Become a Flatpack licensee
Start your own flatpack business. No assembly required.
Do you dream of IKEA instruction manuals, know how to work an Allen key, and find flatpack assembly fun? You’ve stumbled into your perfect business model.
Flatpack Professor was founded by Stan, our furniture assembly expert with a knack for business and marketing. Along the way, he met many flatpack experts who had a keen eye for furniture, instruction manuals and keeping track of every screw, but lacked the time and interest in building a brand. Usually, when you’re out on your own, marketing becomes your main job — and flatpack assembly becomes the side hustle.
But we’ve turned the tables for furniture installers. Flatpack Professor now offers licensing, so you can unbox your own reputable brand in the flatpack furniture industry — no assembly required.
The marketing side of flatpack assembly — boxed up and ready
Start your business, and we’ll provide the boring bits. Flatpack Professor provides brand awareness, logos, market share and more — so you can jump right into the furniture assembly part. As a licensee, you will utilise our brand assets and reputable name to start your own flatpack business in the Sydney area. Here’s what you need to get started:
- Availability to service the Sydney area
- Police check
- Confidence to interact with customers and get the job done
- No experience necessary — you get an instruction manual with each job
Don’t let the business side hold you back
Our done-for-you business model sets you up to start instantly, providing all the spare parts you need to succeed. Flatpack Professor becomes your partner, not your boss, which means there is no requirement to operate the business full time — and daily decisions are in your hands. Stick to what you do best, and we’ll take care of the technicalities.

FAQ
Will I have a boss?
No, we’re more like your partner. You will choose your own hours, make daily decisions, accept the jobs you want, and do it your way (with our help). Day to day operations will be your responsibility, and we’ll be here for back end support.
Is flatpack experience required?
No experience is required. Many flatpack assembly jobs involve furniture that is designed to be assembled by regular customers. Instruction manuals are always included, and you’ll quickly pick up a knack for assembly.
What do I get?
You get to start your furniture assembly business with all the branding bits handled. We provide access to our recognisable name, logos and marketing assets — like a business-in-a-flatpack-box you can use your own way.
Can I work for another job or assembly company at the same time?
Yes. You can use this licensee opportunity any way that works for you. You may perform other work at the same time, including for other furniture assembly businesses.
What’s the licensing fee?
There is a one-time start up fee of $2,500+GST. After that, it’s just one ongoing weekly fee of $175+GST for us to cover the business and marketing side of things.
