Jump to the bottom to see our proposition for franchise brand owners.

Building a suite of best of breed service providers to make your franchise partners’ lives easier is critical to helping them make a success under your brand. So what can be done to make things easier when it comes to background music for franchise businesses?

Packaging up your franchise package requires best of breed products and service providers.

Getting a package together for your franchises can be challenging when you want to make sure your brand is backed up by best of breed service providers.

We understand attracting business entrepreneurs and growing your franchise network has its own challenges over simply growing it yourself.

Whilst businesses will always be keen to get themselves on your recommended list, how easy is it for entrepreneurs to make the right choice between the offers available?

Background music for franchise businesses; how hard can it be?

Traditional means for licensing meant paying the national performing rights societies a fee for the use of any music that is assigned to them for royalty collection.

Going with a royalty free service provider for background music means your franchise owners only have one (smaller) bill to pay rather than managing multiple bills over all their locations.

Reducing the capital commitments involved with hardware and the ongoing service costs involved with expensive inefficient sound equipment means your franchise partners reduce their ongoing overheads.

We pay the artists that own the music in our music library directly.

Additionally, service providers can come with some hefty up-front costs for equipment in addition to the sound amplifier and speakers you will need to have installed by a local IT services installer.

The Melody Pods service has a very light touch when it comes to hardware & we are simple to install.

We can run in the background of your desktop computer in your reception, run on budget priced tablets and mini PCs which have low power consumption, lower cost of purchase and maintenance.

Franchise music solutionsThe Melody Pods’ proposition for franchise brand owners

Our proposition to you, the franchise business has many facets to start discussions:

Musical Blueprint: we will work with you to define the music style that matches your brand. We will look at your customer definition, the sales cycle and your business objectives.

We can create music playlists for different parts of your business as well as matching music to each of your business objectives.

Your Unique Franchise Package:  we will create a solution that only your franchise owners can subscribe to with system options and music choices already in place so they are ready to go as soon as they connect.

Startup support and training: we offer online training using documentation, videos, calls and online web conferencing. We can be available at any time of the day for your busy franchise owners, so if they need to have a run through of the service at (for example) 7am in the morning, we will happily arrange. We will work with your teams over weekends to ensure Melody Pods is ready for your launch on Monday morning if you wish. All inclusive in the subscription.

Great service: of course, high quality support is worthless without a great service to match. Our service is highly available and flexible. We are always feeding back our customer’s ideas and needs into the music collections as well as the service and technology.

    Can I play YouTube music in my business?

    The vibe should follow them out the door

    The goal isn’t just a nice time inside. It’s the after-feeling. If someone leaves your café lighter, calmer, more upbeat, they associate you with that emotion. That’s powerful. Because when they’re deciding where to go next time, they don’t choose based on logic — they choose based on memory. Music is how you shape that…
