Frequently Asked Questions
An extranet is essentially a franchise intranet — a secure online hub that connects all franchisees. As a private network, the franchisor can control information, communication, and access, making it easy to build community and connection across a geographically dispersed network. Share resources, best practices, updates, and foster collaboration in one digital space.
Maintaining rigorous standards and uniting all members of a network is simple when everyone has access to the same information on a wide variety of devices. While a corporate intranet plays that role in traditional business models, an extranet can accomplish those goals for a franchise network. An extranet keeps everyone on the same page, drives brand consistency, and empowers the network to succeed. Advanced communication tools allow centralized comms teams to segment audiences with a high degree of granularity, meaning you can manually and automatically (through AI) surface content and communications to managers, regions, franchises, employees, or any group you need to reach.
Choose a platform that balances security, ease of use, and customisation. Selecting a vendor with deep experience in building and delivering both intranets and franchise extranets will make it easier to perform valuable platform integrations and tailor the system to your specific needs.
Communication and governance are two critical aspects of an extranet's success. It's essential to give franchisees a user-friendly experience that signposts all the relevant information they need, has advanced search capabilities, and offers automated content governance options. This removes the manual element from updating or reviewing content. Supporting articles for franchise intranet: 7 Ways an Intranet Supports Retail.
