FULLY PROMOTED ACHIEVES SYSTEMWIDE SALES REVENUE INCREASE AND SURPASSES MILESTONES IN 2023

    WEST PALM BEACH, FL, December 07, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Fully Promoted®, a full-service branded apparel, promotional products, and marketing service franchise, is closing out 2023 as one of the most successful years in its company history with projections to end the year with 45 total franchise deals executed between the U.S. and Australia. This represents a 100% increase in overall franchise signings over 2022 and will result in 35 new locations as well as 10 transfers. The brand also added three new locations to its global franchise network through its Master Franchise Partnerships in Canada and Mexico. Overall, Fully Promoted has seen a nearly 5% growth in systemwide sales revenue with existing locations worldwide.

"It has been a tremendous year for Fully Promoted and none of it could have been possible without the incredible franchise owners and employees that make this brand what it is. Their passion and dedication inspires and motivates me every single day," said Andrew Titus. "What we've accomplished this year has laid a foundation for even greater success in 2024 and beyond as we continue to help our clients attract, retain, and engage with their customers and employees. The future is bright, and I feel deeply honored to have been entrusted with this brand."

December 2023 marks a year since Andrew Titus took the helm as President of Fully Promoted where he laid out goals to accelerate the brand's growth and increase franchise owner revenue. Andrew, who is the youngest son of Fully Promoted founder Ray Titus, has delivered on his promises with several locations surpassing sales benchmarks year-over-year. These sales milestones are in part a result of a broader brand initiative Fully Promoted outlined for the year in which it set out to define its brand identity.

"Going into this year, we really wanted to define what we do, who we are, and why people want to do business with us because moving as a cohesive unit with a shared vision is paramount to success," added Titus. "That's when we determined that our mission is helping our clients attract, retain, and engage with their customers through real products, facilitated by real people, producing real results. This has become our mantra in all we do, and it has been pivotal in taking our brand to new heights." As a result, Fully Promoted has seen significant increases in repeat orders from existing clients as well as in order sizes; average invoice value has increased across the board.

For over two decades, Fully Promoted has been recognized as a leader within the promotional products industry and consistently ranks as a Top Distributor by industry organizations like Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) and the Advertising Specialty Institute (ASI). Andrew and his father Ray were recently named among the most influential executives in the promo industry on ASI Counselor's Power 50 list. Additionally, Fully Promoted continues to garner acclaim in the franchising industry as a standout franchise opportunity. The brand ranked #1 in its category on Entrepreneur magazine's 2023 Franchise 500 ranking of the top franchise opportunities, marking its 21st consecutive year on the list. The brand also recently landed on Franchise Times' 2023 Top 400 exclusive ranking of the largest U.S.-based franchise system by global systemwide sales while its Boise, Idaho franchise made the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. for the second year in a row. Regionally, Fully Promoted made the South Florida Business Journal's inaugural Private 100 list of the top private companies ranked by 2022 revenue.
