To help franchisees, some of whom have no prior entrepreneurial experience, Clean First Time Inc. is creating a mentoring program. This program matches new and prospective franchisees with experienced operators who can teach them all of the "ins and outs" of running the business. The best example of our mentoring is through what we call the developer program - these mentors are currently either franchisees or have been Express franchisees in the past, so they very much have the hands-on experience and history to mentor others.

Do all franchisees have a mentor?

Not necessarily. Some franchisees have done it informally, as we have a very strong network of fellow franchisees that help each other a great deal.

What is the success rate of those who have and have not had mentors?

We have not yet compared success rate, however our franchisees who do work with the developers are extremely pleased with the experience.

What are some benefits of these mentoring programs to new franchisees?

Often, experience is the best teacher. It helps tremendously to be able to work with someone whose problems and successes you can relate to. People in the program are relating to someone who's been there, done that and, has insight into different ways of building the business for that new franchisee. The mentor can tell the franchisee what works and what doesn't. He or she is also a great person to bounce ideas off of and help them try a new or different way of doing something.

How does the mentoring program benefit the mentor?

Since the mentor is a solidified part of the Clean First Time system, they're happy to see someone coming in with an improved chance of success.

What are some issues franchisees discuss with their mentor?

Their business plan, the actual running of their business, even specifics such as how to set up their franchise and the cost of the equipment. A mentor's suggestions can make a big difference to a franchisee's start-up costs and their bottom line.

When prospective franchisees are deciding between franchise opportunities, do mentoring programs come into play?

We don't advertise the mentor program, so it's not something that necessarily draws prospective franchisees. It is, however, mentioned during the discovery process, and when people hear about it, they do consider it an added value.

Should prospective franchisees ask whether a mentoring program is offered?

Anything a prospective franchisee can take advantage of to help them to ramp up faster in the business is a plus. Having the opportunity to work with someone who has had proven success in the Clean First Time franchise system.
