“Despite the economic climate there are still opportunities for business growth”. This is the message from Fraser Brown solicitors which, together with other professional services, is holding a half-day seminar looking at the option of franchising.
The event, on 12 February at Fraser Brown’s Friar Lane offices, will give business people the opportunity to evaluate franchising in greater depth and find out more about how it could benefit them. Experts from Tenon, HSBC, Business Link and Fraser Brown will be on hand to answer questions and provide an independent appraisal on some of the issues that may arise when considering franchising.
Patrick Wood, Head of Franchising at Fraser Brown, explained the reasons behind the event. “Despite the economic uncertainty, many banks are still willing to lend on franchising activity, making it an attractive option for those looking to raise capital or build their business.
“This seminar will allow people to find out about the funding on offer to prospective franchisors, the accounting procedures and controls and the legal frameworks that are required.”
Emma Hanson, Head of Business Development at Tenon Outsourcing added ‘Franchising offers a great way for people to grow their business but it is vital that people understand exactly what it means to franchise and the benefits and risks involved which is why a seminar like this provides such a useful overview. Even if you have not considered franchising as a route to build your business it would be worth attending to gather more information and see if it could be a viable route for you.’
Spaces on the seminar are limited on this free seminar and should be reserved in advance. Contact Senita Vohra-Copley at senita.vohra-copley@tenongroup.com or call 0115 948 9658 to guarantee your place.
