"The support provided by our franchisor is second to none. We could not do without their expertise in all areas. We are linked by intranet to all other franchise owners and communicate daily. We subcontract work to each other and rely on each other's experience and expertise in areas we are still learning. That is the best part of being part of a franchise."
“FASTSIGNS made the whole idea of new product opportunities and new solutions come alive for our current clients. It was also a good fit because it brought a lot of new resources that we really didn’t have available to us before…training, research, new product support, operational support.”
"If I ever have a problem to deal with, it's sent to my FASTSIGNS support team. I know I can end the day with sending an email describing my problem, and come in the next morning with several possible solutions from the FASTSIGNS support team. This is the best business decision we ever made. We wish we had done this 10 years before we did."
Good relationships are based on trust, mutual success and consistent value. Strong personal relationships have fueled our growth over the past 20 years, from the hotel where I started years ago to new more than 40 hotels in New Orleans and across the country. The same holds true with our strong relationship with the FASTSIGNS team. We are winning larger projects from school systems and hospitals as a direct result of the FASTSIGNS name on the Door!
"Choosing to start this business was one of the most important and worthwhile decisions I ever made. I knew I wanted to be with the leader in the field. That was FASTSIGNS in 1995 and it’s even truer today. Marketing and technical support second to none, but most of all a team dedicated to my success both today and in the long run. I have never regretted my choice."
FASTSIGNS provides all the tools and flexibility to operate our business; the support site and staff delivers all the necessary ingredients for SUCCESS! The support staff will stay on the phone many hours (if needed) to resolve any issue we may have. This dedication to success makes us proud to be owners of a FASTSIGNS franchise.
"We were well prepared to open our business and we continue to receive terrific support for our day-to-day needs in our market. The success of our business is dependent on our focus in the market. If expectations are not met, it is because of our performance, not the franchisor."
"FASTSIGNS takes out much of the guess work and walks you through every aspect of moving into the signage and visual graphics field. They help me with everything from purchasing the right equipment to marketing the service offering to existing and potential customers. Words don’t describe how much of a relief it is to have a business partner I can turn to on an ongoing basis who understands my business and knows the best way to continue moving it in the right direction."
"One great thing about being a FASTSIGNS franchise partner is that it gives me the ability to help my community. When I joined FASTSIGNS, I didn't just open another business - I became part of the growth of Durango. As a FASTSIGNS owner, I have daily opportunities to help other businesses and organizations thrive, which in turn keeps our community strong and growing. With FASTSIGNS, I get to own my own business, my schedule is flexible, and I don't have to work weekends. It's the best of both worlds."
“We began looking into franchises and FASTSIGNS instantly stood out from the rest. We weren’t just blown away by the business model – it was also the great resources and ongoing support they provide franchisees.”
The support from Signwave has been fantastic. Their knowledge of the industry, business planning and management, technology and the processes and systems from SIGNWAVE.
"FASTSIGNS is the full package – excellent training and start up support, professional ongoing marketing nad technical support, respected by suppliers and customers."
FASTSIGNS continues to be the perfect business model for us to reach our personal financial goals. With the brand awareness, operational support, and training resources, FASTSIGNS positions us to be the predominant visual communications leader in the market.
“Before owning a FASTSIGNS franchise, I was a high school teacher and wanted an independent job. Now, I’m a successful entrepreneur, but I’m not in business by myself. The training and support that I receive from FASTSIGNS is tremendous.”
With the FASTSIGNS model, we can expand our client based with a storefront presence and capitalize on the trend of businesses investing increasingly more money into digital signage and other visual communication needs and less on traditional media advertising.
"FASTSIGNS is a top notch organization with a wealth of knowledge and talent and has always succeeded because they believe that when and only when the franchisee is successful they will be. I strongly encourage others to seek out FASTSIGNS in their franchise search. I am glad I did!"
We liked the sign industry and where it is heading technologically, and FASTSIGNS is the top dog in the category. It was important to me that I have an experienced team of professionals behind me that were dedicated to achieving my success. There’s no better system than FASTSIGNS if you’re looking to get into the business.
