Batteries+Bulbs
WHO ARE WE?
Batteries Plus Bulbs is the nation's largest and fastest-growing battery, light bulb, key fob and phone/tablet repair franchise, with a nationwide network of more than 725 stores.
Why US?
-
Why us? Easy. There are a number of factors that differentiate Batteries Plus Bulbs from other franchises, including exceptional proprietary systems, a well-known name that’s established and growing, the ability for franchisees to take advantage of multiple revenue streams, the needs-based products we sell, and the high barriers to entry for any competitors. We can delve a little further into a few of those here.
-
Think about the ways you and your family use batteries and bulbs at home. Then add cell phones (with screens that need repair, and batteries that fade) and key fobs, and you understand the idea of “multiple revenue streams”. Now add in the potential for acquiring commercial customers, national accounts and eCommerce and you’ll see that the opportunities for franchise income are vast and varied. Long story short: Multiple revenue streams drive sales and profits.
-
It’s all you. You’ll be the partner your community turns to when they have lighting, power or repair needs. You’ll be an invaluable resource because of your exceptional customer service, expertise and quality-tested products. That builds trust. And customers who come back again and again.
-
You and your team will continue to learn and engage via our world-class online university, empowerYOU. Reinforce the basics, learn about new procedures and products and even earn additional certification in designated areas of the business.
Support
-
Internal experts in their respective areas will go step-by-step to train you in retail management, commercial sales and device repair. You’ll get business coaching whenever you need it, and our online learning system keeps the training coming, even after your store is up and running.
-
Your store is just a part of the equation. You’ll also have the support of the people and products in our 150,000 sq. ft. warehouse facility. You’ll manage your costs by stocking the appropriate products, but also having every battery, bulb and fixture we carry available to you and your customers at a moment’s notice. With this system in place, you’re sure to have the right merchandise on the shelf at the right time.
-
At your service… The QA team ensures that our products maintain a consistent level of quality. They work closely with our vendors, auditing manufacturers and testing individual products to make sure they remain up to our standards.
-
It’s all done for you: Social media management (Check out all of the channels: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, You Tube), email, promotional materials, print ads and more. You’ll have a dedicated media buyer who will work one-on-one with you to assess your needs and place ads. Plus, we’ll take care of all of your public relations, including store opening hype, and other big announcements, too. So you can concentrate 100% on running your store.
-
Hardware, software, telecommunications, user support, networks & network security… Information Technology (IT) is responsible for all computer and computer-related matters in the company. You’ll benefit from the most robust proprietary systems to help with sales, inventory, communication, training and HR. And we’re continuously developing more.
