You're serious about investing in a staffing franchise opportunity and just need some information on how you can get started. You've been working hard for someone else and your drive and determination are telling you that this is the right time to make great things happen. You've started taking a thorough inventory of your financial situation; including listing all of your assets, debts and how much funding you'll be able to provide. You have some savings but you know that you will still need some additional capital in order to take advantage of this great opportunity. These are the top 3 places where you can find additional funding so that your staffing franchise dreams can come true.

Once a Staffing Franchise is established, the next question is typically, what is the best way to grow it?

During a session at the International Franchise Expo held in New York last year, several female franchisees and franchisors shared insights and tips on how they established themselves in the Franchise Industry. During this time, they also pointed out that "Franchising is not a business opportunity for men alone now", and how more franchise owners today are women. They are using their communication and people skills along with their strong work ethics to make a difference in this industry. Last year, Bizwomen, an online journal geared towards women entrepreneurs, reported that nationally, women-owned franchises have increased 45 percent from 2007 to 2016. Why are more women looking to franchising and why is the Staffing Franchise Industry such a perfect fit?

According to the latest statistics from the American Staffing Association, the staffing industry directly provides employment for over 16 million people annually in the USA. This is against a backdrop of the significant role it plays in providing recruitment services and workforce solutions for other sectors across the country. The industry is, therefore, intricately intertwined in the production fabric that sustains the economy at large.

The staffing industry is booming as the demand for highly skilled workers continues to climb. The American Staffing Association states "Since the recovery began in July 2009, staffing employment has been growing more than two times faster than the economy and just over six times more rapidly than overall employment. "The industry is still growing, with niches to be identified and developed in all areas of the country.  Would you like to be part of this trend? You might consider opening a franchise operation in your community under the umbrella of a larger, more established organization.

For an entrepreneur who wants to learn from one of the best in the business, a franchise is a way to enter the field fully supported by the tools and infrastructure of an industry leader. Although unemployment has eased since 2009, the demand for highly-educated workers in the technology, healthcare, engineering and financial sectors still leaves companies needing staff on a temporary or project/contract basis. Staffing companies now address a broad array of business needs, from leave replacements to temp-to-hire recruiting support, from specialized teams that move between organizations to human resources consulting.
