Real Estate

Once you become a franchise owner, our real estate professionals will work with you in identifying the best site for your business. Nick-N-Willy’s has an established real estate network around the country with real estate professionals situated in your local market. These specialized individuals are very familiar with our site requirements and demographic profile and you will have the opportunity to work with these highly trained individuals who will guide you through the process of selecting and securing the best site for your business. Your real estate professional will negotiate the best lease terms possible with the landlord and work with you every step of the way.

Construction

We provide a complete turnkey package for design, permits and construction. Our construction management department will prepare all necessary construction drawings and tender packages and will manage the complete construction of your store from start to finish. After finalization of the tender and selection of the contractor by you, our construction department will manage and oversee all facets of construction from its beginning to the store turnover to you and your opening support team for your new store.

Financing

Nick-N-Willy’s has engaged financing brokers who are dedicated to shop your business loan for you for the best rates and terms. However, if you have an established banking relationship, the best place to start is your own bank. After you become a franchise owner, Nick-N-Willy’s or your local corporate designated Area Developer, will assist you in preparing the necessary business plans and loan submission information for your bank or financial institution of your choosing.

It is very common in the franchising business for a franchise owner to obtain government sponsored business loans for up to 80% of the total costs associated with setting up a franchised business. However, business loans for 65% of total costs are more readily available and are most common. In order to qualify for these types of loans, financial institutions typically require a net worth of not less than $250,000 and unencumbered liquid assets or cash equal to 25% to 35% of the total cost of setting up the franchise business to support the loan application.

Marketing

Our national advertising program allows for Nick-N-Willy’s to maintain a strong marketing department dedicated to creating new marketing materials and promotions for the use of all franchise owners. The marketing department also oversees production of all new electronic media including TV and radio commercials for national, regional and local broadcasting and brand awareness throughout markets we operate stores. In addition, our marketing professionals assist our franchise owners in utilizing our proven marketing materials and techniques to locally promote their stores and participate in community events in their local market.
