BodyCo: A Tattoo Franchise

Last week I spoke with Paul Cooper from BodyCo, a tattoo franchise in Canada. I don’t have an tattoos, and after talking to him, I don’t think I’ll be setting foot in a tattoo shop unless it is a BodyCo one.

Paul explained that the typical method of tattooing is a dirty and unhealthy experience. One example he gave was of cross contamination between the client and artist: A tattoo is an open wound and microscopic blood splatter from the tattoo is projected by the tattoo gun into the air. Most artists don’t wear face masks, so the artist breaths in the blood and can become contaminated with any disease the client might be infected with. Also, since the artist isn’t wearing a mask, he’s breathing and sending microscopic saliva particles right into the open wound of the tattoo, potentially infecting the client with anything he’s carrying.

Paul and BodyCo want to clean up the industry with their extreme sanitary measures. BodyCo offers clients the safest tattooing and body piercing procedures in the industry and the highest quality body art jewelry. Artists use the ‘New World Standard’ method, which eliminates cross-contamination, regardless of individual artistic styles. BodyCo’s unique methods have amazed healthcare professionals, gained clients worldwide and maintained a rapidly growing list of loyal clientele.

“Our franchisees will bring safe body art to their city,” Cooper said. “We created a new method of body art procedures that is more stringent than Universal Precautions alone. This keeps artists and clients risk-free of contracting and spreading diseases. For further protection, we incorporated non-carcinogenic, non-corrosive, biodegradable sterilants and cleaners.”

“Over 20,000 parlors operate in the United States, with a new shop opening every day,” said Cooper. “It’s time to change the industry’s irresponsibility and alert them of their mistakes. We provide a safe, drug/alcohol free, creative environment for artists to develop their abilities and careers. It’s personally rewarding with our ‘cleaner, safer, better’ way of operation.”

A BodyCo franchise offers many advantages over the competition and other franchise opportunities. The business is recession-resistant, it offers a high demand/profit margin compared to other industries, the existing competition is weak, and it’s a ground-floor opportunity.

Franchisees receive over 70 hours of initial training at corporate headquarters in Ontario and on-site. Training covers all aspects of the operation and includes instructional materials. Franchisees also receive site location and grand-opening assistance, on-going support, refresher-training programs for managers or employees, and periodic visits from corporate office. Practicing artists are easily retrained and reeducated with a higher level of safety.

Cooper currently has two locations, and his goal is to have 2,000 shops around the world within 10 years. Since tattooing is one of the fastest growing retail ventures, and tattoos have become mainstream, his goal is very realistic. After all, more than 36 percent of Americans ages 18 to 40 have at least one tattoo.
