The Architecture Firm Franchise

The Pride Road Franchise grew out of Founder Lisa Raynes’ refusal to accept that there was only one way for a woman to have an architecture career and a family life. She built her practice in the domestic sector, and then invested to turn her business into one that other ambitious architects wanting work/life balance can buy into.

She’s had a seat on the RIBA Council (2015-18), been Chair of Women in Property NW and founded Manchester Curious, an urban architecture outreach festival. A key focus of the Pride Road Franchise business in a box is the fully-automated customer relation management system, this system helps lead a flow of new clients to our franchisees.

This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, The Architecture Firm Franchise with Lisa Raynes.

Learn more about Lisa at Pride Road, check out the podcast, and connect with her on LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram.

    Thank you, Lisa. You have truly inspired me.

    I have a question. How do you ensure that your franchisees actually pay the 10% and not less?
    Are they onboarded to the Zoho accounting services, and everyone bills their client from the same account?

    I’m trying to understand how you manage the franchise business financially.

    Love from Nigeria.
