FAQs
What sets Laser apart from its competitors?
Laser is the largest Plumbing and Electrical Franchise in New Zealand; we are also closely partnered with Obrien's in Australia, sharing some resources. This size and scale mean we can get great support from our supply partners, invest in technology that will support growing your business and, importantly, give you an instant network of Plumbers and Electricians that many refer to as a family.
What are your expectations of your franchise owners?
Laser has built a reputation for service and quality over the years; our customer feedback constantly reflects this. It is essential that quality and customer service are paramount for you. If you can check those boxes, you are on the right track. However, by joining the group, we expect to help you grow your business, which will require you to take on new ways and ideas when it comes to running your business. Our systems are tried and tested, so you will need to come with an open mind and a willingness to grow.
How much could I expect to gross/net in first year, second year, and third year?
The profit will entirely depend on the size of your business when you join. As part of our assessment, we help project some of the additional savings or costs you will have with us in the first year; we want to make sure you are better off by being part of the group. After that, we will help you with forecasting and budgeting for the year to work towards your financial goals. We will also benchmark you against our other members to identify areas to get some quick wins.
How long will it take to see the benefits of my business joining Laser?
You will start getting support for your business from the day you join. Like any business, it will require you to do some demanding work to realise the benefits. The value of these benefits can take months or even years to realise fully, but we have a great roadmap and support to help grow your business.
What are the financial obligations? Ongoing fees?
When you join, you commit to a minimum of five years; after that, you have the right to renew your contract. A minimal monthly fee contributes to the services you receive, such as your licenses for the accounting packages you will need to run your business. A percentage of your revenue will go towards marketing the brand and your business, along with the administration support you will receive.
How will Laser help drive demand for my business?
Our Group Marketing Fund (GMF) is our national programme responsible for lifting the overall awareness of the Laser brand and the services we offer to drive demand. The Local Marketing Package (LMP) provides the tools and resources to increase local demand for your business further.
