The Summer Holidays are also a fantastic time to review how the last academic year performed, not only for Franchisees at a local level, but for Tumble Tots (UK) Ltd., at a national level. And, what a riveting year it has been!!
We’ve had the absolute pleasure of welcoming thousands of Tumble Tots, and grown-ups, to our community, helping our Franchisees, take their businesses to the next level and look eagerly towards 2023/2024.
From mind-blowing Franchisee recruitment records, to celebrating the Kings Coronation, to uplifting our Healthy Heroes and unleashing the potential of Franchisees, this academic year has been spectacular.
Record Breaking Recruitment
Research from the BFA has recently shown that across the franchise network, throughout the whole of the UK, on average, only 1% of leads convert into becoming a Franchisee. With pride, as a Franchisor, Tumble Tots (UK) Ltd., is sitting above the average across the UK. We are delighted to be in the position we are with Franchise Recruitment and are looking forward to remaining in our defiant position.
This year our Launch Calendar has been BURSTING with new Franchisees onboarding, as well as staggering interest building already for 2024 launches. From a national level we can see that those onboarding truly believe in our well-respected brand and programme, and have had the courage to launch a small business, in an otherwise tricky financial climate.
Striking interest in a Franchise, particularly in the Children’s Activity Sector, can be tricky, but experience shows us that Franchisees need to believe and have had experience of the brand that they are buying into. And that’s exactly what Sarah (Tumble Tots Harrogate) and Elisa (Tumble Tots Market Harborough) have in common.
Both were compelled to explore the opportunity of a Tumble Tots Franchise, owing to past experience of the brand. They already knew our unbeaten, unrivalled, dominance within the Children’s Activity Sector, and they knew they needed to become part of our legendary franchise.
In January 2023, Tumble Tots Harrogate and Tumble Tots Market Harborough opened their Tumble Tot doors, three months after signing their Franchisee Agreement. As part of the recruitment process, and owing to our experience, this is key and effective in going towards building a strong and respected brand and business.
Following months of expert guidance and advice, Sarah, Elisa and their teams were full of enthusiasm to finally launch classes, and, the reception they received was outstanding! The desire for parents to bring along their Tumble Tots was mind-blowing. As a consequence, confidence in operating the business, for both grew, as well as the moral achievement of bringing thrilling, early years classes to their local area.
Both businesses performed super well, and smashed their projected targets during their first terms of operating. This notable success cannot only be attributed to the tested programme they, and their teams are delivering, but it’s down to the hard work, as small business owners, they have committed to their businesses.
And to finish the success of our academic year, we are elated to have signed our third and fourth Franchisees, making this year truly spectacular. Tumble Tots Addlestone will be launching classes in the new academic year, backed up by expert guidance and support from Tumble Tots Head Office. And, we are confident that Jenny’s classes and business will be booming as we move throughout the year.
More than ever, it is crucial that as Franchisors, we are aware and take in consideration the extraordinary hurdles Franchisees face in launching their businesses, and throughout their time as a Franchisee. As a Franchisor, we want each and every Franchisee to be prosperous in their endeavours, and we are fully committed to providing as much support, guidance and insight as we possibly can, so that Franchisees, new or established, continue to dominate the Children’s Activity Sector.
Now more than ever before, there is high demand for Franchisees to launch classes across the country. You could take on the opportunity in 2024 with full, export support and guidance from the leader in the Children’s Activity Sector.
