It is impossible to ignore the reality that AI is both the present and future of how businesses operate successfully.
SMEs across the UK and worldwide are actively adopting automation to reduce costs, improve efficiencies, and stay competitive. But even if businesses are clearly ready for AI solutions, the fact is they are not always ready to implement it themselves.
That’s where Valenta comes in. Or more importantly, that’s where you come in.
We are building a global network of Managing Partners (our franchisees) formed of people just like you, who act as trusted advisers to SMEs navigating their all-important digital transformation.
But unlike traditional tech businesses, we don’t expect our franchisees to be developers or engineers. You don’t even need to have any specialist knowledge or AI expertise.
Instead, we look for commercially driven individuals with the skills to build relationships, lead conversations, and drive change for clients. They are people who want to run their own business in a high-growth industry, with the full backing of a global brand behind them.
So what makes a great Valenta franchisee who is positioned to capitalise on the exponential demand for AI?
We’ve detailed the five key traits we look for below. If they sound like you, there’s a good chance you’re ready to take the first step with us.
- Focus on relationships, not just salesOur most successful franchisees are those who understand our business model is not about quick-win sales; Valenta is all about trusted, long-term client partnerships.
You will be engaging with SME decision-makers, such as business owners and operations directors, and who are often overwhelmed with legacy processes and admin-heavy operations.They’re not looking for flashy tech for the sake of it. They want someone who can understand their pain points and inefficiencies, and guide them toward real, practical, AI-powered solutions.Our franchisees lead with value, credibility, and consistency – three core pillars that keep clients coming back and scaling up their services over time.
If you naturally build rapport, ask great questions, and genuinely enjoy helping businesses succeed, selling AI is the smartest sales role you will ever take on.
- Strong commercial acumen and strategic thinkingTo succeed, you absolutely must understand how businesses operate and how to identify opportunities for improvement.
Many of our top-performing Managing Partners have backgrounds in:
- Sales and business development
- Consultancy or professional services
- Operations and project management
- C-suite or senior leadership rolesWhat these all have in common is the ability to see the bigger picture: they’re able to assess business challenges and spot where automation could make a significant impact on time, cost, and growth potential.If you’ve ever helped a business improve processes, grow revenue, or reduce inefficiencies, you are already equipped with one of the most important skills in our model
- A desire for business ownership and flexibilityIf you’re looking to break free from corporate limitations and take control of your time, income, and future, we offer a scalable, flexible model to do just that.
Our Managing Partners are business owners with the freedom to work on their terms, from anywhere, at any pace, and with no ceiling on growth.
You won’t be tied to an office or managing a large team (unless you choose to scale in that direction).
Most franchisees begin solo, building a strong foundation of 5–10 clients to achieve financial freedom before scaling up to six-figure recurring revenue.
From there, it’s entirely up to you how far you want to go.
- A genuine interest in innovation and the future of workWhile you do not need to be a tech expert to succeed as a Managing Partner, you do need to possess a curiosity for technology and a belief in its potential.
Why? Because SMEs will be asking you questions like:“How can I automate manual admin tasks?”
“How do I reduce payroll costs without compromising performance?”
“What’s the best way to integrate AI into my operations?”And you will be the person who answers these questions with confidence and clarity – not code.If you enjoy learning about new tools, future trends, and the evolving landscape of work, you will find your role both exciting and rewarding.
Remember: you will always have the full support of Valenta’s global delivery team, who handle all the technical implementation, training, and support.
This enables you to focus on strategy, relationships, and growth.
- The drive to build a business that mattersWe know there are many franchise opportunities out there for you to choose from.But few offer the chance to combine:
- Very high income potential
- Low overheads
- Meaningful client impact
- Ownership of a business in a booming global market
With Valenta, you will not just be another franchise selling products. You will be enabling real change for businesses in need of hands-on guidance to help them grow sustainably, thrive long into the future, and create better jobs for their staff.
So if you’re someone who wants to make a genuine impact – as well as a strong income – do not miss the AI gold rush with Valenta.
