The Franchising Centre – Key Franchising Insights: Your Monthly News Round-up – January 2026
What’s on your agenda for 2026, and how’s it going so far?
For us, January is all about new beginnings, of course, but also building on the foundations of everything we’ve learnt over the last year, and 2025 had a lot of lessons for us all. Here’s what our experts have been up to since the start of the year, and what they think will be most important over the year ahead.
TFC Digital and Software House
If you’ve been bombarded with messages about how AI is going to change the world – and your business – over the last year and are either confused, annoyed, or a mixture of both, you’re not alone! Everyone is jumping on the AI bandwagon it seems, and it’s pretty hard to know what is worth looking into, and what’s just more hype.
Well, our digital and software team are convinced 2026 will be the year we sort the real deliverables from the hollow promises, and want to be right at the forefront of actual, measurable change this year. Which is why they are doubling down on their new collaboration with Piers Linney and Implement AI.
Our tech gurus, Alan and Alan, really know their stuff – they’re the same guys who’ve hand-picked all the other software available through TFC, including serious game-changers like Ziik. If they’re making a noise about any new AI tools being the real deal, it’s definitely worth paying attention – especially when they make it available exclusively through TFC!

Getting lots of new leads but conversion rates still too low?
It’s a pretty common scenario for a lot of franchisors right now. Most of our clients and partners have seen a rise in lead numbers in the second half of 2025, but they don’t always translate into more agreements being signed, so what gives?
Well, there are a lot of different reasons why this might happen, but one key area which seems to cause problems for a lot of franchisors is that they are focusing too heavily on their top-of-funnel marketing, but missing critical gaps in their lead nurturing processes. With prospects now taking significantly longer to make decisions, recruitment success in 2026 isn’t going to be about having the most leads, but rather having the smartest systems in place to guide prospects through a clear, structured journey using automation, intelligent lead scoring, and timely follow-ups.

Franchising Your Business
What if your 2026 growth strategy could offer reduced risk, lower capital requirements, faster scaling, and partners who are genuinely invested in success? That’s exactly what franchising is all about.
Don’t worry, this latest blog isn’t about trying to sell you on the idea of franchising, because you’re already here, so we assume you’re already interested. Instead, we want to focus on the big questions: is it actually right for your business?
Exploring the possibilities
Franchising your business is a big step, and any kind of new growth strategy needs careful consideration. Perhaps you’re not even sure if franchising is actually right for your business.
That’s completely normal, and it’s exactly where we come in.
At The Franchising Centre, we help businesses like yours explore what franchising could mean for you, and create a clear roadmap for success. We’re here to help you answer the important questions:
What franchising actually is, if it’s right for you, and how it might work for your business
- How you can get started, or take your current franchise offering to the next level
- How you can optimise the amount of money you invest
- How to develop a blueprint or roadmap that will get real results
- And most importantly: how much help do you actually need, if any?
Here’s the easiest way to find out, and learn how to take the next step: just click the button at the bottom to get in touch.
Franchise Operations & Support
We recommend every franchisor rolls up their sleeves and puts in some serious work on the nuts and bolts of their franchise, especially when they’re first launching, or are planning a new growth strategy. However, when you’ve been right in the thick of things – preparing new systems, improving processes, or focusing on manuals and legal docs, for example – you can end up losing sight of the bigger picture for a time.
It’s very common, and a natural trade-off of putting in the hard graft, but how do you get back on track and revive your long-term goals and vision for the business?
If this is something you’re experiencing, Jo Morris's story will definitely resonate. The Mini Lingos founder had done everything right and ticked all the boxes, but lost sight of where she wanted to take her franchise. This short video testimonial reveals how bringing in an outside expert helped her break free from reactive mode, regain clarity on her long-term vision, and build a practical roadmap to actually get there.
“I had been so busy with the day-to-day of my franchise that I was missing the bigger picture.”
Sound familiar?
It’s a pretty common problem for franchises at a certain point in their development. There are so many moving parts involved in turning your business into a successful franchise that you can easily get bogged down in the details, and overlook the importance of a long-term vision and strategy.
This particular quote is from Jo Morris, Founder of the Mini Lingos franchise, who specialise in delivering fun and educational Spanish classes to young children. She was kind enough to put together a video about why she decided to look for outside help in the form of our Franchise Operations and Support Service, and it makes for really interesting viewing.

Franchise Copywriting & Content
Being bold with your content is essential in a highly competitive world, and provocative, disruptive marketing angles will certainly get you a lot of attention. However, content that creates only clicks, and not conversions, is just so much wasted money.
Potential franchisees are risking hundreds of thousands of pounds and years of their lives - they don't need your creative fireworks, they need answers. When your content strategy prioritises novelty over substance, you attract time-wasters, answer the same basic questions repeatedly, and watch quality prospects walk away to brands that made them feel confident.
All while your competition is signing the franchisees you should be recruiting. Great content is about being smart, not flashy. It filters out tyre-kickers, builds unshakeable credibility, and paradoxically gives you the freedom to experiment boldly because your foundations are rock-solid.
