Two Blonds & a Brunette Gift Co.
first brought sophistication, spunk, and style to the gift-giving world in 2002, elevating the once-tired gift basket into a veritable work of art. Now with locations across North America, we are looking for other dynamic individuals to join our fun & fabulous family. Start small in your home, build a client base, and grow from there. There's a reason celebrity agents call on us. Because our mandate is simple: No wrapped sausage or processed cheese please! We want Vargas Pin-up Girl Magnets and Bali Lime Papaya Body Butter, thank you very much!

Home-based. Flexible Hours. Full-time or part-time. Female and 'Mom' Friendly.

TRAINING

We want to keep your start-up expenses as minimal as possible. Thus, even your airfare and hotel for training will be paid for and included with your franchise fee. Training will consist of 3 days at Head Office in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, or in another designated city. Because we fully believe in supporting our location owners from the ground up, sharing our knowledge, and getting to know each individual and his/her location's needs on a close level, you will train with one or both of the founders and co-CEOs of the company, Laura McDonald and Seri Blatt. You will learn the art of tasteful personal and corporate gifting, as well as benefit from sales training, press and media awareness, and detailed set-up instruction, allowing you to grow your business from day one. You will also benefit from the camaraderie of training with other new location owners, and the quality brainstorming that results.

QUALIFICATIONS

We want to help others feel empowered and proud, to love what they do, and to be able to successfully balance all aspects of their lives. Whether you're a sophisticated woman with an eye for fabulous packaging and design (you may already even be employed in the gift industry), a self-starter who finds the sales world to be the ultimate challenge, or an entrepreneurial yummy mummy or daddy wishing to balance career and parenthood, we invite you to join our 2B&B family. We welcome women and men of all walks of life. Let us assist you with your career planning and help you build a 2B&B business model that will best fit your needs.

FINANCIAL COMMENTS

Our franchise fees - ranging from $15,000 to $35,000 per territory - include nearly everything you need to get started: $5000 retail value of initial inventory to resell and sustain your business as you build a client base; paid airfare and hotel for training; promotional material; contact page on our corporate website; and the use of our innovative design materials, brand, and media recognition. Little additional capital expenditure needed when starting in one's home. Payment plans in some cases only, with franchise fees in excess of $30K.

HISTORY

What started as a fun little company driven by creativity and style soon morphed into something beyond its original goal. Yes, we forever changed the gift basket landscape, but we also realized there was a market of talented, dynamic, driven individuals waiting for the right business to call their own. They sought us out. It seemed foolish not to share our success with others and create a network of strong, valued business owners. That’s exactly what we did.

INTERNATIONAL DESCRIPTION

We are currently offering franchises in Canada and the U.S., though will consider franchise requests in other countries.
