Why Passport Health?
A Passport Health franchise:
- Puts you in charge of your own destiny
- Builds a business you can sell for a better retirement
- Attracts pleasant upscale clientele
- Has a proven track record and a formula
- Can be opened in attractive geographic areas
How Our Low-Overhead Service Works:
- A small suite of offices provides a start-up setting.
- No fancy build out or specialty equipment required.
- Products are not perishable and take up little space.
- Offices generally have normal business hours.
- No insurance to deal with – customers pay by check, cash or credit card.
- The benefit of group volume purchasing power.
- Vaccines – your main products – typically have a long shelf life and are returnable if they expire
People desire familiarity, and familiarity creates trust. A national franchise with a growing reputation for excellence provides this trust. Franchising is gaining popularity in health care with ventures such as eye care and weight management. Passport Health follows a traditional, successful model that works.
Purchasing Power
Large systems, which pool resources, have enhanced purchasing power. The Passport Health System negotiates with pharmaceutical companies for discounts. Our system also provides private label products and services with instant name recognition that franchisees can sell to enhance travel health services.
Stable Staffing
Staffing a Passport Health franchise is straightforward; you can open your office with minimal staff and ramp up with professional nurses as business grows. Nurses are looking for autonomous positions, close to home, with flexible hours. You do not have to train and retrain student workers.
Passport Health: An Excellent Opportunity
Passport Health is a simple, low-overhead service company, which provides immunizations, related health products, insurance and safety and security information to those about to travel to a foreign country. Basically, we are in the immunization business, as we also perform onsite services such as Flu, Tetanus/Diptheria and Hepatitis clinics for employers, companies and individuals. We already are a household name across the country, but there are plenty of great territories remaining!
A Growing Clientele
- Our clients usually fall into four categories:
- Leisure travelers
- Personal business travelers
- Business travelers
- U.S. Government contracts
The leisure traveler has often been to many European destinations and is looking for adventure— bird watching in Belize, trekking in Nepal or visiting the ruins in Peru. Corporations are expanding into new markets, as well. Farmers are selling to Russia, clothing is being manufactured in Indonesia, and crabmeat is being harvested in the Philippines. The personal business traveler may be adopting a baby in Viet Nam or working with a medical team in Honduras. Study abroad programs and church missions are venturing further overseas to places such as Africa and China.
Our typical travelers can easily afford to pay for services rendered. They are grateful for the personal attention we offer during this age of managed care with abbreviated visits.
Immunizations Against Bioterrorism Needed
Vaccines are in demand to fight the growing concerns about bio-terrorism, and Passport Health is excellently positioned to answer this call. Our work is expanding with the U.S. Government, the military and the private sector to implement anthrax vaccinations, as well as the newest vaccines under development.
