On Going Services for the Life of Your Business Business Training Our training program is customizable to fit your schedule. Our experienced and professional Trainers make learning easy. Once your store's location has been firmed up and your purchase agreement finalized, we immediately start your phone training and then move on to your detailed training. Training is done over the phone and through a series of online modules. This training can be completed over a period of time and on YOUR schedule. As you complete each training module, your trainer is always available to you for follow up questions to make sure all material is clearly understood. The phone portion of the training is focused on review all suppliers, your opening orders, and how to do the things necessary to establish your business, prior to your store set up. Your Training covers more than 25 key topics, including: Review of your store operations manual Opening and Closing the store Vendor orders and Adding new vendors Role-playing on sales driving techniques Seasonal purchasing and merchandising Physical walk-through to review store standards Handling sales transactions Balancing sales report activity Managing your personnel Tracking cash flow with our custom designed budgeting spreadsheets Your training will include practical assignments and testing so that your Trainer can verify your level of understanding and readiness. Once your training is completed, you will work with your Set up Supervisor upon his arrival on site to ensure that your equipment (balloon inflation, cash handling, etc) are all ready for your first day of business. A November 2012 study by Dun Bradstreet © found that "90% of small businesses that fail, do so because of lack of skills and knowledge on the part of the owner." Our training and support is designed to completely eliminate this lack-of-experience factor at no additional cost to you. We excel at ensuring the operational success of our store owners; You supply the guts and passion, we'll supply the experience!

At the end of the first 30 days of business we offer to perform a formal review of the new store.
