Many Australians are developing an entrepreneurial spirit, and there are many opportunities in the world of business, not least franchises, which offer the entrepreneur 100% support. In this short article, we take a look at some of the industries where franchising is popular.
- Contract Cleaning – There are several national brands that offer franchises throughout Australia; they supply you with an auto scrubber machine and all the other hardware you need to maintain commercial flooring. The franchiser supports you all the way, and you have to pass the interview; what we mean by that is the franchiser must deem you suitable to be a franchisee. What are they looking for? They want people who are hardworking, dedicated and willing to learn, those with the right disposition to manage their own business.
- Car Detailing – If you are a car lover, what better business to run than a car detailing company? There is a huge demand, as working people do not have the time to wash and clean their vehicle, and there are even franchises where you visit the customer and detail the car at their home or office. This requires a fully operational mobile workshop, which you purchase from the franchiser, plus they manage all your marketing and product acquisition.
- Tyre & Exhaust Shop – You probably know some of the national brands that operate tyre and exhaust shops, where the products are fitted while you wait. The investment is significant, as you need hydraulic ramps and other essential equipment; contact the franchiser for more information.
- Computer Repairs – Many computer users are not IT proficient, and when they have computer issues, they typically search online for a local computer repair specialist. Several large companies are offering franchises in many areas of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, and if you are computer literate, you would be ideal for this business.
