Many are looking for the best franchises but don’t know where to start. Typical franchise expos only come to major cities and when they do come they often only come once a year. Many are simply sales platforms… however, consumers today desire to be educated to determine what are the best or top franchises.

“Free Franchise Expo” (www.freefranchiseexpo.com)has launched the World’s 1st Free VIRTUAL year round franchise expo and franchise education forum. In addition to providing many of the best franchise options in California, Free Franchise Expo provides free education seminars on franchising, funding and other important resources for prospective franchise owners.

Over the years, there has been a migration of consumers to better and more informative resources and educational resources to learn about living the American Dream of owning one’s own business. Consumers desire greater convenience, lower costs, better interactivity, videos, and independent educational information. Free Franchise Expo provides all of this from the convenience of one’s own home or anywhere they have access to the internet. Best of all it’s available anytime of the day or night… and all FREE.

Unlike typical franchise expos – there aren’t any crowds. You don’t have to wait in line waiting to obtain information. In a virtual franchise expo you have access to video presentation, ebrochures, powerpoints presentation, testimonial, white papers, articles, seminars, and much more. In many cases, you can download information into a “personal briefcase” to take home and share with one’s family, partners or others… again all free. In some cases, there are “Instant Booth Chat” features that allow you to immediately chat with franchise representatives or direct email contact capability to contact a representation.

The combination of these resources help candidates determine what the best franchises are in their state and area. Together prospective franchises can better determine the differentials between different franchise concepts. These franchise expos also often provide a variety of concepts across a wide choice of franchising industries. Be aware that not all franchises have availability in all areas and/or have restrictions on how close franchises can be to each other. Franchises also offer different agreement lengths, royalty rates, franchise license fees and other differentials.

Be sure to get educated on the pros and cons of franchising. There are a variety of books, magazines and other resources to help you choose the best franchise but also the “Right” franchise for you. While many franchises may provide profitable opportunities they may not offer the best standard of living for certain individuals.

Be sure to speak with franchisees for any franchise you ultimately have an interest in. Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) can also provide you a great deal of federally required information that can help you compare the differences between various franchise options. Best wishes on your search and investigation of locating the best franchise for you and your family.

Why a Virtual Franchise Expo?

larry — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 02:48:07 +0000

Over the last few decades, consumers have continued to search for greater convenience, lower costs, greater interactivity and better engagement. Technology has given consumers the means by which they have been able to achieve these goals.

Those interest in evaluating franchises have previously searched the business opportunity sections of newspapers, trade journals, magazine, the internet / web portals and have even used franchise brokers, franchise consultants and coaches to help them navigate the thousands of options that are available – often with frustration and limited results. In many cases, consumers have complained about strong sales efforts to view particular concepts or speak with sales personnel. Now the consumer has the ability to be in greater control and visit what is primarily an education forum rather than a sales platform.

Larry Carnell, President of Free Franchise Expo, Inc. says there is now an innovative new resource for those searching for franchise opportunities. Free Franchise Expo allows attendess to evaluate franchise opportunities while having access to educational resources from franchising experts from across the country. Many are calling Free Franchise Expo the Next Evolution in Lead Generation and a venue that is delivering what consumers desire.

Free Franchise Expo, Inc. is launching the World’s 1st year round Virtual franchise expo and education forum… ALL Free for consumers. Free Franchise Expo will provide access to many of the nation’s most respected and admired franchise opportunities across a variety of industries. Attendees will be able to visit the Franchise and Business Library and view articles, white papers and other marketing materials regarding franchises and franchising. In addition, the Franchise Auditorium will have prerecorded videos on a variety of franchising topics as well as seminars on funding, preparing for funding, and how to improve your credit scores.

Funding resources include SBA funding, Leasing, MicroLoans,unsecured, asset back lending / security back lending , 401k and ROBS Funding (Tax, Penalty, and Debt Free), and other resources. All of these are effective funding resources but 401k funding is proving to be the preferred choice for many that are evaluating all of the benefits.

Retirement asset funding using one’s 401k, IRA or other retirement assets have been made popular by BeneTrends, DRDA. FranFund, Guidant Financial, IRA Rollover, Tenet Financial and others. This program has also been nicknamed the ROBS program (Roll Over for Business Startups). This resource has significant short and long term advantages. Since this is an investment in one’s OWN business, there are no loan or interest payments which can often shorten one’s ability to reach profitability sooner and increase the potential of success.

In addition, there is also a Social Media Lounge to ask questions and receive answers from franchising experts. The virtual environment also provides each attendee a briefcase to download presentations, franchise information, and other materials.

To learn more, visit www.FreeFranchiseExpo.com and register to obtain Free access this this exciting resource.

The exhibit hall will feature a wide variety of franchise options with interactive booths that allow you to watch videos, review financial qualification, testimonials, ebrochures and other marketing materials. There will also be an “Instant Chat” feature that will expedite your ability to ask questions and obtain quick responses from that franchisor’s representatives.

Franchisors specifically like the opportunity to provide more resources to consumers and create better engagement through the use of videos, testimonials, and instant chat features. The expert educational resources help to address Fear and Funding issues that prospective franchisees often have.

History has shown that attendees to virtual events tend to be better educated, better skilled and possess greater financial resources while also possessing higher credit scores. Experts are reporting 60% – 300% year over year growth and the greater convenience, low cost, interactivity and educational resources have generated consumer preferences as high as 93% versus some other options. Of particular note is the post phone call engagement rates seen with virtual events. Web portals often see less than 30% with averages less than 17%. While live events such as trade shows or expos have post phone contact rates as high as 48%… Virtual events has seen rates as high as 66%!!! That’s significant considering the labor costs involved in trying to connect with prospective leads. In addition, Free Franchise Expo is an annual FIXED FEE program… no fee per lead or fee per deal. One deal per year is a fraction of the cost versus many other options… incredibly EVERY additional deal is FREE!!!! While this doesn’t replace other lead generation options, it can be an effective addition to a franchisor’s lead generation strategies.
