About

You're a brand/franchise manager: what have you put in place to develop your network? What are your franchisee recruitment conversion rates? How can I increase the number of franchisees I sign? Progressium works on these issues: - the conversion rate from lead to franchisee is 0.5 to 3.5%. - a lead dies within 24 hours - you're three times more likely to sign if you adopt the right posture and operating mode - you're twice as likely to sign if you help your franchisee find premises Why work together? We have set up a MAP method: (Mastery/Acceleration/Performance) in 3 key points: development diagnosis, modeling and expansion acceleration. Your signing results : - between 20 and 50% more appointments - between 10 and 40% more signatures - 50% lower cost than an integrated developer After spending more than 10 years in network development and management, I decided to put my experience at the service of others by creating the first agency covering all franchise-related professions.
