Our £15,000 Investment into your Businesses!
|
As highlighted at this week’s 100 Club event at the Olympic Park, we want all our Franchisees to be running million pound businesses, which we know you can all do. To support you to achieve this, we’re investing £15,000 back into your businesses to generate leads and gain new customers at a time when schools are looking to invest for next year.
You should have all now been invited to take part in the superb opportunity to get your share of the £15,000 of funding we’re investing in you. Working with our strategic partners and lead generators TIME Associates, we’re funding over 350 sales appointments on your behalf.
|
Glenn Hoy of TIME Associates explains how he, Danny Melling and the central Marketing team have developed this new support programme:
“This investment from PEG is to help you grow your business at a time when there has never been more interest from schools wanting to meet with you and is ‘evidence’ based, so with your commitment, outstanding results are ready and waiting for you.”
This sales and marketing campaign is being driven using the Premier Sport, ‘Road to Rio’ programme and is perfect timing for meetings this term. Any tendency for hesitation (towards September) should be avoided for lots of reasons, primarily because the level of interest in our product offerings across the board has been phenomenal.
Schools want to meet you now...

Introducing the NEW ‘Going for Gold’ Incentive Scheme
|
At the last ever 100 Club event this week we was delighted to launch our brand new incentive scheme – Going for Gold! Danny Melling explained the rationale behind the decision which has been driven by franchisees ‘Raising the bar’.
There were 90 people in attendance at the event and all were challenged with the following outcomes:
- Quality – remember why we do what we do
- Have a positive, growth mindset
- Take massive action
|
The massive action goal is to build a £1Million Premier Education Group business within the next 3 years. The Going for Gold incentives will be tailored to support franchisees to continue growth and build well structured teams, customer base and profits.

Nurture Strong Relationships Through Excellent Communication
|
This week we’re looking at Core Value #7 “Nurture strong relationships through excellent communication”.
Communication is key to maintaining your relationships, both in your personal and work life – society simply couldn’t function without communication. Communication is a natural form of interacting with another person – dolphins “click” at each other, birds sing, and humans speak. However, great communication takes far more than just speaking to someone...
|
Listening...
Listening is one of the most important traits of excellent communication. The person you are communicating with will notice if you are not listening to them, even if you appear to be. Take in the information they are giving you, and respond, taking their opinion on board. Don’t force your ideas on others – there’s a big difference between being opinionated and rude.
Get to the point...

New Apprenticeships Exceed All Expectations
|
When we launched our new partnership with Creative Sport & Leisure (CSL) as national apprenticeship provider back in August 2015, we could never imagine the impact it would have on the network.
Based on previous years, the ambitious target of 50 apprentices was set and surpassed in the first two months. Entering the final term of the year we are just shy of 100 apprentices in learning, across the network.
|
In the coming months, we will be following some of their career journeys as they report on their progress with Premier.

By utilising an education consultancy approach, licensees are maximising the opportunities within each school. In fact, one licensee has generated a whopping £17k of PPA business in just one school.
By using this document in existing schools, we have added at least two events for this school year, including holiday courses and enrichment weeks.
