Mathnasium Franchisor of the Year
Since its acquisition by the new Master Franchisee, John Preston, in March 2020, Mathnasium has undergone an evolution, becoming a robust powerhouse of technology, resources, skills, and ambition.
“I stepped into the role of franchisor with a clear vision of the necessary changes.
We’ve listened to the network, taken decisive action, and made tough decisions to unlock the full potential of the brand. Two years on, our franchise stands among the best,” says John.
Utilising Mathnasium’s proprietary business management system, Radius1, the franchise gathers and analyses data to enhance the network’s overall performance. These successful strategies, tested in company-owned centres, are adopted by all franchisees, fostering a growth- oriented mindset. Mathnasium places equal importance on franchisee profitability and expansion, with more than 40% of the network now operating multiple units.
Mathnasium places a strong emphasis on providing comprehensive training to empower its franchisees. This well-rounded training covers
essential areas like premises acquisition, lease negotiation, and a wide range of teaching methods, equipping franchisees for success. In addition to a dedicated UK support team, Mathnasium offers access to the substantial 103-member US support team, further enhancing their support structure.
A notable addition in 2022, the ‘School Pick-Up’ initiative extends the reach of Mathnasium’s services. This innovative scheme involves trained staff members picking students up directly from school and safely escorting them to Mathnasium centres.
