Ashtons Franchise Consulting - Norwich

Our experience with Ashtons has been fantastic so far. We fist met Ashtons at the National Franchise conference, and since then the service they have provided us has been really professional and it's been great to work with them.

A special thankyou to Charlie Dickson who has worked with our business, CPS Football Academy, and has done amazing work with us. I'm very excited to see our franchise journey, thanks to the service Ashtons has provided.

I have worked with Ashtons Franchise Consulting since December 2022 when I instructed them to help with the franchising my business. I spent a lot of time speaking with different consultants, some independent and others part of larger organisations and decided to use Ashtons. I felt that I had the best connection with them and they made the help they would offer very clear from the beginning giving me great peace of mind.
They were not the cheapest but have proven to be worth every penny.
I had and continue to have, great support from Phil who has been with me since day one of my franchising journey, even if I just want to rant. He is very knowledgeable and if he doesn't know the answer to something, will point me in the right direction. He has assisted with every aspect of preparing my business for franchising where I feel comfortable to fly solo.
I don't think I would be seeing the levels of success I have been with Ashtons input and support so for that, I am incredibly grateful.

Ashtons have been an incredible resource for us as we embarked on franchising the Trail Runners brand. Their depth of knowledge, and appropriation to our unique circumstances, is something we would never have been able to do on our own. It's true that you don't know what you don't know!
Not only that, but their consultants are personable, relatable and brilliant to work with. We have been working with Rob Hall, and couldn't recommend him enough!
Thanks to the team at Ashton for everything they have done with us so far.

We are delighted to share our experience working with Ashtons Franchise, particularly with Charlie, who has been instrumental in developing our franchise model. Already established with 18 stores, we received a comprehensive set of documents that kickstarted our franchise journey and provided a robust structure for further expansion.

Charlie's knowledge and expertise, combined with his openness, responsiveness, and deep industry knowledge in the food sector, have been invaluable. His support has been amazing, and we highly recommend Ashtons Franchise to anyone looking to grow their business.

We continue to collaborate with Ashtons and their legal team as we embark on our international expansion, confident in the strong foundation they've helped us build.

Since my initial meeting with Phil and the team, my experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Rob, my franchise consultant, has been outstanding, and I couldn’t be happier with the support, advice, and honest customer service I've received. They’ve expertly balanced showing respect for both me, my business, and my lack of experience in franchising, while providing clear, professional guidance. Rob has gone above and beyond, consistently making me feel like they genuinely care about my business and its success. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

The minefield of setting up our new venture in franchising was soon disarmed when we appointed Charlie Dickson @ Ashtons Franchise Consulting to guide and support us through the process and prepare the documentation. We also had the expertise of Ashtons Legal, namely Damian Humphrey to guide us through the legalities. Charlie’s knowledge & experience in franchising & franchise consultancy, plus Damian’s legal knowledge and due diligence came to the forefront with their approach and advice in company structure, the franchise model, processes, business activities and operations. Response and turnaround times have been excellent in providing us with a comprehensive suite of information for the business and our Franchisees, giving us the ability and confidence to move the business forward at pace with our franchise programme.

A great experience to really develop my business and was an absolute pleasure to work with Paul. Ashtons were a pleasure to work with and I feel very confident going forward that I will be able to grow my business substantially. Paul really took his time to understand my business and gave me really detailed meetings so that I could plan and prepare for each stage of the franchise development plan. I hope to continue to work with Ashtons in the foreseeable future as we meet company targets.

I used Ashtons Franchise Consulting to help with setting up the Trulawn Franchise proposition. I found the whole team personable, pro-active and above all extremely knowledgeable.

My account manager was Richard Langrick who helped us develop our value proposition and bring this to market. Richard was a font of knowledge as he has vast experience in the franchise sector. John Chambers from the legal team was also very supportive and helpful. I would recommend Ashtons to any business owner looking to franchise their business.
