Franchise mapping -
low-cost
franchise
territory design and postcode/zip code allocation
solution
Tech4T help franchisors design fair and balanced
territory boundaries.
Our franchise mapping (and remapping) service includes web-based
solutions to help franchisors sell their territories,
franchise territory maps and prospect data for
franchisees (optionally pre loaded into a CRM system),
plus postal territory wall maps.
To leverage the maximum return from your franchise
business, territories need to be designed to take
account of many factors including social demographics,
up-to-date business counts, market size, customer
potential, drive times, etc.
This not only requires the right data and mapping
technologies, but also the expertise and specialist
analysis tools to bring together varying data feeds,
applying them in such a way as to optimise geographic
segmentation whilst taking account of geographical
preferences and any previously allocated territories.
Tech4T's
experts
are trained to develop franchise territories in this way, ensuring franchise regions
are kept in line with business growth and
helping you use the map-based insights to interact
both on and offline with potential customers.

Remember, when
franchising
your business, or buying into a franchise... you need to
determine if territories are "protected", meaning that
one franchisee can’t market into another franchisee’s
territories.
If protected
territories are part of your business model and your territories
are not defined in a systematic, fair and consistent way,
legal implications and issues could follow.
We can help - giving you the benefit of 20+ years
in franchise territory design and franchise mapping!

Why balance franchise territories?
Balancing
territories - so that each franchisee has the same sales
opportunities - ensures franchise regions are more
appealing to prospective franchisees and
easier to sell. If territories are unbalanced, incorrectly
defined or overlap, there is likely to be conflict, confusion
and damage to your business and brand.
Franchise
territory assessment
For a limited period and
at 50% of our usual price, we will create a franmap of your
current franchise territories from postcode allocation you
provide. Then, using business or demographic data, we will
explore how well territories are currently balanced, determine
potential for additional revenue, and make recommendations
for unallocated territory adjustment.

Franchise boundary development
We can
design and balance territories to meet your current
and future needs. This includes
identifying and mapping
the ideal number of territories to maximise the
revenue potential of your franchise business, taking
into account factors like customer profile characteristics,
sales penetration, competitors, forecasts, local
area demographics and business statistics.
Any
existing territories can be preserved, and where
working well, analysed to identify factors that
can be applied to new territories.
Web-map franchise territories
We can
develop
mini-websites
that use maps and data reports
to define franchise
regions.
We use zoom functionality
to navigate the various territory
levels, with optional
drill-down from map hot-spots to postal data, statistics,
reports, location-specific information or to other
URLs.
Our
web-based systems can also be designed to match
your own website design/branding.
Click the above example to
see how our web-based solutions work. Each part
of the map drills through to a zoomed level and
finally down to the territory (or territory building
block) profile statistics.
