Here’s what some of our franchisees have to say!
Being a Franchisee/teacher for The Signing Company is an opportunity to do something amazing. Teaching signing and watching families gain the ability to communicate with their little ones in this special way makes this more of a joy than a job.
Managing your own classes, timetable and locations give you a huge amount of flexibility to work in a way that works for you, while all the tools, support and resources are supplied to make teaching easy, fun and consistent. Everything from accounting to class plans, sign sheets and advertising is all supplied to support your journey.
Becky and the head office team support you all the way through so you can get out and inspire families to sign while all the other teachers support and share ideas together. Every day you learn something new and reach someone new through teaching signing.
Nikki, Franchisee
Having attended the classes, I and my family love signing. I have always wanted to work with children and when I saw the advert to own a Franchise, I thought it was a very good business opportunity. Plus, the chance to do something I feel passionate about is a bonus.
I have loved every minute of the journey of becoming a Franchisee and the support from Becky has been great. She's always on hand to answer any questions and at no point was anything rushed. Starting up a business is hard but having the support and encouragement I received makes it all seem easier. Owning my own business and being part of a team that offers help and support when I need it is invaluable.
I don’t have my BSL level 1, can I still become a franchisee? OR I am already working towards my BSL Level 1 award, is this okay?
Yes, we can recommend courses for you to get started on your BSL qualification whilst you are training with us. If you are already on a course, that’s great! Let us know the details, we can continue exploring your franchise opportunity.
Do I need to use Social Media pages?
Yes! We strongly recommend that you are happy to use social media and have a good understanding of how to use Facebook and Instagram.
What training will I receive and what ongoing training can I expect?
Once you have committed then you will receive 2 days of training along with on-going support.
Ongoing training opportunities will be provided as part of your CDP.
How quickly will I be up and running my classes?
We would say approx. 3 months depending on the time of the year and also depending on how quickly you want to make this happen! Bearing in mind, you would need to factor in: training, receiving props, advertising your new business, and setting a start date as your goal! It can be done sooner!
How much would I need to invest in total?
In addition to the initial pack, you would need to consider a budget for advertising, booking system, venue hire, music equipment, stationery, and Public Liability Insurance. More details are provided in the Franchise Information Pack.
Do I need a car?
Yes, to transport equipment, props and mats to a setting or venue.
Do I need space to store stock and equipment?
Yes, you will receive a volume of stock that will need a dry, clean and accessible place to store.
