NeedaNerd is a one of many great businesses I’ve met over the last year. They are rapidly expanding and might present an interesting opportunity for someone to get into an exciting, people focussed, business. They’ve asked me to mention they are looking for Franchisees which I’m more than happy to do.
The pitch …
- Need a Nerd is a booming mobile technology support business – franchisees run teams of nerds that visit houses and SMEs and fix all manner of tech problems and sell product – anything from a home theatre systems to a small office LAN
- It was started in Hawkes Bay by Adam Dunkerley in 2004, and has now expanded to Tauranga, Taupo, Palmerston North and Rotorua
- They are looking for franchisees in 55 regions all over New Zeland
- You don’t have to be super techie to be a franchisee – just a manager and motivator of nerds
- The central franchise support system is probably the most sophisticated in New Zealand – all jobs are managed from a centralised 0800 number, dispatched centrally, invoiced by the nerds on the sport. The franchisee needn’t deal with any paperwork.
- People who want to know more can call Chief Nerd Adam Dunkerley on 021 493 390 or adunkerley@needanerd.co.nz or visit the website for more info Franchise Opportunities
