Franchising?
Franchising is an efficient method of distribution of goods and services. since
its rapid expansion in the Asia-Pacific region in the 1980s, the franchising sector of most countries has continued to grow and mature. Franchising is itself a provision of services to facilitate the distribution of products.
Franchising is the ‘cloning’ of a successful business concept, enabling relatively inexperienced investors to operate under the umbrella of an established, proven system.
DEFiNitioN
Franchising: an agreement under which the franchisor grants exclusive rights to the franchisee for distribution and/or sale of the service or product, in return for payment and conformance to quality standards.
Under a franchise agreement the owner, producer or distributor of a service or product grants exclusive rights to an individual for the local distribution and/or

sale of the service or product, and in return receives some form of payment and conformance to quality standards.
It makes a big contribution to the Australian economy. We estimate it contributes about $144 billion to the Australian economy.
There are about 1100 or 1200 systems in Australia. By franchise systems we mean McDonald’s is a system, Eagle Boys Pizzas is a system. And within those systems there’s about 79,000 franchise units, so they’re the individually owned and operated units.
The common features of franchising is that the franchisor provides the know-how, trademarks, business support, training and development, and often trading area exclusivity in return for royalties (ongoing fees), other payments or compliance to rules and standards. Not all these characteristics need to be present for a business arrangement to be regarded as a franchise, however.
Australia is often coined the ‘franchise capital of the world’, because we’ve got a lot of franchising activity, a lot of franchise systems given the size

of our population. However, when you compare that with the United States we’re dwarfed by a large nation like that. If you look at other nations which have got similar populations, say Canada, we certainly have more franchising activity here, and the UK.
Franchising is growing steadily all around the world. In Asia we’ll see a lot more soon, but at this stage Australia has a lot more franchises than say China or India, which of course have enormous populations.
Virtually anything can be franchised, and virtually anything is franchised. The most common are retail franchises and we tend to think typically of fast food as being the leader in that sector, but other types of retailing can be franchised – we have clothing, beauty therapy, fitness centres and many more.
The service sector is a growing area too, so you have home services such as dog-washing, car washing, business support services like bookkeeping franchises. Now we’re seeing professions being franchised – physiotherapy, psychology and so on. There’s very little that can’t actually be franchised.
Whilst the franchising sector covers
both service and retail industries, franchising itself is a service function. It can be argued that McDonald’s is in the business of franchising as well as that of fast food. Hamburgers are the tangible product with which consumers are concerned, but in addition, McDonald’s distributes the product through its franchise system, thus providing an intangible service to its thousands of franchisees.
chArActEristics oF thE FrANchisiNg ‘sErvicE’
The franchisor has a dual role of promoting and distributing its product (for example, fast food, accounting services, or lawn mowing) and administering the franchise system that supports its network of franchisees. The franchise system includes the brand name and intellectual property associated with the company as well as the start-up, ongoing and marketing assistance provided to franchisees and monitoring and quality control of the product. Under a franchising arrangement, the franchisee is the ‘customer’ of the franchisor and consumers are customers of the franchisee.
ADvANtAgEs AND DisADvANtAgEs oF FrANchisiNg
Whilst there are many benefits to the franchising concept, it is important to reflect on how franchising arrangements may affect both franchisees and franchisors. Below is a list of the main advantages and disadvantages of franchising from the point of view of both parties.
Advantages to the franchisor
• Used to increase the number of distribution units with a minimum capital investment required (and minimum risk to organisation).
• Manager (franchisee) of each unit is assumed to be highly motivated to maximise profits compared to an employee who has fixed salary and no personal investment in business.
• Locally owned franchise units provide access to local knowledge and become more readily acceptable to local communities.
• Franchisees are self–employed which reduces administrative and overhead expenditures for franchisor.
9
• Franchisees are contractually tied to the franchisor. They are often obliged to purchase equipment and/or supplies through the franchisor and to conduct business based on strictly developed business processes which gives franchisors some control over the operations of the organisation.
Disadvantages to the franchisor
• Franchisees only pay a percentage of profits to franchisor, which means that less profits go to the company than if the unit was company–owned.
• As franchisees are NOT employees it may be difficult to exercise tight control over them.
• Difficult to ascertain the exact level of business activity franchisee is producing if franchisee does not declare true levels.
• Provided the franchisee is operating within the terms of the contract, the franchisor has very little ability to ensure the franchisee operates more efficiently or effectively (difficult to improve performance of franchised unit).
• Unable to quickly modify strategies to exploit new market opportunities.
• The franchisee’s desire for independence may inhibit information feedback and channels of communication.
• Franchises are unable to (easily) localise operations and give personal attention and service and still maintain standardised product and presentation needed to give customers a sense of reliability and dependability.
• Difficult to recruit ideal franchisees.
Advantages to the franchisee
• Franchisee enjoys running a small business but may have access to economies of scale of a large company.
• Access to ongoing training, proven and tested systems, and professional advice.
• Product has a known and accepted trade name thus reducing the need to build brand equity.
• Costs and research needed to set up business are reduced by the franchisor who assists with site
selection, training and sometimes financing.
• The above advantages reduce the risk of failure to the franchisee.
• Access to continuous training and development as well as results of research and development.
• Receipt of market research and information updates relevant to business operations.
• Sometimes have rights to an exclusive territory, which usually means that if a second unit is required nearby due to sales growth, the original franchisee has the first option to purchase it.
• Franchisee experiences these advantages with a high degree of independence.
Disadvantages to the franchisee
• Regulations and controls over the franchise due to the standardised nature of franchising, leaves the franchisee with little opportunity to create personal touches.
• The franchised unit suffers if the franchisor mismanages the business or creates ill feeling in the community.
• Franchisors who oblige the franchisee to purchase equipment, products or services, may unduly increase prices.
