| Operations | PostNet only grants franchises to individuals that are planning on being involved initially as a full-time owner operator. Long term, full-time ownership and operation of the centers are not required; however, initially it is critical because PostNet is a neighborhood business and it is up to the individual store owner to become actively involved in the community to promote the services and products offered. With PostNet, every franchisee offers a core of proven and high-demand services and products through their PostNet Center. However, depending on the needs of the local market and the franchisee's own attributes, other complimentary services that are consistent with the other PostNet offerings may be approved by PostNet. Services, as bookkeeping, advanced computer and database services, and eBay selling services are just some examples of other services and products that PostNet franchisees offer to the public through their PostNet Centers. Initially an owner operator of a franchise will typically have one (1) to two (2) part-time or full-time staff members to help with the operation of the store. As the business grows, and you build a customer base, more employees and staff will be needed. Our highest volume locations have six (6) to seven (7) full-time staff members including the franchisee. | |
