This southwest Montana business is a franchise established 15 years ago serving the visitors to Bozeman - Big Sky - Livingston - Belgrade, Montana. The product is a hand illustrated map that is geared to the visitors of the area to show them the best places to shop, dine, stay, play and essential services. 75,000 copies of the map are published annually and they are available for free in 300 locations around SW Montana including area airports, Chambers, restaurants, Montana State University . . . The Discovery Map is published annually and you can pick the season and your timing. The responsibilities of the franchisee are to sell ads to the businesses that would appeal to the visitors of the area. That is where the income comes from. There is plenty of growth opportunity for the map. Discovery Map International provides training and they do the artwork and display design and hire the artist to make annual changes to the artwork. The successful franchisee will be a person that enjoys networking, walking into businesses and being able to handle NO's and be just as enthusiastic walking into the next business. Renewals year to year have been about 75%. The area drawn on the map includes businesses in Bozeman, Big Sky, Livingston and Belgrade. This business is part-time and primarily seasonal when you are working on the next edition. I hire 2 distributors - one for the Bozeman area and one for the Big Sky area to help with year round distribution. This is a simple business to do by yourself. You don't have to depend on labor not showing up to work. You decide how much you want to work and the more you work, the more money you can make. Instead of waiting for customers to come into your door of your business, YOU go to them. The Discovery Map of Bozeman-Big Sky-Livingston is a well established franchise with a great reputation in SW Montana. It is a fun product to sell to the area
