The File Depot - Franchise

 
All businesses must keep records. Most have more than they can store in their office and often end up very poorly managed in a mini-storage. You provide storage, management, shredding, and pick-up and delivery services to help them manage this problem. A nearly recession proof business, The File Depot provides a recurring revenue stream that is generated each and every month. In addition, the revenue typically grows 10-15% yearly from existing clients. Utilizing your business, medical, legal, and government contacts, signing up new clients will increase the growth rate even more.
 
We supply all of the software systems, bar-coding equipment, operations manuals, forms, contracts, etc. Then we train you on sales and operations to get you started quickly and efficiently. Ongoing support and training are provided by our staff which includes a Certified Records Manager who has over 19 years experience in starting up, owning and operating multiple records storage companies.
 
If you have existing warehouse space that is being underutilized, you will have a head start. If not, we will help you locate space and negotiate a lease/purchase.  Operations training is held at one of our existing The File Depot facilities where you get hands on experience as well as learning which tools and equipment are the most effective and efficient. Sales training occurs in your territory where we go with you on your first appointments to help you sign up new clients quickly.
 
We have put together an extraordinary 'turn-key' business opportunity that provides an important cost-effective service to virtually every type and size business. In many cases, the decision to move files to one of our facilities is easy because our full service costs are typically the same or less than the prospective clients' current storage costs alone.
 
The File Depot is staged to become one of the fastest growing file management companies. We provide "licenses" for an exclusive territory to carefully selected individuals who want to operate their own business and enjoy a growing, recurring revenue stream. If you think you would like to join us, please request additional information.
 
Master licenses are also available to investors and business brokers who would like to help individual licensees succeed and benefit from their success.
 
"Becoming a profitable File Depot franchisee was easy and quick. It took only a matter of weeks to open for business and to secure our first customers! Representatives of The File Depot parent company were with us every step of the way -- from helping us find a warehouse location, materials-handling equipment, and promotional materials, to helping us land our first major customer. We have had revenue growth every quarter since acquiring our franchise, and our reputation for providing excellent customer service under The File Depot brand has helped us grow our customer base. Becoming a File Depot franchisee was the best decision my partners and I ever made!"Randall P. Settoon
"I found The File Depot easy to get started and did not require a large investment of time and money. This has been an easy service to manage and requires a minimal amount of time to operate. Once your customers are familiar with the services, the business grows on its own as they continue to create more records for storage."Scott Kimbrell Jr.
"I opened the doors of my File Depot location on my 22nd birthday. A recent college graduate in a degree program other than business, I had absolutely no business experience, along with a limited credit history and little money to spend, but The File Depot just seemed like the right fit, so I took a chance and dove in head first. The entire File Depot team just made me feel right at home; they helped me get everything started, provided me with all the necessary knowledge, and made sure I was well equipped and trained to offer these types of services. Within a few months, I was making more money than I expected, and the growth has been exponential ever since. At 22 years old, I am blessed to enjoy the kind of financial freedom that some people work their entire lives for and never achieve. I owe it all to A.G., Rob, and the rest of the The File Depot team for encouraging me to attain the kind of success that this business model guarantees."Lonnie Granier

After retiring from the printing business PostalAnnex founder Jack Lentz began working out of his home as a business consultant. He soon realized the need for mailing faxing copying shipping and other services to belong under one roof. As a result he created the first PostalAnnex store business franchise located next door to a post office in the University City neighborhood of San Diego CA. Our franchises serve a growing customer base of small and home-based businesses that lacks the resources our stores offer. Today's hectic lifestyle requires a one-stop service center for businesses that don't have an administrative assistant to take care of those daily errands.
