Recruitment & Training
How do you recruit good franchisees? And then ensure that they recruit the right front line staff? What should you do to get value from training?
If you are taking the Master Franchisee route then finding the right one will be crucial. Negotiations should focus on the requirements of your business and progress carefully but firmly. Experience of Master Franchisee negotiations is invaluable.
The franchisee recruitment process should start with clear and honest descriptions of the job and the desirable knowledge and personal characteristics of the ideal person. Selection processes must enable the franchisor to confidently predict an applicant's success as both in running a business and as a team member. Similarly, each job in a franchise outlet needs to be properly documented and the information used to target the right employees that will add value to the business.
Franchisees must be well trained if they are to maximise their potential and deliver required profitability. A training programme is required that has real, measurable objectives including the structured transfer of information and skills that together will produce achievement. Franchisees will be recruited with different work experience bringing with them different skills. Training must therefore be tailored to each individual's needs. In turn, staff moving through the employee system will become the franchisee's responsibility, but they must be trained to your performance standards.
Additionally there is the complication of the national language of the country that you are targeting.
