Get your franchisees from one store to ten ✅ I love Glynn Chambers' point on "trust the process" when it comes to support franchisees' success. I noticed that Tattle partners who have it figured out typically share 3 things in common: 1️⃣ They help franchisees identify top opportunities for improvement. 👉 These brands empower Regional Managers and Franchisee Consultants with the tool belt (in this case, Tattle) to help each location identify their monthly objectives (e.g. Dave's Hot Chicken uses this process to both improve existing stores' operations and preemptively implement learnings for new store openings). 2️⃣ They implement minimal, tactical changes at the brand level that leads to higher franchisee profits. 👉 By optimizing their menu mix and LTO variations that naturally have higher satisfaction and accuracy ratings, these brands raise the profitability at the store level without having to retrain the location-level staff. (e.g. Starbird optimizing their chicken sandwich relaunch based on guest feedback data analytics.) 3️⃣ They establish clear brand standards for communicating with customers. 👉 The most successful brands have very clear email templates and response protocols for guest experience of every star rating and every scenario, and leverage automation to boost incident reply rate and satisfaction with replies (.e.g Brands who do this the best can consistently recover 1 in 3 dissatisfied customers.)

📣 I 🧡 customer feedback and this is a good one helping validate the work we do each day at 7shifts: Team Management for Restaurants. On a recent call with a 50+ location chain of restaurants, Kelly Fitzpatrick spoke with the Corporations Project Lead for new systems and an existing multi-unit franchise operator who’s actively using 7shifts. 👀 👇 I’ve shared a 2 min transcript, from the call, below with real-time feedback from the corporation and the franchise operator. 1️⃣ Corporate Project Lead: ➡️ "I just would like to share my feedback so far. We recently signed up for this at our corporate stores and I just wanted to say that so far, we are very impressed with the platform it’s easy to use and very user-friendly. For those franchisees that haven’t been exposed to 7shifts yet, I would highly recommend your product since it’s made our life a lot easier at corporate, rather than using old excel sheets. Given the fact that we live in a digital era for the new generation, it's just much easier for them to be using 7shifts since they're already on their phone, might as well see their entire business operations from anywhere in real-time”. 2️⃣ Kelly (from 7shifts): ➡️"Awesome. I'm really happy to hear that it's been working out well for the corporate stores so far.” 3️⃣ Existing Multi-Unit Franchise Operator using 7shifts: ➡️ "Yeah, I'd like to echo corporates endorsement. We've been using it for a little over a year in one of my locations and it's been a phenomenal platform and I would highly recommend it. In fact, just to do a comparison of 7shifts we tested one of your competitors and tried it and didn’t like it so we immediately switched that store over to 7shifts as well. That’s how good it was. So, yeah you have a resounding endorsement from me as well.” I've said it before and I'll say it again 🗣️ -- We are in a never-ending pursuit to solve problems for restaurants and it's the confidence and day-to-day actions we take with prospective customers that lead to a long-term healthy relationship. Keep up the great work Kelly Fitzpatrick and the rest of the amazing Midmarket team. 🧡 #happycustomers #partnership #restauranttech #7shifts #solvingproblems

The Recipe for Success in the Restaurant Business 🍽️ After five years in the franchising consulting business, I've had the privilege of meeting many restaurant business owners. Through these interactions, I’ve identified three distinct types of restaurants:  1. Successful Restaurants 2. Growing Restaurants 3. Struggling Restaurants Struggling Restaurants: Let's start with the struggling restaurants. These establishments often face significant challenges in various areas, including marketing, supply chain management, staffing, location selection, and operational terms. These hurdles can make it difficult for them to thrive in a competitive market. Growing Restaurants: Then we have the growing restaurants. These are the places that show promise and have certain aspects of their operations well-handled. However, they often have some weaknesses or gaps that need addressing to achieve sustained growth. Successful Restaurants: Lastly, we have the successful restaurants. These are the ones that have made a name for themselves and consistently perform well. However, when it comes to franchising, many of these successful establishments encounter difficulties in replicating their success across new locations. In my five years of experience, I've learned that franchising a successful restaurant involves paying attention to several critical factors. Here are the essential points to consider: 1. Marketing: Effective marketing strategies are crucial for attracting and retaining customers. A strong marketing plan can make a significant difference in the visibility and appeal of your franchise. 2. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Establish clear and comprehensive SOPs to maintain quality and efficiency. 3. Staff Hiring and Training: Invest in hiring the right talent and provide extensive training to ensure excellent service. 4. Location: Choose locations strategically to maximize foot traffic and accessibility. 5. Legal Documents: Ensure all legal documents are in order to avoid future disputes and complications. 6. Rewards and Recognition: Implement a system to reward and recognize high-performing franchisees and employees. 7. Supply Chain: Create a reliable and efficient supply chain to ensure consistent quality and availability of products. 8. Finance Management: Maintain meticulous financial records and management to sustain profitability. The journey of turning a successful restaurant into a thriving franchise is challenging but rewarding. With the right strategies and focus on these critical areas, you can replicate your success and grow your brand.📈 If you're ready to take your restaurant to the next level and explore franchising opportunities, let's connect.