• The franchise might not be as successful as the franchisor indicated or the franchisor might cause the business to go into bankruptcy over which the franchisee has no control.
• The franchisor might sell the franchise organisation, resulting in uncertainty and change.
• As the franchise is usually a specialised business, environmental changes may leave the business unable to adopt and change accordingly.

Franchising offers the opportunity to be your own boss with the support and security of
an established business model.
However, being part of a franchise means you have to play by the rules of the system and you don’t have the same flexibility to make changes as an independent business does.
The mandatory Franchising Code of Conduct recognises that franchising success hinges on transparency, commitment and relationships.
In setting out the rights and obligations of both franchisors and franchisees, the Code acknowledges that the franchising relationship is a two-way street.
The Code also reflects the reality that like any relationship, it pays to start on the right foot, conflict needs to be dealt with and sometimes things can end unexpectedly.
PrE-ENtry trAiNiNg
The ACCC works to ensure franchise participants are aware of their rights and obligations under the Code.
Disputes can be reduced if prospective franchisees know their rights and obligations before they enter into a franchise agreement.
Since 2010, the ACCC has funded a free online pre-entry education program run by Griffith University.
The course has proven successful with more than 6,700 participants enrolled in the program.
Dr Michael schaper, Deputy chair, Australian competition and consumer commission
MAkiNg AN iNForMED DEcisioN
Whether it’s a franchise opportunity involving washing dogs, fixing computers or selling salad, the Franchising Code spells out some basic information requirements.
Franchisors have to provide you with a disclosure document containing financial information and details about the system.
This information allows you and your professional advisor to apply due diligence and make an informed decision about buying a franchise.
It also allows the franchisor to put all the requirements of the system on the table.
FrANchisE AgrEEMENt
The Code also requires franchisors to provide prospective franchisees with a copy of the franchise agreement – the contract that underpins each party’s rights and responsibilities.

LATEST NEWS FINANCIAL ADVICE FROM THE BANKS TOP LAWYERS’ ADVICE
FINANCING YOUR FRANCHISE
12
When an agreement is signed it becomes a legally binding contract between you and a franchisor. So, it is essential that you seek legal advice to explain what you are signing.
In fact, the Code requires you to provide a statement that you have sought independent legal, business or accounting advice. Alternatively, you can sign a statement that you have been told that this advice should be sought and have decided not to seek it.
tAkE A closEr look
When reviewing a disclosure document and the franchise agreement, pay close attention to:
• fees
• franchise territory
• site selection
• leasing arrangements
• training and support
• market expansion, and
• end of term arrangements.
DEAliNg With DisPutEs
The Code also deals with disputes. The Franchising Code states that parties should first try to resolve their dispute with each other.
If you can’t agree on an outcome within three weeks, the Code provides for mediation.
Mediation involves an informal negotiation between the parties facilitated by an independent third party.
Either party may refer a dispute to mediation. Once mediation is requested, it becomes mandatory for both sides to attend and to genuinely try to resolve the dispute.
The Office of the Franchising Mediation Adviser www.franchisingmediationadviser.com.au exists under the Code to provide a cost-effective dispute resolution service.
WhEN A FrANchisE ENDs
The Code requires a franchisor to inform a franchisee at least six months before the end of franchise agreement of its decision on whether or not to renew the agreement or enter into a new one.
The Code also spells out conditions around termination of the agreement.
For instance, if a franchisor wishes to terminate the franchise early because of a breach, they must give reasonable notice, say what needs to be done to fix it and allow reasonable time for this to occur. If a breach is fixed within this time, the franchisor will be unable to terminate the franchise on this ground.
gooD FAith
Recently, the Government introduced an obligation of good faith into the Code, which will apply from 1 January 2015. Fundamentally, good faith will require both parties to a franchise agreement to remain loyal to the contract they have entered into.
Acting for an ulterior purpose, or in a way that undermines or denies the other party the benefits of the contract, are examples of conduct that may qualify as bad faith. While good faith requires you to have regard to the rights and interests of the other party, it does not prevent you from acting in your own legitimate commercial interests. There is likely to be some uncertainty around the meaning of good faith in the franchising context until it is clarified further through the courts.
ENForciNg thE coDE
The Code has the full force of the law. The ACCC is responsible for enforcing the Code and has the power to investigate and prosecute breaches.
From 1 January 2015, the ACCC will have new powers to issue infringement
notices of $8,500 for body corporates (otherwise $1,700) and seek penalties up to $51,000 in the Federal Court for serious breaches of the Code.
These changes are likely to go unnoticed by franchisors and franchisees who do the right thing. However, the new powers will play an important role in achieving compliance with the Code.
Infringement notices will allow us to move swiftly to deal with what we believe to be breaches of the Code, while the court penalties will provide more teeth in deterring rogue operators.
While there will not be a moratorium period, we will apply our discretion in line with our Compliance and Enforcement Policy in deciding whether to take enforcement action.
As always, we will take a common sense approach to the use of our regulatory powers.
The ACCC will focus on particularly serious conduct, including breaches of the key pillars of the revised Code.
This will include failure to act in good faith, failure to provide a disclosure document, refusal to attend mediation and unlawful termination of a franchise agreement.

Franchising
selecting the right franchise for a franchisee can be daunting and even after significant
research there is a leap of faith by the franchisee that they have chosen a franchise system which will meet their expectations and provide a secure financial return.
Engaging your advisors early in the selection process will assist to minimise the risk. Your accountant and lawyer can assess the financial and legal risks and give you objective feedback so you can make an informed decision.
Seeking advice from a franchise specialist is the key.

NEW FrANchisE coDE chANgEs 2015:
As a result of the 2014 review of the Franchise Code
of Conduct by the Federal Government a number of
changes come into effect as from 1st January 2015.
