A proven business model makes the difference
For Express Employment Professionals Franchise Owners, the key difference starts with the business model. Designed to provide outstanding support throughout the entire ownership journey, Express franchisees get everything they need to build a strong business from Day 1. New owners receive three weeks of training before they even open their office, followed by ongoing training and coaching.
Additionally, the heavy lifting and burden of payroll funding is managed by corporate, allowing Franchise Owners to have more freedom in their day to work on the business, not just in the business. This means more time to scale, more time to give back to the community, and more time for the people and activities that are important.
More time to empower others and lead with purpose
Having more time in your day means you can be a hands-on business owner who makes a big impact by helping others. Express Employment Professionals Franchise Owners connect people in the community with meaningful work that fits their skill set and aligns with their goals. Since its founding in 1983, the vision of Express has been to help as many people as possible find good jobs by helping as many clients as possible find good people. The average Express office places 600 job seekers per year, and many Franchise Owners say this is the most rewarding part of what they do. “You get to see the impact you made on someone’s life just by giving them the opportunity they deserved,” says Franchise Owner Ridge Overholt.
Franchise Owner Garry Norris echoes this. “If you could see the look on the faces of some of the people we help — it just makes you feel so good about what you’re doing for them.”
More time to grow local businesses
Express gives its Franchise Owners the ability to lift up local businesses by partnering with companies to find the right people for their job openings and solve their hiring challenges. You’ll not only help strengthen the local economy, you’ll also build lasting relationships with these companies. Your office truly becomes a community partner, and your flexible schedule becomes a tool to create impact, supporting both job seekers and the companies that employ them.
More time for living and working with intention
As an Express Employment Professionals Franchise Owner, you’ll have the freedom in your schedule to serve your community on your terms. Offices are open traditional business hours, which means Franchise Owners can enjoy better work-life balance and have more time for the people and things that are most important to them. The Express opportunity truly allows you to align work with your personal goals and values. “The support is there, the resources are there. Once you put all that in action, you will continue to be successful.” says Franchisee Aracely Melendez
