About The Wedding Guide

The Wedding guide is a unique marketing package which enables you to offer the potential for increased sales to over 30 categories of local businesses deriving income from the wedding industry. This is achieved by targeting 80-90% of prospective brides and their families in your area, up to two years before the wedding date. The local franchisee assembles a portfolio of approved suppliers who are then listed in and may advertise in the directory. Approved suppliers can then also receive probably the largest, cheapest, and most effective mailing list available in the industry. In addition the approved suppliers are able to take part in wedding exhibitions arranged by the franchisee.

Proven business

The franchise has operated successfully in the USA and the UK since 1983. Profits in excess of £16,000 in the first year, and subsequently in excess of £30,000 are regularly achieved.

How does it work?

You will establish your own Publishing/Marketing business with The Wedding Guide as its initial product. Your responsibilities are to sell the services to your recommended suppliers, distribute the guide through our unique distribution channels and generate your mailing list via our Bride of the Year competition, where we provide the first prize of a £2,500 Tropical Honeymoon and travel voucher worth £50 for all entrants.

Minimum performance objectives are built into the programme and once these are achieved, there is no restriction on you extending your business into other areas or developing additional product lines.

Franchise support

Initial training at our offices takes only 3-4 days and we will give you actual experience of meeting professional clients in the field. You will be allocated a director, who is an existing successful franchisee, to come to your territory to help you with early presentations to clients. We are always available at the end of the telephone to help with any problems you may be encounter as and when they arise. We have almost certainly met them before! You will also have the full backing of our art department and print services at all times as well as start up stock of all materials necessary to take you to production of your first book, which will be within the first 6 to 8 months.

Franchise investment

The license fee which includes training and start up stock is £17,500.

Royalties are calculated on a sliding scale so the more you earn the smaller your percentage royalty will be. Also the business is yours to sell, so that your initial investment will become an asset increasing in value as the business grows.
