Business development involves connecting with your local schools to offer after school clubs, workshops or weekend clubs. These relationships are valuable, so even when schools are on board, you’ll maintain regular contact. This will allow you to gather continuous feedback so that you’re able to grow and improve your ActiveXplorers services. 

Initially, many franchisees choose to teach the classes themselves as this saves on overheads. However, as you expand the need arises to recruit teachers. You’ll spend time not only recruiting teachers, but mentoring and teaching them to deliver the ActiveXplorers curriculum, as well as checking-in with them regularly to ensure that they have the tools they need.  

Whilst ActiveXplorers will provide marketing support for the first year, there will be the need for you to create localised marketing content, such as social media posts or partnerships.
