As Express Employment Professionals, an international staffing franchise, works towards its 900 unit mark milestone, it is looking for driven, passionate franchise owners to support. And there’s never been a better time to take the leap. The brand is completely waiving its franchise fee of $40,000 in certain markets and offering cashback initiatives in others.
The full service staffing franchise works with job seekers and businesses to find the perfect match, whether that’s a full-time, part-time or temporary position. By franchising with Express, new owners not only have the opportunity to tap into the booming staffing industry, but to benefit from the brand’s AUV of over $6 million*, in-depth support and over 40 years of experience.
“Because we have been around for 40 years and have 865 locations, we have scattered territories available all throughout North America,” said Dan Gunderson, Senior Franchising Director. “For the past 10 years or so we've always had different incentive programs that are very attractive for new franchise owners which are pretty unheard of in the franchising industry.”
Why Express is Incentivizing Franchisees
For 25 specific new territories across North America, Express is waiving the franchise fee of $40,000 entirely when a new franchisee moves forward and signs their franchise agreement. These territories include:
“We feel that Express should really be in the these areas,” said Gunderson. “We've identified these open territories as a real opportunity for us so we’ve created these very appealing incentive programs to help us reach our goal of 900 offices.”
Outside of those territories, Express also has what it calls a cashback incentive for any other new territory. The franchise owner has an opportunity to receive back $25,000 of their $40,000 franchise fee as a cash back incentive if they reach a benchmark level of success within six months, something the brand refers to as Fast Track.
In appreciation of their service, Express also offers 50% off its franchise fee for veterans on a regular basis, regardless of the territory.
The Ideal Express Employment Franchisee
Express is looking to partner with franchisees in markets around the world as it works towards its goal of putting a million people to work each year. And since no prior experience is needed, entrepreneurs from all backgrounds have the opportunity to tap into this booming industry in strong territories around the country.
Notably, about 95% of Express owners have no previous staffing experience. To be successful, franchise owners should be ready to lead a team, willing to make sales calls and have a strong passion for helping others find success. Express franchise owners are always ready to serve people, whether that be a small business owner who doesn’t know how to move forward with finding employees or someone who just got laid off.
Additionally, owners should also have strong leadership skills, clear communication, motivation, extroverted personalities and be comfortable making cold calls and building relationships.
“We look for people who want to make a difference in their community,” said Gunderson. “We want to help people find jobs and help companies find people. We're looking for owners who are going to be involved and not be distracted by other businesses—we're looking for a fully involved owner, not a semi absentee.”
Why Franchisees Love the Brand
Express franchise owners tend to stick around for a long time, with an average length of franchise ownership of 17 years—with some even being owners for up to 30 years. And it's for good reason.
For one, franchise owners benefit from the brand's low overhead and investment level. Because Express owners do not need to purchase a significant amount of supplies or equipment to start up their office, they can save on investment costs. Even more impressively, the brand’s average AUV rings in at over $6 million. For territories open more than 24 months, average sales in 2021 were $6,119,487, while first-year offices averaged $900,049, according to Item 19 in the brand’s FDD.*
Franchise owners are also given all the tools they need to be successful, such as Help Desk support from the Oklahoma City HQ, monthly regional meetings with other owners to help discover best practices, leadership conferences available for staff to attend to further their development, annual conferences, monthly in-person meetings, strategic development and problem-solving and more.
One of the most unique ways the company sets franchise owners up for success is by handling payroll funding. Express processes invoices and other important paperwork for clients, allowing franchisees to do what they do best.
As Express works towards its goal of having 900 locations and hitting $5.5 billion in sales by 2025, it will continue to use incentive programs to attract people who want to make a difference in their communities.
The initial investment ranges from $100,000 to $220,000 to open an Express single traditional model, with a franchise fee of $40,000. For more information on franchising with Express Employment, visit: https://expressfranchising.com/.
