Looks like a great plan to obtain the kind of revenue stream that they feel can possibly make a big difference for Smart. There are easily a few thousand treatment centers throughout the UK, and if even a third agree to sign, it could be bea-u-tiful.
I'm confident I could train a crew that would exceed a 50% close ratio. I'd be willing to take it on if the overrides were substantial enough. And I if got a chunk of the renewal fees after the initial contract expiration.
Nothing like this has ever been attempted in the area of Recovery/Franchising, and it's just the tip of the iceberg. Just think of the opportunities in other areas that have in the mouldy past relied on the good will of people to help others. Getting some people together who possess a vision could easily translate into more than a few bucks shaking out. Could be amazingly good.