The new Code will impact on Franchise Agreements
entered into after the 1st October 1998. Franchisors
are given a grace period to revise and update their
Disclosure Documents by the 31st October 2015.

reference to the New Code under the Competition & Consumer (Industry Codes – Franchising) 2014.
kEy DocuMENts:
The documents supplied as from 1 January 2015 will be:
• The New Information Statement to prospective franchisee highlighting risks and rewards of becoming a franchisee;
• A copy of the Franchising Code of Conduct;
• A Disclosure Document with attached supporting documents, lease and or license agreements;
• The proposed Franchise Agreement; and
• Clause 10 Legal, Business Advisor and Accountants advice certificates.
There is no substitute for a franchisee reading the documents and becoming familiar with them.
It is your contract setting out your key rights and obligations.
It is one thing to enter into a franchise relationship but it is not easy to walk away, so you really need to know not only the entry costs and ongoing obligations, but also the exit costs rights and obligations. Franchise agreements with Disclosure Documents are typically 50 to 100 pages and can be difficult to follow. They may appear to be in standard form; however the devil will always be in the detail.
There are numerous tricks and traps that an experienced franchise specialist will be able to identify. These could be in relation to financial obligations, minimum performance criteria, marketing, reporting, termination rights, right to assign and restraint provisions. All of these need to be carefully reviewed.
A franchise law specialist will focus on the important commercial and legal issues rather than recommend insignificant changes unlikely to be accepted by the franchisor or their legal advisors.
thE DisclosurE DocuMENt
The Disclosure Document must be in the form prescribed under Annexure 1 of the Code and set out the required material information, to assist a franchisee to make an informed decision.
The Disclosure Document sets out information such as:
a) The name of the franchisor, its associates and business experience of its directors and associates.
b) Any legal action taken against the franchisor or its directors.
c) Details of past and existing franchisees.
d) If the franchisor is a master franchisor similar information to (a) and (b) above.
e) Territory and Site selection policy.
f) Supply requirements including information about rebates or on-line sales restrictions.
g) Use of marketing and co-operative funds. A contentious area and the cause of much dispute which has been tightened up under the New Code.
h) Financing (if any) offered by the franchisor on an associate or agent including detail of any necessary working capital requirements or debt to equity ratio to be maintained.
i) The financial report of the franchisor company for each of the last two completed financial years together
with a statement signed by a director of solvency.
j) End of franchise term arrangements that is whether the Franchise Term will be extended and if so on what conditions.
k) Earnings information, of the franchised business, or franchise system.
The summary of the obligations of the franchisor and franchisee in the franchise agreement have now been removed under the New Code from the Disclosure Document.
NEW coDE 1 JANuAry 2015
Franchisors should ensure that the information is accurate, and gives realistic estimates where specific costs cannot be fixed.
Franchisors have until 31 October 2015 to update the Disclosure Documents to the new form required however we recommend franchisors update as soon as possible in the first quarter of 2015 to ensure early compliance and familiarity with the Code changes.
The ACCC can impose fines for breach of the Code of $8,500 per breach, and fines up to $51,000 in the Federal Court.
17
Franchisor’s compliance and record keeping will be ever more important to avoid fines and prosecution by the ACCC.
Franchisors should not exaggerate or embellish information in a Disclosure Document. Franchisors should be conservative and avoid giving franchisees unrealistic expectations.
We have seen statements in marketing and disclosure documents that state “we are the fastest growing franchise network in the industry with hundreds of satisfied franchisees”. A statement such as this when the franchise is a new franchise system with only one or two franchisees is blatantly misleading.
The Disclosure Document should enable a franchisee to:
1. Assess the franchisor, its history and whether it is a reputable system, one where there is little litigation against it and only nominal movement of franchisees in and out of the system;
2. Ascertain the entry costs and ongoing costs to the franchisee to become a franchisee;
3. See the key financial or non financial obligations of the franchisee, such as training compliance with policies and procedures and marketing; and
4. Study the financial position of the franchisor;
DisclosurE ProcEss
Clause 8 of the Code requires that a franchisor must create a disclosure that complies with the Code in the form signed by the franchisor or its director or agent.
The franchisor must update the Disclosure Document within four months of each financial year with some limited exceptions.
Clause 9 requires the franchisor to give a prospective franchisee a copy of the Code, the Disclosure Document and a copy of the Franchise agreement in the form to be signed at least 14 days before the franchisee:
• Enters into a franchise agreement or agreement to enter into a franchise agreement; or
• Makes any non refundable payment to the franchisor.
Clause 9(3) now clarifies the position that franchisors do not need to go
through the disclosure process yet again, where there are negotiations and changes to the franchisee agreement within the 14 day disclosure review period.
Any representations, promises or statements made by the franchisor or their agent in the course of the negotiations leading up to entry into the franchise agreement should be set out in the Disclosure Document, and signed by the franchisor.
The franchisor may in some cases provide a ‘representations certificate’ or separate statement as part of the package of franchise documents, setting the additional promises and concessions that have been discussed and agreed to.
14 DAy DisclosurE:
• On receipt of the documents, the franchisee is required to sign a Certificate acknowledging receipt of the documents, which commences the 14 day disclosure period. Neither party can contract out of the 14 day disclosure period.
• The New Code has removed some unnecessary red tape, however improves the balance of rights and obligations between franchisor and franchisee.
cooliNg oFF:
Under the Franchise Code any money paid by a franchisee within the 14 day disclosure period is fully refundable. This includes a deposit or document fee. After 14 days that sum is non-refundable to the extent they are referred to in the Disclosure Document.
The 14 day disclosure period should not be confused with the 7 day cooling off period, which commences from the date the franchisee enters into the agreement or makes any payment under the franchise agreement (whichever event first occurs).
