FRANCHISING 101: A Free Event on May 20

Franchises are everywhere. Restaurants, tax preparers, oil change locations.  Don’t forget about day care academies, hair salons and pet supply stores. These are businesses started by everyday entrepreneurs like me and you, but rely on a concept developed by someone else.

So, why use another’s idea to start a business?

• Using an established brand can give you a jump start, compared to trying to create success from scratch.
• Combined buying power from several franchisees can give you an advantage and keep your costs low.
• A fraternity of franchisees that want you to succeed, providing an immediate support system.

This is just a few reasons to open up a franchise location. Find out more, including the questions to ask a franchisor, at my upcoming seminar on Tuesday, May 20.  This free session goes over various business ownership options and examines if business ownership is right for you.
