ighterLife has offered franchise opportunities since 1996 and its counsellor network has a strong history of supporting overweight and obese people in losing weight safely and quickly.
are superbly placed to profit from this growing market.
LighterLife combines a VLCD programme (very low calorie diet) with single sex, group counselling sessions. This combination allows people to lose weight at a sensible pace whilst dealing with the emotional aspects of why they overeat.
Anne Matterface, a franchisee and LighterLife counsellor for Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill, East Sussex, invested into her LighterLife franchise in 2008.
Anne was attracted to becoming a LighterLife franchisee as she enjoys working for herself but with the “solid mothership” that working within a franchise environment brings. “Working as a franchisee allows you to enjoy the benefits of working for yourself but also gain all the extra support that is needed to succeed – from medical to marketing,” says Anne. All LighterLife franchisees are allocated an exclusive and protected territory as well as business start-up support and industry- leading training, which leads to a professional qualification. If you are a good communicator looking to join a nationally recognised organisation with a proven business format contact the LighterLife Franchise Development Team to request an information pack. n
