The Reality of Buying A Franchise | The Good

There are a lot of really good things about buying a franchise. You are starting a business but you are not alone. We like to say you are going into business for yourself but not by yourself. You have the support of the franchise system you are buying into. So you are going to have some more freedom when it comes to deciding what your working hours look like and you are your own boss.

In some instances, you can have an impact on the development of the franchise system you are buying into. If you end up buying into an emerging company, you can have an impact on how they do business, the systems they use and other areas of the business. All of that without the risk of starting your company with no support.

When you use a Franchise Broker, you will get all of the information you are looking for in order to buy the right franchise. You will be able to vet other franchisees and you will be able to get actual numbers for how well they are doing and how much they have invested into their franchise.

The Reality of Buying A Franchise | The Not So Good

There is a possibility that you go through the process of looking at a franchise and you are then rejected by the franchise company. They have the right to award a franchise at the end of the process. They may decide that you are not the right fit for their company and not award you the franchise. This is one of many reasons why you should use a franchise broker (we will talk more in detail about this in a few weeks!).

There can be a lot of money that is required to be invested into a new franchise. You may need to get a loan or borrow money elsewhere. A lot of people see this as a bad thing but we don’t!
