How a Top Franchise Wasted $300k on Training Before Getting it Right

Avoid Our Costly Mistakes and Save Yourself the Headache

Remember the early days of your franchise? The scrappy spirit, the long hours, the endless hustle to get things done? We certainly do. Back then, while working for a growing franchise, we witnessed firsthand the effect of rapid expansion and the need for effective training.

It was a classic startup scenario: limited resources, ambitious goals, and the overwhelming desire to get things off the ground as quickly as possible. Training? It was crucial, but with few options and tight deadlines, purchasing a traditional Learning Management System (LMS) was the only way. The result? We poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into a clunky, difficult-to-use LMS and spent countless hours creating content and managing it ourselves.

Looking back, it was a huge investment with mixed results. While the LMS technically got the job done, it was far from user-friendly or engaging. Employee frustration simmered, completion rates were low, and valuable time was wasted navigating the system’s complexities. In hindsight, the cost in both dollars and employee engagement was immense.

Now, let’s be clear, we weren’t naive. We understood the importance of training for our franchisee’s success. We just didn’t have access to the efficient, scalable, and cost-effective solutions available today. Our “LMS” was like a dinosaur in a world of sleek, high-performance learning platforms. The impact was undeniable. Not only did the training system drain valuable resources, but it also struggled to keep pace with the franchise’s growth.

Employees felt bogged down by outdated materials and a confusing learning experience. The potential for inconsistency and knowledge gaps were high. We spent years wrestling with a clunky LMS and wasted hundreds of hours creating content that could have been better delivered by then experts. More importantly, our employees struggled with an unintuitive system, potentially hindering their learning and growth.

What if There’s Another Way?

That was the question leadership was asking after so many missed deadlines and low learner engagement. That’s when our two Co-founders, Alex and Eric, were assigned to a team to solve this problem from the ground up. Emboldened by the smart decision of the franchisor to make a serious investment in its training and development, we set off to build the best LMS we could. One that streamlined training by offering engaging content and eliminated the need for a dedicated management team.

This wasn’t just one franchise’s story; it was a common narrative across countless businesses struggling with the limitations of traditional training methods. It was the frustration of these experiences that fueled our entrepreneurial spirit, leading us to create ZeeTeach – a solution designed to empower franchises with a modern, straight-forward approach to training.

This experience, while challenging, became the seed of ZeeTeach. We saw the need for a better, more efficient, and engaging way to train franchise teams. A solution that wouldn’t break the bank or demand hours of internal resources. A solution that empowered franchisors to focus on what mattered most – growing their franchise.

This is the ZeeTeach story. We’re not just offering another LMS; we’re offering a complete learning ecosystem tailored to the unique needs of franchises. We provide engaging content, expert support, and a user-friendly platform that takes the pain out of training. Most importantly, we allow franchisees to recapture those precious hours and resources, enabling them to focus on what truly drives success.

This isn’t just about technology; it’s about understanding the challenges franchises face and providing them with the tools they need to thrive. That’s the ZeeTeach promise.
