WonderPlay Brands Franchise Conference Recap

The theme for our fall conference, "Jump On Board," was chosen not only because we were in Minnesota—the land of 10,000 lakes—but also to reflect our goal of encouraging franchisees to fully leverage corporate resources to drive their ongoing success. This theme underscored the collaborative spirit and commitment that defined our conference

The most recent franchise conference held in Minnesota provided a blend of learning, networking, and celebration for franchisees from across the nation. Over the course of a few days, attendees were afforded the unique opportunity to tour both the corporate headquarters and the recently unveiled corporate studios, offering insights into operational excellence aimed at driving the franchisees’ continued success. This tour was complemented by informative sessions designed to enhance franchisees’ knowledge and provide a platform to learn about best practices with fellow franchise owners.

Networking played a pivotal role in the conference, allowing franchisees to exchange ideas and strategies that fuel growth and resilience within the competitive marketplace. This sense of community and collaboration is vital, as it empowers franchise owners to leverage shared experiences for mutual benefit. The conference culminated in a memorable dinner cruise on Lake Minnetonka, an event that offered participants a chance to unwind and reflect on the insights gained. The evening festivities were highlighted by an award ceremony, celebrating remarkable achievements and inspiring future endeavors within the franchise network. This blend of professional development and social engagement underscored the franchise’s commitment to fostering a thriving community of successful business owners.
