Huntington Franchise Advantages

Site Considerations
An integral part of Huntington's strategic plan is enhancing performance through optimal placement of the center. Centers are now being located in "destination" shopping areas where parents can drop their child at the Center and make the most of their time while the child receives instruction. Class A strip shopping centers with places to eat, exercise and grooming facilities, and access to other shopping options help build advertising awareness and add walk-in business.

Marketing and Advertising Support
Huntington's highly successful TV and radio campaigns are conducted through local advertising cooperative associations. Our powerful creative material is designed to promote the brand while driving traffic to the centers. In addition to television and radio, these materials include:

• National cable advertising
• Newspaper and Yellow Page ads ready for publication
• Press releases to distribute to local media
• Brochures
• Newsletters
• Direct mail
• School-visit materials

Operational Support
On-Site Consultation
A Franchise Field Representative will visit you in your Center several times during your first year of operation and, afterward, will conduct ongoing field visits. Initially, your representative will address last-minute questions and help you with the practical application of what you learned in training. Ongoing advice and consultation will help you increase your top-line revenues while maximizing your bottom-line profits. We work with you to develop a business plan for your center.
