Ice Cream Franchise Alternative
Are you thinking about buying an ice cream franchise and finally living out your dreams? That's great! With Americans spending 4 billion on ice cream a year, you have certainly chosen your industry well. Although an ice cream franchise is not without risks, specialty concepts rise and fall like soufflés.
Basic business sense tells you to get the most for the least money, but doing this leaves you with the uneasy feeling of "is less more?" Are the risks of taking on a lower priced option reducing your opportunity for a profitable endeavor? At this point, many budding ice cream business owners opt for the highly-priced major franchises and begrudgingly pay franchise fees, ongoing fees and marketing fees. By doing this, they have their businesses controlled to an extent by the franchiser and hedge their bets.
Old Meeting House plans to revolutionize this industry! That's a bold statement, so please let us expand on it and educate you:
As a famous, long standing family and community based company, we are renowned for the sheer quality of our products and our business ethics. We have been wholesaling our ice cream to very respected businesses for over 58 years.
Over time, we have developed a strong business model and brand that not only works - but has stood the test of time and we are now offering it to other good people who want to realize their dreams of making a good living doing something they love.
We have developed a multi-platform model to ensure success where our partners pick and choose which aspects they wish to take on. We call them OMH Options. Remember: having an ice cream store is great, but you are relying on others coming to you, and that's why we have developed programs that also allow you to go out and provide our ice cream to restaurants, cafés, coffee shops and a whole host of other businesses in your area.
We do not charge franchise fees in any way shape or form! Of course you would still have your initial setup fees - like obtaining a lease, built out, creating storage and preparation areas, taxes and other costs involved with setting up and maintaining a new business. That's just part of doing business and you will find that is the same with all the franchises too.
Where we are different is we do not charge franchising fees, but a license fee. We introduce you to design professionals, we will help you design the store format using our experience and industry knowledge, and we will get you the best deals on fixtures, fittings, signage and every other aspects you will need to get started. We will train you and your staff in the methods used to operate your business, which will be specific to the options you choose. With a fully stocked store, branded to look like a franchise, you will make an impact in your local area.
As mentioned in other areas of our site, we don't have customers we have partners, and that is the key to both yours and our success! We simply make money the same way you do, from selling the best ice cream around and giving customers a unique experience that will make them come back for more on a regular basis. If you are successful we are too.
We have the brand, we have the options, we have the respect within our industry, we have the knowledge and we have the commitment to work with our partners to attain success. How many other opportunities do this without charging outlandish fees?
If you share our vision and respect our ethics and want to come on this trip with us, you'll always maintain full control of your business. Browse this site, fill in the application form and we will get you in contact with one of our business development consultants who will give you a more in-depth overview and help you move forward towards your dreams.
Here are our final bold statements: We are not greedy and most importantly we like to have fun while we work. OMH is part of a better life style, not just a career option!
