KidStage is offering unique and fun-filled franchises. Our opportunity can be a home-based business in which you offer KidStage classes which actually take place in your local schools, day care centers, senior citizen centers, boys and girls clubs, YMCA's etc. No high costs of leasing or purchasing space. You will find KidStage a profitable and high-demand business.
KidStage is a complete "Performing Arts Learning Center" using ordinary classrooms as our "theatre" in which we teach children self-expression and creativity, as well as give them confidence through their participation in theatrical productions. With overcrowded schools, over-worked teachers and tight school budgets, the extra time and effort needed to help students is practically non-existent. KidStage was formed specifically to solve this growing problem. We have spent over 15 years developing solutions to assist in helping children.
The success of our programs has propelled us to the point that we are now offering Franchises in selected areas. We are seeking creative, enthusiastic individuals interested in establishing a successful business while at the same time making a positive difference in the lives of children. Most importantly, theatre experience is not necessary!
Rolly Pollies® is the premier Children's Development Center in the country offering the most effective and comprehensive gym, music and creative arts programs, and a proven, reliable system for generating results. We give you the tools, training, and methods to create a successful business that provides lasting value for its students, their families and their communities.
Child-centered businesses are everywhere and the industry is growing rapidly. As the baby boom continues, and more and more kids are competing for shrinking resources, parents will continue to look for new and creative outlets for their children. This trend will allow for tremendous growth in this industry . . . and the Rolly Pollies® franchise model is on the cutting edge of that growth.
As a Rolly Pollies® franchisee, you won't "work" another day in your life. Meeting and establishing relationships with people in your community, teaching their kids and helping them grow and develop will, without question, be unlike any other job you've ever had. No more business suits, no more meetings, and no more bosses ... just good people, a healthy atmosphere, and lots and lots of fun!
