| Training | New Operators will receive assistance with vendor options and layout designs from the RaceWay Store Set-up team if desired. Prior to opening, we encourage new Operators to train at an existing operating store for a week. For the first week of your store operation, a District Manager will train you on the use of all on-site equipment, daily reporting, and RaceWay s policies and procedures. | We offer comprehensive onsite training and support. Building up to your Grand Opening, we ll teach you and your employees everything you need to know to successfully operate your store. After the Grand Opening, you ll always have ongoing support to help you run your business efficiently. On-The-Job Training: 18 hours Classroom Training: 40 hours |
| Support | Meetings, Toll-free phone line, Grand opening, Internet, Field operations/evaluations | We'll help you decide if opening a new location or buying an existing Farm Stores is right for you. From there, we'll help you iron out all of the specifics, including zoning details, so you can move forward in the right direction. Training & Support. Research & Development. Distribution. Marketing & New Customer Acquisition. Meetings/Conventions Toll-Free Line Grand Opening Online Support Field Operations |
| Marketing | We are developing a marketing program that uses state-of-the-art technologies such as blogs, web presence, targeted research, and social media to generate sales and acquire new customers. We handle all of the web promotions and marketing so franchisees can focus on the day-to-day operations. Co-op Advertising | |
| Operations | Number of employees needed to run unit: 3 - 7 Most Operators operate only one store and that is the model that RaceWay prefers. We do allow certain Operators to operate more than one store based on factors like the distance between the first and second location and our evaluation of an Operator's potential to operate an additional store successfully. Allowing an Operator to run more than one store is entirely up to RaceWay, but if you are permitted to operate multiple stores, it doesn't mean we guarantee that you will be successful in either location. You will be required to operate your store continuously during the hours provided in your lease agreement usually from 6am - 11pm, 7 days per week. We strongly encourage every store to be open 24 hours a day. | We would prefer that our single-unit franchisees are hands-on owner operators. However, we understand that, especially in a multi-unit scenario, other managers will be required. We just ask that these managers exhibit the same level of hands-on dedication that an owner would. Farm Stores headquarters will train your managers according to our standards. Absentee Ownership Allowed Number of Employees Required to Run: 6 |
