Internal comms infrastructure improvements sets franchise apart

The UK’s leading signs and graphics franchise, Signs Express, has announced the launch of a new, state-of-the-art intranet now available to its franchisees.

The new intranet has been designed to maximise communications between the Franchise Support Centre (FSC) and the network, as well as foster relationships between the franchised businesses, even if they are opposite sides of the country. In addition to the sharing of information on an informal basis the new site has a huge collection of resources that a business owner or members of staff will find integral in running the business.

Rebecca Dack, Marketing Manager at Signs Express, stated, “The sharing of information and experience is very important in every business, but especially in franchised networks between business owners who are in the same position. We have completely reinvented our intranet to facilitate the additional support we offer to the network from the FSC as well as the sharing of information.”

The new platform has been launched in tandem with a new internal video station, SignStation, which provides a channel for the Franchise Support Centre to provide helpful updates and guides to the franchised network through informative video content. One of the newest introductions of training aids is the delivery of video content surrounding the Franchise Support Centre’s Business Development Programme, SignPost, which helps franchisees to attain their growth goals.

Signs Express has over 65 franchised businesses across the UK & Ireland, but the company has aspirations to expand its network and have many franchise opportunities available. This new intranet is an indication of the dedication the franchisor has to the business owners and their staff who make up the network.
