Strong support at every step to help your Kumon franchise succeed

Strong support at every step to help your Kumon franchise succeedSmall business owners wear many hats to operate successfully. One day they might function as the accounts department working out ways to increase profits. The next day, they act as human resource in resolving a staffing issue, and the day after, they wear their marketing hat. If starting a small business on your own, these are all tasks for which you will likely be responsible, and for which you would seek your own training and guidance. In contrast, Kumon franchisees join a nationwide network of support that gives their businesses the best possible chance for long-term success. While Kumon franchisees, as businesses owners, are ultimately responsible for their centre, Kumon Australia and New Zealand offers specialised training and guidance in many areas – including local area marketing, human resources and compliance, and accounts and finance. “Since joining Kumon, my Franchise Development Consultant has been my main point of contact”, says Trapti Tulsian, who established Kumon Pakuranga Education Centre in Auckland in 2014. “The first year was all about induction. She visited my centre very regularly and provided suggestions for improving student outcomes, and in turn, my business. [As my FDC] really supports my learning, I feel confident, stronger and better able to deal with issues that may arise in the future”. “The other staff members [at KANZ] have also been really supportive”, Trapti continues. “The staff in our stock, reporting and Public Relations teams have always treated me as an individual and made me feel like they are working for me. I feel that the Kumon office has a very open-door approach. It's been a fantastic journey and I really value my relationship.” All Kumon franchisees are assigned assigned a consultant to help them improve and sustainably grow their business. There are also a range of networking opportunities for Kumon franchisees to meet and learn from each other. It’s common for our franchisees to seek each other’s advice on a wide range of matters. New Kumon franchisees have the choice of either purchasing an existing franchise or starting from the ground up at a new location. The former allows you to step right in and takeover a Kumon centre with an existing customer base, documented cash flows, and a trained workforce. For franchises opening in a new location, Kumon provides generous subsidies to support as you establish your business in a commercial premises. Furthermore, as the average length of stay for a Kumon franchisee in Australia is just under 14 years, and 10 years in New Zealand, we can say that many of our franchisees experience long-term success in leading fulfilling businesses that contribute to children’s learning. Owning and operating a Kumon franchise is the perfect opportunity for people who love working with children, their community, and who want to make a difference by developing the skill of self-learning in students.
