The
Jim’s Antennas franchise is one of Australia’s leading franchise businesses in the service industry. The
home services franchise operates with the help of its master franchisors, local franchisors and franchisees. The
home maintenance business follows a stringent selection procedure to choose its local franchisors.
The home services franchise seeks franchisors with a sales background and a genuine willingness to help and encourage people. The main job of the franchisor of the home maintenance business is to provide advice and personal support to its franchisees. The franchisors essentially need to be mentors and business coaches helping franchisees overcome weaknesses and set forth new goals of improvement.
Jim’s Antennas has identified certain factors that support franchisees, like conducting meeting on subjects relevant to the franchisees including outside speakers to make it as interactive as possible. Other important elements of support are quick and effective response to questions from franchisees, pro-active calls and discussion of complaints from customers.* Franchisors of Jim’s Antennas are also responsible for marketing and advertising campaigns in their area, commonly in local newspapers and local Yellow Pages. The home services franchise encourages franchisors to experiment with novel ideas and seek the opinion of franchisees. Franchisees who earn less in the initial period are paid by franchisors to do promotional work under the ‘Work Availability Guarantee’’
