Shuttercraft is looking to recruit franchisees who share its goals and visions for growth
In 2016 Shuttercraft made a considerable financial investment into rebranding the business, implementing ‘next generation’ IT systems and investing in key staff to take the company to the next level.
Shuttercraft made this investment due to the extraordinary growth of the UK shutter market and felt that by investing now it would future proof the business. As a company, Shuttercraft has grown 30 per cent each year, which is extraordinary since the UK shutter industry is still in its infancy.
It believes in providing only the best quality products, high standards of service and friendly after sales.
Shuttercraft is one of the UK’s leading window shutters franchise companies, offering highly profitable franchise opportunities in selected parts of the UK. It celebrated its 10-year anniversary in 2012, which is when Shuttercraft launched the franchising side of the business, and it hasn’t looked back since.
As a Shuttercraft franchisee, you’ll be ‘leading the charge’ in your territory, but won’t be fitting shutters. Your role is to effectively manage the business on a day-to-day basis, managing one to two fitters, while you will be focused on developing relationships in your local area.
You will need to show you have the ability to maximise the opportunities in your designated territory by developing strong, long lasting relationships.
The company is looking to develop relationships with franchisees who share Shuttercraft’s goals and visions for growth and its belief that strong relationships are the difference between a good business and a great one.
You will benefit by having the ongoing support of an industry leading brand and a highly effective head office support team, which includes:
Because Shuttercraft offers a premium product with a promise of a premium service, it’s looking to partner with people who have the same passion to deliver on that promise.
Getting any business off to a good start is critical to its success. This is especially so for franchisees, who are likely to be starting their own businesses for the first time.
A franchisee may have invested their life savings into buying the franchise and have household bills they need paying. Fortunately for Shuttercraft franchisees, the company has put a lot of thought into its business model, which has been designed with franchisees’ needs in mind, in order to offer them fast-track entry into a growth market, as well as low operating costs by being home and van-based (for the fitters).
The low capital investment cost makes the franchise package affordable to purchase and operate.
The proven business model and excellent supply chain means Shuttercraft is able to offer franchisees the opportunity to run a cash positive business, with high profit margins, from the outset with outstanding, ongoing earning potential.
The company will support and train you on every level, including sales promotion and business development activity, quoting for new work, surveying and getting your fitters to install the Shuttercraft product range and building relationships with clients to encourage repeat business.
