At Animal Smart Franchise, we often get asked whether it is possible to operate a pet franchise from home and our answer has always been ‘yes.’ Having a small home office, or even an Ipad, printer and phone is all it takes to manage your Animal Smart franchise.
Starting a franchise is an easy way to start a business as you are completely guided by people who have already done the hard set up for you. Unlike any regular business, operating a pet franchise business can be beneficial in a lot of ways, especially because of the flexibility you get to enjoy.
If you love animals, there are many reasons you consider operating your own pet business and we have compiled some of the top reasons why you shouldn’t hesitate in following your passion for animals.
- Reduced Risk
Starting your own pet business from scratch can be expensive, as you need to invest not just money but also lots of time into getting the business off the ground. The time required to create websites, artwork/designs, legal contracts and operating systems all comes at a cost.
As an Animal Smart Franchisee we have done all the hard work for you. We provide you with everything you need (and more) to not just get your business started but build a successful business into the future.
- Enjoy extensive franchise support
In as much as you have a passion for animals, you don’t have to worry about not having enough experience in running a business. Joining our franchise network means you can expect to be trained and to receive all the support you need to hit the ground running.
As we are personal small franchise, our franchisees have the direct contact numbers of the franchisors, who also act as business mentors, which means our franchisees really get best direct support possible.
We provide our franchisees with step by step initial training to get the business launched and then regular catch up sessions to make sure you have everything you need and are on track to take your business where you plan.
- Lower failure rate
The stats don’t lie…It is a well known fact that start up businesses have a high failure rate. This failure rate is massively reduced when the start up is part of a franchise.
The model available at Animal Smart Franchise has been tried and tested and the team have vast experience in both the pet and franchise sectors.
- Flexibility of work hours
Another advantage of operating your own pet franchise from home is that you get to enjoy the flexibility of working hours. You can choose when to work so you can effectively juggle children or other commitments.
- Enjoy life
One of the huge benefits of operating a pet business is the lifestyle it provides. We have found from speaking to many people, that the attraction of being outdoors with animals is what motivates people to take the step into this sector. This is a business that can be operated at any time of life, including right into and beyond the retirement age, which is a major plus for so many people.
