What is Franchise Marketing?

Marketing is a universal requirement of every business, but when it comes to franchises, there are a handful of extra tasks needed to market effectively.

This includes:

Selling the Services of the Business

Universal to every business, a franchise must market its core services and products across a range of channels

Promoting the Franchise Opportunity

In order to build their network, a franchise needs to market their opportunity to recruit new franchisees

Marketing the Network's Services

Franchises need a solid marketing strategy to give franchisees the confidence they will generate revenue

Building the Franchise Brand

For franchises, brand recognition is incredibly important, for both its perception and overall reputation

Typically, businesses will move into franchising with a good basis for marketing their product or service; after all it's how they led their business into a model that they believe can be replicated effectively through franchising.

But the additional tasks of franchise marketing require expertise to executve effectively, and typically require franchises to look at their business on a more national (or international) level to succeed.

Franchises have a real challenge when it comes to marketing. They not only need to sell their core services and products, but also that of their networks, and the opportunity itself.
