Since it set its sights on the international arena, Tutor Doctor has grown from strength to strength, expanding into South Africa, Australia, South America and the UK. Now the Tutor Doctor franchise stands at the brink of a wonderful milestone; its 450th franchise.
Tutor Doctor is a world-renowned tutoring business which provides one-on-one tutoring for students in their homes. The reasons for its recent success are four-fold. Firstly, the tutoring market is growing exponentially as competition increases for spots in good schools as well as in the job market.
The second reason for its phenomenal expansion is Tutor Doctor’s home-based franchise model. It just works! Tutor Doctor is the number one one-on-one tutoring business in the world.
They are one of the fastest-growing franchise opportunities because their business model allows franchise owners to work from home, which keeps initial investment and operating costs low.
They won the Child's Magazine's Parents Choice Award in 2010, 2011 and 2013, the Top 50 Franchises for Minorities, National Minority Franchising Initiative award and Top 50 Franchises for Veterans award by USA Today.
The third reason that a Tutor Doctor franchise makes for a profitable tutoring business is thanks to their exceptional support system. Tutor Doctor believes you should be in business for yourself, but not by yourself. They understand that they only succeed when you do. That means that they have a rigorous franchisee selection procedure to ensure that an education franchise is right for prospective buyers.
They then provide all the training tutoring franchise owners would need to succeed, marketing and materials, big brand recognition, better prices from suppliers and continued support with every step on your journey to owning a profitable tutoring business.
The fourth, and arguably most important, way in which the Tutor Doctor franchise distinguishes itself are a sincere commitment to its values. Tutor Doctor franchise owners must have a desire to help the families in their neighbourhood and engage in community-building. Supporting local events, and participating in community activities is key. Owners and tutors must have a genuine desire to help students to achieve their incredible potential. This isn’t just the business of making money, this is also the business of changing lives.
"As a team, we are truly affecting the lives of families and children," says Frank Milner, Tutor Doctor CEO. "By consistently communicating this message, along with real-life stories of students and families we are helping every day around the world, this passion transmits throughout the system and infuses itself into the company culture."
