Is this a Franchise?
No, we offer a business assistance program -
similar to a mentoring relationship - not a
franchise. We provide specialized, industry
specific consultation, training and
information concerning the elective imaging
industry. We assist you with preparing to
open your business.
How is this different from a franchise?
Purchasing a franchise establishes a
relationship where someone else (the
franchisor) controls your business and
shares in your profits. They will take a
percentage of your gross sales (not your
profit), dictate your hours of business,
force you to participate in advertising that
may not be productive in your community and
control the prices that you may charge for
your services.
Name
Branding?
There are ultrasound business that will try
and convince you that purchasing their
business package and the right to use their
name is a great advantage. Not necessarily.
Most of the parents in your area will not
have heard of them. Expectant parents are
concerned with finding an ultrasound
facility in their community. The national
advertising helps every ultrasound studio in
each community, but parents are going to use
local resources (telephone book, local
magazine) and the Internet to find
facilities in their area.
What does the
AUS Business Assistance Program cost?
$15,000. Why are the other companies so
secretive about what it costs? That was one
of our frustrations when we were first
researching going into the elective
ultrasound business and were looking for
assistance. Why should you have to fill out
applications and prove your financial
strength before they will disclose the
investment required? There should be a
simple, straight-forward answer. We don't
want to waste your time - or ours.
What is included in the AUS Business
Assistance Program?
