The Body Wise for Women Investment
Franchising is not complicated;
it is simply a licensing agreement between an investor/operator
and our company allowing the use of our Trade Name and Operational
Systems. While we can not guarantee success, we promise to give
you the investor, the right tools to make it possible. We will
find you the best location available and provide you with training,
continuing support and product sourcing. While the final choice
of location is ours, your comments and own analysis of location
are appreciated. We will assist you with both financing and
financial planning by developing individual budgets and cash
flow plans for each new location. You will know in advance all
investment costs related to your store construction, inventory,
working capital and so forth. Working together promotes nothing
but success!
Timing
The timing of opening up a business
depends on many factors, including your personal timetable.
Naturally, location availability and training time must also
be considered. Once a location is available, the average time
to open a Body Wise for Women location is two months; building
and equipping the location can take anywhere from thirty to
forty five days.
Prerequisites
To qualify, no special background
is required and you do not need previous business experience.
You must however, have a desire to succeed in a business of
your own, a willingness to work hard, suitable business acumen
and a certain net worth. As well as financial qualification,
potential franchisees must have a certain amount of personable
flair and be able to communicate readily with ease. It is important
that your energy level, personality, and aptitude are compatible
with the type of business you wish to own.
Site Location
The selection process of the Body
Wise for Women site is very important. While competition in
the area has to be analyzed very carefully, the population,
area growth rate and traffic patterns are all major considerations.
Experienced Body Wise for Women management will control lease
negotiations, location design and construction budget for you.
They will negotiate the lowest possible rent and the highest
amount of tenant construction allowances that are available.
The final location however, is approved by both the franchisee
and management.
Setting Up the Financial Plan
Every business requires detailed
financial plans and budgets. Our computer accounting systems
allow us to prepare individual projections and analysis of each
location before and after it opens. We offer assistance and
feedback on business plans for financial institutions. Our qualified
accounting staff is always available to assist you with any
problems that may arise.
