Expanding to Multiple Locations – Replicating Successfully

October 5, 2019 David Staughton

How to Expand to Multiple Locations Successfully – Replicating with Systems Thinking

  • Want to grow your business in another location?
  • Want to expand your operations from one site to multiple sites?
  • Struggling running a second or third location business?

If you want to build a large sustainable multi-location business,  then you need SOLID foundations and key building blocks for replicating your success in the first location.

Replicating with Systems

Many business owners running a successful operation in a single location dream of opening more locations.

Many times owners will open a second or third location nearby and then struggle and close them because the operation is so reliant on the owner being there.

At this point of financial crisis they suddenly try to develop solid management teams and business systems. It would have been better to develop these systems and teams before expanding.  A great test is that your people and systems are so good that you can go away for a month and the business performs better than when you are there.

I always recommend that the business owner takes the lead in the new location, and expands to a bigger site not a smaller one.

You’ll need to build a great leadership “A team”and develop good Systems & Processes. You’ll also need to learn more about Finances.

Building Your Business Group and Expanding to Multiple Locations

These BOOKS are strongly recommend as essential reading for anyone wanting to grow their business or improve their group of similar businesses. They are ideal for anyone beginning to expand and replicate their business group.

Whether you have a franchise model, licensed business model or a co-operative, these books will really help.
