The Next Step

At first buying a franchise may seem like a complicated project. There are many factors to be considered which is why we have prepared this outline.It is designed to help you understand the procedures followed in purchasing, establishing and beginning operation of your own Envoy Business Services Franchise.

After you have received the Franchise Information Package, fill out and return the enclosed FRANCHISE APPLICATION form. Completing our franchise application does not commit you in any way. It merely indicates that you would like more information on the Envoy franchise opportunity.

As soon as we have received your completed application, we will review it promptly and, if mutual interest is indicated, arrange a meeting with one of our Franchise Representatives.

At this preliminary meeting you will have an opportunity to ask specific questions about Envoy as a business opportunity. You may decide to take away the FRANCHISE AGREEMENT for careful study in your own time. A deposit is required at this time to indicate your commitment and to allow Envoy to process necessary paperwork.

We strongly advise you to visit several Envoy retail stores and to consult independent professional advice before completing the FRANCHISE AGREEMENT. Once your questions are answered you may then purchase your own Envoy franchise by signing the FRANCHISE AGREEMENT and paying the INITIAL FRANCHISE FEE.

At this point events get really exciting. As soon as possible after you sign the ENVOY FRANCHISE AGREEMENT, we will begin to work with you to determine a suitable location for the operation of your Envoy franchise. The selected location is for mutual approval.

Approximately 20 days prior to the anticipated opening of your Envoy store, you will attend our initial training program. This program takes place at our headquarters and includes classroom training as well as onthe job field training. We will also work with you personally to advise you on questions of staffing, inventory and equipment purchasing, advertising and marketing and in many other areas relevant to your Envoy store. To ensure your confidence in profitability launching your business, we schedule three full weeks for this initial training program to cover all aspects of the operation completely.

With our continued assistance, you will now be ready to begin. You will find that you can start operations in a relatively short period oftime - approximately 30 to 60 days from the date you sign the franchise agreement.

In no way does our assistance and support to you end here. Our commitment to your success has just begun. At any time during the term of your franchise agreement the answers to your questions will be just a phone call away.Our professional staff will give you first priority to help make sure that your start-up goes smoothly. In addition, over the course of the term of your franchise, we will be conducting seminars and refresher programs to keep you and all Envoy franchises in the forefront of our full range of services. Visits to your franchise by our experienced representatives will also aid in the growth of your business. Your continued success and that of all Envoy franchisees is our only goal.
