The holiday season is a time of gift-giving, and that includes rewarding yourself. During this time, it’s easy to find material wants for yourself; just a scroll through your feed can rope you into another one of your countless purchases. But how about acquiring a gift of a lifetime that can increase your sense of fulfillment for years to come? This is your sign to give yourself the gift of opportunity.
It’s not a neat one-and-done purchase, but a commitment to answering the call of your potential or finding something new in yourself that you never thought you could do. It’s finding the courage to say “I can, and I will,” and walking through the doors that are opened by that sentence. One avenue to unwrap the gift of opportunity is kickstarting your own business.
Having ownership over your livelihood and getting the chance to impact your community positively is a gift that can benefit everyone around you, and franchises like Kumon help you build an enterprise that is already built on a world-renowned legacy. A tried-and-tested franchise model Kumon has operated franchises in the Philippines since 1996. Over 300 Kumon centers are operating in the country and have already integrated into local neighborhoods, which is a testament to its continuous growth.
One ingredient in Kumon’s success story is its proactive support for instructor-franchisees. Aspiring applicants can join virtual franchise orientations, and successful candidates can access free training programs and ongoing marketing support to herald their franchise to greater heights. Before you can unwrap the potential of young students, you get to unlock your own potential in business and education.
A gift that keeps on giving Kumon isn’t just a business for business’ sake – it’s an opportunity to enrich the minds of young students and equip them with critical skills. Just look back at the reputation that Kumon has built. “Nag Kumon ka ba?” (“Did you study in Kumon?”) is a commonly asked question for Filipino kids who showed academic prowess.
It has become a source of pride for students and their parents, and for good reason. Kumon students are trained through an individualized approach, set at an optimal pace that learners can set for themselves. It not only develops their academic skills, but it also instills a self-starter attitude, an appetite for mastery, and skills in time management.
Instructor-franchisees can, in turn, get a sense of fulfillment in watching their students’ development. Building rapport with students, parents, and fellow instructors to create a conducive learning environment becomes an enriching experience as you grow along with your students. For some, taking the leap to start a business may seem daunting, but opportunity only presents itself when you open your mind to new possibilities.
Take the first step by letting go of your perspective that it’s a challenge, when it’s actually a gift. Kumon is actively looking for new franchisee-instructors nationwide. The process is simple and designed to properly equip you with the right tools before even opening your Kumon Center: Register and attend a virtual franchise orientation.
Set a consultation meeting with a franchise recruitment manager. Pass the test and online training. Have your location approved.
