What the heck is a franchise consultant?

Sometimes people have thoughts and beliefs that are unfounded about franchise ownership. Therefore, it’s very important for anyone seeking to invest in a franchise speak with a franchise consultant first. One of the misguided beliefs is that it may take years to re-coup your investment and/or it may take months to build a client base.

FranServe Certified Franchise Consultant (CFC) Richard Mithoff recently posted on LinkedIN a very interesting fact: “As a franchise expert, I’ve witnessed a transformative trend: franchises that not only offer robust training and support but also help in scheduling jobs right from the opening day. This approach significantly reduces the initial stress of finding clients and jumpstarts your business journey.”

Another unfounded belief is that in order to be a successful franchise owner, you must have millions of dollars saved. This too is untrue, given there are hundreds of opportunities available that have proven over the years to be solid and viable opportunities for less than $200,000 or even $100,000. In addition, there are many funding opportunities that only franchise consultants have access to that can help launch a franchise.

In fact, one highly successful business model with an extremely low investment is franchise consulting. Franchise consulting is a flexible work-from-home business. For many, it has been the perfect choice, where they can change lives and change generations all without the restrictions of a territory!
