The 2011 Annual Franchise Development Report (AFDR) is a comprehensive research guide to sales and lead generation performance in franchise recruitment. The report drills down to industry categories, investment levels, and recruitment budgets; provides marketing costs information; reports the top-producing sales and lead sources; reveals performance evaluations of franchise websites and follow-up to prospect inquiries; and analyzes current and historical industry growth trends.
The data and analysis in this 150-page report can help you accelerate your system growth, increase selling performance, and make smarter, more cost-effective advertising and marketing decisions.
Data-gathering for the 2012 AFDR has just begun. To participate in next year's AFDR, contact Therese Thilgen at thereset@franchiseupdatemedia.com. All data is aggregated and kept confidential.
