“Talk to How2Franchise ”

★★★★★

written by theawardspeople on 16/07/2021

I cannot recommend having a conversation with the person I dealt with highly enough. He is the go to person in the UK for franchising and his advice has always been honest, transparent and true. He charges nothing for an introductory chat and exploration of your business.

“I had always wanted to franchise my business,”

★★★★★

written by Kaleb1993 on 29/06/2021

I had always wanted to franchise my business, but I kept putting it off as I was unsure I had the knowledge or time to make it a success. I was not even sure it would work. During my initial meeting with the adviser he instantly made me feel at ease and he also had the belief that it was a great idea. He explained how everyone feels it is a massive step franchising their business but with the help of him and his team they made it seem an extremely simple process. With him confirming my thoughts he gave me the support and confidence to go ahead into the franchise world. I am so grateful that the adviser and the How 2 Franchise Team have held my hand throughout the whole process. I look forward to my regular update meetings with the adviser each time he brings great ideas and supports me with anything I need help with. Another adviser is excellent at organising things, always gets straight back to me with any questions I have and supports me to produce any information I need to. 10 out of 10 for excellent customer support. The teams vast experience and knowledge in franchising has made the whole process so simple, where before we met, I had no clue where to begin. There is no way I could have successfully launched franchising without their extensive knowledge, help and support. I would highly recommend the team to anyone looking to franchise their business. Thank you so much

“They are not honest people”

★☆☆☆☆

written by AdrienneStrong on 02/08/2020

As a business trying to franchise,They sell you a generic franchise template that may not apply to your business. You won't know this until you get the template. You spend 5k or more on a template document that has over 300 pages they expect you to read through and understand. They call it the operation manual. But what they dont tell you is that it is a generic manual. The Leads they provide are no good. You'll see. They take advantage of people with little knowledge of franchising their business.

We have no record of this person.

The ops manual costs £499 and is sold as a template.

“He was very honest and upfront”

★★★★★

written by Lacig399 on 26/05/2020

He was very honest and upfront about that when we first met. I’d consulted quite a few franchise professionals before that, and had quotes running into many tens of thousands of pounds from them. I knew that I would have to do most of the donkey work myself, as the tachograph analysis business is very specialist and unique, and the franchise manual would have to be written by me. I also knew that the franchise contract would be 95% from a template, and adapted for my business, not bespoke. So when he quoted his charges, and what they would do for me, it was a bit of a leap of faith on my part, as it would have been so easy to get payment and do very little in return. In the event, everything which was promised was delivered. They held my hand at every step along the way of recruiting my first “real” franchisee after having tested for a couple of years with two mates.They attended at franchise exhibitions, met with me and potential franchisees, and conducted the whole process through to the signature and cheque. It was worth every penny of the commission paid to them. Bear in mind that my business is very niche, and I believe unique in the franchising world. So they could only apply their own expertise to an unknown business model. No template for this one! But they took the time to ask the right questions, and understood the opportunity of a huge market, with very little in the way of competition. So do I trust them? Yes. No bull.., and delivered what they promised at the price they promised. Would I recommend them? Unreservedly. Hope this helps.

“a second time user of How2”

★★★★★

written by Seamus164 on 04/02/2020

How2Franchise has been a key factor in helping us to grow our business and supply a solid framework for our company to continue expanding internationally. The team at H2F are a pleasure to deal with, our franchise manager is one of a kind and we would not consider going with any other company after meeting with him. He explains everything in a way that is jargon free and really cares about the success of our business, franchising can be an absolute minefield of information and manuals that need to be right, the team at H2F do everything they can to prepare you for upscaling of your business in a way that isn't overwhelming. Their support and knowledge along this journey has been invaluable"

“How2Franchise OffersTHEBEST…”

