What makes Happy Joe’s one of the fastest-growing pizza franchises? Is it our delicious menu of award-winning pizzas? Yup! Is it our family-friendly atmosphere? Yes again! Is it our commitment to the communities we serve? It sure is! But there’s more to it than that. We’ve used our decades in the industry to refine a business model that takes the guesswork out of things — just one perk of the franchise model that allows our restaurant owners to maximize their potential for success.
The fact is, there are two ways you can go about opening a small business: You can become an independent owner and take on all the work and responsibilities yourself, or you can become part of a franchise brand. There are distinct advantages to both methods, but the latter offers unique benefits you wouldn't otherwise enjoy. In this blog, we'll go over a few of them.
What if you opened your new restaurant with a proven business model in place that could help you anticipate and meet the demands of ownership? Well, at the heart of the franchise model is a framework that does just that, taking much of the trial and error out of running your franchise. All franchise brands have developed business models that are meant to help franchisees navigate their industries more efficiently and successfully. But it’s important to remember that not all models are created equal; the exceptional ones, like the Happy Joe’s model, factor in just about everything you’ll need to know to run the day-to-day operations of your restaurant. It acts as a roadmap to steer you in the right direction, keeping you on a course toward success and has answers for just about everything to help you feel ready to meet the challenges of our pizza franchise opportunities. This kind of resource is simply not available when you begin a small business from scratch.
One of the most important benefits of partnering with a franchise brand like Happy Joe’s is our thorough training and ongoing support. You can count on it to prepare you for the demands of our industry as you grow your restaurant and serve a menu that’s guaranteed to please.
Our franchise experts ensure your training and support is thorough, beginning from the moment you sign your franchise agreement. Our training will include everything you need to know about:
You’ll also have access to our proprietary Operations Manual that goes over all our established processes and procedures in detail, so you can always feel prepared under just about any circumstance. In short, you’ll be in business for yourself, never by yourself — an advantage that doesn’t come when opening a small business from scratch.
The fact is, franchisor support and training is unique to the franchise business model and plays a critical role in the success rate of franchises versus independently-owned businesses; in one study conducted by FranNet, it was found that 92% of franchises were still in business after two years, and 85% were still open after five. This is significant, when one compares those statistics to independently-owned businesses, where, according to an Investopedia report, 25% fail within their first year.
The popularity of the franchise business model has meant that many brands utilizing it have enjoyed longevity. A long brand history means the brand has established itself, and Happy Joe's is just such a brand.
Our menu has been putting smiles on faces for over 50 years, and we’ve worked hard to establish ourselves as one of the fastest-growing pizza franchises that’s a favorite of all ages. We’re always working on getting our name out there with national marketing campaigns that will benefit you directly. Additionally, because our name is a recognized one, your local marketing dollar will go further — it’ll be quicker and easier to reach your best customers. That means you’ll need less time to establish yourself in your market and will have more time to pay attention to what matters — customer service and growth!
Another important perk of the franchise business model is access to important industry relationships that will allow you to run your franchise more efficiently and economically. Very often, established brands, in particular, have developed relationships with suppliers and vendors for important things like equipment, ingredients, supplies, uniforms, and other necessary items that franchisees need to run their businesses successfully.
Keeping your Happy Joe’s restaurant stocked with the ingredients you’ll need to prepare your menu is vital to your success, but finding the right suppliers can be tricky. Luckily, you can count on our corporate support center and the vendor relationships we’ve developed to help you stay supplied and ready to serve our award-winning pizzas, salads, pastas, desserts, and more. We’ve forged strong partnerships with suppliers who will help you consistently bring our delicious pizzas and other popular menu items to your guests — and keep them coming back for more!
