Coconut Creatives have been working with Janine Eaglestone, founder of Woodland Dogs Ltd.  Janine and the Coconuts have been working together to launch the Woodland Dogs franchise operation which allows fellow animal lovers to run a profitable business from home.

Janine Eaglestone has managed to succeed when many others have failed before her in attempting to make money through working with animals.  Woodland Dogs Ltd was launched 5 years ago and she now generates in excess of £60K per year walking and caring for dogs.  Using her methodologies, systems and experience, others can now also learn how to run a successful, profitable and long term business with animals.

“I’m offering a fantastic lifestyle and profitable business venture.  Most people don’t know how to work with animals profitably, but I do.  You can learn Woodland Dogs’ unique systems and strategies through the training and support offered through this franchise opportunity” Janine says.

Janine is actively searching for franchisees who are skilled in customer care with great communication and organisation, franchisees who would love to become part of the Woodland Dogs team.

Some regular tasks for franchisees include:

• Visiting potential owners and their dogs
• Discussing their requirements and to ensure that the owner has a broad understanding of the costs
• Meeting the dogs to be walked in order to demonstrate compatibility
• Informing Woodland Dogs HO of those requirements and costs.
• Fulfilling the agreed contract with the owner
• Marketing the Woodland Dogs business locally
• Organising a diary of daily walks for owners’ dogs
• Picking up and dropping off dogs from their homes
• Walking different groups of dogs (6 – 12) two or three times a day in a safe and controlled environment.

Above all, Woodland Dogs franchisees offer exemplary service to dog owners and provide a safe, sociable and fun walking experience for the dogs in their care.

Pilot Franchise Opportunity in your area!

Coconut Creatives have been working with Whizz Bang Pop, the national children’s entertainment business to assist them to launch its franchise operation.

This franchise is ideal for people who do not want a 9 – 5 job behind a desk. It is for individuals that enjoy working with children where every day is different and brings new challenges and rewards.

Whizz Bang Pop is a children’s entertainment business with an established network of entertainers throughout the UK operated from its head office in Brighton. With over 4 years of trading history, Whizz Bang Pop has proved its business model is sustainable and reliable in a range of economic conditions, in providing entertainment for children aged 3 – 12 years old.

This is a BRAND NEW franchise looking for just TWO individuals to operate a pilot franchise within their area. A pilot franchise is the same as a normal franchise, just with an exceptionally low fee! Whizz Bang Pop will offer significant opportunities for the right individuals to completely change their lifestyle and have fun every day through entertaining children. Individuals can also consider operating a Whizz Bang Pop franchise as a management business with a network of their own entertainers.

Established in 2005 as a premier children’s entertainment business, Whizz Bang Pop is looking for enthusiastic, friendly and outgoing individuals to develop the Whizz Bang Pop children’s entertainment brand in their own area.

“The two pilot franchisees will be fully trained using our proven systems and entertainment techniques. We will only be looking for a small number of franchisees initially so that we can provide them with an excellent level of care,” explains Sally Davis, Managing Director.

The franchise package includes comprehensive training, support and an operations manual. Franchisees will launch with an integrated marketing campaign including a promotional launch! Leads are partly generated through the Whizz Bang Pop HQ and passed on to the franchisee within the area.

“What other job could encompass my three favourite things: fancy dress, singing and being silly? It is one of the most rewarding jobs I have ever had,” Elena Kyriacou, Whizz Bang Pop Entertainer, Sussex.

The Whizz Bang Pop package also includes an exclusive set of costumes, designed for Whizz Bang Pop by Renaissance Designs and custom made for each franchisee. “It is vital that Whizz Bang Pop costumes are unique and endearing. A Whizz Bang Pop children’s party is an experience like no other and the children really believe that they have met a fairy, princess or pirate!” adds Sally.

Exclusively for the first 2 pilot franchisees, the franchise fee is heavily reduced to just £7,595!

This includes FULL training, launch, operations manual and exceptional support from the experienced management team. Training includes shadowing a current Whizz Bang Pop entertainer, so you will feel completely comfortable and confident when the time comes to do it alone! For those looking for a challenging and fulfilling new career working with children, with flexible hours to suit your lifestyle and commitments, this is the franchise for you!

Franchise marketing specialists, Coconut Creatives embarked on a special kind of photo shoot recently with a ‘Charlie’s Angels’ theme to celebrate their growth.

The now six strong Coconut team consists of Directors Sarah and Christopher Cook and Marketing Specialists Sally Butters, Victoria Bel Gil and Sharon Kennedy along with Coconut in training, Stephanie Randell.

After an exceptionally busy year, the Coconuts went without a Christmas party. Now that the business has expanded with two new team members, the Directors decided it was time to celebrate and reward everyone’s hard work. “It is always very important to us that dedication and hard work is rewarded. Our team demonstrates exceptional levels of detail and commitment to each and every client account and we wanted to reward this in some small way,” explains Christopher Cook.

“The photo shoot was a lot of fun,” says Sarah who founded Coconut Creatives to offer specialist marketing advice to owner managed businesses and franchisors. “We also organised the shoot to capture images of the six of us together that we can use on our website and in literature in the future,” Sarah adds.

Just hours after Sarah and Stephanie had returned from a client’s book launch event in York, the Coconut party started with the photo shoot, followed by bubbly, nibbles and later a meal at Truffles Restaurant.

Newest Coconut, Sharon Kennedy started in January 2009 and has been working on client accounts with Sarah, Sally and Chris. “This really is a fantastic team of people to work with and I am looking forward to meeting more clients in the coming months,” says Sharon.

Coconut Creatives assist many franchisors with franchise recruitment, overall marketing and PR strategy. “Quite simply we have been very pleased in the work they have carried out for us,” explains Hugh James, Director for Murcia Villas and Resort Morocco.  “There has been an absolute commitment from the start to understand our particular business, establish how we could improve on our brand awareness and assist in completing the objectives of our franchise recruitment plan. All of which was achieved in 2008 and therefore we look forward to continuing our business relationship with Coconut Creatives throughout 2009.”

“We are honoured and delighted to be working with so many excellent and exciting franchise brands,” says Sarah Cook. “It has always been our goal to offer a professional franchise marketing service covering the areas of franchise recruitment, company branding and business development. And because we keep our consultancy fees low, our clients can afford to work with us over the long term, plus we occasionally get to let our hair down and throw a party!”

Coconut Creatives will again be offering free one 2 one consultancy clinics at this years Franchise Marketing Conference on the 17th September 2009.
