Training
For our initial training, we host Franchise Owners at our
corporate headquarters in Colorado for two weeks. After that, they
go back to their territory and run their Footprints Floors business
for 6-7 weeks while gaining true on-the-job experience. After this
period, we invite them back to Colorado for an additional week of
training, covering specifics related to their experience working in
the business. We have found this type of training to be extremely
successful and something our Owners rave about!
Ongoing Support
We see it as our responsibility to help Franchise Owners
maximize their revenues and productivity. Because of this, outside
of lead generation assistance and our call center we also offer
regular support calls, webinars, and training modules. We also
foster a support network among our existing Franchise Owners. Like
any family, our Owners constantly look out for each other, offering
a unique support system rarely found in the franchise
industry.
Field Support
Our field support comes mostly from our network of Franchise
Owners who communicate daily through Google Chats. The Google Chats
groups are broken down by region, and we have paid consultants
available to answer any questions or issues that arise.
Marketing
We assist in the creation and maintenance of promotional
materials including direct mail and print ads, consumer relations,
website development, search engine optimization, and the
development of technology. We require Franchise Owners spend $1,000
per territory on local marketing.
Annual Meetings
We host our annual meetings
either in late winter or early spring.
