MISCELLANEOUS No+Vello is offering you the opportunity to join an established, global franchise that has successfully launched over 1,000 centres in 15 countries
No+Vello provides its franchisees with the full and ongoing training they would expect from a global organisation, so if you also have a desire to run your own business the company will help you become successful from the moment you join its franchise network.
Why No+Vello?
——————-
Permanent hair reduction and other aesthetic treatments are a growing market, as there has been an increase in women and men who want the service. At present, more than 80 per cent of women and 50 per cent of men claim to have unwanted hair on several parts of their bodies. It is men, surprisingly, who are most in search of these services.
No+Vello is an established, global franchise business that has successfully launched over 1,000 centres in 15 countries. The company is set to be number one in the world for flat rate IPL (intense pulsed light) permanent hair reduction treatments and skin improvement. To complement its other markets, on a global basis No+Vello has also introduced +Esthetic, which are treatments that include teeth whitening, skin toning, facial hydration, skin firming (facial) and cellulite reduction.
Training and support
——————————
The No+Vello training starts with an induction course at the company’s head office in West Sussex. No+Vello normally only has two-three people on each course, which lasts one week. This is followed by further support when you launch. No+Vello covers all aspects of operating the business, including treatment application, product knowledge, stock ordering, bookkeeping, sales and marketing and business administration. No+Vello also trains your staff.
You will also have a dedicated support manager. No+Vello ensures that none of its franchisees are on their own - its proven business model has set hundreds of franchisees on the path to success.
The business is an owner operated venture with an additional staff member. You may want to consider employing someone from the beauty industry, although with No+Vello’s extensive launch training the need for any other beautician qualifications in the UK is unnecessary.
With No+Vello’s industry leading equipment and treatments and its revolutionary flat rate pricing strategy you will create loyal customers from the start of your business. You will also have peace of mind knowing you have the full support of head office to advise you on anything from running your business to health and medical advice.
Marketing support
—————————-
Like any franchise, you, the franchisee, are responsible for your own local marketing efforts. That said, No+Vello will provide you with the tools you need for your marketing campaigns - from leaflets and flyers, to point of sale materials. There will also be national marketing campaigns, which will increase local awareness.
60 centres in Italy and still growing
———————————————————
Beatriz Juarez, director of marketing for No+Vello in Italy, says: “The expected growth projections in Italy are very positive. We expect to exceed the business objectives set at the beginning of 2012 with about 100 operational centres in Italy. This growth demonstrates, once again, the success of the Spanish business model, which is replicated in other European countries and Latin America.”
Antonello Marrocco, CEO of No+Vello in Italy, says: “Italians attach great importance to physical appearance and, therefore, a franchise like No+Vello is a perfect fit for both men and women.”
Mar Ramos Fernandez, one of the company’s franchisees in Italy, chose No+Vello over 50 other franchise concepts she looked into because others seemed very risky. “I appreciated that there was a balance between doing what I liked and profitability,” she explains. “When I saw an advertisement for No+Vello I told my partner ‘This is the best franchise option’. My partner was surprised at the speed of choice, and I was right.”
When asked: what do you value most about your relationship with your franchisor?, Mar Ramos says: “If you have a problem, the solution is always fairly quick and they offer the franchisee a wide variety of services for their customers.”
The most valued brand
———————————
In October 2012 No+Vello was selected by Portugal’s Ecolho do Consumidor as the most valued brand in Portugal in the area of permanent hair reduction. The award is voted for by consumers for the best participants in a variety of markets. They vote on aspects such as satisfaction, services, products offered by the companies and the care and trust in the brand.
This award is among a number of other accolades the company has received in different countries. In Spain in 2009 it received the award for Best Franchise Services and in 2010 Spanish Franchise with the Best International Projection.
In Italy in 2011 No+Vello was awarded Best Franchise of the World and entered the American Entrepreneur Magazine Fran 500 listing at number 139. In the same year it received Entrepreneur Magazine’s New Franchise Award and in 2012 was ranked number one Top New Franchise for 2012.