The cooling off period only applies in relation to a new agreement and does not apply to a renewal, extension or transfer of an existing agreement.
thE FrANchisE AgrEEMENt
This is your contract setting out the grant of rights and obligations. They
are generally weighted in favor of the franchisor who is granting the rights.
It is often assumed by franchisees that the franchisor’s obligations set out in the agreement are positive obligations, however most agreements will state the franchise ‘may not’ or ‘must’ do certain things. This is a subtle but important difference.
FEEs PAyABlE to thE FrANchisor
initial Fees – franchise fee
Franchisees are required to pay fees upon signing the franchise agreement – this is often called the ‘Franchise Fee’ or an ‘Establishment Fee’. There may also be other fees payable before the franchisee commences operation for specific services, such as a ‘Training Fee’ or ‘Technology or Admin support fee’. These fees must set out in the Disclosure Document.
Royalty on sales
The franchisee will pay an ongoing ‘Royalty’ or ‘License Fee’. The fee is typically paid monthly or weekly, either as a percentage of the franchisee’s gross sales or gross revenue.
One issue to bear in mind is that the Royalty is based on gross revenue, not gross or net profit so franchisees need to do their financial analysis and determine whether the business or system is financially viable. The issues to consider are:
1. Can the franchisee as an owner operator take a responsible market wage out of the business to cover their effort?
2. Will the franchise be able to pay off the interest or monies borrowed to acquire it and provide a return on investment to the franchisee over time?
3. Is the franchisors business, brand, products or services a long term offering or just a passing consumer fad?
4. Is there likely to be any capital growth over time in the business?
note
Franchisees should ensure they have adequate financial support from their own bookkeepers or accountants as franchisors generally do not provide that support.
18
Franchisees should prepare cash flow projections and monitor their business performance. Ultimately the success or failure of a franchisees business is up to you, the franchisee, not the franchisor!
tErM AND rENEWAl
Franchise agreements generally run for a fixed term such as five or ten years. Some franchise agreements provide an option to renew the agreement for a further term, provided that the franchisee is not currently in default of its obligations under the agreement. There may be other conditions and costs to renew such as a renewal fee and refurbishing or fit out costs which need to be covered.
The new franchise agreement would be the franchisor’s then standard form which may have different terms to the original agreement.
stANDArDs, PoliciEs AND ProcEDurEs AND thE oPErAtioNs MANuAl
The vast majority of franchise agreements include provisions requiring franchisees to comply with the
franchisor’s operations and systems manual.
These policies and procedures may change throughout the franchise term. The franchisee will be required to adopt those changes at their own cost. The new Code now restricts the franchisor imposing undisclosed capital expenditure on franchisees.
Franchisees should ask to review the Operations Manual before entering into the franchise agreement.
oPErAtiNg costs
In addition to the initial fees, a franchisee will need to fund its own staff and operational costs. Often estimates set out in the Disclosure Document are very broad range, and actual costs may be greater. The franchisee may also be required to fund a three month deposit or bank guarantee for the premises lease.
working Capital
Franchisors often underestimate the working capital requirements for franchisees therefore franchisees should prepare their own cash flow projections, and allow a sensible amount of working capital for the first year of operation.
sitEs AND tErritoriEs
Mobile service franchises are increasing in popularity due to their low entry cost with rights to work within defined territory – listed as a number of postcodes, or marked on a map attached to the agreement (with for example a 5km radius). The territory may be exclusive, so that neither the franchisor nor other franchisees can operate in the territory, giving the franchisee some protection from competition.
Retail franchises (such as cafes or gyms) are generally granted for a specific site with no territory although they may have right to a marketing territory.
Usually, any exclusivity will be conditional on the franchisee complying with its obligations and meeting its minimum performance criteria.
Franchisees should understand the rights associated with their territory, whether it is exclusive and if the franchisor has the right to alter the territory.
Many distribution, dealership and license arrangements do not grant exclusive rights at all.
19
MArkEtiNg AND co-oPErAtivE FuND
Most franchise systems have a marketing or co-operative fund established by the franchisor for the marketing of the business on behalf of the franchisees. Franchisees usually contribute to the fund monthly or weekly.
The Disclosure Document must set out information about the marketing fund. The marketing fund is for the franchise system as a whole.
The franchisor will not be required to spend any part of the fund marketing or an individual franchisee’s business.
In addition to contributions to the marketing fund, many franchise agreements require franchisees to market their business locally and may require a minimum per annum spend basis on a percentage of their turnover.
2015 FrANchisE coDE chANgEs to MArkEtiNg FuND
• Franchisors must now establish a separate marketing bank account.
• An annual vote is required of not less than 75 per cent of Australian franchises to avoid audit of the marketing fund.
• The franchisor must contribute equally to the marketing fund for its company owned stores (this does not extend to an associate of the franchisor company).
• The marketing fund can only be used for the purposes disclosed in the Disclosure Document and for marketing as agreed by a majority of franchisees.
• Franchisors can deduct reasonable administration or audit costs from the fund.
sAlE or trANsFEr oF A FrANchisE BusiNEss
Most franchise agreements will set out provisions that regulate a franchisee’s ability to sell their business and transfer the franchise rights.
If the franchisee wishes to sell, the franchisor will usually have first right of refusal to acquire the franchise. If that option is not taken up, the franchisor will still have a right to approve and consent to the new franchisee.
Under the Code, a franchisor must not unreasonably withhold its consent to a transfer of a franchise.
Reasonable circumstances for refusal might include the proposed transferee being unlikely to meet the financial obligations or failing to meet the training requirements. These are set out in the Code.
The franchisor may also impose a transfer fee on the existing franchise. That cost should be taken into account when the franchisee negotiates a sale price for the franchise.
END oF tErM oBligAtioNs
The end of term arrangements have altered greatly under the new Code. The consequences of not renewing or extending a Franchise Agreement by a franchisor under the new Code may now have a significant impact on the ability of a franchisor to enforce a non-compete or restraint provision in the Franchise Agreement.
