HFC Website Testimonial Logos (3)
“After 28 years of working for a large organization, I decided I needed to break away and build my own empire. The travel industry had always appealed so I decided to invest some of my retirement windfall in a franchised business. I approached a large company selling franchises but was dismayed by the pushy sales techniques. “Sign up this week and we will give you this, that and the other”. It was so cheesy I did question the idea of whether buying a travel franchise was really for me. I then decided to give The Holiday Franchise Company a go. What a difference. From the 1st call, it felt that I was entering into a partnership that would offer the support I need as a new startup. I wasn’t wrong. Genuinely nice, professional people who know the industry inside out have given me immense support from day 1.”
By Ian Davies , Owner of Clear Escapes

“I have been nothing but impressed with The Holiday Franchise’s processes and support throughout. In the discussions before joining I had some family members who were sceptical about the offering and I voiced these concerns with Luke, who answered all of them honestly. It took 4 months from our initial call before joining at which I never felt rushed or pushed into it. Even after joining, I have not been hurried into launching. The Holiday Franchise Company understand people and want them to go at their own pace. I have loved the journey so far, the knowledge and support have been indispensable. It’s a nice feeling to not be on my own doing this, I feel I have a whole team of supporters at The Holiday Franchise Company cheering me on.”
By Philippa Ferguson, Owner of The Holiday Boutique

One of the best things about working at The Holiday Franchise Company is the continuous evolution. By constantly looking at how we can improve, it makes it a great place to voice new ideas (and, more importantly, be heard!) and to push yourself to learn new skills.

The support of the team is brilliant. They’re there for discussions on big projects to bounce ideas around or just to catch up for a 5-minute chat when you need to reset and refresh.I can honestly say I’ve never worked for a company so understanding and flexible.

It’s the first job I’ve had where I feel like I’ve got a real future where I can make a real difference in the company.

This was the best career move I have made. The company have made it so flexible for me to work full time and also be a mom and not miss out time with the family. I enjoy and love my job every day, each day is different and enables you to learn and develop on new skills and progress in your career. The team are very supportive and encouraging, with allowing to voice opinions and create new ideas, we really are one big family! It is more than a job; I walk away each evening with a smile and satisfied that I am achieving my goals and helping to grow the business!

I genuinely look forward to meeting each new Franchise that comes onboard and feels like my ideas and expertise is always really valued by the team. Jo, Luke and the head office team are a pleasure to work with and always willing to offer support and guidance. As the Graphic Designer, my role is to work closely with the franchises and bring the vision for their brand to life. I love the variety of work and feel like a proud parent when the projects are approved and i see the brands come to life on social media and beyond.
