Whether you’re a seasoned Franchisee, or an aspiring Entrepreneur looking to own your first business, there are a plethora of Franchise opportunities on the market.
While it’s true that the success rate in Franchised businesses is 50% greater than independent businesses, careful consideration of your personal objectives and positioning is essential before buying a Franchise. Finding a suitable franchise and deciding whether a particular Franchise is right for you requires thinking about your goals and expectations, as well as your financing abilities.
Goals and Expectations
If the idea of purchasing a business with an established brand, structure, and support system appeals to you, as opposed to starting your own new business from scratch; then Franchising may be for you.
If you like the idea of working for yourself, rather than by yourself, assistance with lease negotiations and site development, and access to established standard operating procedures and operations manuals, likely appeals to you. However, it’s important to be cognizant of the reduced autonomy associated with operating a Franchised business, than if you were operating your own business.
Financing Abilities
When considering the financial side of things, it’s important that you look beyond the minimum investment requirements and consider your ability to cover expenses before your business becomes profitable. Before buying a Franchise, you should be assessing both how much you can realistically invest, as well as how much you can afford to lose.
