| How do I create revenue with a PD-go! Web Solutions™ franchise? There are several ways to create revenue, including: - Building new websites
- Providing website maintenance and consulting
- Registering domain names
- Residual income from the PD-go! monthly service fees
How much money can I expect to make from my business? Unfortunately, federal franchise law prohibits us from making any income projections or promises. This is to protect the franchisee as well as the franchisor. Income is commensurate with the amount of effort put into the business. I can say that our business has been our family's sole source of income since mid-1999. Do I need web design experience? No.
Web design experience would be helpful, but is not necessary.
Technically, you must feel confident with the computer and be the type
of person who can pick up new software quickly and easily. Excellent
interpersonal skills are very important. We can teach the right people
to successfully operate their franchise. We will only select people who
are truly teachable, positive, and hungry for knowledge and success.
How much are the franchise fees and royalties? The franchise fee is $25,000 with an 8% royalty on monthly income.
What is the estimated initial investment to own a PD-go! Web Solutions™ franchise? Total investment necessary to begin operation of a PD-go! Web Solutions franchised business is from $41,100 to $67,350 (this includes the $25,000 franchise fee).
How much training will I receive? Each franchisee or franchisee team will receive approximately two weeks of training in person at the PD-go! headquarters in Vero Beach Florida. They will be trained on how to run a successful business, and will do a reasonable amount of hands-on work on actual client website projects and support issues.
Do I get an Operations Manual? Yes, we have a comprehensive operations manual that will be provided to you prior to your training session. As the operations manual is adjusted you will receive an updated copy either physically or electronically.
Is on-going support provided once training is completed? Yes, it is. You will be in business for yourself, but not by yourself. We anticipate that there will be a learning curve, and that you will need more support at first, while you are still learning and becoming confident in the business. We will always be available to you for questions and mentorship.
Do I get an exclusive territory? Yes, your exclusive territory will be established at the time you purchase your business. The boundaries of your area will be designated by US zip codes. This is your area of primary responsibility and this is where you will focus your marketing dollars and networking efforts. We have found that in the web design business, clients more often prefer to work with a local person. You will, however, occasionally receive leads outside your territory. You are permitted to provide services to clients outside of your area, assuming that those clients are not within the territory of other franchisees. How many hours will I work each week? This is a full-time business, therefore, a 40 hour work week is expected. The business works ideally with a team of two, but can be run by yourself. We generally recommend working 9-5 Monday thru Friday, so that you can be available to your client base during their normal working hours. However, your hours & vacation days are pretty flexible. Really your business can be run from anywhere with a phone & a computer.
