SHOW GUIDE
"There is nothing more satisfying than owning a business and being your own boss"
and those considering franchising their brand should attend the Franchising Your Business seminars, where Ashtons Franchise Consulting, the bfa and Franchise Intelligence will educate on how best to build a franchise network. Offering a further programme of presentations and workshops, the Growing Your Own Business conference is co-located with the exhibition and is free to attend. Here, visitors can gather crucial advice and insights into how best to grow a flourishing venture, as specialists in sales, marketing and PR share insider knowledge. A highlight of the conference, Jamie Bolding, Founder & CEO of media company Jungle Creations, will inspire and motivate audiences as he shares the story of how he has built a multi-million-pound business in the space of a few years. Jamie's keynote presentation, 'The challenges of rapid growth and how to overcome them', will take place on Friday 1 February. He comments: "There is nothing more satisfying than
owning a business and being your own boss. Franchising offers a great route to achieving this and I look forward to sharing some of the challenges and rewards I've experienced as a business owner to help my audience aim high with whatever venture they are planning to grow." Reflecting the diversity and accessibility
of franchising, visitors to the exhibition can explore a range of franchises with investment levels of under £10,000 in the Low-cost Opportunities section of the event, while the HSBC International Pavilion will showcase established overseas brands looking to break into the UK market . Financial institutions look favourably
on franchises over independent start-ups, and the Finance Clinic is a must-visit for anyone wanting to find out more about the funding options available and how to access them successfully. For VIP plus visitors, the HSBC Business Class Lounge, powered by Regus, will provide unique networking opportunities with experts on everything from cyber protection to social media, to lay the foundations for ongoing business success.
Existing franchisees with ambitions to
expand beyond one or two units should register for the Multi-unit Franchise Conference which will run parallel with the exhibition on Friday 1 February. Experts in the sector and successful multi-unit franchisees will share tailored advice and insights into the unique demands and rewards of multi-unit franchising. The bespoke programme of presentations, panel sessions and roundtable discussions allows plenty of opportunity for delegates to pose questions and network. Attendees will leave with a
valuable knowledge-base and the connections to expand their own franchise portfolio. Helen McCulloch, portfolio sales manager for The Franchise Exhibitions, summarises: “We are proud to work with the bfa to bring accredited brands spanning all sectors and investment levels, and a bounty of quality advice and support under one roof for this two-day event. “Visitors will be empowered with the
right information and guidance for them, so that they can build a successful future as their own boss.” l
