10 Tips for Franchise Buyers
How to Buy a Traditional or Online Franchise
Choose a field you really like. It’s even
better if you even have experience in this
area.
Tip 1
Consider new opportunities and industry
trends, like a high-tech online franchise. Being
the new, different business can help you gain
customers.
If you choose a newer niche market, this can
sometimes help keep your advertising costs
low due to less competition.
Tip 2
Select a profitable location. You don’t want
high rent, but you do want lots of
customers.
Tip 3
Unless you are an attorney or accounting
professional, review your franchise
contract with one.
Tip 4
Find out from other franchisees what their
experiences have been with the company
with which you want to invest.
Tip 5
Are there lots of lawsuits between
franchisees and the franchisor?
Tip 6
Learn as much as you possibly can about
the franchise you plan to invest with -
before you make your investment. This
includes meeting people face to face.
Tip 7
As you review franchise information, do
you find it easy to understand and
comfortable or confusing or unorganized?
Tip 8
Are the royalties fair? If you don’t know,
compare with with the royalties of similar
businesses.
Tip 9
Is franchising new to you? Don’t be afraid
to get help. Franchise Consultants can
help guide you so you can avoid common
mistakes.
