Home-Based Marketing Franchise

A profitable opportunity running your own Raring2go! printed magazine and website business 

Raring2go! provides you with a flexible, home-based magazine and website marketing franchise.  The established and proven business model provides a decent, regular monthly income and much improved work-life balance.

You will earn a great income from selling advertising in both your magazine and across your website. Speaking with people and selling yourself and your business is 99% of what Raring2go! is about.

 The Raring2go! Marketing Franchise

The Raring2go! Marketing Franchise Model will require you to work around 20 hours a week, earning a good income and building a successful business. With Raring2go! you can prioritise what’s most important to you: your family commitments and childcare responsibilities.

You will benefit from no long daily commutes, expensive travel costs or car parking. You'll enjoy 13 weeks of holidays ‘off’ each year with your children, so you will have no child care costs or concerns. You will also be part of a genuinely supportive network of hyper engaged franchisees who work really well alongside one another locally, regionally, and nationally.

No Publishing Experience Required!

Magazines are printed four times a year and each edition is a minimum of 32 pages and 10,000 copies. Magazines are distributed in a unique way direct to end users. As your business grows, you will want to print more pages and more copies, and whilst this will increase your costs a little, it will also mean you are earning a far higher income from advertising sales.

Your website also generates cost-free income for you and Raring2go! have a full suite of digital marketing advertising opportunities that prove very popular with local advertisers.

Your income will be entirely from selling advertising packages to local businesses for across both the printed magazine and website. Raring2go! is a multi channel proposition and as such appeals greatly to advertisers big and small.

What makes Raring2go! a good choice?

The powerful premise of Raring2go! is to link local family-friendly businesses and events with families in the area. Their well-known colourful and informative printed magazines have become a trusted go-to guide for parents and children throughout the UK.

For many years now, Raring2go! has broadened its reach and range of services to include website and digital promotional opportunities, email marketing and social media shout-outs for local businesses. Today Raring2go! is an established and ever developing multi channel operation.

Training and Support:

You will receive training and support from the franchisee network on how to approach and guide customers to the best options. Most of Raring2go! franchisees are parents of primary school-age children who desperately want flexibility to balance family responsibilities whilst working.

Raring2go! offers comprehensive training to all new franchisees in all aspects of the business. Whilst previous sales experience is not a requirement, it is an advantage. They are looking for people with a natural inclination for building relationships, a willingness to confidently initiate conversations with people they’ve never met via email, over the phone and in person.

The training includes an introduction to sales training in their induction training because building strong relationships with local businesses is a crucial part of your business. Raring2go! will show you how to engage with people and sell advertising space by phone, email, face-to-face and via good old-fashioned traditional letters. This training, coupled with your natural ability will help ensure the success of your Raring2go! Franchise.
