BEWARE! A bit of self indulgence here.
My newsagency launched as newsXpress Forest Hill yesterday.
We have re-branded as a result of joining the newsXpress franchise group. We’re the first outside Queensland for this forty strong group of newsagencies.
Here’s the Saturday team of employees just before the launch – all looking nice in their new uniforms.
newsXpress offers the valuable discipline of a national group yet with the flexibility necessary for proud independent ownership. Being part of this will help my newsagency compete with the major chains and with the government owned Australia Post.
newsXpress provides me with a strong brand behind which my business can trade. The photo below shows our magazine header cards – professional, branded and meeting Magazine Publishers of Australia (MPA) standards.
I’m proud that my store is the first outside Queensland. The first in New South Wales opens in early August. newsXpress has a goal of 100 stores by the end of the year.
Disclosure: I have taken a shareholding in the master franchise company and am a Director of the business.
Hi Mark,
I saw my first Newsxpress shop yesterdy at Ascot Vale. I was not aware of the organization until they called me to order my range they had seen at the GNS fair last year.
I was very impressed with the shop as I am indeed with the presentation of yours – which prompts me to contact you.
We import two brands of wallcharts from Singapore and have for a few years now been the sole suppier of wallcharts to GNS and though them various newsagencies of which you could well be one.
I am currently negotiating with Mark at newsxpress to become a preferred supplier and would be delighted to have you come on board as a customer.
If you want to see our ranges pleae visit http://WWW.mightyminds.com.sg and brunobear.com.
You can contact me by e-mail to this address or my phone number is 9974 2525.
What I really like about the newsxpress set-up is the clear and clean lines of the layout which gives the customer the opportunity to see the merchandise on offer.
If I don’t hear from you before the GNS fair please come and see us Stand 73A – I wish you well with your business.
Pat.
