SOCIAL MEDIA & FRANCHISE SALES LOOKING TOWARDS THE BACK END BEFORE JUMPING IN WITH BOTH FEET By Paul Segreto

As many franchise professionals explore new methods of recruiting franchise candidates, there's been a great deal of discussion on how to incorporate social media into the mix. Sure, social media could be used to generate franchise leads. And, quite effectively. That, I have no doubt. But, it's what comes after generating the leads that concerns me more. So, let's take a look at what should occur towards the back end, before jumping in with both feet on the front end.

at a dull party, right? Putting off things for tomorrow that should be done today is just not acceptable. It becomes a reflection of how even the simplest things are handled. A lack of urgency and poor attention to detail will translate into how the franchise sales process is handled, and then withered away.

Diligent execution of strategy and plan is essential. Certainly, adjustments will need to be made along the way. But the plan is your road map. Just like integrating traditional marketing strate- Follow it as closely as possible. Allow extra time gies with social media strategies, it's necessary and resources as necessary for roadblocks and to integrate personal interaction as well. However, detours, but stay on course. Monitor your progress. instead of an aggressive, focused sales approach, How fast did you get from point A to point B? How the interaction should be subtle and guiding. Social fast did a candidate get from point A to Point B? Is media tools should be used to make points while the process slowing down or speeding up? Why? making the experience enjoyable and interest- Do you need to do some system maintenance to ing. Candidates will most likely marvel at the new the social media vehicle? Maybe your videos aren't technology and feel comfortable learning about the playing correctly? Maybe the photos aren't loading technology AND the franchise concept. And yes, fast enough? Maybe it's time to bring in a "technithey'll be more comfortable and be fully at ease cian" so you can get back on the road as quickly as working through disclosure and the finer points of possible? the concept itself. Professional handling of candidates means workThe rest comes down to guiding candidates ing with each candidate as you would want to be towards making a decision as it will now fully be treated if you were the one on the verge of making an informed decision that has been validated by a substantial investment, maybe putting your life the social media experience AND the franchisees savings on the line! It means conveying a sense the candidates have come in contact with. Hmmm, of urgency when asked for information. It means your franchisees actually feel more part of the fran- paying attention to detail in something as simple chise sales process than ever before. Go ahead as pronouncing their name correctly all the way to and smile as this makes the process easier than in something complex such as full disclosure of the the past. Yes, it'll be very nice to achieve franchise franchise concept. And, it means having the right development goals once again. attitude and conveying the same at every moment of working with the candidate at every point of "conFantasy or Reality? Achievable or Not?
