Founded by 2020’s Business Woman of The Year, Sarra Bejaoui, join a team of inspirational leaders and innovative thinkers with SmartPA.
SmartPA is a business support and administration franchise transforming the way professionals work. Franchisees support their clients by remotely delivering a range of admin and business support solutions. Some will act as a virtual PA, while others may offer additional skills such as HR, finance or social media management.
Launched in 2008 offering remote administrative support to over 3,000 business clients globally, demand for our services has grown almost 30% in the past year - now is the perfect time to launch your virtual assistant business under the SmartPA brand.
More organisations than ever are relying on services provided by SmartPA. With that shift comes a golden opportunity. And that’s why now is the perfect time for you to successfully start your own Virtual Assistant Franchise business with SmartPA.
90% of small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) fail in their first year, but SmartPA businesses have a 98% success rate.
Franchisees who work full-time earn, on average, between £84,000 and £120,000 each year (and those working part-time earn between £30,000 and £48,000 on average).
SmartPA don’t restrict you by geographic territory (work from anywhere in the world and have clients anywhere in the world). Their recurring revenue model means that you can secure repeat business, ensuring a stable source of income and limitless earning opportunities.
SmartPA have worked with brands such as Google, Krispy Kreme and BBC. Launching your business with SmartPA gives you the opportunity to tap into their trusted brand and achieve instant recognition.
You will become a SmartPA business owner by buying into the SmartPA partnership franchise (the cost of which can be fully funded by a UK government backed startup loan). SmartPA then help you set up your own limited company.
Unlike starting your own business from scratch, where you’d have to tackle all the startup costs, challenges and risks on your own, you’ll have full daily support of their dedicated, friendly SmartPA support team, and you get to trade under the trusted, established global SmartPA brand, helping you hit the ground running straightaway.
SmartPA equip you with all the tools to succeed and expert knowledge and skills to run a successful Virtual Assistant Franchise. Their unrivalled programme covers everything from the SmartPA Method (best practice, remote working and service delivery) to pricing, business operations and long-term growth and development.
You will also be suppiled with a bonus client and you will identify and secure your own clients as you build your business. You may also be able to work with existing SmartPA clients (what we call ‘insourced’ clients) as part of the wider SmartPA team.
A SmartPA franchise can be a great opportunity for anyone looking to run their own business or be their own boss, or anyone wanting to balance work around other life commitments. Because the franchise can be run from home, it requires minimum overheads and offers a highly flexible working model to suit your own hours and availability. The franchise model has been tried and tested successfully around the world, with over 200 franchisees already thriving.
SmartPAs franchisees come from a variety of backgrounds. Previous experience is not essential, but a positive attitude is. SmartPA will provide the brand and the backing that allow you to build a successful business.
With peer-to-peer support, internal networking opportunities, wellbeing groups and much more, you’re never alone or without assistance from an expert.
Furthermore, SmartPA’s unique Insourcing model supports you and your business to grow. It provides both the opportunity to support and be supported by a more than 200-strong community across the globe.
