June 4, 2007 - In a new report released today by Franchise Business Review, an overwhelming percentage of franchisees owning child service-related franchises are very satisfied with their business investment. Overall, 90% of franchise owners gave their franchise system a positive rating. The report also indicates that the majority of franchisees are meeting or exceeding their financial expectations.

“The child services franchise sector has been extremely popular and growing rapidly over the last few years,” says Eric Stites, Founder and President of Franchise Business Review. “It’s great to see that these franchise owners are generally very happy and making money. Many of these opportunities allow people to escape the daily grind of the corporate world and pursue a career they are passionate about.”

Franchise Business Review, a leading market research firm in the franchise industry, surveys thousands of franchisees each year to determine their level of satisfaction. Franchise concepts included in this report focused on fitness programs, education enrichment programs, tutoring services, and other child-related retail and service businesses. JumpBunch, Gymboree, LearningRx, The Little Gym, Oxford Learning Centers, and Young Rembrandts were a few of the franchise companies included in the study. 1,250 franchisees from over two dozen national franchise brands participated.

"Franchisee satisfaction is such a critical factor,” continued Stites. “Investing in a franchise offers many people the opportunity to be their own boss and lowers the risks associated with starting your own business. But unfortunately, there are a lot of average or below average opportunities out there. Our research helps identify the truly great franchise opportunities in the marketplace. We believe these companies offer a much better opportunity for success."

TSS Photography, a youth sports and school photography franchise based in Duluth, GA was included in the report research. They received very favorable satisfaction marks from the majority of their 200 franchise owners. “We are very pleased with the feedback we received from our franchisees in this survey”, said Joe Lindenmayer, President of TSS Photography. “Franchisee satisfaction is such an important part of our business. We can’t be successful as a company unless our franchisees are successful and we do everything we can to make that happen.”