Upon expiry or termination of the franchise agreement, the franchisee will usually be required to:
• Cease use of the trade marks;
• Return all documents and contractual information to the franchisor; and
• Transfer phone numbers to the franchisor.
2015 coDE chANgEs to END tErM ArrANgEMENts
• The franchisor must now give the franchisee not less than six months notice before the end of the term, if it intends to extend or renew the franchise agreement or not. This will trigger an election for the franchisor to offer the franchisee genuine compensation for the franchisee’s goodwill, if the franchisor does not extend the franchise term.
• If the franchisor offers reasonable compensation for the franchisee’s goodwill, the franchisor can then rely on and enforce the non-compete/restraint provisions against the franchisee.
• If the franchisor does not offer genuine compensation for goodwill to the franchisee, and does not extend the term, the franchisor cannot then
enforce its restraint of trade rights against the franchisee.
This is a significant issue for franchisors under the new Code and recognises the goodwill that has been developed over time by the franchisee.
The impact of what occurs at the end of the term needs to be carefully considered before entering into the agreement.
DisclosurE oF rEBAtEs AND lEAsE BENEFits
• Franchisors must disclose to franchisees if they receive rebates and if so, from whom, and whether the franchisor will provide any part of the rebate to the franchisee.
• Franchisors must disclose any lease incentives or financial benefit (such as a fit out contribution or rent free period) and name the company.
There is no obligation on the franchisor to give any part of the incentive or benefit to the franchisee.
Franchisees should note that a lease incentive or benefit from a landlord is not a rebate.
coNclusioN
Franchising has always involved elements of good faith which were implied at common law. Those obligations are now entrenched in the Code and they are mutual obligations. The intent of the Code is to ensure transparency by the franchisor and to balance the rights and obligations between franchisor and franchisee. At the end of the day, the devil is always in the detail. Therefore seeking expert advice will assist franchisees limit their risk and avoid dispute, so that both parties can focus on a productive and profitable working relationship.

Buying a franchise?
you are likely to consult a number of professional advisers – a banker, a lawyer,
an accountant and possibly other advisers - during the process of purchasing a franchise business. Each adviser has a significant role to play. this article addresses the accountant‘s role during that process.
Perhaps the most fundamental decision that you must make is whether you are suited to running a franchise business. Assuming that decision has been made, it then becomes very important for you to know how much you can borrow.
Your borrowing capacity will be affected by
• the cash that you can invest.
• the security you are able to offer (in most cases the only security that a bank will accept is a mortgage over a property).
• whether or not the franchise is accredited with one of the banks. (If a system is accredited by a bank, then the bank will lend some amount against the security of the business alone – in other words without requiring ‘bricks and mortar’ security. Banks will not usually do this if a system is not accredited). A relatively small number of systems – and usually the larger franchise systems – are accredited with banks.
• The type of finance involved – for example, loans, leases, hire purchase etc.
An accountant will be able to help you determine what your borrowing capacity is, so I suggest you talk to your accountant about your plans at an early stage. It is also a good idea to talk to your banker
tim kilham, Director, lanyon Partners chartered Accountants
HOw An ACCOUnTAnT CAn HELP
about your borrowing capacity as soon as you
decide you are going to buy a franchise. Your banker
can, at an early stage, only give you an opinion in
principle – the final lending decision will of course be
dependent on the actual franchise you purchase –
but you need to know your financial parameters as
you set out in search of a franchise.
Your next step is to identify a potential business
for you to purchase. At any time there are literally
thousands of franchise businesses available for
purchase across a wide range of industries, from
existing businesses to green field (new) sites, from
businesses costing tens of thousands of dollars to
businesses costing millions of dollars, from highly
profitable businesses to lossmaking businesses.
While it might be useful to talk to your accountant
during the process of identifying a potential
business, it is generally not an accountant’s role to
advise on which business to purchase until it comes
down to evaluating a particular business.

iDENtiFyiNg & EvAluAtiNg thE right BusiNEss
I do suggest that you, as quickly as possible, narrow down your search, identify one potential business and then focus on and evaluate that one business. If it turns out to be not the right business for you, then find another business to evaluate. My advice is not to try to compare and evaluate two or three or more businesses at the same time. It is an almost impossible exercise – each business is unique and in my experience trying to evaluate and compare too many businesses at one time simply leads to ‘paralysis by analysis’.
Your accountant has a major role to play once you have identified a particular franchise you wish to acquire and due diligence needs to be undertaken (due diligence is simply the evaluation of a business).
From a financial perspective, you need to determine whether the business is going to return sufficient profit to justify the purchase price (or, put another way, what price you should offer for the business given the level of profit you expect it to achieve). An accountant
will have the skills to help you with this analysis. I strongly recommend that you use an accountant who has a detailed knowledge of the franchise industry and franchise regulations – the skills required to evaluate and advise on the purchase of a franchise business are not the same as the skills required for a non-franchise business. To use a medical analogy, there are times you see a general practitioner and there are times it is better to see a specialist. To obtain proper franchising advice you should use an accountant that specialises in franchising.
Assuming you are buying an existing franchise, you should, before you see your accountant, gather as much financial information as possible about the franchise. Your accountant will give you a list of information you need to obtain. It will include historical financial statements and income tax returns, current financial information, copy of premises lease (if applicable), internal management reports, franchisor reports, etc., etc. Your accountant will also need the current Disclosure Document and the relevant Franchise Agreement (the current Franchise Agreement if the current franchise is to be assigned to
you or the new Franchise Agreement if a new franchise is to be entered into).
