Sixty percent of Smart franchises are currently owned by bankers.
“This wasn’t an area we targeted, but something obviously appealed,” says Adrienne Pierce, Smart Director, “so we’ve talked with them to find out what. ”
Smart has appealed to these bankers because:
- Operating in a business to business environment is something they’re familiar with
- Smart’s white collar Monday to Friday 9 to 5 office hours appeals to them
- They’re used to operating from professional offices, and appreciate the value a strong brand can bring to their business
- They can utilise their relationship and selling skills – they speak the right lingo and are used to talking with business owners
- They have excellent networks – both existing clients and other bankers – which they can leverage to build their own business
- They have business acumen – and they are comfortable and credible talking finances and business
- Having seen business owners struggle every day with their bookwork and paperwork, they have a great understanding of the trials and tribulations facing New Zealand business owners – and see the need for Smart services
If you know of anyone who has these skills and is looking for a new challenge, please let them know about Smart – and our contact details. A Smart franchise might be just what they’re looking for.
