As a WOW 1 DAY PAINTING Franchise Partner, you're about to embark on a journey that requires determination and a willingness to learn. To help you navigate the early days and set your business up for long-term success, we asked a few of our top performing Franchise Partners for their tips on what makes for smooth business operations.
Check out these tips so you can run your business as smoothly as possible from day one.
Focus on what you’re good at
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. It’s a misconception that you need to be good at everything in your business.
Instead, focus on what you're truly great at and dedicate your efforts there. For the areas where you lack expertise, it's best to find people who excel in those areas.
If you excel in sales and marketing, find someone who can help tackle the everyday operations. Or vice versa! Don't exhaust yourself trying to do everything on your own.
By trusting and empowering individuals with different skills and expertise, you can unlock great benefits for both your business and personal life.
Organization is critical
One of the most important skills when operating your franchise is being organized.
Being detail-oriented and mastering time and priority management are essential. With countless tasks competing for your attention in business, it's vital to understand how you allocate your time and focus on what matters most.
Start with buying the essentials
As a new Franchise Partner, there are several purchases you'll need to make to get your business up and running. However, it's wise to avoid buying everything at once.
Start with the essentials, such as your van and branded clothing. For tools and other operational necessities, consider purchasing only what you'll need in the beginning. This approach helps you avoid spending thousands upfront on equipment for jobs you may not encounter in your first few months.
Over time, you'll gain a clearer understanding of the tools and materials required and how frequently they need replenishing.
Take the time to train people properly
When you take care of your team, they will take care of the customers, who ultimately take care of the business. So, invest time in training your employees the right way.
Take the time to find great people from the start and provide them with the necessary training to drive the business forward. By doing this effectively, you'll create the opportunity to focus on other aspects of the business.
Remember: you can teach skills, but it's way harder to teach values, personality and fit.
