The most important ingredient once you have chosen an outstanding franchise opportunity is yourself. How will you measure up to the business? Select recommend total honesty as you go through the following points. Also, check them off with someone who knows you well and will give a frank response – better bruised feelings than an injured bank balance.

To make the most of the Select Master Franchise you need a positive attitude. At your core is there belief that you can succeed despite external circumstances – that a sound plan will pick them off one by one and bring rewards.

How good are you at excuses?

When selling how often have you reported or even told yourself:
“They didn’t buy because the price was too high”,
“I couldn’t speak to the right person”,
“Nobody wants this sort of product”,
“The adverts are wrong”
“The website doesn’t say the right things”, …
And all the rest.

The better you are at excuses the worse you are likely to be in business. As your own boss those get-outs will only damage your future.

If you think this type of business is for you why not contact us and complete our simple application questionnaire? Based on our 15 years experience in the field the questionnaire is designed to show very simply whether or not you are suited to building a Select Master Franchise.

How methodical are you about dealing with issues?

How much do you put unpleasant things aside ‘to another day’ and only deal with the nicer ones?

If something unexpected occurs, is your instinct to avoid upset or to blame others possibly even confronting them to demand action.
Do you declare that everything will be fine and pour another glass of wine or sit down to have a good think, break the tasks down into manageable parts and then sell your solutions to those who can help?

How good is your track record at conversions – turning leads into sales?

This is all about convincing and motivating other people – and that is not achieved by wearing them down with relentless sales blurb. You will be recruiting Franchise Operators and they are the ones who will be generating the income you share in. The better your recruitment and subsequent support, the higher performance you will achieve with them.

How good are you are at basic administration – ensuring that payments both in and out flow on a regular cycle?

Do you have the patience to provide the necessary training to the Franchise Operators whom you recruit?

If you honestly rate yourself highly on these criteria, you need to be talking to the Select Franchise Management Group as soon as possible.
