Franchising multiple units of an early childhood education<\/a> and care center can be a lucrative business option for aspiring entrepreneurs who want to own a business without starting from scratch. However, running a child care center can be intimidating for some. Raj and Veenu Parkash, 15-year multi-unit franchisees of Lightbridge Academy<\/a>, share their experience of developing a holistic view of the business to inspire prospective franchisees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Raj and Veenu underscore the importance of investing time in learning and understanding the different aspects of managing a franchise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot just say that you are going to hire people and let them run the business,\u201d Raj said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Operations, finance, human resources, strategy, and marketing all require attention. A solid understanding of each department’s functions allows you, as a franchisee, to make informed decisions about your business. Veenu\u2019s dedication to spending a year and a half in Lightbridge Academy centers to gain a firm grasp of how the business works proved invaluable when she and Raj started their first center.<\/span><\/p>\n

For a franchise like Lightbridge Academy, which provides early education and care for children aged six weeks through kindergarten, understanding the education and curriculum offered enables franchisees to uphold our <\/span>Circle of Care<\/span><\/a> philosophy, which centers on the child\u2019s needs. This fosters children\u2019s growth and development and gives parents and caregivers confidence in the center.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re considering multi-unit franchising, remember that with commitment and the right support, you too can develop a holistic business perspective and run a successful franchise like Raj and Veenu. At Lightbridge Academy, we do just that.
