Geoff Mangum's
PuttingZone Academy Franchises offer the best putting instruction in the
history of golf and participation in a world-wide community of putting
teachers and learners whose interactions keep these Academies perpetually
at the forefront of golf putting instruction. If you're a golf pro, you
certainly know that standard golf instruction is focused 99% on the full
swing, even though golf is 40%+ putting and the putter is used nearly
three times as often as every other club during every round of golf. PuttingZone

school's existing repertoire of full-swing instruction. And ... you get marketed
as a putting guru!

TRAINING
PuttingZone Academy franchise training consists
of a week of instruction in theory and practical techniques by Geoff
Mangum, along with various written materials. Special sessions include
teaching methods and franchise operations procedures and best practices.
PuttingZone Academy training fully equips the owner to market and operate
the Academy to offer the highest available putting instruction as an
add-on complement to an existing golf school. The training teaches the
owner how to assess a student's existing skills, to ascertain the student's
goals and potential, to offer the best putting instruction for fundamental
skills and psychological issues in the world, and to benchmark and chart
student progress. The program includes teaching manuals, student questionnaires
and profiles, testing protocols, and benchmarking and record-keeping
protocols. The program also includes surveys of training aids and teaching
techniques and a session on proper methods for putter fitting and selection.
Training takes place periodically at centralized regional venues and
is also available at your venue by prior arrangement. Initial training
and all supplied materials are included in the pricing of the franchise.
Franchisee staff may be included in training for nominal fees.
DETAILS
The PZ Academy franchises are available
in a number of different pricing structures. Payment plans are available,
including regularly scheduled monthly or annual payments. All franchises
have an initial term of three years.
One plan is for a one-time $6,500.00 USD
(£3,700 or €5,400) base fee plus 5% royalties of putting instructional
and services revenue at the school payable quarterly. The base fee includes
week-long training, manuals, an initial stock of signage and business
supplies, grand-opening promotional event, and on-going marketing and
operational support and updating.
One plan is for payment of one-third, $2,200.00
(£1,265 or Euros €1,850) for the first year plus 10% royalties
payable monthly, with two additional annual payments of the same amount.
Another option is available
for one-half, $3,250.00 (£1,865 or Euros €2,725)
as a one-time base fee plus 15% royalties payable montly,
with two further annual payments of $1,625 or equivalent.
On-going franchise business supplies will be available
at cost plus shipping and handling. Separate fees apply
for extra training.
Provision of PuttingZone merchandise to
franchisees will be at wholesale pricing and shipping and handling calibrated
to provide the franchisee a greater mark-up than commonly available
from standard equipment, apparel, and accessories vendors.
Renewal of the franchise term at the end
of the initial term entails a review of the success of the Franchise
and an adjustment of fees and royalties up or down to more closely reflect
actual market conditions. The Franchise may be transferred to a new
location, subject to territory availability and prior approval. Other
terms and conditions apply.
In addition, if you sponsor a clinic for
your golfers taught by Geoff Mangum, a portion of net proceeds can be
immediately credited to your Franchise -- Geoff teaches a clinic at
your course and earns a chunk of your Franchise base fee for you, and
you can get the PuttingZone Academy at greatly reduced expense to you! Now that's win-win!
Join this growing community
of serious teachers today! Let's make 2010 one heckuva
memorable year together.
