Central Coast News

Kelland will begin operation of TapSnap Australia’s first franchise this month, introducing event entertainment and photo marketing experiences to the Central Coast, before expanding the brand nationwide in early 2017.

“We are excited about bringing TapSnap’s unique brand of photo entertainment to Australia,” said Scott McInnes, TapSnap’s CEO and Founder. “We are always looking for opportunities to grow our brand internationally, so when Dan came to us and we started talking, we knew we had found the right person to help us do just that.”

“Dan has all of the qualities that make a great TapSnap franchisee, he’s fun, personable, driven, and a team player.” McInnes continued, “he also knows what it’s like to successfully run a master franchise, we cannot wait to see how Australians embrace him and TapSnap.”

A Certified Franchise Executive (CFE) and a member of the Franchise Council of Australia, Kelland has over six years of master franchising experience with Little Kickers and Little Rugby in New South Wales. Dan’s knowledge should prove invaluable to his newest role as TapSnap’s master franchisee for Australia. “I’m super excited about taking TapSnap into Australia, and launching it in my home region will be fantastic. There’s nothing quite like introducing an exciting new brand into a completely new market. Australians by nature are very social and I imagine there will be no shortage of events for us to attend. We just can’t wait to get started and show them TapSnap. It’s a completely different take on the traditional photo booth and nothing of its kind has been seen here before.” he said.

Kelland continued, “I truly believe that TapSnap will be a great success in Australia. The brand has participated in some amazing events to date, including the X Games, the Volvo Around the World Yacht Race and multi-city movie premieres to name a few. We are very much looking forward to embracing our local community and showing them the TapSnap Experience.”
