Annual Conference
Our Annual Conference is our flagship annual celebration of the entire TaxAssist network, and as a franchisee you and your family are fully invited!
The annual event provides an opportunity for us to reveal our plans for the coming year, announce new initiatives and showcase technical updates. During an action-packed day, franchisees and staff are able to browse exhibitor stands and meet service providers and staff from the Support Centre, as well as network with each other.
We also put on a number of workshops on topics to support franchisees’ profitability, including marketing, business development, practice management, software and technology, followed by roundtable discussions and best practice sharing. The evening is comprised of a gala dinner with entertainment provided and live music.
Summer meetings
Every year we also hold a summer meeting. These one-day events provide you with the opportunity to discuss with nearby franchisees different aspects of running and growing your new business. We also cover latest updates, specific technical, commercial and business development updates, which are sometimes supported by additional service providers. We encourage collaboration and sharing of information and best practice at these sessions.
Training classes
When you commence your Initial Training Course, you will also be joined by other new franchisees. We often find that these groups will stay close after the training and will act as a support bubble. As you will be on the same journey, you will be able to benefit with working with and talking to franchisees in a similar position.
Business development visits
All franchisees will benefit from a visit from the Support Team with the main focus on building your business, profitability, and ultimately helping you achieve your ambitions.
Communications
All franchisees and their staff benefit from receiving our annual printed publication Network News, which includes information on our new joiners to the network, latest news about shop openings and from around the network, key updates and new initiatives being driven by our business development, operations, technical, technology and software teams. A Weekly Email communication is also sent to all franchisees every Friday with the latest updates from the Support Centre team.
