Did you know that 97% of all franchises opened during the
past 5 years are still open? Compare that to the fact that
less than 50% of non-franchised businesses are still open
after the same timeframe. Why are franchises so successful?
Franchises are successful because they have created a time-tested
and well-developed system for running a business. This system
takes into account all aspects of running a successful franchise,
and nothing is left to chance. The franchisor simply needs
to follow the game plan and they will be successful like all
of the other franchises in the system.
Since the system is so critical to the success of the franchisee,
franchisors offer their franchisees excellent training and
very close support during the life of the franchise relationship.
Sometimes franchisees get frustrated because franchisors offer
very little leeway in the way things are done, but franchisees
must understand that this is done for the good of both the
individual franchisee and for the of the overall franchise
organization as a whole.
If you are looking for a proven way to own your own successful
business, and don’t mind giving up most of the creative control
associated with developing that business, then a franchise
could be perfect for you. There is less risk and more support
to open a franchised business than there is to starting a
new business from scratch. And resale values are often higher
as well.
If franchising sounds interesting to you, there are thousands
of franchise opportunities across nearly every industry. Start
