Induction Made Easy

Discover a whole new hassle-free world of inducting your new people; an affordable, game-changing platform that makes life easier for both franchisors and franchisees. It’s an all-new onboarding app designed to deliver a two-pronged benefit for users. 

“Not only can franchisors use it to streamline the onboarding process by replacing any paper-based processes for new franchisees but, in turn, franchisees can also utilise the platform to onboard any of their new employees,” explains Sussan Ockwell, director of app creators The Induction Company.

“It also means franchisors can oversee their entire network – every person who represents their brand. Franchisees can establish base content and activities for all new employees representing their brand, so everybody is being inducted and trained to the same exacting standard.”

Users of The Induction App are surprised by how simple and easy it is to operate. It starts with a simple link - no downloading required. 

“It takes you right from initial contract, through paperwork, induction and learning, as well as engagement and reporting,” says Sussan.

Nothing about the app is overwhelming and the platform is virtually holding people’s hands as they learn the ropes, she explains. “The app walks franchisees through each phase of induction, covering various topics within each stage. The franchisor can see what’s happening as the franchisee progresses, allowing for engagement check-ins to determine where any help may be required.”

Making life easier

Hospitality, retail, drivers, home services and other franchises with people ‘out there doing the work’, will benefit from The Induction App, due to its mobile phone-friendly platform. It combines checklists, task lists, interactive content and rich media, such as videos.

The app allows you type your name and details into a digital form once, then populate multiple official forms, which require the same details, ready for e-signing.

It’s all about streamlining processes, eliminating paperwork and making induction easier for everyone, says Sussan, who was pleased by the app’s reception at the recent National Franchise Conference.

Getting started with The Induction App involves a 90-minute setup meeting with the franchisor. In this, structure, flow and pathways are discussed, alongside any branding requirements. Sussan says there are options for franchisors to set the app up themselves or use her team, depending on their confidence and resource. Either way, setting up franchisees with the app can be managed by the franchisor, easily.
