Pinot's Palette Wins National Award for Franchisee Satisfaction

PORTSMOUTH, N.H., March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Pinot's Palette, a national franchise that's part art studio/part wine bar, scores high in franchisee satisfaction, according to a recent survey conducted by independent research firm Franchise Business Review.

The survey asked franchisees questions related to training and support, system communication, franchisor/franchisee relations, financial opportunity, business lifestyle, and overall satisfaction with their business. Eighty-eight percent of Pinot's Palette franchisees participated in the Franchise Business Review satisfaction survey. The full results are available at www.FranchiseBusinessReview.com.

"The whole 'sip and paint' space is very popular right now, but Pinot's Palette's FBR score shows there is a lot more to their success than popularity with consumers," said Franchise Business Review president Michelle Rowan. "In their second year surveying with us, Pinot's Palette scored significantly higher than average in every category of our survey — training and support, financial opportunity, leadership, and more."

Franchise Business Review recently recognized Pinot's Palette's exceptional survey results with a 2014 Franchisee Satisfaction Award — an annual award given to franchise companies with the highest satisfaction rankings.

Over the last nine years, Franchise Business Review has surveyed more than 100,000 franchisees from more than 750 of today's leading franchise brands. All active franchise owners who have been in business for three months or longer are invited to participate in this survey process.

"The above average survey results certainly corroborates Pinot's Palette's dedication to our franchisees." said Craig Ceccanti, co-founder and CEO. "Franchisee satisfaction and engagement are important to Pinot's Palette's long-term growth. Our survey data helps us better understand the experiences of our franchisees and how we can continually improve our system — keeping Pinot's Palette ahead of the competition."
