Why you shouldn’t fight your franchisor

You’re excited about finally owning your own franchise. So excited, in fact that you are bursting with ideas and inspiration! The problem is, those ideas sometimes clash with what your franchisor has in mind. Here’s why listening to them is probably a good thing.

Years of experience

If you’ve never owned a franchise, or never owned the particular one you’re considering, heed the voice of experience from your franchisor. They’re likely to be much more knowledgeable about its ins and outs than you are at this point. They may have already considered and tried many of your ideas, only to find out they’re untenable for a reason.

The right kind of franchisor

If you keep finding yourself butting heads with your franchisor, it may be you’re just in the wrong franchise. There are so many different types out there – you may be better off with one that’s already being run the way you want. Consider this carefully before you actually purchase a franchise license.

In the end, fighting your franchisor will not only drain you of time and energy, but it won’t be profitable. The odds are good your franchisor knows what they’re doing – so trust them to pave the way for your success!

Five surprising facts you’ll discover when starting a franchise

2020-04-21T20:50:09-04:00February 25th, 2020|

79820155_MStarting a franchise is a long and involved process, and you’ll learn lots of new things along the way. Here are some of the biggest discoveries you’ll make when starting out your new franchise.

There are thousands of options out there

You might be surprised to learn just how many franchise options are out there. From autowork to child care, fast food to fitness, and hotels to beauty services, the franchise world is vast and a little overwhelming. For help weeding through all the paperwork and research, be sure to work with a franchise consultant. With the right experience and knowledge, a franchise consultant can help you navigate the franchise world and get you started on the road to success.

Your personal shopping habits might not be the best route

You might have your eye on a particular franchise because you’re a fan of its products or services, but not so fast! Just because you enjoy what a franchise produces doesn’t mean you can be the successful owner of that type of business. For example, a fast food franchise will have longer and later hours, but that might not fit into your schedule. Listen to the advice of your franchise consultant when selecting a direction.

You’ll need to take an in-depth look at your current financial and personal situation

If your franchise consultant starts asking you in-depth questions about your finances, don’t be alarmed. They are simply getting a picture of your current financial state so they can recommend franchises that will be a good fit for you. Franchise consultants have the insider information on the investment requirements of all the major franchise options, so knowing your financial state will help them match you with a franchise.

The franchisor will need to pick you, too

A franchisor-franchisee relationship is a two-way street, and the business you choose to work with will probably want to vet you to make sure they want to work with you too. They might conduct some analysis of their own to determine if you are a good fit. If this stresses you out, don’t worry. You have your franchise consultant on your side to help you make the right moves and stay on top of the game.

A franchise is more than just a monetary investment

You’ve probably already considered the financial aspect of investing in a franchise, but you should know that owning a franchise is also a personal, professional, and emotional investment. You’ll be spending a lot of time and energy to make this a success, and everyone involved wants to make sure it’s worth it.

Now that you have a better understanding of the process, are you ready to learn more about owning a franchise? Reach out to us today and we will put you in touch with our experts.
