Business Franchise Australia and New Zealand 3

Not only does accreditation reduce the challenges of accessing

nance, it is also a powerful tool to assist in the growth of your

franchise network.

While Cashow It operates with the exibility of a small business, we

have the resources and backing of one of Australia’s largest non-bank

nance companies - Thorn Group Ltd, an ASX 200 company with over

80 years’ experience in the nance industry.

Cashow It has been a key partner for the growth

of the Rolld system. Where traditional lenders have

rigid requirements, the team at Cashow It have

understood the challenges of a growing franchise

system and have been prepared to partner for growth.

Ray Esquieres, Co-Founder & CFO, Rolld Australia

Searching for the right

franchise system to buy into

can often be a daunting task

and Business Franchise

Australia and New Zealand

magazine is here to help you.

As always, the magazine has page after page

of sound advice from our stable of expert

writers including lawyers, bankers, franchisors,

consultants and other franchising specialists.

What are the essential qualities for franchise

success? Ian Watt from Westpac says you need

passion and a love for the franchise business

you choose. Read an in-depth look into the

skills and qualities required on page 16. This

issue also includes advice from Stan Gordon,

the founder and CEO of Franchised Food

Company (FFCO). With brands including

Cold Rock Ice Creamery, Healthy Habits

and Nutshack, Stan offers his insights into

how to choose the right franchise for you and

important considerations you should make

before signing on the dotted line. Read more

on page 22.

Also inside this issue, we feature ‘Fixed Site

V’s Mobile franchises’. Fixed site franchises

can range from working from home, within

a retail store or office-based outlet, while

mobile means exactly that, out on the road.

This section of the magazine includes expert

advice from Jason Gehrke from Franchise

Advisory Centre. He discusses a different

reality from the usual perception regarding

mobile franchising; with franchisees often

working just as many hours as fixed-location,

see page 48.

If you are in the very early stages of

researching a franchise system to buy, a great

place to start is to meet face-to-face with the

franchisors themselves, some of whom are

showcased within the magazine. With two

Franchise Expo’s taking place, Brisbane in

July and Melbourne in August; there’s a great

opportunity to do this, as well as meeting a

wide range of experts from the franchising

industry to help you on your way. Full details

can be found on page 86, along with details

of how to register for free tickets, using BFM

as the code word. Make sure you stop by the

Business Franchise Australia and New Zealand

stand to pick up more invaluable advice and

information.

Enjoy the read.
