Working in a corporate environment can be taxing on an employee, especially if you have entrepreneurial dreams of starting your own business and being your own boss. Byrider franchising makes the transition from corporate life to franchising as smooth as possible, with a comprehensive support infrastructure designed to give franchisees everything they need to open their business with confidence. This includes a set of guardrails to keep you on track, extensive training, and marketing assistance to make your brand visible in your community. Here’s what you can expect when you franchise with Byrider.
You’re Not in it Alone
The best part about franchising is that the franchisor has already done most of the heavy lifting. Even if you haven’t had extensive experience running an automobile franchise, that doesn’t exclude you from the Byrider franchising opportunity. We care more about your ability to manage a team and keep them focused, than we do about someone with an impressive resume. Actually, we actively seek qualified franchisees from a wide variety of backgrounds, as long as they are appropriately driven.
We give our franchisees enough freedom to forge their own path, while also providing them with guardrails to follow. You will be able to choose your own location — upon availability and approval — but we will offer guidance on areas where a used vehicle dealership would be viable. We will also assist you in determining the demographics of the location, accessibility, daily traffic counts, competition, rent and construction costs, and whether there is a sufficient residential and commercial presence to support your used car franchise.
Training
Byrider provides formal training to its franchisees at the Byrider Training Center in Carmel, Indiana. This includes training for sales, service, finance, controller, and management personnel. Regional training is also conducted at various sites throughout the year. For in-store training, we offer Byrider Digital University (BDU), an online opportunity that is always accessible and available, for personnel with limited time.
Our Franchise Support Team is also on-hand to assist you every step of the way. From finance and real estate to training and technology services, Byrider provides complete support for our franchisees so they can focus on the important things — providing customers with better used cars and affordable payments.
Marketing
Marketing often proves to be one of the most difficult aspects of opening a new business for any entrepreneur. With Byrider franchising, however, you’ll immediately become a member of the Byrider Advertising Group Inc. For a monthly fee of $1,500, we will provide you with a comprehensive marketing and advertising package, including research-based marketing strategies as well as targeted car loan franchise advertising materials. We pride ourselves on offering complete marketing and advertising support for all our franchisees, especially when it comes to our pre-produced materials such as TV, print, and Internet ads, as well as in-store branding and marketing materials. The monthly fee entitles members to unlimited consultation with the staff of Byrider Advertising Group Inc.
