We Give You A Territory Plus 200 Qualified Business Leads Every Single Month

Build A Recurring Income AI Business In Your Area
With Training, Leads & Full Support Included for under £10,000

Stage 1 Franchise only 4 exclusive UK territories available.

The Hardest Part Of Starting A Business Is Finding Clients.
We Solved That First with Merlin.

Most people don’t fail because they can’t sell.
They fail because they don’t know:

  • Who to contact first

  • What to say

  • How to start a relevant conversation

That’s where Assist is different, for two reasons:

First our internal AI prospecting engine, Merlin, helps identify local businesses and highlights likely growth gaps, missed opportunities, and “door opener” insights you can use to start better conversations.
Second we host monthly free workshops for local businesses. You invite, we deliver.

So instead of random prospecting, you begin with a hot list.

Meet The Founder

Meet Mark Hackett — Founder & AI Automation Leader

30+ years in business. An MBA. A career built on lead generation franchising, sales and business growth, and now AI automation.

Mark has seen every type of business opportunity — the ones that deliver and the ones that don't.

So when he built Assist AI, he built it differently.

He created Merlin — an AI prospecting engine that delivers 200+ qualified local business leads to franchisees every single month. Because he knew that without a reliable way to find clients, even the best franchise system fails.

Mark is personally involved in every Stage 1 onboarding. He's not a figurehead — he's in the business daily, building something he believes in.

Only 4 territories. Only 4 Stage 1 franchisees. All personally selected.

Is one of them you?

Investment, Process & Practical FAQs

Clear answers to the most common questions about training, fees, exclusivity and daily operations.

Do I need experience

No - we handle all of the tech and we train you on the Assist Marketing portal so that you can demonstrate it to prospects

Do I need sales experience?

You don’t need pro sales experience, but you must be comfortable speaking to business owners and following scripts. We filter for people who will do calls and follow a weekly routine.

What is included in training?

Training covers Merlin reports, outreach scripts, onboarding clients, the delivery scope HQ handles, reporting and compliance. Training is required before trading.

How does territory reservation work?

A £695 + VAT reservation fee holds the area for 4 weeks while you complete paperwork. Extension option available for £395 + VAT under strict conditions.

What happens after 4 weeks?

If you haven’t completed training and payment obligations, the reservation may lapse. Extensions are available under set terms.

How do payments work?

The franchise fee (£9,995 + VAT) less the reservation fee can be paid in full or split across four monthly instalments (£2,325 + VAT). Training commencement and payment plan standing order are required for trading and exclusivity.

What does Assist HQ do vs franchisee?

Franchisee: local outreach, discovery, sales and account growth. Assist HQ: Merlin opportunity engine, monthly business workshops, onboarding, systems, product delivery within defined scope, reporting and backend support.

How is exclusivity granted?

Exclusivity is granted once training is complete, the payment has been made and minimum activity/KPI thresholds are met.

What support do I get?

Onboarding, training, playbooks, Merlin access, Monthly client business workshops, weekly action plan to start, weekly / monthly check-ins and Assist HQ-managed delivery for client packages as per defined scope.

Can I run this part-time?

Part-time applicants may apply, but you must be realistic about outreach volume and activity required to meet KPIs. We prioritise candidates who can commit to the expected weekly routine.

Is there demand

Absolutely only around 5% of businesses are using AI and most are only talking to Chat GPT. This is the next industrial revolution so you are either at the table or you are on the menu!

How quickly can I start

Within days, not weeks. Training takes no longer than seven days, after that you are good to go
