The Ultimate Children’s Party and Music Classes franchise!
Looking for a home-based business which offers a better work balance with high earnings potential while doing something that’s great fun and emotionally rewarding? You’ve found it in a Sillybilly franchise!
We’re leaders in the area of children’s entertainment, providing experienced entertainers for parties in the home and at corporate events nationwide.
We also provide music classes for parents and their children, encouraging a love of music, singing, rhythm, and instruments. We also offer a range of educational and fun music CDs, songbooks, and puppets for parents to share with their children.
With more than 300,000 children in Ireland between the ages of 4 to 8 there’s a constant demand for our services—not just for birthday parties, but for weddings, Holy Communions, and other family events.
We’ll show you how to find your clients and build a lasting, profitable, business, providing ongoing support to help ensure your success.
What we look for
A Sillybilly franchise is a full-time job for outgoing people who love working with children. Previous experience in children’s entertainment is not essential, nor do you need to be a magician!
We’ll train you in all aspects of the business and supply all the equipment you’ll need to get started.
However, a background in drama is desirable, and off course the ability to sing children’s songs. Plus lots of energy and enthusiasm—you’ll be dealing with youngsters, remember!
You’ll need a car or access to one. And, needless to say, before the process is completed you’ll need to pass a background check that we’re obliged by law to carry out.
In addition, these attributes are important:
• Good appearance and personal credibility
• Stable personal circumstances and support of family
• Strong desire to achieve financial success
• Good organisational and leadership skills
• Determination and resilience
What we offer you
• An exclusive territory, using the Sillybilly brand name and established business systems
• 2-week intensive training course for franchisees and staff (excludes travel and accommodation)
• Start-up pack including costumes, song books, CDs, magic props and Sillybilly puppets worth €5,000
• Portable Sound Equipment worth €1,000
• Operating and Training Manuals
• Templates for pamphlets, party invites, certificates and posters
• Advice on Business Plan preparation
• Ongoing support from Area Development Manager
Is franchising for you?
A franchise is a license to use a proven business system and its brand identity, its operating procedures, marketing procedures, advertising procedures, training programmes and its support framework. The franchisee’s own personal flair, their entrepreneurial skill, energy and commitment are added to reap the full benefit of a franchise. Franchises are a strong force in the resilient, dynamic, Small Business sector in Ireland.
Studies show that 95% of franchised businesses are successful, compared to only 55% of non-franchise business start ups.
The slogan in franchising is: You’re in business for yourself, but not by yourself. You operate independently but under the Franchisor’s umbrella. You are your own boss and can pay yourself what you’re worth.
Franchisors can only be successful if their franchisees are successful. This makes for a win-win relationship that is unique in the business world.
