We recommend beginners attend the "Introduction to Picture Framing" class before attempting this more advanced course.
Courses are conducted over 3 days and will cover:
Our courses teach you how to layout, measure and cut your own mats; how to select, and join your picture frames; then how to finish off the picture ready to hang on your wall.
You will learn what are the best tools available and how to use them. We will show you how to do all your own framing with tools and equipment you CAN afford. Tools that are safe, easy-to-use in the comfort of your own home. Then you can buy your own tools and do-it-yourself.
SALES TECHNIQUES -
We will offer in-depth and comprehensive sales techniques you can use. Dealing with customers does not have to be a scary thing, they’re only human.
The course will include the easiest and proven techniques to close a sale, offer sales support, gain extra framing projects, retain existing business and a loyal customer base that is not afraid to recommend you to friends and family.
PRICING JOBS -
You will be taught how to price your jobs effectively and profitably, without making your prices unreasonable to your customers.
We will issue you with a pricing schedule, which will allow you to look professional, and helps when quoting on work, making sure your customers feel they can have confidence in your quote.
MARKETING YOUR BUSINESS -
We will teach you how to most effectively market your business. Marketing your business locally does not need to cost the earth, word of mouth is a great way to start. We will teach you different techniques of keeping in touch with your customers, ensuring customer loyalty.
We will also teach you how to go about advertising in the local press should you wish to do that, and how to source other cheap ways of getting your name out there.
BUILDING A PROFITABLE BUSINESS -
We will provide you with an action plan showing you step by step what you can do to make your business as profitable as possible. We will show you how to start of and how to maintain your business.
