Our congratulations go to Raakhee Morrison who learned this week that she has secured a 3 year deal worth £1120 + per week. The contract which starts in September with Holywell Primary school includes physical education sessions and fifteen extra-curricular clubs which include lunch supervision.

Well done to Raakhee and her team.

We have been reinforcing the importance of ‘Impact’ and measuring data for the last 18 months. At this crucial time of the year when contracts are being renewed, some franchisees have either lost contracts or had a limited ‘defence case’ as to why schools can’t afford not to have them! In contrast, those franchisees who have measured data and proved impact have secured additional work and longer term contracts! It’s really down to you to have these in place. Ask yourself again – am I OFSTED ready?

Whenever you need to reinforce or sell why we are the leader in the industry keep in mind our unique selling points. This is especially important when your service is similar to those around you. Unless you can communicate what makes your business unique in comparison to your competitors the less chances you have of increasing sales.
