Step Nine

What We Look for in a Franchisee

This isn’t just about whether we’re the right fit for you, it’s also about whether you’re the right fit for us.

We see every franchise as a partnership. And like any great partnership, it works best when both sides share the same expectations.

We’re not here to sell you a dream. We’re here to help you build something real and that takes the right mindset.

The Traits That Make a Great Fit

Self-driven – You don’t need to be an expert in travel, but you do need to be proactive and committed
People-focused – This isn’t a transactional business; it’s about relationships, trust, and service
Professional and personable – You’ll represent your brand, and our network, with care and confidence
Resilient – You’ll lose bookings now and then. What matters is how you bounce back and learn from it
Curious and coachable – You’ll take guidance, ask questions, and follow the proven process

What This Is (and Isn’t)

We’ll give you the tools, training and support. But the drive has to come from you.

“At The Holiday Franchise Company, we don’t just look at franchisees as numbers, we make sure that we are the right fit for you as much as you are the right fit for us. We want this to be a lasting partnership that we both benefit from”

Joanne, Head of Franchise at The Holiday Franchise Company

What You’ll focus on matters

We tend to focus our marketing on higher-value, full-package holidays, things like long-haul adventures, honeymoons, luxury escapes, tailor-made trips, and cruises.

You can still book anything your customers want, including short breaks and Europe trips, but if your goal is to focus only on low-margin holidays like flight-onlys or basic beach deals, we’ll likely advise against it.

Don’t forget, having a niche market isn’t to limit your sales, but to focus your marketing.

If you’re not sure whether your goals align with ours, we’re happy to talk it through.

In Short

We look for people who want to build a business, not just earn a bit of side income.
‘People people’ who enjoy talking about travel and want to create something of their own, with an inner drive to keep pushing their business forward.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear more.
