ColourFence has made the finals in the Franchise Marketing Awards for the third year in a row. The awards recognise the gold standard in marketing innovation, and highlight franchisors who provide outstanding marketing support for their franchisees.
Competition in this year’s Franchise Marketing Awards, described by the organisers as ‘fierce’, are judged by a panel of independent franchising and marketing experts. And while the finalists come from a wide variety of business sectors, they all have one thing in common – a ‘commitment to supporting their franchisees.’
ColourFence has reached the finals in three categories: ‘Best Print Advert’, ‘Best Online Marketing Campaign’ and, with 14 finalists certainly the most hotly contested award, ‘Best Franchisee Marketing Support.’ The winers will be announced at the National Franchise Exhibition at the NEC, Birmingham this Friday evening.
Says ColourFence Franchise Development Manager, Steve Tarbard: “Effective marketing is key to everything we do, which is why we have invested heavily in recruiting six marketing executives over the past two years, just to support our franchisees. Through building marketing plans, to analysing results and, importantly, reducing franchisees’ cost-per-sale, our marketing support has never been so efficient.”
There has never been a better time to join ColourFence, with stong demand for the company’s ‘fit-and-forget’, stormproof fencing system – and now additional products like ColourShed. In fact, this spring, a husband-and-wife franchisee team sold an incredible £112,000 of ColourFence products in just one month.
ColourFence is recruiting new franchisees nationwide and encourages interested parties to attend a Discovery Day at its factory in Newport, South Wales. As a management franchise opportunity, investors won’t be required to install the fences themselves nor is any previous industry experience required.