As I stated above, the purpose of the financial evaluation is to determine whether to purchase the business and, if so, how much to pay. This decision must be based on what profit the business will make when you, the new owner, are operating it. This profit can only be determined by preparing budgets for the next few years – preferably detailed monthly budgets for the first twelve months and perhaps less detailed budgets for the next few years. Your accountant will be able to help you prepare the budgets.
BuDgEt PrEPArAtioN
The importance of preparing budgets cannot be overstated – how can you possibly decide whether or not to buy a business if you do not know what profit you expect the business to make?
Interestingly, nearly all the information that you obtain about the existing business will be historical information – information about the past performance of the business. However, your goal is to determine what profit the business will make in future. Historical information
22
is usually an important determinant in working out future profits. However, great care must be taken to ensure that changes in circumstances – be they a financial crisis, greater competition, or other circumstances – are built into the financial projections. The past is usually a reliable guide to the future but where it is not great care must be taken. That is why budgets are so important.
Depending on whether or not the franchise involves the holding of significant stock and the selling of items on credit, it may be necessary to prepare both profit and loss budgets and cash budgets. A business can make a profit but not have any cash. This happens, for example, when an item is sold on credit. The profit is usually recognised in financial statements when the item is sold, but the cash is not received until the debtor pays you 30 or 60 days later – and what happens if the debtor never pays you? It will therefore often be necessary to prepare both profit and loss and cash budgets. Banks are very interested in cash budgets because you need cash to pay back their loans.
The price you should be prepared to pay for your franchise business is based on two main factors:
• the profit you expect to make; and
• the risk involved in the business.
The lower the risk, the higher the price you should be prepared to pay. For example if you expect the profit of the
business to be $90,000 then, as an example, you might pay $180,000 (two times earnings) for a high risk business, but $360,000 (four times earnings) for a low risk business. An experienced franchise accountant will have considerable training and experience in valuing businesses – and particularly franchise businesses – and will help you determine what a fair price for the business is. You should understand, though, that valuing a business is an art not a science, and therefore that the value of a business is a matter of opinion and not a matter of fact. If you ask a number of accountants to value a business you will get a number of differing valuations.
Having determined what you think is a fair price (or price range) for the business, it is at this stage that you negotiate with the franchisee – with the help of your accountant if necessary – to try to arrive at a mutually agreeable price.
If for whatever reason you decide not to proceed with the purchase, now is the time to choose another business and start the process all over again – but it will be much easier this time because you have been through the process before!
BusiNEss structurE
When you have chosen a business to purchase, your accountant will help you determine the most appropriate business structure. Most people when
buying a business want to:
• keep the structure simple, low cost and easy to operate.
• pay as little income tax as possible on the profits.
• pay as little capital gains tax as possible on sale of the business.
• have flexibility in distributing profits.
• protect their assets in the event that the business gets into financial trouble (nobody ever buys a business expecting to get into financial trouble, but it happens – often).
The structures available for owning the franchise business include sole proprietorship (individual ownership), partnership between one or more people or entities, a company, and a trust (there are many different types of trusts). Sometimes the business structure involves the use of more than one of these entities – for example, a company and a trust.
Your accountant will advise on the most appropriate structure. A wide range of factors will affect the structure – including your personal and family circumstances, the amount of borrowings, other assets that you have, and which of the objectives listed above are most important to you. For example, the desire for a simple, low cost and easy to operate business structure is not necessarily compatible with having a structure that also achieves the best protection of your assets in the event of financial trouble.
Your accountant will help you set up your chosen structure and can then help with all the necessary registrations – which might include (and you had better start familiarising yourself with these acronyms!) PAYGI, PAYGW, TFN, ABN, ACN, SGC…… and a few more.
And with that you are up and running your business. Your accountant will be able to provide ongoing strategic, tax and business advice to help you grow, manage and create your wealth…. but that is another story and another article.

leasing considerations
site selection and lease negotiations are one of the most critical tasks facing a
new franchisee. this is because rent is, in most cases, the greatest fixed expense of a franchised business.
Whilst site selection is often at the franchisor’s discretion, the franchisee is typically required to accept the choice, but bear the risk of doing so. In the case where the franchisee selects the franchise site, they must often negotiate (or accept) a complex lease or sublease. Careful consideration should be given to all issues surrounding the right to occupy the business premises by the franchisee, which will be contained in the franchise agreement as well as lease or licence or sub-lease.
gENErAl lEAsiNg issuEs to BE coNsiDErED
1. who is the tenant?
Legally, one of the most important issues for a franchisee is having the rights to occupy the premises, which have been approved by the franchisor for operation of their franchise business. In the vast majority of cases, the franchisor will have policies and procedures in relation to whether it will take the head lease as the tenant. Some franchisors prefer to take on the lease and licence the premises to a franchisee, others ensure that all of the lease obligations fall directly on the franchisee.
Jane garber-rosenzweig, Principal, gable lawyers
chAPtEr 5
wHEn bUyinG A FRAnCHisE
If the franchisor is the tenant (and licenses the premises to the franchisee), the franchisee must consider the following issues:
a. Upon termination or expiration of the franchise agreement, the franchisor is able to terminate the licence to occupy and regain possession of the premises.
b. Landlord’s consent to licensing the franchisee to occupy the premises is required, unless such consent has been drafted into the original lease between the landlord and the franchisor.
c. Normally, the landlord will want to see a copy of the franchise agreement before they agree to consent to a licence.
d. In most cases, it is standard that all lease obligations are passed on to the franchisee through the licence agreement.
e. The franchisor will be requiring that the franchisee provides the bank guarantee/security deposit for the landlord and takes out public liability and other relevant (and lease imposed) insurances.
