We look for people who have demonstrated sales and customer service skills and who will be able work to develop larger clients and new business within their territory. A valid driver's license and reliable transportation are critical, and computer skills are also important. We prefer franchise owners who will be directly involved in the operations and growth of their EZFingerPrints franchises. In turn, we'll provide the support franchisees need to run their EZFingerPrints business. We do, of course, also expect that franchisees have the right amount of capital to invest in the business. |
