Mertel Franchise For Sale – Event Agency

MERTEL FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITIES

Mertel was founded in 2005 by Lukas Jesensky and Dusan Masaryk, as a boutique event agency for clients who don't see events, ATL, BTL, social and digital as separate fields, but as ingredients that create a perfect dish together. All you need is an experienced chef. We strongly believe that events are crucial pieces of building a brand’s story.

It's this belief that helped us grow the agency into a franchising network of boutique offices that are able to combine the best concepts from individual markets with internationally tested processes.

Event planning with an advertising touch. From small, well-planned happenings, large-scale productions, conferences and fairs up to exclusive VIP extravaganzas, our team makes sure all your KPIs are met and all clients fondly remember your brand for a long time.

You can rely on us for organizing:

  • 360° Creative Event Production and Hybrid Solutions
  • EU Public Procurement
  • Conferences
  • Fairs and Exhibitions
  • Merchandising and Sales promotions

REQUIREMENTS TO BUY MERTEL FRANCHISE


We are looking for an event planning professional, small event agency or business-oriented marketing employee who passionately believes in the power of events. Not to work for us, but rather we want you to be the boss of your own Mertel agency.


MERTEL FRANCHISING MAIN BENEFITS

Harness the power of Mertel's brand.
Since our work is to help build brands for our customers, we all understand how important branding is for a business’ success. We’re the only event agency in the world to be recognized by the prestigious German Brand Award for Excellence in Brand Strategy, Management and Creation. And with Mertel franchising your brand-new agency can benefit from our strong brand in multiple ways.

Get a new business boost with proven track record and market research
It’s hard to succeed as a new event agency when all clients require proof or previous work and experience to even invite you to their pitch. But with Mertel franchising you get all that and much more from day one. It’s why we say joining Mertel is like having a 18 years’ head start.

ORCHESTRA – it's like hiring 20 people without hiring anyone
ORCHESTRA is our proprietary creative and project management system that does everything that usually takes a lot of time to do in event planning and running your own event agency. It saves time and money as it helps you work on more projects on your own or with fewer people. Being fully digital, ORCHESTRA, except creative shared conceptions, uses advanced data analysis to present you with monthly business intelligence reports that help you improve daily processes and overall key success metrics. At the same time, you’ll benefit from more than a decade of our experience in running all aspects of a successful event agency with clear best practices and actionable feedback. To make your agency launch lightning-fast, we get you started with a free mobile office – a MacBook packed with ORCHESTRA and everything you need to start working.

One Big Family
Becoming a Mertel franchising partner is like becoming a member of a big family. You can benefit from all Mertel´s brand successful creative concepts, that were organized by our franchise offices. That means you can use all proven concepts/events in your region ready to use with the whole package - idea, budgets, suppliers, references, marketing materials, presentations and many more. Becoming a family member means also meeting Mertel people, with whom you can communicate, who can help you with the event process and who can also be leased as a personal leasing - in case of big event creation. Headquarters are constantly creating free solutions for their partners in harder situations like for example during the coronavirus. They are organizing webinars to introduce successful concepts of the branch to all offices, training creativity and do training in areas that are needed and trying to find solutions.
