FASTSIGNS® Recruiting Franchise Candidates At National Business Media Show In Columbus Sept. 12-14

CARROLLTON, Texas, Sept. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- FASTSIGNS International, Inc., franchisor of FASTSIGNS^®, the leading sign, graphics and visual communications franchise, announced today that it will be attending and sponsoring the National Business Media Show at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 12-14, 2019.

As part of its aggressive growth throughout the East Coast and nationwide, the brand is recruiting existing business owners interested in adding a FASTSIGNS to their existing business or fully converting their store to a FASTSIGNS franchise. Currently, franchise opportunities exist throughout Ohio in markets like Cleveland, Cincinnati, Newark, Springfield, Mansfield and Muncie, as well as Indianapolis, IN.

"FASTSIGNS' co-brand and conversion programs are an opportunity for established entrepreneurs to expand their business with the help of an award-winning franchisor. FASTSIGNS franchisees benefit from not only our name recognition and strong reputation, but also from our constant research and new product development, and a business model that has proven to drive sales and reduce supply costs," said Mark Jameson, Executive Vice President of Franchise Support and Development.

FASTSIGNS' co-brand and conversion franchise offerings can be started with only $15,000 down on the initial franchise fee.

"I was looking for ways to bring my small business to the next level, and once I came across FASTSIGNS, I quickly learned that the return would be greatly worth the investment for both myself and my business as a whole," said Josette Brinkman, who recently converted her existing business, Signed By Josette, LLC to a FASTSIGNS center in Findlay, Ohio which is slated to open Oct. 1. "FASTSIGNS has phenomenal brand recognition, and every corporate team member or fellow franchisee I've met has been committed to ensuring I have all of the necessary information needed to successfully launch as the newest center for the brand in Ohio. I'm extremely excited to get started and look forward to the opportunity to offer more solutions than just signs for my local community with the help of FASTSIGNS."

FASTSIGNS is offering a special incentive for first responders, including paramedics, emergency medical technicians, police officers, sheriffs, and firefighters, which includes a 50 percent reduction on the franchise fee — a savings of $24,875.
