The Franchise Opportunity

About You

It’s your personality that matters more than your experience in making your centre or multi-centres fly. The characteristics which particularly resonate with us are:

Passion for bringing high-quality massage to the masses
Good communication skills
Hands-on approach, leading a team or teams from the front
Customer-focused and comfortable with selling the benefits of membership
Organised
Ambitious and committed – personally and financially

Support for your journey

If you love working with others, have an interest in the health and wellbeing sector and the ambition to grow your own successful business, we can provide the tools and knowledge to help you become part of our successful membership massage franchise. You won’t be doing any massage, as Owner-Operators run their centres, managing their team or teams of therapists.

If you are looking for a hands-off business please see our page for Investors.

Financials

You’ll be running a high margin, positive cash flow business – which means great ROI as you establish your centre or centres.

Each TMC centre typically has up to 12 massage therapy rooms, 20-30 staff and up to 2,000 clients a month.

The potential returns of owning one or more of our centres are significant – see below for headline figures to give an idea of the scale of the opportunity. A full and transparent breakdown of the financials will be discussed as part of the process of applying to become a franchisee with The Massage Company.

Meet our franchisees

"We wanted a business that would, once established, provide a steady income whilst balancing with a healthy home life, cutting out the commute. It requires a lot of time and energy to get it right initially, but once established will allow for a much better balance and is hugely rewarding to see the benefits that we can bring to the community."

Next steps

Starting a business is a serious commitment, and one you need to be sure about. You also need to know if we’re the right business partner for you. Equally, our franchisees are our brand ambassadors so we need to be sure you’re right for us too.

That’s why becoming a The Massage Company franchisee is a process of information-sharing, based on our company values of transparency and openness. You’ll get answers to all of your questions, and be given the time you need to think things through.
