A Business with Recognised Success
Many business owners dream of running their
own business and having their brand become a household name. However, in
reality, there are very few brands that we love and recognise on a national and
global scale. Opening a retail business is a large investment and it can often
be difficult to establish a brand, build a customer base and stand out from
competitors on the high street.
However, Mail
Boxes Etc. have thrived on their local high street while many other brands
have fallen by the wayside.
So what’s the difference between starting a
business from scratch and investing in a proven franchise model in the retail
sector?
One of the major benefits of investing in a
retail franchise is being part of an established brand and customer base. When
starting from scratch it can take a huge amount of time and effort to build
customer trust and awareness but, when joining a franchise network, the
majority of the work has already been done. Mail Boxes Etc. can offer an established and well-known brand to
franchisees who join their network and they really know how to stay ahead in
the retail sector.
When it comes to thriving on the high
street, Mail Boxes Etc.’s secret is
constant innovation. They continuously introduce new products and services to
their business to help franchisees stay ahead of their competition. Where many
other brands may only be able to offer a specific service, Mail Boxes Etc. can monitor changes in their market and respond to
customer demand accordingly.
“Investing
in a retail franchise really is a great move for anyone struggling to find
their own niche on the high street. Franchising offers a proven business model
and a great opportunity to build a thriving business with the added comfort of
being under the franchise umbrella. Starting from scratch is just too many eggs
in one basket for some business owners!” explains Heather Hannant, Head of Franchise
Development.
Mail
Boxes Etc. is the only high street chain to offer
consumers and local companies a truly comprehensive range of business services.
Their high street, one-stop-shop concept offers its customers a mix of
international and national shipping, mailbox rental, postal services, printing
and copy services to mention a few. With 1,600 stores in five continents
including over 155 in the UK and Ireland, they are one of the world’s largest
non-food retail franchises, and continue to grow year on year.
