About FASTFRAME
FASTFRAME is the leader in the industry. In an estimated 6
billion dollar marketplace, with high retail margins, the FASTFRAME
Operating System is simple to administer, requires minimal staffing,
affords sociable business hours, AND requires a low level of initial
investment.
The FASTFRAME Corporation is organized into two major groups –
Franchise Development and Franchise Services. We recognized long ago
that although growth and development are important, providing quality
service to our existing Franchisees is the key to our success.
Our Franchisees are independent owners, but we think of them
as partners, and we'd like to think our Franchisees see each other as
partners too. We support them with training programs, vendor relations,
equipment, and assistance in remodeling, relocation and expanding. We
also support their local and regional advertising with between 10- and
20-million advertising impressions a year. With our extensive
experience in the unique challenges of franchise operations, when they
face tough questions, they know they can call us for expert advice. I
like to think of it as being in business for yourself, but not by
yourself. These are just some of the unique benefits of being a
FASTFRAME franchisee.
Our Mission
To maintain our leadership in the custom picture framing industry by
recruiting business partners who are both qualified and passionate
about our industry. We strive to provide each franchisee with an all
inclusive and uncomplicated process whereby they can easily become a
part of this very enjoyable business.
