Licensing opportunities available from The Happiness Institute

Founded by esteemed clinical and coaching psychologist Professor Timothy Sharp in 2003, The Happiness Institute has helped to enhance happiness and assist people in living their best life via coaching, workshops, products, seminars and corporate events.

The Happiness Institute is offering coaching and psychology professionals the opportunity to become a part of their movement via licensing. They hope to create a large national network devoted to the promotion of well-being, resilience, optimism and positivity.

The Happiness Institute’s licences are similar to purchasing a coaching franchise or psychology franchise, but in essence, are an agreement between The Happiness Institute and the licensee. This licence gives them the right to use The Happiness Institute’s Intellectual property, receive training and marketing assistance, and be associated with their respected brand. Additionally, they are available to individuals, schools and small or large organisations.

Licensing was introduced in May 2009 and since then the Happiness Institute already has five licensees on board, comprised of two in Queensland, one in Victoria, one in Perth and one in the Australian Capital Territory. There is more domestic interest in the pipeline and the opportunity has even been attracting keen attention from overseas parties.

When compared to franchising, The Happiness Institute’s licences offer business owners higher levels of flexibility, enabling them to use products in the coaching field they work in, be it education, recruitment, corporate coaching or running workshops for other organisations.

If a coaching professional was looking for a business investment, a licence from The Happiness Institute offers a great starting point in terms of acquiring intellectual property, coaching programs and a ready-made marketing database. On the other hand, the licence is also suitable for those who already have an established program and client base, but are looking to expand on and inject new life into their suite of intellectual property.

It has taken The Happiness Institute more than six years to develop their scientifically proven programs and training manuals, marketing strategy, brand presence and growing database of over 12,000 members. By purchasing a licence, buyers will be able to access this valuable commodity effectively overnight and leverage it to their best advantage.
