Where to find franchise owners in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Franchise Owners

Franchise Owners want to efficiently manage multiple franchise locations. However, they can't get it because they struggle to coordinate operations and communication across different stores.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. FranchiseTrack.

Franchise Management Software : FranchiseTrack is a cloud-based software solution that allows franchise owners to track and manage all aspects of their franchise operations in real-time. Of course it is much better than the stuff from FranConnect, or Franpos!

How to find Franchise Owners

You can get insights about the pain points of franchise owners if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

  • Find out where franchise owners hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
  • Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
  • Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
  • If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of franchise owners, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
  • At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Franchise Management Software.

I described the process here in my blog post: Identify a hungry audience.

If you do this manually, it may take you hours each day. Automate it, with a little help from the AI in CustomerPing!

  • You describe what makes a post relevant to your business.
  • CustomerPing will “ping” you 24h a day, whenever franchise owners complain about their pet peeve: They struggle to coordinate operations and communication across different stores.
  • Good for you because this is something that you can solve with franchise Management Software, right?

What to do when you get a “customer ping”

When such an alert appears on your mobile phone, you simply tap on it and join the conversation in the online forum.
