THE KEYS TO RUNNING A SUCCESSFUL DRIZZL’D FRANCHISE
Getting Drizzl’d to the stage where we are proud to offer our hard-earned product to potential franchisees has been a long journey. It has involved plenty of trial and error, refining our processes, policies, and recipes, engaging in lengthy meetings with potential suppliers, and, crucially, gathering extensive feedback from our customers!
A frequent question throughout this journey has been, "What are the keys to running a successful Drizzl’d franchise?" The answer to this question is crucial as it forms the basis of our evaluation of potential franchisees.
Here at Drizzl’d, we focus on building long-term relationships rather than making ‘quick bucks’ from you, which is why understanding these keys is essential for anyone looking to join our team.
So, what does it take to be a successful franchisee at Drizzl’d? Here are the essential qualities we look for:
Accountability: This is crucial. We value franchisees who take responsibility for their actions and decisions. Accountability means addressing issues promptly and working together to find solutions. It also instills a sense of pride and achievement in your work.
Problem-Solving and Rational Thinking: We aren’t looking for 'yes people'. We want franchisees who can think on their feet and handle problems independently. However, if there’s a problem you need help with, we are here. At Drizzl’d, we aim to further develop your problem-solving skills so that we can grow together.
Resourcefulness: Running any business is challenging. Being resourceful means you can quickly find and apply solutions when problems arise, ensuring the smooth operation of your business.
Hard Work: Running a business requires dedication and effort. We need franchisees who are committed to what we are trying to achieve at Drizzl’d. We’re here for the long run, and if you get the opportunity to discuss the brand with me one day, you’ll soon find out what our plans are ahead
Effective Communication: Communication is key in any team. We encourage our franchisees to share their successes and concerns openly. At Drizzl’d, we’ve implemented strategies to facilitate open communication so we can address any issues together promptly but also congratulate on your acheivements as they arise.
Leadership Abilities: Effective leadership is vital for managing your team, inspiring your employees, and fostering a positive work environment within your store. We believe that the decision to become a franchisee demonstrates leadership potential already even if you’ve never had the opportunity to be a leader previously. We’ve designed strategies to ensure that your leadership skills are tapped into, fine tuned and allowed to grow!
These are the six qualities we look for when assessing potential Drizzl’d franchisees. We are committed to a long-term vision, aiming to cultivate a culture, brand, and relationships that we can all be proud of.
