Testimonials

I just arrived back to the U.S. from traveling to Asia on a combined franchising trade mission as a Department of Commerce and IFA event in Singapore, Thailand and Hong Kong.  While in Asia, I was able to visit Lilian Lim in FranNet Malaysia who had thirteen appointments for me.  I accompanied Lilian to a popular television news station who called her at the last moment requesting she come for a live interview.  Although I did not understand anything except "FranNet" she conducted herself very professionally and was a great representative of FranNet. 

I spent several days in Shanghai, China, where Helen, FranNet Shanghai had eleven appointments scheduled.  While visiting Helen, she made me feel a part of the family.  We went to dinner with her husband and son and they showed me Shanghai and even found enough time to take me on a shopping trip.  This truly helped me understand the culture.  Soo Kong Lim has worked well with us during this process and has proved to be extremely professional and dedicated. 
 
I would highly recommend to any franchisor that has committed to the international marketplace, to visit FranNet wherever they have committed expansion.  We believe it is two fold.  First, to educate us as a franchisor, regarding the cultural changes needed and secondly, meeting with the candidates that have been prequalified by FranNet to expedite the process for both parties. 
 
I commend you on your qualification process as your international FranNets are extremely professional, aggressive, and hospitable.  I am convinced we will have a master in the FranNet countries I visited in the near future. 
 
My best to you and your team,

“Congratulations to FranNet Asia Pacific.

Foot Solutions signed a contract with their client SLK
Enterprise for Master Development agreements for Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei.

The referrals that they sent to us are already pre-screened and pre- qualified, companies with the right financial resources to develop our franchise within their own country.
FranNet Asia Pacific is unique in its capabilities. They know the territory , they have professional people on the ground and were very helpful in coordinating trademark filings through local firms thus saving us substantial cost over using a US firm.
In addition they also helped in facilitating communication and coordinating visits and training sessions with the franchisee.
FranNet Asia Pacific did an outstanding job of representing Foot Solutions on an International level.

Foot Solutions goes International in 2004, thanks to FranNet. Asia Pacific”

They are very professional and dedicated in helping potential Asian clients cross the cultural devide to find the right match in every sense of the word.
They helped us go international when they brought us our first international master franchisee.
I look forward to continue working with them to expand our international network."

"After surfing the Internet for almost a year looking for a suitable franchise, our company decided to check out the newly opened FranNet office in Kuala Lumpur.
Within 2 months we were on a plane to Atlanta to meet the founder of Foot Solutions and now we are targeting to open our flagship store in June 2004, the first Foot Solutions store in Asia.
The FranNet Consultants worked very hard to help us identify business opportunities that matched our company’s goals and objectives for new challenges and growth.
The fact that these franchisors were already pre-screened and evaluated as successful companies made it easier for us to decide. Their direct access to senior management of the franchise business facilitated our due diligence. They guided us systematically through the research process and in many instances went the extra mile to ensure that we have the information that we need.
We have enjoyed working with FranNet Asia Pacific and we look forward to an ongoing relationship with them. They have given us excellent service and we have a lot of respect for their professionalism and integrity."

"I knew I wanted to have my own business and be my own boss, but just
wasn’t sure what kind would be right for me. I went to a Franchise
Exhibition and met a FranNet consultant and subsequently attended their
Seminar on "How To Choose The Right Franchise For You". The seminar was very provocative and gave me more in-depth information on franchising and how FranNet could help me achieve my goal.
FranNet helped me build my roadmap and then recommended two franchises that matched my goals for further research. They were both excellent business opportunities and I eventually picked the one where I could leverage and capitalize on my experiences and skills. My FranNet Consultant was committed to guide and help me throughout my due diligence. Today, I am in business for myself, but not by myself."
 

Anisa Hassan, Singapore

“When I started working with my FranNet Consultants, I told them specifically that I wanted a business consulting franchise. They walked me through the FranNet methodology of building my profile first because whether I will be successful in my business would depend on what I select to match the goals in my business and personal life.

At our second meeting, they recommended three franchise businesses for further research. It was obvious that they had done their homework very well in developing my profile as my final decision matched their first choice for me.

Working with FranNet has been a great adventure. They are very knowledgeable and guided me in the right direction. I have just completed my training with the franchisor in the US and I am looking forward to open my first office very soon.

If you are looking for what is right for you I recommend them very highly. They know me better than myself!

I wouldn't have been able to find such a phenomenal business
opportunity if it hadn't been for Frannet and both soo kong and LiLian!”
