Convenience: Ink and toner cartridges are a commodity. Retail and business customers want convenience when buying printer consumables and nothing is more convenient than an Inkspot kiosk located outside a supermarket at their local shopping centre.
Solid market: Ink and Toner sales have continued to grow annually globally and in Australia for well over a decade. Printer manufacturers keep producing cheaper and cheaper ink and laser printers and continue to keep the price for consumables high. Inkspot sells original ink and toner cartridges as well as offering consumers our own highly reliable brand of Inks and toners. Additionally we offer highly cost effective ink cartridge refilling services.
Green: Refilling and remanufactured Inkspot brand cartridges are both cost effective and better for the environment.
National: Inkspot is a national brand with franchises in VIC, NSW, QLD, SA, in metro shopping sentres and in country centres, as well as a broad network of country distributors.
Easiest franchise to operate: Inkspot franchises operate with just one staff member. No preparation, just turn on the electricity and start serving customers. No accounts to follow up, no need to get in 2 hours early to prepare, nothing to clean up at the end of the day.
Easy to operate: There are no pre-requisites nor skills required to run an Inkspot, other than having a capacity and desire to look after your Inkspot customers. That said the better your customer service focus the quicker you will grow.
Available franchises: Any major shopping centre where there isn’t currently an Inkspot has potential (some 430 potential sites across Australia). Just tell us the major centre nearest you and we will do the homework from there.
Any hurry?: No. We prefer to spend time with potential franchisees making sure they understand our business model and what may be their business. Additionally whilst we maintain some available franchise territories most franchisees want to be close to home so there is generally a bit of time finding a centre and a location within the centre that work. Making sure Inkspot is right for you is as easy as calling and starting the conversation. We will work out if Inkspot suits your franchise needs and then go from there to review locations that might suit. We are happy for you to spend a few hours or a few days in one of our franchises getting to understand what our business feels like. At the end of the day we are not in a hurry to get the wrong franchisees on board and you shouldn’t be in a hurry potentially signing up to the wrong franchise. Take your time and ours.
