THE OPPORTUNITY

There are essentially two business opportunities available to potential investors: Master Franchising and Sub-Franchising.

Master Franchising
MeC STUDIO International continues to selectively develop new international markets based on their potential. While smaller markets may be considered under extraordinary circumstances, MeC STUDIO International prefers to allocate its resources to develop markets based on their relative size and potential for economic benefit.
In those markets selected for development, MeC STUDIO International transfers market exclusivity to candidates who possess a track record of success and a strong knowledge of the target market.
Typically, successful candidates invest to establish the local organization that has the right to build agencies and sub-franchise. In exchange for these rights, the Master Franchisee is responsible for the maintenance of our organization’s operating standards.

Sub-Franchising
In markets where MeC STUDIO is currently operating, the Master Franchisee retains the right to choose the most appropriate local development strategy. In some cases, these Master Franchisees offer the opportunity to Sub-Franchise, but it is important to note that they are under no obligation to do so. Regardless, when inquiries are received for these markets, MeC STUDIO International forwards the candidate’s contact information and initial correspondence to the offices of our Master Franchisee. Under these circumstances, our local representative is generally free to determine the conditions of potential commercial relationships and manages their own internal qualification process.

THE CONCEPT
Imagine coming up with the idea for a new franchise concept that explodes in your area with dozens of new units opening up. Imagine having control of this concept and receiving royalties and franchisee fees on a consistent basis. Imagine having a great idea and having people line up at your door to buy your opportunity. Imagine access to the best business experts to help guide you in your new venture to build your organization to last. This opportunity is extremely rare. However, these opportunities are available if you know where to look. This unusual, highly successful opportunity is called MASTER FRANCHISING. Master Franchising allows you to receive all of the benefits mentioned above without the expense of having to develop the concept from scratch.
You gain control of a successful franchise system in a specific geographic area, a proven track record, an established brand name, a corporate office partner, valuable support, the latest industry innovations and quality business expertise when you need it.
As a master or regional franchisee your income generation abilities are much greater than that of a normal franchise. With a normal franchise you are generally offering the product or service directly to the customer. With a master franchise you can generate income through our own agencies with a significantly reduced royalty and franchise fee.

A Very Prestigious Business
It is a known fact that the title of Master Franchisee holds great prestige and recognition. Your job will entail acting as a business consultant to your franchisees. With the knowledge and resources available to you from Master Franchise Specialists, assisting them in progressing and growing their businesses will be a cinch! You will have all of the benefits of starting a franchise, but your franchisee puts down all of the investment capital.


IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE
Master franchisees own and enjoy a quality of life business. Here are some key characteristics about the typical master franchise:
Minimal Customers - Your customers are your franchisees. Typically, you will be supporting a small number of franchisees who own several franchise units each.
Minimal amount of Employees - Many operate their master franchises alone at first. As you generate more income, you can hire an administrative assistant, training staff, support personnel, or a franchise sales representative. As your master franchise grows even larger you may need to add more management. Perhaps you could hire a general manager to run the operation so you can back away from the business almost completely. We have found that many master franchisees can semi-retire, live off of an extremely high income, and spend one or two days a month in the office after working in master franchising for three to seven years.
Small Office Space Requirements - Many master franchises can be started out of a home office. Once you have enough franchises in place you can expand to an outside office.
Rapid Equity Growth - You build equity in master franchising at a much faster rate than a normal business. Once you sell a few franchises or open your own franchises, you increase the value of your master franchise business significantly. Not only do you have an existing business with cash flow, you have additional franchise opportunities to sell which gives the master franchise a higher value. Typically a master franchise will make four to nine times the earnings rather than the typical 1.8 to 2.8 times the earnings of a normal business.
Low Overhead - You don't have to jump into the business with a large office, staff and other overhead expenses. You can expand as you go. You have the option of setting up your own franchises at reduced rates. As you open your own outlets you create additional asset value. As the value of your franchises increase, it boosts the value of your master franchise. If you need to, you can also sell off one of these discounted franchises at any time.
Exclusive Territories - You set the franchise standards in your area. Only you and your designated franchisees will be allowed to develop franchises in your area. Having control of your region is one of the greatest advantages of Master Franchising.
Be In the Know - Being part of a larger franchise system allows the best ideas to flow into the corporate office and then into the field. You'll have your own research and development department built right in.
No Industry Specific Knowledge Required - You will receive ongoing industry specific training and support from the corporate office throughout your experience with our system.
Work Part Time - This concept can be a part-time job for you at first. When everything takes off you can switch to full time.
Best of all it is a franchise! Franchises as a whole enjoy a 92% success rate. Master franchises typically have an even better success rate than the normal franchise. All you need to do is find the right master franchise for you. Master Franchising or regional development franchises as they are sometimes called, are the best kept secret in business today's for the right person.
