Why You Want to Hire Great Employees for Your Franchise
Okay, this seems obvious. Of course we all want to hire great employees for our franchise. Who wants to hire average or sub-par employees? Your employees are the face of your company. They have the power to delight your customers and turn them into lifelong evangelists for your business or give customers such a bad experience that they take to social media and review sites and seriously harm your reputation. Additionally, bad employees are expensive! According to Monster.com, the cost of losing a frontline employee ranges from 30% to 150% of that person’s annual earnings.
