Most franchises will sell you a franchise first. Then it is up to you to find a location. At Minuteman Press we research areas of interest for you and bring possible good locations to your attention. We decide together on a location before you make a decision to buy a franchise. 

The vast majority of Minuteman Press owners have had no prior background in the industry and most have never owned their own business before. We have developed a two week comprehensive training program. We cover all aspects of the business marketing, management and pricing using our proprietary software management system. In 1978 Minuteman Press led the way with the development of our innovative pricing software, which has evolved into our unique proprietary management software. This software includes a cost information database including order history; shop work flow control and tracking invoice database, as well as AR tracking and sales force management reports. All these features make the running of your centre smoother and more efficient. Once you leave our training school, our local representative will assist you and continue your training on site in your new location.
