FAQs
How much does it cost?
We offer a unique license model whereby you pay an initial fee to access set up and then an ongoing fee. We aim to make it as affordable as possible and full of value. Much cheaper than a franchise but with more benefits. Hit the enquire button and you will get immediate access to our prospectus with the fees outlined.
How do i get started?
Scroll above where we have outlined these simple steps. Our prospectus includes all of the steps from enquiry to your opening party
How do I know if I am a good fit?
We will assess that with you as our aim is to make sure you are happy also and so we also want to make sure the fit is right for you. Through the enquiry button you will be taken to a short questionnaire that will ask about your experience and wishes etc. Once you have read the prospectus if you are feeling aligned then we would love to jump on a discovery call with you.
Do you provide training
Yes a lot. When you enquire you will receive a prospectus which will give you a detailed account, but to give you an idea, we have 30 hours of online training, 50 in person, a written operation guide and our online community herbalism course.
How many shops do you currently have?
As of writing this we have 18 shops along the East coast and in South Australia.
What is the difference between and license and a franchise
The key difference between a licensor and a franchisor is that the franchisor exercises greater control over the franchise and its business. This includes reporting, marketing expectations, auditing employment records, display, and pretty much stipulates everything you do. The Happy Herb license model provide much more room for diversification and creating your own theme for the shop (within reason)
Where do you currently need shops?
It is up to you to decide where you would like to open your store, we will help you understand if its feasible, but as long as it is not in the same territory as one of our other shops then its usually up to you. We have lots of opportunities on the easy coast still and all of the West and NT is open.
Can I sell other products that are not Happy Herbs
Yes, this is one of the unique benefits of our model, its about 40% Happy Herb supplied and 60% other suppliers. We provide you with a database of suppliers we have been working for for year. If you want to sell something that is very different then you just need to run it by us to ensure the brand integrity is intact.
How long does it take for me to fully get a handle of it.
We appreciate that there is much to learn and we really support you to get started, but the real learning happens when you start experiencing the customers and the vast landscape that we cover, so we remain on call for you through this process. Within 2-3 weeks you will be amazed out how well youre doing, and 2-3 months you will be all over it, but the real answer is we are always learning and growing in this space and that is actually one of the great things about it.
How does your affiliate program work with the bricks and mortar stores?
Our affiliate program was developed to ensure that the digital community was being looked after .. see our Herb Hero page for more info ( LINK IN ). As a bricks and mortar store you can also become an affiliate simply by sharing the website with your customers you will gain the highest rate of affiliate returns of 20%. You may also wish to send customers from your branded social media pages. We fulfill the order and issue you payment each month.
How does it work with your online store.
The Happy Herb Shop online is a company owned store however we aim to share the sales with you in a few ways, including click and collect options and a percentage of sales you send our way, either through your page on our website or through our affiliate program.
Can I have my own online store as well as a bricks and mortar store.
You sure can. In order to avoid brand confusion though you will need to create your own brand for this, EG Bobs Herbs online, which you can feed off your happy herb page on our website if you wish. We can support you by providing a template website if you wish.
Do you offer prescription plant medicines such as cannabis?
We partner with a dispensary so your customers can still access prescription plant medicines through your store. You get a referral fee for each prescription, so this can lead to an easy yet lucrative revenue stream.
Do I need to be a Happy Herb shop to retail your products?
No, we have wholesale opportunities for independent retailers, but we do need to ensure that they are not in the same territory as our licensed stores and that their virtues align with ours.
Can I join your licensed model but brand my store as something else?
Yes we have options for this that are approached on an individual basis. Our desire is to connect more humans with herbs and so we are open and support many ways to do this.
