing and cost savings are some of the factors that can demotivate some of the best and most skilled business performers.

At some point in their career many professionals start to experience some or all of the following feelings

• Undervalued by their employer
• There must be more to life / I want my life back
• How can I get more control of my future?
• I want to create personal long term wealth and value from my efforts
• Can I earn more by doing things differently?
• Should I go 'out on my own'

Most employees will battle on never knowing 'what might have been' but some will decide to make the leap into 'self employment' and investing in a franchise is one way of reducing the risk working within a proven and well supported system.

Some interesting facts about franchising from the NatWest Franchise Survey 2011:

• Average age of a new franchisee – 39
• Average amount of years a franchisee has been running their business – 8.4
• Franchisees reporting profitability – 90%
• Average initial outlay for setting up a franchise - £81,900

The next step in career progression

Investing in a franchise could be the best option for you if you are looking to leave corporate life. If you have the skills and experience in your chosen sector Tinderbox could help you achieve the wealth and lifestyle you seek.

Perhaps you have already made the decision to work for yourself but are finding it difficult to attract clients outside your personal network or are being tempted into contracts that you know you really are not capable of delivering – again Tinderbox can help.

We have two levels of franchise available, the Tinderbox Associate Partner and The Tinderbox Regional Specialist. The Associate Partner willsuit those looking to build their own region within Tinderbox and the Regional Specialist will suit those lookng to deliver quality assignments on our behalf.

Potential franchisees should be aware that they are not “buying a job” and that considerable skill and effort will be required to make their chosen franchise succeed but if the idea of “working for yourself but not by yourself” appeals then a franchise could well be the answer and if you meet our criteria then Tinderbox could be the franchise for you.
