PROOF OF SUCCESS

“Valenta offers the best balance of independence, support and scalability.”

- Michael Sivewright, UK. Franchisee from 2021, UK Managing Director from 2024

“I was so impressed with Valenta services as a long-term client, I became a franchisee and now I help other Accountants enjoy the same success.”

- Tim Charles, UK, Valenta Client since 2018 Franchisee since 2022

“I joined Valenta as an opportunity to start my own business in a structure where operations are run by the franchisor, leaving me free to focus on strategy, market development and scaling... It has gone really well for me in the first 12 months, where I have a base of 20 clients already providing recurring revenues.”

- John Waterworth, Franchisee in Sydney and Managing Director for Australia since 2021

WHAT ARE OUR FRANCHISEE REQUIREMENTS?

Successful franchisees will be able to relate their skills and experience to one of two personas:

• A strong background in B2B sales management. Covering lead generation, qualification, sales meetings and closing deals.
• Direct knowledge and a comprehensive understanding of a specific business type, function or problem that Valenta’s service offers can help. You would typically have acquired this from having previously held a senior management position in that business type/function or an employed position in a consultancy.

A DAY IN THE LIFE

A typical day in the life of a franchisee will include:

• Lead generation activity
• Sales management
• Meeting prospective clients
• Interaction with the delivery team leads to onboard clients
• Relationship management with existing clients.

The overwhelming majority of client and prospective client interactions are online rather than in person. However, some lead generation activities, such as trade shows and business networking, will be in person and in your local area. Many franchisees like to have a delivery role in projects they win, though this is optional and depends on how you set up the projects you pursue.

In the first few months, you will frequently interact with the Managing Director and others in the leadership team. Once your business is established, this will become less frequent, though there remain plenty of opportunities to engage with leadership and peers and draw on support in a highly collegiate atmosphere.
