Explore Shoppers Guide, A Franchise Offering
INNOVATIVE DIGITAL ADVERTISING. SMART INVESTMENT
When it comes to marketing trends, digital advertising shows no signs of slowing. Projected to reach $298.4 billion in 2024, the US digital marketing juggernaut boasts an astounding 14.7% CAGR through 2027.
By building an unmatched platform within the digital marketing space, Explore Shoppers Guide offers a distinct franchise opportunity:
FAST POTENTIAL ROI
With low startup costs and overhead, Explore Shoppers Guide offers a fast potential ROI for a motivated owner/operator.
FLEXIBLE AND SCALABLE
Franchisees can add advertiser categories as they expand their reach in their local market, making the Explore Shoppers Guide model both flexible and scalable.
UNIQUE BRAND POSITIONING
Thanks to the one-of-a-kind, user-friendly platform, Explore Shoppers Guide has built a brand that has little direct competition and allows for market saturation.
SIMPLE OPERATING MODEL
The Explore Shoppers Guide’s easy-to-grasp business model offers convenience for advertisers, their customers, and franchisees, and is replicable in any market.
WIDE RANGE OF BENEFITS
The Explore Shoppers Guide model doesn’t require printing deadlines, and ads can be altered or updated at will. Additionally, ads are hot linked to advertisers’ websites, trackable by advertisers for ROI, and can be 15-30 second videos in place of an ad page. Advertisers pay the one-time cost up front, so there’s no invoicing or chasing payments.
Following decades of success in the magazine industry, founder Mitch Roberts saw a better way to advertise. By creating an innovative digital platform that combines a printed card and QR Barcode with an online website displaying up- to-the-minute digital ads, Explore Shoppers Guide connects luxury businesses with consumers in their local markets.
Compact physical cards in convenient holders are placed in various retail outlets and businesses, allowing advertisers to reach potential customers, while the easy- to-update digital platform delivers the latest sales, promotions, and other information. This best-of- both-worlds approach is convenient for both advertisers and their target audience. No more cumbersome and time-limited materials to design, print, and distribute. The postcard-sized card’s QR Barcode allows shoppers to easily stay abreast of what’s happening at their local clothing, jewelry, interior design businesses, restaurants, beauty salons, and more.
The Explore Shoppers Guide system can be easily grasped by a motivated entrepreneur with prior sales or business experience. Because building relationships is key to running a successful franchise, candidates should be highly regarded within their local communities and operate with complete integrity.
