Regus provides private office spaces in thousands of locations all over the world. The business is part of the International Workplace Group and started in 1989. Regus began franchising in 2012.
Regus recognized that many companies are reluctant to sign expensive leases on fixed office space. In response, the company has built a network of global workspaces that may enable people to work where and when they want. Regus offers fully-equipped meeting rooms, and every client gets a personalized service that meets their specific needs.
Regus has not expanded much into the United States, but it is actively seeking to do so. It is also open to franchising more locations around the world.
Why You May Want To Start a Regus Franchise
打开一个佛雷格斯系列可能是一个机会r an ambitious franchisee who would like to build a network of office locations. Franchisees do not typically need any prior business experience, but should be business-minded. This may also be a decent option for those looking to run a business remotely. You can, if you wish, run your business through a manager.
Regus has office spaces available in many important towns, cities, and transport hubs worldwide. Depending on their needs, a client can rent office space for an hour or years. If, for example, a company is working on a project for an important customer, it might be a good idea to rent an office near the company's headquarters for the project's duration.
What Might Make a Regus Franchise a Good Choice?
雷格斯客户机可以增加办公空间或开关locations as needed. This is a seemingly flexible response to growing demand as more and more businesses operate globally. That said, Regus is looking to expand into areas in the United States and globally that it does not yet cover with ten-year, renewable franchises.
To be part of the Regus franchise team, you should make sure you're financially ready for an initial investment made up of a franchise fee and other startup costs. In addition, you should prepare yourself for ongoing fees that will include advertising, royalty, and potential renewal fees. Franchisees will also need to meet the company's set net worth and liquid capital requirements.
How To Open a Regus Franchise
One of the major things to consider before opening a Regus franchise is your area’s traffic and potential appeal in regards to a Regus franchise. In other words, are you in a sleeper city full of commuters, or are you the place that people commute to? There may also be local competition, so you should see what your competitors are offering and the prices they charge.
Before making any financial commitment or signing an agreement, you must perform your due diligence to establish if this is the right franchise opportunity for you. As part of your due diligence, you may want to speak to existing franchisees and ask the Regus franchising team questions. For example, how does the Regus franchise handle vacancies or periods of low interest? What do they do about companies who stayed with Regus but wanted to switch locations? How does a potential territory switch affect you?
If Regus approves you as a franchisee, you'll most likely undergo training and receive full support as you continue with them.
