Information to Consider
• There are no guarantees as to the success of the business, however to date of the 17 franchises in existence 13 of them are the original owners
• No franchise has ever gone out of business
• Those that have sold have sold their businesses have done so for substantially more than their original investment
• This is not a get rich quick scheme and typically a franchise will take 1-2 years to reach sufficient critical mass for the business to make a profit
• Overheads are low and linked to turn-over
• The turnaround period is becoming shorter as our infrastructure and skills develop
• The International Association of Professional Brochure Distributors has found that Brochure Distribution companies are long term businesses e.g. Certified Folder the biggest company in the USA has been in existence for over 100 years! and most of the other member companies are at least 20 years or older.
• This is a hands on business and should be run by the owners during the first few years.
