How do I own a tumble & tea cafe franchise?

As the director of franchising, I am frequently asked, “How do I own a tumble & tea café franchise?”
I have decided to dedicate this week’s blog entry to explain our process step by step.

Simply stated, franchisers (us) award franchises (tumble and tea cafes) to franchisees (you). We determine which franchisees best represent the characteristics we are looking for to be part of our unique and proven system. The qualities a tumble and tea café franchisee MUST possess are listed below:

• Outgoing and friendly with well developed people and management skills
• Problem solving and multi tasking abilities
• Ability to achieve goals in stressful environments
• Strong sales and customer service skills
• High personal standards of excellence, honesty and integrity
• Ability to follow instructions

So….how do you get started?

Step 1: Contact us! You can send me an e-mail aaron@tumbleandteacafe.com or you are welcome to call me @ 866-99-tumble. If you are sending an e-mail please include your name, phone number, primary residence, location you are interested in opening your tumble & tea café & your mailing address.

Step 2: Once I receive your information we will send you a package with more information about us and the financial requirements.

Step 3: Once you have reviewed the information, our next step is to plan your visit for your initial meeting and presentation at out corporate headquarters in Berkeley, California. Come see our headquarters, meet our staff and learn more than you ever wanted to know about tumble & tea café!

Step 4: At your meeting you will receive a copy of our Franchise Disclosure Document. In regulation with the FCC you will NOT be able to acquire a franchise on this initial visit. We will review specific details of our operation & you’ll get a chance to ask questions and meet our staff. You will also have a private meeting with our designer to discuss design ideas for your café. This visit is intended to give you all the information possible so you can make an informed decision. You are under no obligation to move forward once you attend your initial visit.

Step 5: We will plan your next visit 2 weeks after our initial meeting. This gives us time to do a background check on you and for you to continue your research about opening your café.

Step 6: If you meet our qualifications and we decide to award you a franchise, you will come see us again and have an in-depth operations review at which point you will be awarded a franchise. CONGRATULATIONS!
