National Award Win For activ and UK Expansion for Our Marketing Franchise

We are excited to share some fantastic news! On 10th June we proudly accepted the “Best Adaptation to Change” award at the prestigious Virtual Franchise Awards 2024, organised by the Quality Franchise Association UK.

This award is a huge recognition of our innovative new model, which is designed to help us grow our network across the UK positioning us as the best digital marketing franchise. In response to the dynamic market conditions of 2024, we’ve introduced several key features that cater specifically to modern needs and trends in the digital marketing industry.

Our new franchise model includes a consultant-led trading brand, allowing franchisees to use their own name alongside our brand. This approach is perfect for the recent surge in marketing consultants and influencers who often find it harder than they expect to ‘go it alone’. To further support their journey, we offer:

  • An Expert Support Panel: Providing comprehensive business coaching to address specific knowledge gaps and help franchisees thrive.
  • Internal CPD Scheme: Ensuring consistent training and professional development for our franchisees.
  • Flexibility and Empowerment: Enabling franchisees to maintain their individuality while benefiting from our established brand reputation and resources.

Under the exceptional leadership of our Managing Director Katie Bullon, we have continued to excel, becoming the longest-running digital marketing franchise in the UK and setting new standards of excellence in the industry.

Katie expressed her excitement, saying, “We are thrilled to receive this prestigious award. It is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team. Our new franchise model, which we launched just a few months ago, is designed to empower future generations of marketing entrepreneurs, providing them with the tools and support they need to succeed. It really complements our existing model which has been in place since 2008, allowing us to welcome a new type of franchisee.”

Just last month, we welcomed our first consultant-led franchisee, Lou Eddy, covering the Basingstoke area. Seasoned marketer Louise Eddy is already making waves, gaining media attention, and growing her client base with our support.

Our vision has always been about creating a strong, adaptable business model to navigate the ever-evolving digital marketing landscape. This award is a recognition of our strategic adjustments and forward-thinking approach to franchise development.

As we continue to expand, we remain deeply committed to our franchisees across the UK. This award underscores our resilience and readiness to lead in a competitive market, setting a high standard for others to follow.
