Now's the time to follow your dream of opening your own bookstore. We're looking for motivated people to join our franchise community and share our growing success in the dynamic book industry. Franchise opportunities are now available nationally, with new sites opening up all the time.
There are 5 simple steps to becoming a Dymocks Franchise Owner:
1. TALK TO US
Please call us or complete the online enquiry form and we will contact you. If you are deemed a suitable candidate, we'll organise a meeting to discuss the Dymocks business model in more detail.
2. DOCUMENTATION
Once a site is identified we'll provide Prior Disclosure and franchise documentation.
3. INSPECTION
We'll arrange a site inspection and a meeting with the Lessor. You can spend a few days ‘on the job'.
4. INDEPENDENT ADVICE
It is your responsibility to obtain independent financial and legal advice where you review the franchise proposal, the Franchise Agreement and the site at which you propose to open a Dymocks bookstore.
5. FINAL APPROVAL
After signing the Franchise Agreement and successfully completing the initial training, you'll be required to attend a final approval interview with a member of the Dymocks Board. Most of the process doesn't involve any direct cost other than your time and any travel you make to visit stores or receive training. Once you get to step 5 where documents are generated it's necessary to receive a deposit to cover administrative and legal documentation.
Now is an exciting time to be in bookselling. Congratulations on taking the first step on your journey. We look forward to welcoming you to the Dymocks team.
It offers ready-made brand loyalty and reputation, it enables you to benefit from large scale advertising, which no small business could individually afford. It gives you a set of operating systems, staff training and guidance. And of course, it gives you the buying power of a large organisation.
If you are the right person for our business, you will already have a lot in common with our Franchise Owners.
These qualities include passion and the ability to work in a fast paced environment where customer engagement is crucial. You will have an interest in great books, the ability to offer expert advice and a desire to enhance the reading enjoyment of the community.
