Business description
Theimagefile.com provides, through a small network of Regional Franchisees, an exciting web based business allowing professional photographers to access a secure web application to build their web sites and easily generate and fulfil their online sales.

A Regional Franchisee is now sought for Scotland to service the existing clients and to expand the business. Regional Franchisees need to be sales oriented people who have a strong customer care ethic and rounded business awareness. The Franchise can be operated from home or serviced offices and provides the opportunity to develop a substantial business.

Years established: three

Home based: This business can be run from home.

Relocatable: This business can be relocated.


Location
The business is totally web based so it will usually be operated from a home office by the franchisee within the particular territory and from here they will develop a portfolio of photographers who use the service.

Expansion potential
There is considerable potential with a prospect base of 20,000 photographers in the UK and Ireland the scope for growth is huge. Photographers pay a monthly subscription, invoices and sales data are generated by the system automatically. Image sales are also made through the website to the users of the image bank and to customers driven to the site by the photographers generating additional income streams for the franchise.

Competition / Market
Theimagefile has grown since launch in 2005 and now has over 9 million images available for sale on it. There is very little competition so far in this sector.

Support & training
Full induction and on going training plus full support for the web based operating system

Reasons for selling
The UK business has expanded so the country is being divided, by country and postcode, to bring on Regional Franchisees before rolling out the concept internationally

Financing available
Finance is available through Lloyds TSB
