Making the Most of the Opportunity to Give Back
Looking for a business ownership opportunity that gives you the potential to earn the money you want and make a true difference in your community while doing it? An Express Employment Professionals staffing agency franchise could be just what you’ve been searching for. Keep reading to learn how every Express office gives the Franchise Owner an opportunity to serve the community and help people — every day.
Making an impact from the start
Express was founded in 1983 by William Stoller and Robert Funk, who were determined to do business differently. They wanted the company to be grounded in a people-first culture and to make a lasting community impact. The thinking was that when good people find good jobs, everyone succeeds. Over 40 years later, the desire to make a difference is still shaping the way this franchise staffing agency does business and is reflected in the Express vision statement: To help as many people as possible find good jobs by helping as many clients as possible find good people.
A business model designed to make a difference
Express Franchise Owners benefit from being part of a proven system that drives financial performance, growth and franchisee satisfaction. The company has been ranked #1 in the staffing franchise category by Entrepreneur magazine for 14 years in a row. Franchisees enjoy exceptional sales results, with first-year offices averaging just over $1M in annual sales. Territories open over two years have $5.3M in average annual sales.*
But the Express business model goes beyond simply earning money. In keeping with the company’s vision statement, Express offices make a dual impact on their community. They drive local economic growth by helping area businesses find employees, while helping people in the community find good jobs that match their skill set and goals at the same time. The average office places 600 job seekers every year. The result is a business that not only gives franchisees the opportunity to earn the money they want, but it also gives them the opportunity to give back.
Being your own boss with purpose
The desire to own your own schedule is a big factor in why people choose business ownership. Express staffing agency franchise offices are open traditional business hours, which makes it easier for Franchise Owners to find time for the people and things that are most important. The additional perk of giving back to the community is something that Express franchisees regularly mention when asked about their ownership experience. “It gave me the work life balance that I sought and the benefits of business ownership,” says Franchise Owner Tracy Thompson. “But it’s also really helpful to me to be able to help people — help them find their next job opportunity and hopefully change their life.”
Award-winning Franchise Owner support
The Express franchise staffing agency opportunity is known for providing outstanding support to its Franchise Owners. Help is available from Day 1 and includes assistance with everyday tasks like invoices and client paperwork to payroll funding and help desk assistance. Franchisees have access to ongoing training opportunities as well as a network of support from other Franchise Owners and a new owner sales coaching program. “If you’re thinking about buying an Express franchise, know that you’re going to get all the support that you need,” says Franchise Owner Zach Daffin.
