Why Traditional Franchise Models Are Failing Modern Women
Why Traditional Franchise Models Are Failing Modern Women
And How BabyBeats Is Rewriting the Rules
“Business should work for your life, not the other way around.”
For decades, franchising has been painted as the perfect middle ground: the independence of owning your own business, with the safety net of an established brand. But for many women, particularly mothers, that promise has started to crack under the pressure of outdated expectations and rigid systems.
Traditional franchise models often come with:
- Fixed daily working hours
- Commission cuts that reduce your income
- High-pressure sales targets
- Little regard for personal lifestyle or caregiving roles
For women juggling family life, career aspirations and the daily mental load that comes with these models, they simply don’t work. We believe they shouldn’t have to.
The Problem with the Old Way
Let’s face it: most franchise models weren’t built with modern women in mind.
Let’s face it: most franchise models weren’t built with modern women in mind.
They expect full time availability, often during school pick ups or dinner time.
- Strict targets that don’t account for your personal goals or energy
- Commission based fees that punish you for having a slow month
- They offer little flexibility, little personalisation and little soul
The BabyBeats Difference
At BabyBeats, we set out to change that... radically
We designed our franchise model around the real lives of the women who run them. Our network is built on empowerment and impact, not pressure.
Here’s how we do things differently:
No Commission, Ever
You keep 100% of what you earn. We charge a fixed, transparent monthly fee so you know exactly what’s going out, no hidden costs, no surprises and no targets based on someone else’s metrics.
You Set the Schedule
Work around your children’s school hours, term time, evenings, whatever suits your life. Your business should enhance your freedom, not restrict it.
A Multi-Layered Income Stream
From parent and baby classes to children’s workshops, adult sessions, sensory toy sales, party bookings, community projects and more, BabyBeats gives you more than one way to thrive.
Real, Human Support
We don’t leave you to figure it out alone. You get:
Ongoing 1:1 strategy calls
- Group training sessions
- A booking system and personalised webpage
- Social media resources and daily prompts
- A powerful, passionate community behind you
- The Future of Franchising is Feminine
Women don’t want to be boxed into outdated ideas of what work should
look like.
We want:
- Purpose
- Flexibility
- Autonomy
- The chance to do meaningful work that fits into our lives not the other way around
- BabyBeats isn’t just a business opportunity. It’s a movement
It’s about supporting mothers, children and families while building something of your own, something you're proud of
