Franchise training and support are vital to the success of any new franchise business. Any good franchisor will show that your success is their top priority by providing the best training and ongoing support possible.
In fact, one of the great benefits of franchising is that franchise owners are never on their own; they get to rely on a proven business model, which they can master through the training that franchisors offer.
At Shipley Do-Nuts, we know that for our franchisees to succeed, we need to provide them with all the preparation, tools, and knowledge they need from the start to get their donut franchise up and running.
Our Best-in-Class Franchise Training and Support
While we are looking for franchise candidates with previous business ownership experience, we still provide top-notch training and support to all of our franchisees because we know that these are essential for the success of their businesses. Our experts are committed to ensuring you’re ready to take full advantage of our robust industry from when your doors open.
Site Selection
When it comes to opening a new business, location is everything. This is why our team of experts will help you select the right spot for your donut shop, not to mention also support you with the build-out process. When we help you with site selection, we’ll take into account the following aspects:
- Demographics
- Traffic patterns
- Ease of parking
- Competition
- Visibility
Part of this process will involve assisting you with the build-out process, providing you with the design and layout of a typical Shipley Do-Nuts shop. We’ll provide you with specifications on the following:
- Fixtures
- Furnishings
- Color schemes
- Equipment
- Point-of-sale systems
- Displays
- Signs and accessories
It doesn’t end there, though. Regardless of your background, we’ll provide you with comprehensive pre-opening training.
