For any #HR professionals thinking about setting up an HR consultancy business, go along to one of The HR Dept Franchise Discovery evenings to find out more. I bought one of The HR Dept franchises over 17 years ago, following a similar period of time in corporate life and have never looked back. You grow your business at your own pace, no bureaucratic processes or monthly percentage of revenue payments to calculate - just a simple fixed monthly payment. You own and run your own business but have great support from a central team (legal templates, marketing etc) and invaluable relationships with the wider HR Dept network. #sme #franchise #hr #makingadifference

You may of received a voicemail, email or a call from one of us - and you might be thinking "I already had an overview call about Schooley Mitchell". Remembering us and our brand is great, we appreciate it so much! But that isn't the only reason why we reach out, we want to know more about you, and how you deal with certain scenarios! We want to grow and learn together that way we can both be successful. 📈 We discuss topics like, common fears and hurdles, the emotions that come with change, planning an exit strategy, and so much more! The insight I've learned from having these calls has helped me grow in this position and I couldn't thank the ones who have had these calls with me enough! - thank you for letting me learn with you. 🧠 We will even send you an unbranded article of each topic we discuss with you for you to keep and use whenever and wherever you wish! Lets continue communicating and collaborating!! 🎉

Tell me about a time where you exercised your ability to empathetically listen? This is always one of my interview questions when hiring for a franchise support role. And it’s always one of the qualifications I explicitly list in a job description. It’s an important soft skill when working with franchisees (and really when effectively communicating with anyone). The art of listening gets you to root problems faster; allows you to tailor the support the franchisee needs; builds credibility and trust with your owners; and it helps to neutralize challenging and uncomfortable situations. It’s among the numerous crucial qualities your franchise support team should embody and put into practice. I’m excited to be collaborating with franchisors to enhance and strategize the development of their franchise support teams. In the dynamic world of franchising, effective support structures are key to success. Together we’re creating the right organizational seats, optimizing resources, streamlining processes, and elevating support systems to empower franchisees and drive growth. Here’s a job description to use as a jumping off point when considering creating, expanding or revamping your franchise support team. And if your organization is looking for more guidance, click on my Exploratory Meeting link in my profile’s Featured section. I’m here to help!

Everyone has a role to play…. And as soon as you understand what your role is, the sooner you will attract the right partners/people who fill in the other necessary roles for your business/life. Example: Spoke with a guy who owns 21 McDonald’s franchises. He is someone that makes great money, needs to diversify but doesn’t have the time or knowledge to do his own Real Estate Deals. He connects with a referred operator/investor like me to invest with. This gentleman has realized his role in real estate will strictly be capital. He won’t need to operate the deal, handle construction or tenants. He plays his role, we play ours! As soon as I realized my role within the business I attracted a team that handles other elements of the business. Now we do MILLIONS in development, something I wasn’t doing 2.5 years ago. Know your role!

Whew! What. A. Day. ⭐️Launched our franchise offering. Floored by the immediate outpouring of support and interest! ⭐️Drove 235 miles (including SITTING for 45 mins each way due to road closures!) visiting job sites, checking in on current clients, and taking measurements for a future client’s project. ⭐️ Now taking all of today’s learning/experiences and incorporating it into my brain so I’m that much better next time. Oh, and I’ve been in my role JUST under a month!!! I’m tired. I’m sweaty. Slightly bleary eyed. But I wouldn’t trade this for the world!!! I have my dream position in a growing industry. I’m working for and with people who SEE me. See my skills. What I’m capable of. Who expect me to just show up everyday and be my true genuine self. If this isn’t your work experience hit me up! Maybe you’re in a position in life where you’re ready to be your own boss and buy a franchise (and work for and with the cool people I mentioned before). Maybe you just need that ONE new connection to break into a new job or industry (I’ve got a large diverse network!). Whatever your situation, let me know how I can help you love your job like I love mine!!!

Unlocking Franchise Success: The Strategic Role of General Managers at Voda Cleaning & Restoration! In this enlightening clip, Dan Claps, CFE (CEO of VODA Cleaning and Restoration), CEO of Vota Restoration, unveils the game-changing strategy behind implementing General Managers (GMs) for franchisees. It's not just about expanding the business; it's about strategic alignment and building for long-term success. Contrary to the common misconception of hiring a GM solely to run the business, Voda goes the extra mile. They guide franchisees in structuring a vesting equity schedule for their GMs, transforming them into part owners with equity vesting over multiple years. This unique approach not only aligns the GMs with the company's success but also creates a powerful incentive for them to thrive. Discover the art of cultivating vested partnerships and empowering your team for sustained growth.
