Low Cost Franchises

So what is a low cost franchise? Well I suppose everyone will have a different definition of what they think a low cost opportunity is but for these purposes we will use an investment level of £15,000 or less as the guide price for a low cost franchise.

So does low cost therefore mean low earnings or profit? No, some low or even no upfront investment franchise or business opportunities can represent very high earnings potential. So why would a franchise business sell it a low cost even if the earnings potential was high? Well the initial franchise is generally determined by the cost to set-up which includes training, equipment, product and premises not the actual earnings potential. Sure sometimes with a recognized brand just the area alone will have a impact on the price as the largest the franchise area or territory, the more business will be obtained. That said that’s generally not the case for less known brands or new brands and if a franchise requires a lot of franchisees to provide national coverage and set-up costs are quite low then many will have an initial fee of under £15,000 to try to recruit as many franchisees as quickly as possible to grow their brand and provide a better service to their customers.

Some of the low cost franchises for sale under £15,000 include product distribution, pet related, children fitness and swimming, travel agency and even financial and business advice franchises so there is a huge choice of opportunity even if you are seeking a lower initial investment. The main thing to consider if the “overall” investment, just because a franchise has a low initial fee doesnt mean you won’t need to invest additional funds so when choosing a low cost franchise opportunity make sure you find out about all costs involved before you invest and as always seek professional advice.

Just because a franchise investment is low cost doesnt mean you should not carry out thorough research before you make any commitment. Regardless of initial investment check out the business and seek professional advice.

Gardening Franchises

With gardeners spending a whopping £1.5bn per year on plants for their gardens in the UK gardening is a very high growth and lucrative business sector.  A weekend visit to one of the 2300 UK garden centres and nursery is often a must for UK homeowners, according to a 2016 survey conducted by Horticultural Trades Association.  Horticulture and gardening is an area of interest for many, with middle aged consumers often the big spenders in this industry.

Many choose to employ professional gardeners to perform tasks that they neither have time or inclination for such as;

  • Mowing
  • Hedge cutting
  • Lawn care
  • Landscaping
  • Tree surgery

Gardening franchises that tap into this huge market have been around a long time and some have grown substantial UK businesses via franchising. The beauty of this sort of business is that things grow! Yes silly statement but all of the above will require ongoing attention and therefore make it far easier to grow, excuse the pun, your business. Good gardener are also very hard to find so many of them receive a high level of referral business, probably because of the visibility at customers ( van signage etc ) so can rely a lot less on any ongoing marketing again increasing profitability.

What some of our existing franchisees say

The nice thing with your own business is that you are in control of your success and your future. Working for yourself is safer than working for somebodyelse, as you are in control. Most customers contact you. In my experience most of my customers says yes, straight away. There is no hard sell required. If you are committed, do what you have been shown to do and put in the effort, there is no reason why you won’t be successful.

Bob PullinLawnscience Franchisee, Bristol

Lawn care is something I looked at quite a long time ago, I’ve always wanted to work outside. For over thirty years I had worked for two companies. Working long hours, early starts, late nights and weekends, missing big family occasions. I now wish I had left this behind sooner than what I did. After meeting up with Terry, I did kinda got the feeling that Terry wanted me to be a success in this field. Would I go back to my previous life, my previous career, no I wouldn’t. I’m happy with what I am doing.
