We have written a number of blogs on franchising and also created a free Buying a Franchise Planning Sheet.
This week I've published a video highlighting 4 issues you should consider very carefully before buying a franchise.
Franchising has received some negative publicity lately, but the model can be a successful one.
However, it is very important for someone going into a franchise network to do their due diligence upfront.
I am not saying ‘never buy a franchise’.
I am saying make sure your eyes are well open before you buy, know the reasons you’re buying it and make sure you have independent, robust advice to evaluate the expected returns and confirm there is a good probability you will achieve your business objectives.
