Franchise recruitment — your questions answered.
Franchise recruitment is the managed process of attracting, qualifying, and introducing franchisee candidates to your opportunity. Lifestyle Franchise advertises on major UK portals, qualifies all enquiries against your candidate profile, and formally introduces suitable candidates. A £250/month retainer covers management, with a 25% success fee on completed placements.
We advertise on most major UK franchise portals, reaching people who are actively searching for a franchise to buy. Your opportunity is also listed on Franchise Planet as part of the service. We advise on the most effective portals for your specific business type and franchise fee level.
A success fee is a percentage of the franchisee's initial franchise fee, paid when a candidate signs a franchise agreement and pays their fee. Lifestyle Franchise charges 25% on completed placements, in addition to the monthly retainer. This aligns our incentives with yours — we are motivated to find you the right candidates.
Yes — before attracting franchisees you need a properly documented franchise model including a prospectus, operations manual, franchise agreement, and financial structure. Without these you cannot present a credible opportunity to candidates. If you have not yet franchised your business, our development packages start from £2,999.
Timescales vary depending on your industry, territory, and franchise fee level. Franchises with lower entry costs in high-demand sectors typically generate enquiries within the first month. We manage expectations honestly at the outset and provide monthly pipeline reports so you always know where things stand.
