Franchise Benefits

a proven successful business model
Azotel has built up extensive know-how on
what it takes to become a successful WISP.

Service and product basis. Hence we know what
works and not works from a commercial perspective.

- Franchisor
Services
As Franchisor, Azotel offers a complete operating
system and support/training. A comprehensive
Franchisee Operating Manual covers all aspects
of setup and operation of the business. The
purpose of this approach is to allow the franchisee
get on with the functions that they are best
positioned to perform i.e. high quality operation
of the franchised business, customer care
and satisfaction, building community relationships
and sharing of the experience within the Azotel
franchise network.
- Procurement
and Third party arrangements
Arrangements are in place with Motorola, where
depending on the location, Azotel can provide
bulk discounts to its franchisees on equipment
such as Customer Premises Equipment (radios).
Depending on country, Azotel can provide partners
for banking and backhaul connectivity.
- Advanced
In-line Support
As an Azotel franchisee, you will have access
to the full advanced technical support team
at Azotel. One of the unique attributes of
the Azotel WISPer operating system, is that
our engineers have the ability to troubleshoot
any issue that arises "live" and
"in-line". This means that all of
the support (apart from physical replacement)
can be done remotely over the internet, leading
to lower costs and greater availabilty.
- Minimum
Technical Knowledge required
With easy to use web-based systems
and Azotel’s backup support, minimal
technical skills and knowledge are required
to operate your WISP using Azotel’s
WIB offering.
- Funding
By following the Azotel franchise
model, your risk is significantly reduced
making the business attractive for investment.
Depending on circumstances, direct franchisor
financing is also available.
