WebRepo Inc. (Tokyo, CEO: Akio Kamiyama), operator of 'Franchise Web Report', a specialized information media for prospective franchise owners, will completely revamp its listing plans starting with contract renewals in June 2026. The most significant feature of this revision is that briefing application fees, which were previously pay-as-you-go, will be completely free across all plans. This creates an environment where franchise development representatives can fully utilize the briefing function without worrying about additional costs, greatly expanding opportunities to connect with prospective franchisees.
What is Franchise Web Report?
Franchise Web Report is a specialized information media that connects individuals and corporations considering joining a franchise with franchise headquarters seeking franchise owners. It features headquarters information across a wide range of industries and business formats, including food and beverage, retail, services, and nursing care, achieving effective reach to prospective franchisees with high intent. With an operational track record of over 25 years, it is utilized by many franchise development personnel as a media platform that supports headquarters' recruitment activities.
Background and Purpose of the Plan Revision
In recent years, the environment surrounding the franchise industry has been changing rapidly. Due to soaring digital advertising costs, fragmentation of user needs, and the diversification of prospective franchisees' information-gathering behaviors, franchise development headquarters of each company are required to have more sophisticated marketing strategies than ever before.
To address these challenges, our company has been promoting the continuous improvement of media quality and the strengthening of our content production system. This plan renewal simultaneously achieves further acceleration of such investments and a transition to a service system that is easier for listed companies to utilize.
Appeal of the Newly Updated Listing Plans
POINT 1 | Briefing recruitment function fees made free across all plans
The fees associated with briefing recruitment, which previously incurred in some plans, have been abolished. You can utilize the briefing function without worrying about additional costs, maximizing opportunities to connect with prospective franchisees.
POINT 2 | Listing available from the industry's lowest price of 80,000 yen per month
The pricing is designed to allow recruitment to start while keeping burdens low, even on a small budget. It is easy to introduce even in the early stages of franchise development, enabling recruitment activities focused on cost-effectiveness. You can choose the optimal plan from Light, Standard, and Special depending on the franchise expansion phase and target number of franchisees.
POINT 3 | Designed to easily meet high-probability franchise candidates
Document request recommendations are not automatic check-box types; they are designed so that prospects select where to request materials based on their own intention. Because the design encourages prospects to act upon thinking, "I want to know about this brand," inquiries are more likely to reach the voluntarily chosen headquarters, leading to the acquisition of highly serious leads.
