Why Choose an MBE Franchise? There are many reasons to choose an MBE Franchise - we offer a number of advantages to our potential candidates:Industry Honours and Recognition MBE is the leader in our industry. We have been named the #1 Business Services franchise for the past 9 years and have been ranked as one of the top 20 franchises in the world since 1992 by Entrepreneur Magazine. Since our beginnings in 1980 as a mail receiving and shipping depot, Mail Boxes Etc. has been defining and re-defining itself to meet the needs of today's customer. Today, MBE is the largest network of digital copy centres in Canada. We offer computer rental and graphics services and we are actively pursuing relationships with Canada's leading e-commerce companies to provide them with critical fulfillment and returns services. In January 1999 Entrepreneur Magazine ranked MBE as the number-one postal business services franchise and number seven overall in its annual "Franchise 500." For the last several years MBE has consistently ranked number one in its category and in the top 10 of Entrepreneur's ranking of all franchises. Also Entrepreneur International named MBE the number-one business service franchise in 1996, 1998 and 1999. Growing Market MBE is well-positioned to take advantage of future business trends. The growth of outsourcing and telecommuting offer tremendous opportunities for our franchisees and for our network to develop new products, services and revenue streams. The growing demand for MBE services is creating many new opportunities to operate centres outside of our traditional neighbourhood locations. These exciting potential opportunities include airports, hotels and convention centres. Working Environment Catering to the Small Office, Home Office (SOHO) business market and to those individuals requiring business services means that you'll operate during business hours, and your work won't be back-breaking manual labour. You will also have the security of knowing that you are working in a clean, safe environment. Networking, Training and Support MBE offers an extensive training program in marketing, and operations. In addition to the initial training that we provide, MBE offers ongoing operational support and professional development programs to our franchisees both from Corporate Office and from Area Franchisees, who are experienced partners that are dedicated to ensuring the growth and prosperity of individual centres. MBE Canada has also created an online website resource for our franchisees. This enables the members of the MBE Canadian network to have to access the latest marketing materials as soon as they are produced by our team of experts. Some examples of the abundance of marketing wealth that a franchisee can obtain are: downloads of the latest marketing materials; continuing information on our national marketing campaign; and there are also community areas on the site where franchisees can find and exchange new ways of growing in business. Local/National Advertising and Marketing Programs A variety of sales promotion, public relations and publicity programs will be available to you as a franchisee. Franchisees are supplied with professional print, radio and television advertising. Strategic Partners The Mail Boxes Etc. network has attracted world-class strategic partners such as Xerox, UPS, Federal Express, and Canpar, who are dedicated to providing our franchisees with the best programs, training and support in the industry. We are constantly working with our strategfic partners to develop new markets and services. For example, Xerox Canada has developed and supports a website for MBE franchisees in order to provide them with up-to-the-minute equipment specifications, help files, documentation, document templates and contact information for Xerox area representatives. But What About You? MBE is really about people. Our greatest asset is the franchisees that provide world-class customer service, and we are commiteed to inviting only the most qualified and dedicated candidates to join our franchise network.
