| Mellow Mushroom Pizza | Papa Romano's | |
| Training | Your ownership group and senior management staff will train for three weeks at our Shroom University training facility in Douglasville, Georgia prior to opening. When your store opens our training staff will assist you for a week prior to opening, and for two weeks after the opening. Shroom University offers a comprehensive program designed to teach you about the Front of House, Back of House, and Administrative aspects of running a Mellow Mushroom. You and your managers will learn how to make food, place orders, hire and retain personnel & maintain your POS system and mine the data it collects. A special emphasis is given to teaching you proven methods of supervising your store to decrease food and labor costs and increase cash flow. Quality control systems are also shared with you at Shroom University, and you will be provided with several financial and cost management spreadsheets. | We provide you with comprehensive training. If you are purchasing a new franchise, there is no additional charge for training. There may be a fee for training if you are purchasing an existing Papa Romano's unit. Training will take place at one of our designated Metro Detroit training stores. Once your store is opened we will provide you with an onsite training instructor to help you get off to a great start. |
| Support | Members of our operations team will visit your store(s) to ensure that our standards and practices are being upheld. These visits are also opportunities for us to continue to train your staff and help train any new employees. Our operations team will also help you implement new initiatives that are developed in conjunction with the marketing department. Our marketing team will advise you on coordinating local promotions and create collection-wide campaigns in which your store can participate. The marketing team will also provide you with designs for business cards, banners, stickers, magnets, and spec ads for use in your local market. | |
| Marketing | We provide you with ongoing support from the day of your grand opening and beyond. We strive to work with our franchisees to develop programs that will assist in their success. All of our marketing and advertising programs (television, radio, and direct mail) support our continued commitment to quality. | |
