The term "franchising" covers a variety of arrangements in which the owner
of a product, process, service, system or even a name allows someone else to use
it in exchange for some sort of payment. It can take the form of:
Distributorship / Dealership
These are essentially only a license to distribute a product. A licensor grants
a license to a licensee.
Agencies
Here the agent 'one-sells' the products on behalf of the supplier for a commission.
Network / Multi-level marketing
Instead of the manufacturer setting up a sales organization, groups of self-employed
distributors build sales organizations of their own. Financial rewards are paid
based on total sales. However, the franchising that will be dealt with here is the
most popular use of the term and is known as: -
Business Format Franchising
This involves granting the rights for a given period of time by a company (franchiser)
to a third party (franchisee), to operate their proven business system using a common
brand and format for promoting, managing and administering the business.

The opportunity is open, take your part in contribution for the vision of the UCMAS
Abacus & Mental Arithmetic Academy.
1. Access to capital
This is somewhat overcome as commercial banks and development corporations recognize
the lower risk profile of franchising and consequently prefer financing a franchisee.
Financiers know they have a "safety net" in the franchiser who has tested
and fine-tuned the franchised system.
2. Experience of the franchiser
Our franchise package comes along with years of experience and proven methods. This
eliminates many of the start-up problems and enables someone with little or no experience
in a particular industry to become part thereof.
3. Training
The franchiser provides both initial and ongoing training to a new franchisee. This
helps to prepare the franchisee in all facets of the business. This method of skills
transfer takes place at all levels i.e. Management training, technique training,
preview, promotion, presentation, as well as employees' training at all levels.
This is a particular benefit for people who do not have the experience, knowledge
or the skills of Mental Arithmetic, which they wish to enter. Upon approval of an
application, signing of the franchise agreement and the successful purchase of your
franchise, the franchisee and/or employees will undergo an intensive training course.
During training, all aspects of the company's unique and specially developed computer
programs, all legal aspects of the business and the marketing of the business is
discussed in detail.
4. Standards
The franchiser provides the franchisee with ongoing assistance throughout their
term of business relationship. In addition, the franchiser is also in a position
to provide continuous research and development, contributing to new products and
services.
5. Business synergy
Purchasing a franchise means to become part of a " family " where all
members work together for the good of the whole. All franchisees contribute and
share ideas for the benefit of the franchise. Maintaining and upholding clearly
defined operating procedures and quality standards. Contribution to growth through
feedback, promotion, research and development.
6. Reasons For Success
- A proven concept
- A mentorship that lasts the life of the franchise agreement
- Lower risk and less chance of failure
- Not being a "master/servant" but a business relationship
