Welcome to your Liquid Planet opportunity!
Interested in owning and operating your own Liquid Planet? Below you'll find the basic answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding franchising the Liquid Planet brand and concept. For further inquiries, please contact us at company@liquidplanet.com.
Why Liquid Planet?
First and foremost, because life revolves around beverage! Rarely do we humans ever spend much time with friends and family without a beverage® of some kind in hand. Liquid Planet is the first beverage company to bring the Best of Beverage under one roof and one brand. We are also the first company to develop a full line of all-natural and organic beverage products that consumers can trust for a healthy lifestyle. Unlike most companies that only offer a logo and a couple of coffee drinks, Liquid Planet provides our Franchisees a complete, healthy, and sustainable line of signature Liquid Planet branded beverage products, all of which are served behind a Liquid Planet beverage bar. This includes an extensive line of coffees, teas, smoothies, frappés, sodas, chais, cocoas, syrups and sauces -- even the cups and lids are biodegradeable and compostable. Everything you need to operate a healthy beverage bar, along with support and training....from a single, trusted and experienced source!
Why Franchising?Franchising a Liquid Planet is a simple agreement between us. You commit to purchase and represent the Liquid Planet brand, menu and products for use in your own beverage shop. We support you with store development, training, and business management. Together we create an experience like no other, and an environment which will attract customers of all kinds. Everyone drinks something, and our menu tends to bring customers in from morning til night.
Liquid Planet offers franchise opportunities for a few specific and simple reasons. We want to allow our Franchisees the freedom to customize their business as they see fit. We believe a Liquid Planet needs to be a reflection of its owners and community, not a cookie-cutter concept. We're here to help ensure your success by providing support, training, and the healthiest yummiest beverage products this side of Neptune. While we have general guidelines to follow in terms of store locations, size, layout, signage, and look and feel -- we invite you to make it your own and create some local personality that's alluring to your local community. Ideally each location would be so unique that customers will want to visit them all!
What's the Opportunity?Liquid Planet provides you an opportunity to own and operate your OWN successful beverage shop while having our years of experience and expertise backing you up. Typically, coffee shops and beverage bars must order product from multiple companies with no unifying concept, no crossover between products and recipes, and with no overall marketing and branding behind them. Liquid Planet has unified the beverage world inside an inviting environment for all day sales. Every location will be unique to its geography and customer base since, as a Franchisee, you know your community and what your customers needs and wants are. It's a perfect partnership...Liquid Planet provides you with the branding, operational support and products to run smoothly, and you know what your local customers would like, how to get them in the door and keep them coming back.
Are we a Fit for Each Other?Being a Franchisee requires one main thing: passion for the beverage business. Yes, it does help if you have previous experience in the beverage world. However, even a novice can be successful if you're driven, passionate and hands-on enough. Franchising a Liquid Planet though is not for the faint of heart! Remember, even under our agreement, YOU are your own boss....from design to daily operations, it's YOUR business, not ours, even if you do represent the Liquid Planet brand and products. Thus, to qualify as a successful Franchisee, you do need to have enough business experience and knowledge to operate on your own while we help you behind the scenes with branding, and operational support.
Do I Qualify as a Franchisee?Qualifying as a Franchisee and having enough experience and passion for this business is important since we don't just let anyone open their own Liquid Planet, regardless of how much funding you might have. We'd much rather have 100 unique high volume and profitable Liquid Planet locations to support than 1000 cookie-cutter locations that all don't succeed due to a lack of qualified and passionate owner/operators. Hence, there are a few general requirements you must have to be considered. If you can answer "Yes" to the statements below, then you might be an excellent candidate!
Overall the process can be rather simple. The following is a very general guideline to the typical process for a Franchisee. There may be more steps in the process depending on the number of locations and the amount of assistance required.
Liquid Planets come in a variety of shapes and sizes, each of which are custom built for its specific clientele and surroundings. In general, we offer three concepts:
Converting your current business to the Liquid Planet brand is a great idea and is very easy to do! Maybe you'd like to add all-natural and organic options to your menu? Or perhaps your sales are down knowing your customers don't connect with your current brand - or lack therof? Whatever the reason, you have two easy choices:
