Posted on May 16, 2008 06:22:57 PM

It’s no surprise the Internet has changed the way people do business. Franchising has benefited at least as much as other industries. It’s made it easier for franchisors and franchisees to find each other and communicate. The brandEXPANSION Team takes full advantage of these technologies to pair potential franchisees with the top franchises. Seizing on the popularity of social networking, the company has launched Franchise Ultra Lounge. The site brings franchisors and franchisees together through its various services. It is the place for getting the latest franchise industry news, plus tips to run your business or find the right franchise. The blogs are updated regularly and from here, you can link back to other popular sites of The brandEXPANSION Team.

The site offers free membership. Though you can read the site without a membership, you’ll need to join to access chats, blogs and webinars. You’ll also build credit points by participating in the site and can exchange them for sponsor rewards. Registering is very easy, all you have to do is give your e-mail address and a password. Once you become a member of Franchise Ultra Lounge, you can enjoy chatting with fellow members and ask questions in the forum on different aspects of the franchising industry. The site is easy to navigate and visually appealing. The menus in the right hand corner are divided according to the services offered and all points are well explained.

The webinars are one of the best features of Franchise Ultra Lounge. They allow the franchisees and franchisors to meet face-to-face in the virtual world and interact with each other. Then there are video casts and audio casts, which a franchisor or a service provider may use to attract new franchisees or train the old ones. They can be downloaded and viewed by the target group at their own convenience. Becoming a sponsor here means that the company will be listed in other brandEXPANSION sites like First Prize Franchise, brandEXPANSION Hot Press and Franchise Reviews. The sponsors also get franchisee leads that can help them to expand their businesses considerably.
