Every #Franchisor has a challenge they are facing. 😫 AND guess what??? It's likely to be a challenge that other franchisors are facing too. 😏 Sharing those challenges with others and seeing how they tackled that challenge in the past is the main focus of the agenda at #FITT 💡 Franchising for yourself, not by yourself. (We've heard a similar phrase somewhere before haven't we??) Got a problem to share?

Across LinkedIn you will find loads of posts promoting the Franchise Innovation Think Tank (FITT). We do that to ensure as many people as possible get to hear about the events and community. BUT there is nothing quite like reviews and testimonials from the FITT community members themselves. From those who have lived and breathed the experience, those who keep coming back. At FITT HQ (That's Ed Purnell , Tim Morris and Andy Henderson...just in case you've been off social media for the last 9 months 🤣 ) we truly value the comments of everyone who attends, so we can keep on improving the experience for everyone. Our next event is booked and confirmed for October 16th. We would love to see you there. Check your calendar - if the day is free, why not get yourself to the Iron House for the day. We are pretty certain you will have an exceptional time. Check out what Rachel Brooks QFP had to say, below.

A moment in time ⌚ 📷 One of the great things about the Franchise Innovation Think Tank (FITT) is capturing images of the day....literally hundreds of them. 🤼 They remind us of the deep conversations everyone has Picture this: a diverse group of passionate franchise professionals, in deep discussion, finding solutions to challenges. It's moments like these that remind us why FITT was launched and why collaboration is key to innovation. Watching FITTers share insights, challenge assumptions, and brainstorm solutions has been truly inspiring. We're not just talking about change, attendees at FITT actively make it happen. From questioning traditional norms to embracing new perspectives, every voice in the room is valued and heard. This pic shows a perfect example of just one 'moment in time' at FITT in April. Millions of pounds worth of franchising knowledge in the room finding solutions.

Hello, what's all this then? We've made it onto the Elite Franchise website! Nice 😎 #fitt

You know you’re doing something right when one of the #franchise industries biggest media outlets want to be a part of what you’re doing. 😀 BUT we want to be really careful about who we work with… AND we want to protect the integrity of the safe environment we’ve created for #franchisors. That’s why when Elite Franchise asked how they could support us, we thought long and hard about how the relationship could benefit our members. 🤔 We know that they have a great list of franchise contacts around the world and saw an opportunity for them to support us in sourcing our future “Not A Keynote” speakers. 💡 It’s a win-win for everyone and we’re really chuffed to have them supporting us in this and in the promotion of our amazing community. 💪 No money is changing hands, just two organisations working together to improve and grow the amazing community we’re building #FITT Exciting times! 🙌
