About Us
Throughout the past 22 years in the franchise sector, we often watched clients struggle with the daily work-flows and business processes required to manage a high performance franchise network. From our time as consultants and franchise software distributors to the time we became a technology solutions provider in 2009, our passion has always been about helping Franchisors prosper.
The inspiration for franchizemanager came after being asked by a client to recommend a technology solution to assist with recruitment. We searched the market to find a product that we were comfortable recommending, but simply could not find one that we were willing to stake our reputation on. Not to mention the features were limited and the prices were exorbitant for the majority of franchise networks – still relatively small, but poised for growth. It was in that moment that we started a plan to build and launch what would become franchizemanager.
Starting with a simple system to better manage the recruitment process, franchizemanager has since expanded to include almost every critical area of managing a franchise network based on real-world Franchisor experiences and best practices. In addition, custom built modules can do literally any business function you require.
Our mission is to have the best franchise management system on the market – worldwide. Great functionality for Franchisors, a common sense approach to implementation, rapid customisation and all at a reasonable cost. We look forward to growing with you.
