WSI is experiencing impressive growth, as was outlined in a 2005 Internet Consultant Profitability Study. Franchisees have experienced a 50% plus increase in revenues which McArthur attributes to WSI’s ongoing marketing initiatives, training programs, conferences and seminars. He states that “The vision of WSI is to be the leading provider of Internet solutions to SMEs the world over and it is our mission to help these businesses harness the power of the Internet and maximize their profits”. He goes on to say, that WSI's message to the SME business owner is "Your business needs the ABCs of Internet Marketing Success™: A – Affordable Website Solutions, B – Build Targeted Traffic and C – Convert More Customers Online. WSI Consultants can bring these ABCs to your business”.

McArthur discusses the uniqueness of the WSI business opportunity, and how the “freedom franchise” allows franchisees to leverage their management experience, business expertise, and entrepreneurial spirit to grow their business. Combining these skills with WSI’s proven resources available to them, such as daily Web conferences, research studies, monthly e-Newsletters, mentoring programs and ambassador coaching, WSI Consultants are well-equipped to meet the unique needs of SMEs in vertical markets around the world. WSI Consultants are abreast of the trends in the Internet industry, and offer more to their clients than a Web developer can.

When asked why a potential franchisee should consider joining WSI, McArthur explains that WSI is “committed to continued excellence and innovation in our business practices which helps us maintain our position as the #1 Internet and Tech Services franchise business in the world. As we expand our franchise network enlisting the best of breed highly qualified franchisees serving more SMEs, 2006 is set to be a particularly exciting year for us.
