The Franchise Process
We take great care to affiliate with the ideal franchise partners: people who share our vision, and the determination to operate a successful traditional matchmaking agency. Our selection process involves the following steps:
Application Form
Once you have contacted us with your interest in INTRO and we have talked with you we will ask you to complete our franchise application form detailing your previous business experience, areas of interest, specific location & available funding. If our requirements match, we will invite you to Dublin to meet us.
Meet & Greet – INTRO Tour
We will meet you at our Agency Office, introduce our team and explain our franchise model in detail. We will follow this up with an area evaluation and approval of your proposed location and market.
Business Plan Submission
Once your location is provisionally approved, we will require you to submit your business plan for review to ensure that you are financially prepared and organised to open an INTRO franchise.
Committment
Once we have shaken hands on our proposed franchising partnership, the Heads of Agreement is sent, inviting you to pay a franchise deposit, confirming the commitment of both parties.
Office & Financing Secured
At this point you must ensure that funds are secured, the Agency Office is approved, and the commercial lease signed.
Signing the Franchise Agreement
Once the office lease is signed, both parties sign the franchise agreement, making you an official INTRO Franchisee. The balance of the initial franchise fee is paid when the agreement is signed.
Induction Training & INTRO Orientation
We will provide a full training programme for you and your employees at our Dublin HQ, supported by online tutorials.
New Agency Opening (NAO)
Our Franchise Community Manager will assist your new INTRO project from the initial orientation to recruiting your first client. We will assist you during the opening process and provide ongoing support to develop your INTRO Matchmaking Agency.
