Franchising
Makes Sense

has an economy of scale that enables us to negotiate exceptional prices
with vendors; thus, giving you a chance for huge savings on all your
supplies.
- Internet Business: EmbroidMe participates
in an aggressive pay-per-click program that not only keeps us on top
of our competitors, but is strategically designed to drive traffic
to your store.
- System-wide Networking: Not only do EmbroidMe
franchisees enjoy the advantage of networking and referrals from other
EmbroidMe franchisees, they also share the unique advantage of the
Star-Point Services program which expands their networking possibilities
to include sister brands SIGN*A*RAMA and Billboard Connection.
- Free Marketing Materials: As part of an
EmbroidMe franchise you receive marketing support in the form of professionally
designed marketing and direct-mail materials.

franchisee has the advantage of a retail design expert who will help
make the most of a store’s layout.

in the industry by Entrepreneur every year since we began. All EmbroidMe
franchisees profit from the name recognition associated with being
part of the world’s #1 embroidery franchise.
