Live on Zoom

Franchise Webinars

Thirty minutes of practical franchise advice from people who have built and franchised a business themselves.

Each session is led by Julie Clabby, co-founder of Familia, who grew her own business into a national franchise network before helping other founders do the same. Every webinar ends with questions, and everyone who registers gets the recording.

Who they are for

  • Business owners weighing up franchising as a way to grow
  • Founders with a proven model who are ready to scale it
  • Service businesses wondering whether their model can be copied
  • Franchisors who want more of the right franchisees or a network that runs better

We work across eight service sectors, from care and children’s activities to food, beauty and professional services. The fundamentals apply to most businesses with a model worth copying. See our sectors.

What we cover

Webinar topics

Franchise development

Whether your business is ready to franchise, how to shape the model and the right structure for growth.

Financial planning

Making the numbers work for franchisor and franchisee, setting fees and building a model that lasts.

Operations and systems

Documenting how you work, writing the operations manual and building systems others can follow.

Franchisee recruitment

Finding the right people, marketing the opportunity and choosing franchisees who will succeed.

Territory planning

Drawing territories that are clear, fair to both sides and able to hold as the network grows.

Running a network

Supporting franchisees, keeping standards consistent and growing the network at a pace it can take.

Teaching first, not selling.

These sessions are there to help you understand franchising and make a good decision about it. We mention how Familia can help at the end, and that is all. If franchising isn’t right for your business, we would rather you heard that from us now.
