Franchising is simply a proven method for doing business
A collective pool of owners band together to develop brand recognition, share knowledge, education and ideas as well as use their combined strength in purchasing and market dominance. It ultimately combines the entrepreneurial drive of a small business with the resources of a larger company.

The franchise advantage:

* Franchise businesses account for 42% of all retail sales in the United States
* Franchise businesses employ more than 8.5 million Americans
* Studies show that less than 5% of franchised businesses are closed each year
* 62% of non-franchised business close within their first 5 years
* 1 out of every 12 businesses is a franchise business
* A new franchised business opens every 8 minutes

How does Proforma fit into the franchising equation?
Unlike most franchises, Proforma is a business-to-business franchise model, which means:

* No retail hours
* Lower initial investment
* High repeat business
* Business built on relationships, not location

Proforma businesses are built on quality relationships, unlike retail franchises, which depend on quantity of customers to be successful. What is franchising chart? Most Proforma owners have between 15-20 companies as clients with an average of 2-4 contacts within each organization. Clients include purchasing managers, event planners, marketing directors, controllers, human resources professionals - the list goes on and on.

As a Proforma owner, you aren't just "buying a franchise". You are investing in a system to utilize our brand name, operating systems, marketing clout, educational tools, technology and ongoing support.

Although government statistics show that franchising is expected to be the leading method of doing business in this century, you really must determine if this is the right fit for you. We encourage you to contact franchise owners as well as research us through the International Franchise Association (IFA). Always feel free to contact us with any questions.
