FAQ

WHAT DOES A FRANCHISE CONSULTANT DO?
A franchise consultant helps businesses grow through franchising. At Familia, we specialise in scaling franchise networks and recruiting franchisees – managing lead generation, marketing campaigns and the full sales journey. We also support businesses new to franchising through initial development and launch. We use our own experience as franchise owners who grew from 1 to 50+ sites to ensure advice is practical and relevant, not just theoretical.
HOW MUCH DOES A FRANCHISE CONSULTANT COST IN THE UK?
Costs vary depending on the scope of work. In the UK, franchise consultancy fees can range from a few thousand pounds for initial strategy planning to tens of thousands for a fully managed recruitment campaign. At Familia, our pricing is transparent, with packages tailored to your stage of growth. Whether you need short-term project support or long-term recruitment management, you only pay for the services you actually need.
WHY HIRE A FRANCHISE CONSULTANT INSTEAD OF GOING IT ALONE?
It saves time, avoids costly mistakes, and accelerates growth. Franchise recruitment is competitive in the UK, and trying to scale alone can lead to inefficient marketing spend and slow growth. At Familia, we bring proven recruitment strategies, modern lead generation techniques, and real-world franchise ownership experience. We help you fill your pipeline faster, attract quality franchisees, and keep your network growing consistently.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECRUIT FRANCHISEES?
With the right recruitment strategy, most franchisors see quality leads within weeks of launching their campaign. However, the full recruitment cycle from first enquiry to signed agreement typically takes 2-4 months per franchisee. At Familia, we manage the entire journey – from generating leads to nurturing prospects and closing agreements – so you can focus on supporting your network while we keep your pipeline full.
