1. Training & Support

For your franchise to be successful, you need to design comprehensive training and support systems to ensure that future franchisees can be equipped with the necessary skillsets to run the operations without your presence. It is best to seek professional help to design the systems if you are unsure.

2. Franchisee Selection

Make sure you have a clear picture of the characteristics in the franchisees that are likely to succeed in running your coin laundry franchise. The success of initial franchisees will propel your franchise to the next level of marketability.

3. Marketing & PR

The importance of marketing and public relations cannot be understated for any business including a franchise. You need to design your marketing systems to reflect a professional image.

4. Relationship Management

Your journey doesn’t stop after selecting the franchisees. Spending time and effort to develop a good and open relationship with your franchisees is crucial to maintain the success and longevity of your franchise.

5. Research & Development

While you may not have the financial means or knowledge to conduct your own R&D on coin laundry technology, you can still leverage on leading coin laundry equipment suppliers such as PLE Laundry Equipment to keep you updated on the latest technological developments in the industry. Constantly updating the technology and service-based knowledge of your franchisees will ensure that they remain ahead of competition in the market, and the continued success of your franchise.
