Countrywide Signs will GUARANTEE your income for 3 months
March 20, 2026
Following on from a record year, and with territories available where work is already up and running, the Countrywide Signs franchise is keen to bring on new franchisees as soon as possible
To make sure nothing stands in the way of the right people saying ‘yes’, they've done something quite extraordinary:
They’re Guaranteeing Your Income
Yes, you read that correctly! Here's what's on offer:
Guaranteed income - At least minimum wage secured for your first three months, no caveats
Existing demand - Territories available where work is already there and waiting
A proven track record - 25+ years of franchise success, and a record-breaking year behind them
A real deadline - You must at least register your interest before the end of the tax year to qualify
That gives you just 3 weeks, but they’re not asking you to quit your job tomorrow and start straightaway. There’s still lots that needs to happen before you head out for your first booking, but you do need to at let us know you're serious about a particular territory.
Here are the territories where this offer will be open:
Mid and South Wales
Hereford and Worcestershire
Lincolnshire
Cumbria
Yorkshire
Northamptonshire
Berkshire
Buckinghamshire
Surrey
Sussex
Dorset
This is a pretty huge deal. We’ve only ever seen a franchisor offer guaranteed income to new franchisees a handful of times, and the reason they can is simple: they're that confident the right people in these territories will be earning well before the three months are even up.
This isn't a safety net they expect to use - this is Countrywide Signs putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to belief in their business model.
For anyone who's been sitting on the fence, asking themselves "but what if I don't earn enough?" - this is your answer.
Are you in?