Even if the franchisor is the tenant under the lease, it is advisable that the franchisee pays rent and outgoings directly to the landlord or the landlord’s agent to avoid the situation that occurred with many Kleins Jewellers stores. In this case, franchisees paid rent and outgoings to the franchisor, and the franchisor then paid the required funds to respective landlords. Unfortunately, when the franchisor, Kleins Jewellers, went into administration, the lease

payments made to the franchisor by each franchisee were not recoverable, and as the landlords did not receive their payments, the franchisees were in breach of their leases, allowing the landlords to terminate the franchisees’ rights to occupy.
If the franchisee is the tenant, then:
• The franchisee will be responsible for the payment of the security bond/bank guarantee directly to the landlord, and must also maintain the relevant insurances.
• The franchisee must make good the premises at the end of the lease, which can be a very expensive exercise.
• All lease obligations are imposed directly on the franchisee.
2. Term of the lease and renewals
The duration of the lease should ideally align with the duration of the franchise agreement. In relation to the renewal of lease, the franchisee should consider at the outset all the conditions of lease renewal, particularly in terms of rent increases or renovation requirements and whether the option to renew is exercisable by the franchisee or the franchisor.
3. Costs of lease
Main leasing costs will include monthly rent and outgoings payments. Franchisees should budget for these expenses. Further, consideration needs to be given to any possible rent increases, how often such increases occur and what formula, if any, do they follow. For example, the lease could state that rent will be increased by CPI annually on the anniversary of the commencement date and then reviewed to market rent upon renewal of the lease.
Franchisees should also try and negotiate incentives or contributions by the landlord to either the fit out costs or by way of reduction of rent for a period of time from the commencement date. These negotiations are often undertaken by the franchisor on behalf of its franchisees with landlords around the country.
4. Fit out
Fit out of the premises can be costly. Franchisees should research the potential costs of fit out and whose responsibility will be to fit out the business premises. However, whether the franchisor undertakes it and charges the total to the franchisee or
the franchisee employs independent contractors to perform the works, the fit out plans must generally be approved by the franchisor.
One question that is often overlooked is who owns the fit out at the expiration or termination of the franchise agreement and/or the lease. The other important question to ask will be whose responsibility and at whose cost will the premises need to be restored to their original form when the franchisee’s rights to run the franchise business terminate or expire.
5. Permitted use
A franchisee should ensure that the permitted use stated in the lease allows the sale of the products and services to be provided by the franchised business.
6. Opening hours
Especially in the shopping centres, franchisees must ensure that the hours of operation stated in the lease correspond to the hours the franchisee is expected to be open for business by the franchisor. Further, the franchisee should ensure that they have access to the premises after hours.
7. Relocation
Most leases these days will contain
26
27
a relocation clause. However, the franchisee must ensure that the landlord will only have the right to relocate or terminate the lease as a result of certain conditions taking place. The relocated premises are to be substantially the same as the original premises.
8. Territory
The franchisees should check the location of their premises and find out whether the franchise agreement gives them any exclusive rights to a particular geographic area surrounding their business premises.
9. Assignment
The assignment clause of the lease should be closely examined to determine whether the franchisee has the right to assign the lease in the future in the event that the franchisee chooses to sell their business, and if so, what conditions will be imposed on the franchisee before such assignment can take place.
rEtAil lEAsiNg
In Australia, there is no uniform legislation at the federal level regulating the relationship between a landlord and a tenant in relation to commercial and retail premises. Retail leasing legislation is the responsibility of State and Territory
governments and varies in each State and Territory.
The current relevant legislation for each State and Territory is as follows:
• Victoria - Retail Leases Act 2003
• New South Wales - Retail Leases Act 1994
• Australian Capital Territory - Leases (Commercial and Retail) Act 2001
• Queensland - Retail Shop Leases Act 1994
• South Australia - Retail and Commercial Leases Act 1995
• Western Australia - Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Agreements Act 1985
• Tasmania - Fair Trading (Code of Practice for Retail Tenancies) Regulations 1998
• Northern Territory - Business Tenancies (Fair Dealings) Act 2003
One of the main obligations imposed by the retail leasing legislation on landlords is provision of the Disclosure Statement by the landlord to the tenant, in a similar fashion as the franchisor provides its franchisees with the Disclosure Document prescribed by the Franchising Code of Conduct. Retail leasing legislation further provides numerous
avenues of protection for the tenants in relation to the conditions contained in the retail lease.
NEW AccouNtiNg stANDArDs
Proposed changes to the Australian Accounting Standards, which are to be finalised by beginning of 2015, would require businesses to record on their balance sheet any leased property or equipment, such as office space or photocopiers. This will affect many areas for franchisees including lending options and getting finance, which will become even tougher with this proposed change.
FiNAl NotEs
All potential franchisees should ensure that the right advisers are engaged to assist with leasing and franchise documents, so that any issues which could be prevented are dealt with prior to agreements being signed.

is Franchising
the focus of this chapter is on you, as a
potential franchisee. it is not about which
franchise is best to buy or what to watch
out for when buying a franchise – it’s about
whether franchising is right for you.
Before we can examine your fit for franchising, you
need to understand that there are many types of
franchise models and even within the same industry
you can come across a variety of approaches
to franchising as franchisors have designed
their commercial and legal models to fit specific
strategies or objectives. However we can categorise
franchises into three broad types ……and your fit is
likely to change based on the type of franchise you
are considering.

RiGHT FOR ME?
suB FrANchisEs
Sub franchises are the most common type of franchises in Australia. Here you have a direct contractual relationship with the franchisor to operate a site or territory under their brand and system. Usually it is a single site or territory but may also involve multiple sites or territories.
New entrants to the franchise market most often purchase a sub franchise as the size of the business, the money needed to fund and operate it and the labour to support it fit within the means of the average person coming out of employed roles and starting a business for the first time.
The franchisors usually provide initial and ongoing training to new franchisees as well as support in setting up the new business or site. Sometimes they
29
chAPtEr 6
even involve the franchisor providing a complete ‘turnkey package’ where they have found the site, conducted the fitout and set everything up so all you have to do is pay the money, attend training and get ready to start trading.
