You'll start with a one-day, introductory session, at Smoothie King headquarters, in Metairie, LA, where you'll be introduced the Smoothie King system, culture and pre-opening procedures. Topics include budgets, business planning, financing, site selection, construction, and ordering equipment. Next, is our mandatory, 11-day management training program. This takes place every month, in our Training Center, in Metairie, LA. This comprehensive, hands-on course will familiarize you with our core product knowledge and our operational systems. Finally, We'll send one of our Store Openers out to your location for up to 5 days to train you and your team members. You and your team will learn general store procedures and systems, ordering, budgeting, proper cleaning, as well as opening and closing procedures. The topics covered are required for the opening and operation of your new store. You'll also receive on-going support from an Operations Consultant who will be assigned to your store.
