than any other employment type, while also creating economic growth,” says Jake
supporting small business ownership RAMS Managing Director Jake Bromwich is passionate about small business, after all, he spent the first 10 years of his career in business banking. Now, after 4 years at the helm of arguably one of Australia’s most recognisable home loan brands, Jake has RAMS Home Loans on a growth journey and he wants to encourage prospective small business owners who are motivated and passionate about customer service to make contact. 26 business franchise MAGAZINE
Under its franchise model, RAMS is represented in every state and territory around Australia, and in the last 12 months the franchisor has welcomed 17 new franchise owners as part of their growth strategy, taking them to 62 franchise territories. In fact, Jake has set a goal to reach 80 approved franchise territories by the end of 2022, effectively doubling the footprint of the business from when the target was set; a target he’s confident of achieving. “Small business is the backbone of our economy, collectively hiring more people
“At RAMS we have an important role to play here, enabling driven, customer-oriented people to channel their energy into helping customers realise their home ownership dreams. Through ownership of their own business, each of our franchisees can then not only generate an income and lifestyle, they can also offer employment opportunities as they hire staff.” “We’ve been delighted to welcome our new franchisees to our RAMS family and I look forward to seeing their journey as we help them build their businesses. I always say, our franchisees’ success is our success, and it’s important to us, and ultimately our customers, that our valued network succeeds.” It would seem Jake’s mantra holds merit given a third of the RAMS franchise network has remained loyal to the brand for over ten years, with 10 of those being with RAMS for over 15 years, a point certainly not lost on the highly regarded franchise industry executive. “I’m really proud that we are not only able to attract amazing people to our business, but when we do, they want to stay for the long term,” says Jake.
