Keeping the Connections: New Franchisees Discover Desirability of Business Services

The rise of e-commerce shipping, coupled with increased demand from residential and commercial shippers, has many of our own customers taking the entrepreneurial leap to purchase a thriving, recession-resilient Postal Connections® franchise in their neighborhood.

The pandemic has changed the way people work, with less commuting and more done online, resulting in local business services. Postal Connections franchises are performing well by delivering much needed business services. Locations are thriving with loyal customers who value service and trustworthy delivery.

Plus, new and currently operating franchise locations are being purchased by enthusiastic customers eager to become their own boss. Postal Connections offers an entry business, that is easy to learn and a rewarding retail concept for those who like people and solve their needs.

Standout franchisee Brent Kyzer-McHenry took ownership of Postal Connections in Verona, Wisconsin, from retirees Dan and Laura Brennan, earlier this year.

As he continues to build on a 15-year legacy of success, Brent quickly hit the ground running in his community and became a top-performing location nationwide in just a few months. He was recently honored at the 20th annual Postal Connections franchisee convention with the prestigious Top Sales Award.

“It couldn’t have been a better fit for me career-wise and lifestyle-wise,” Brent told The Verona Press. “I am excited about it. The business has grown already. Shipping has gone up exponentially. Especially since COVID-19, people are shipping more than they ever have.”

Other recent franchise transferees have realized the equity and potential. In addition to Verona, Postal Connections service centers recently were acquired in Hockessin, DE, Stevensville, MI and San Diego CA. Importantly, Postal Connections is a growing choice of new store buyers. Recently opened, Postal Connections in Melbourne FL is led by a longtime UPS store manager. In Sunriver, OR, the new franchisee worked as a FedEx Office employee and our newest franchisee operated independent stores in Arizona and San Diego.

We provide a large number of services with trained expertise ranging from shipping choices to digital fingerprinting to professional printing to selling customer items for them on eBay.
