A first step towards your own franchise

What is a part-time Memory Catcher?

Everything a Memory Catcher does, on your own hours. You take babies' hand and footprints at home visits in the mornings, evenings or at weekends, and at the odd local event when it suits you. Families get exactly the same Memory Catcher experience and the same keepsakes.

There's no hard selling. No scripts. No pressure. The product does the talking. Once the prints are taken, we handle everything else, from the upload and the proof to the foiling and the posting.

Who it suits. Mums who'd love a few hundred pounds a month alongside their job, without going all in on a full-time business.

And people who already spend their days with new parents, like newborn photographers, who want something lovely to offer the families they already see. It sits alongside what you do now.

Part time or your own franchise?

Both are Memory Catchers, and families can't tell the difference. The difference is what you put in, what's yours, and what you earn on every sale.

Register Your Interest

Three ways to earn.From your very first visit.

Register Your Interest

01

Your Commission on Every Sale (30%)

Every keepsake you sell at a home visit or event earns you 30% commission. On a framed print at £44.95, that's about £13.50 a sale. A typical session takes about four hours with travel and setting up and earns about £75, so roughly £19 an hour.

02

Affiliate Commission on Website Sales (20%)

You get your own referral link and QR code. If a parent orders online later, or passes your link to a friend, any kit ordered through it earns you 20% commission.

03

The most hands-off

Memorial Keepsakes for Funeral Homes (20%)

Families can keep a loved one’s handprint as a framed foil keepsake, ordered through their funeral home. You don’t take these prints: the funeral home’s own team does. Your part is the relationship with the funeral homes near you, and you earn 20% of the package price the family paid, once the funeral home has paid its invoice. It fits a busy week well.

What you’ll be offering

What families can order from you

The same range a franchisee offers. You show the samples and take the prints, and our studio makes every keepsake, from foil prints to engraved slate baubles and keyrings. Memorial keepsakes come through funeral homes, and pet keepsakes through vets and pet crematoria.

Foil prints are always life size. Baubles and keyrings are engraved, so the prints are scaled to fit.

What a month could look like

Examples, not promises, built from our founding Memory Catcher's real sessions. Every one shows the hours it takes, all in, and what that works out to an hour.

Example monthSessionsHome visitsFuneral homesHours, all inYou earnPer hour
Getting started4 (one a week)20about 23 (5 a week)about £340about £15
Steady8 (two a week)24about 39 (9 a week)about £780about £20
Busy12 (three a week)46about 58 (13 a week)about £1,190about £20

At 30% commission: about £75 a session (£250 average takings; our founding Memory Catcher averages about £267), £15 a home visit and about £33 for each memorial family on the two-print package, one a month from each funeral home, plus a kit or two ordered through your link. Hours count four per session for travel and setting up, one per home visit, and a few for uploads and funeral homes. Before tax and running costs. Funeral homes take time to sign, and memorial is new, so treat that part as an extra.

The small print, in plain English

  • No monthly targets, just keep active. It runs for 12 months and renews free, as long as you've made a sale in at least 6 of them.
  • The card reader stays ours. If you stop, you send it back so the next Memory Catcher can use it. If it's lost or broken, it needs replacing.
  • Your kits and cards are yours to keep, whatever happens.
  • You're paid on what you sell, never on signing other people up. Commission is worked out for you and paid every month, with nothing to invoice.
