Our mission is to help franchisors make decisions that are informed and rational, one calculation at a time, so today we’re going to dive into the four critical calculations for sales growth:

1. Franchise Unit Value
2. Lead to Deal
3. Tech Partnership
4. Lead Gen Reach & Cost

Franchise Unit Value

If you want to predict the expected new deal value over the average deal term including royalty collections and other metrics, run our Franchise Unit Value Calculator:

Lead to Deal

How many leads turn into deals? Well, it varies wildly based on several different factors. Under the hood are up-to-date research, brand details, and industry averages. It’s crucial to consider your current or speculative lead flow to see how many deals can come from your sales efforts, plus what your ROI could be before pulling the trigger.

If your franchise organization wants to forecast how many deals you can realistically expect to close from online leads, as well as project ROI, use our Lead to Deal Calculator:

Tech Partnership

Before signing any sales or marketing service agreement, you must anticipate the possible ROI. Get that buy-in from the executive team! Especially when looking at high-impact, high-investment franchise development website lead development engine.

Lead Gen Reach & Cost

Transparency in pricing instills confidence and trust, plus it's the right thing to do. But where do you want to target, and how much is the minimum investment for your brand? Understanding how your brand details and sales strategy affects your marketing reach is important. And once you gain a greater understanding of how CPL is determined, you can take agency over it, and grow!
