Choose how much you want to earn
As an Appletree franchisee you are in control of your own business. The more time and effort you put into it, the more you will get out. Your clients will mainly be small independent retail outlets, who you work with to make sure they sell the maximum cards possible.
Building a strong and positive relationship with these clients is the key to your overall success.
Work around the lifestyle you choose to live
If you are fed up with the 9-5 routine, and are looking to become your own boss, an Appletree franchise could be just what you are looking for. The franchise can easily be run from home and requires minimal storage space for stock.
Many franchisees choose to make it a full time occupation, while others are looking for a smaller franchise area as they only wish to work part time. Whichever you choose, we’ll probably have a location that is just right for you.
Easy steps to get you started
New Franchisees receive a comprehensive business package which includes initial training on all the products, the skills required to run the business, building a client base, merchandising, controlling stock levels and managing your cash flow. This training is not classroom based, but is individually tailored to your particular location and circumstances.
And the real beauty of the Appletree franchise is that you can start trading almost immediately.
Create your own success story and live your dream
Our franchisees come from very diverse and varying backgrounds - from Shop Floor to Managing Directors.
Essentially new franchisees do not require any relevant past experience, but the key attributes are energy and determination. It’s up to you how big you want to grow your business, but the more time and effort you put in, the greater the rewards.
You can choose to start a new franchise area from scratch, or you may prefer to take over an established area from a retiring franchisee.