★★★★★

written by Royf26 on 11/01/2019

How2Franchise OffersTHEBEST… Two years ago we had an idea to build a business that we could franchise. A local community website that levelled the playing field between major high street stores and local independent businesses, we had a mission to ‘Keep the Local Pound in the Local Economy’. But what was it going to cost, would it work and how would we get it to market? Well with Rod’s input we built our own franchise, successfully traded and tested the business and we’re proud to say that just 8 months after our official Franchise Launch we now have 15 Franchisees going to market with more signing up on a weekly basis. We have a business that truly does what is says on the can and we believe that we have the best franchise deal and opportunity available today! Oh and we really do ‘Keep the Local Pound in the Local Economy’! But it wasn’t always that way, as I say two years ago it was just an idea with a steep learning curve ahead, and believe me it is a steep curve. Franchising is not for the faint hearted. The first steps were to build a dummy site and then talk to the professionals and test our concept and theories. We shopped around and spoke to the BFA took recommended contacts and listened to their wise words and… staggered at their huge fees. Franchising is also not for the short pocketed! That’s when we were recommended to speak to How2Franchise… Rod not only presented a financially viable and professional common sense solution, he also brought to the table practical and valuable advice and guidance. His team were efficient, quickly learning and understanding our business model and working together, we soon had all our legal documents and franchise manual… professional, accurate and at a price that we could afford! How2Franchise continue to be a great asset to our company and I would highly recommend any Franchisor or potential Franchisor to put them on your ‘definitely worth a chat to fist!

“May 2018 Having a multi award winning prestigous...”

★★★★★

written by ItzelBrady on 13/06/2018

May 2018 Having a multi award winning prestigous brand to franchise, we investigated the options available to us very thoroughly. After some enquiry and consultation, we opted to invite Rod Hindmarsh and How2franchise to assist us in preparing our brand for the marketplace and also to assist us in procuring suitable franchisees. We have never regretted our choice. The support and professional approach of the team at How2franchise has proved invaluable in assisting us to generate administrative forms, consider the financial and legal considerations and generally smooth out the process and significant learning curve. Despite the fact that our franchise involves significant capital investment, we now have two positive locations in the pipeline and we feel confident that Rod and his team will assist us to negotiate this next part of the process. I have no hesitation in recommending How2franchise to any potential franchisor. regards

“H2F they’ve taken the time to learn about our business”

★★★★★

written by Dunnkl15 on 22/09/2017

We use H2F because they’ve taken the time to learn about our business, because they’re as enthusiastic about the unique opportunity it presents as we are, and because they’re doing everything for us up until, and after, the face-to-face meeting with prospective franchisees. Because they understand it, they can present it well. Because they’re enthusiastic they can sell it well. And because they are experienced they guide us well through the minefield of franchise regulations, legislation, and best practice. That leaves us to concentrate on running the business, ensuring further growth and expansion. Kind regards

“Wow what a start to the year 2017”

★★★★★

written by KennaNicholson on 28/07/2017

Wow what a start to the year 2017, I want say a big thank you, the How2franchise team, for your efforts and patience, guidance and support in helping me get my franchising idea off the ground. With the support and guidance you have given, we were able to start 3 new franchisees on their way to creating new businesses for themselves. You’re very clear and in-depth analysis of the opportunity helped to put my thinking about franchising my business into practice and to arrive at a decision to move forward with the franchising of our business. Without your very clear and concise explanation as to the possibilities I would probably not have fully grasped the depth of the opportunity. I have now moved forward the formation of 3 new Franchises thus which in the following months we will be expanding the opportunity throughout the UK with a network possibilities of up to 10 franchised businesses. Having looked at and been put off franchising in the past, I was very impressed with the professional and very knowledgeable manner from the How2 franchise team and I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking into the franchising concept.

“I was overwhelmed”

★★★★★

written by DavinBoone123 on 08/01/2016

When I first started to look into becoming a franchisor for my swim school Swim with Style which I had been running for 20 years. I was overwhelmed at all the choices I had and soon started to doubt that I would do anything. This was my baby and could I ever find the right people to help me grow it? HOW” helped clear the clouds and educated me on the world of franchising. Thanks to you I have signed up my first franchisee and am currently looking at my next I couldn't be happier with the support that HOW2 has provided. I am absolutely positive that this is the way to go if you are worried but looking for that extra help and encouragement prior to signing your first!
