Our Customer
35-55 year old female, married or single; professional and/or has worked in a corporate environment; downsizing or renovating; they are entertaining family and guests in their homes; setting up home offices; and a beautifully decorated environment is a priority.
Our Franchisee
35-50 years old, married or single; professional and/or has worked in a corporate environment; almost identical traits and characteristics as our customer, possess a real appreciation/passion for home décor, and a keen desire to control their financial future.
Talk About Support
Swank Kitchens Inc. the parent company continually develops relationships with reputable off-shore manufacturers; and Swank Interiors Inc. our retail division works tirelessly to ensure that all products are well accepted and marketing, sales and operational activities are tested and perfected prior to being offered to the franchisee.
Designer Network
Interior designers and stagers have shopped many years for their clients at Swank. The Swank Designer Network program, a plan specifically designed to work seamlessly with the interior designer community and the franchisee, financially benefits both parties.
Your Own Professional Kitchen Designer
Kitchen retailers rely a great deal on full-time kitchen designers for design and sales. These highly qualified designers tend to be costly and often move from a good paying job to another. This is no longer the case. Once a qualified lead has been generated by a perfectly trained member of your team, from that point on, Swank manages the myriad of details on your behalf. The franchisee simply does what they do best – treat the customer in a thoughtful and professional manner.
No Royalty
There is no royalty on product revenues. Period.
Site Selection
Our real estate specialists will assist you in locating and negotiating a winning location.
Training
Many of the franchisees approved by Swank will have no home furnishing or retail experience. With the right attitude and applicable skills, a franchisee will excel with our compressive and on-going training programs. They are unmatched in the industry.
Operations
From the first week of opening, a Swank specialist will work onsite to ensure things go smoothly. The entire franchise team is available to answer your questions and to help with your business challenges from that day forward.
Purchasing and Merchandising
Knowing what to buy and how to display it can be an overwhelming task. Swank specialists are available every step of the way to ensure the Swank 200 Collection together with correct inventory levels are beautifully displayed.
Advertising and Marketing
From local newspaper advertising materials to direct mail and regional magazine advertisements, Swank provides it all. A yearly marketing plan coordinates usage of these materials for maximum effect.
