FDS Franchisee Recruitment Programmes
As both a consultancy and print & online publications group, FDS is able to follow through with the implementation of a franchise and facilitate the recruitment of franchisees.
Your FDS franchise consultant will recommend a franchisee recruitment campaign utilising print, online and mailshot resources tailored to your goals and budget to ensure you enjoy maximum cost-efficiency in the recruitment of your franchisee network. Many of our franchisor clients rely completely on our Franchisee Recruitment Programmes to build their networks, recognising that no other source can provide as many serious, qualified leads on prospective franchisees.

The Franchise Magazine
The UK's best selling franchise magazine, The Franchise Magazine was first published in 1985 and is now distributed in print, via WHSmith and other leading newsagents, and online at www.thefranchisemagazine.net every six weeks (eight times a year) with each edition coinciding with a major franchise exhibition in the UK.
The Franchise Magazine is designed specifically to help you educate, motivate and recruit franchisees, alongside well-researched supporting editorial, legislation updates, advisory features and valuable information on a variety of topics relating to the franchise industry.
The most cost-effective option for franchisee recruitment, The Franchise Magazine's 12 month star package promotional programmes provide you with a high profile and growing lead source. You may run with your corporate style advertisements, or commission our experienced editorial and design staff to produce a strong article and advertisement mix at no extra cost, to ensure you maximise the impact of your advertising spend and generate serious national interest in your franchise opportunity from prospective franchise investors.
The UK Franchise Directory
Designed to produce quality leads from serious candidates on a regular weekly basis, The UK Franchise Directory online was established as a printed directory for 21 years. Initiatives through search engine marketing, online advertising and valuable links attract a great deal of quality prospects and our online search tools and quality content quickly help match franchise buyers with the franchise opportunities that they are seeking.
Unlike other online recruitment tools which produce a mass of unqualified leads which take time and resources to filter, The UK Franchise Directory online is designed to turn visitors into specific leads for specific franchisors. We filter out duplicate leads and spam applicants so you only receive leads matching your criteria. Our website-based tools allow you to specifically determine the profile of your franchisee together with investment levels, available territories and more. Whatsmore, your leads are never shared or sold - should a visitor require information on another brand they must specifically request that information.
No matter what the size of your advertising budget, we have a programme and a rate schedule that is worthy of your serious consideration. Our rates start form as little as £250 a month, and we also offer additional marketing opportunities that can boost your exposure such as featured areas and banners on our ezine newsletters. The UK Franchise Directory online is the professional answer to online franchisee recruitment campaigns.