ArEA FrANchisEs
Area franchises can also be known as area development or franchise development arrangements. Here, the franchisor grants the rights to a franchisee to develop and operate a larger territory or series of sites. It may be the rights to develop stores or provide services across, for example, all of New South Wales or large parts of Australia.
These franchisors may be international businesses looking to have one or a small number of franchise partners in the Australian market or it could be a domestic franchisor that does not want to or does not have the financial resources to operate a franchise network with a large number of franchisees. Either way, the franchisee in this sort of arrangement will typically be a more experienced business person or group with the financial and
marketing resources to run a larger business and work to a series of agreed performance milestones for growth or sales performance of the business. It is also common in these arrangements for franchisees to be rewarded with a share of profits or some buy out formula if they have created the agreed value in the network before exiting.
MAstEr FrANchisEs
The master franchisee is the ‘middle man’ between the franchisor and sub franchisees.
Unlike the sub franchise model where the franchisee has a direct relationship with the franchisor, under the master franchise model their relationship is with the master franchisee.
The master franchisee has purchased the rights to develop, operate and provide services to a series of sub franchisees within an agreed area. In Australia, master franchises are most often divided along State lines, so you have a master franchisee for Victoria, another for Queensland, another for New South Wales etc. They sell the franchises in their area and they support the franchisees. You may even need
to buy your stock from them. In effect, they become your franchisor and your contract is directly with them.
uNDErstANDiNg WhAt you ArE gEttiNg iNto
In all forms of franchise models you are entering into a fixed term contract to develop and operate a business under the brand and systems determined by your franchisor. They have a model, a product or service range and a brand that has usually been tested in the market and they have worked out the best practices and success factors to make a site or territory viable.
You are buying access to their intellectual property and business systems and the franchise agreements will bind you to follow their systems and rules and they may even require you to achieve minimum levels of sales or performance standards. The upside for you is the prospect of a more successful business than if you started one yourself, the training and support that comes with being part of a group and the potential for capital gains when you sell your business later on. The brand and the success of other franchisees
30
has the ability to add a premium to the sale price.
Most franchisees buy a franchise because they want to make money. They want to establish a strong cashflow that can support their wages and savings plans and they want to sell their business at a price higher than what they bought it for, so money and wealth creation is a driver in 99 per cent of cases.
Most franchisors want you to make money. When you make money, so do they. Their revenue streams are usually derived from royalties you pay them, products or services you sell for them and fees you pay on the expansion or eventual sale of your business. So if you are shy about making money or talking about money, then this is one of the first things you need to overcome to be a successful franchisee.
is FrANchisiNg right For you? – gENErAl critEriA
Whether you are looking to buy a shop based franchise, a service based franchise or a mobile style franchise there are some common requirements that you must acknowledge and accept if you are to enjoy working in your franchised business and being part of a franchised group.
• Recognise that a franchise is a business. It is not just a job.
• Recognise that the franchise is your business. Therefore it is your primary responsibility to make it work.
• Know what you enjoy and what you don’t. Find a franchise that enables what you enjoy and trains or supports you in what you don’t.
• Understand what your personal expenses and investment criteria are. Starting a business can require significant investment outlays and some franchises generate cashflow faster and stronger than others. If you do not have sufficient money to pay for the franchise and support it during the startup period then you will eat into your lifestyle and home expenses and impact your quality of life or family situation. Make sure you have extra money or an alternate income to fall back on.
• Think about your home or family situation. Does your family support your decision to start or buy a business and do you all understand the risks and requirements of being in business and part of a franchised group?
• You need to believe in the power of the brand and be proud to represent that brand and wear their uniforms.
• You need to be customer focused and recognise sometimes your customers are also the same customers for other franchisees as well (eg McDonalds customers dine at multiple McDonalds outlets).
• If your franchise requires you to sell products, you need to be a proactive and effective sales person, not just sit in your office or store waiting for customers to arrive.
• You need to be a team player and work collaboratively with your franchisor and other franchisees.
• You need to be prepared to follow directions, systems and group requirements.
• You need to be trainable and open to learning and following specific procedures.
• You need to be focused and keep focused on your business and your role in that business.
• If your business requires staff, you need to be able to attract, train, manage and motivate your staff.
is FrANchisiNg right For you uNDEr A suB FrANchisE MoDEl?
The key things under a sub franchise model are to have the sustained motivation to develop the business, sufficient money to do it properly and consistently without having to dip into daily lifestyle or home budgets and also being the type of person that can work independently but also follow systems and rules. If you want to reinvent the franchise, the product range, the pricing or company policies then you are best to set up your own business and not join a franchise. Franchises thrive on the power of the group providing consistency of service and quality
standards as well as the power of group branding and marketing. You can run your own business in a structured and supported environment but you are tied into the culture of ‘we all do it this way’. In most cases that is the safest approach anyway as it is the proven business method and it is really what you are paying for, access to brand, products, suppliers and best practice procedures.
is FrANchisiNg right For you uNDEr AN ArEA FrANchisE MoDEl?
To be a successful area franchisee you need significantly more experience, resources and financial depth than a typical sub franchise. You are taking on a larger business and usually a tight set of business development targets such as sales performance, rollout of a certain number of stores or operators within a specific period etc.
Your industry knowledge and business acumen will be critical as well as planning and team management skills.
Often, area franchisees are partnerships or small companies with a mix of people with specific backgrounds such as marketing, sales, retailing, franchise development and/or finance. Unless you have come from an external role or corporate position that encompasses many of these skill groups, it may be difficult to meet the criteria to qualify as an area franchisee. However, if you are serious about running a larger business you may always team up with colleagues or family to assemble the small team needed to drive and support this style of franchise but it is usually a big stretch for a first time business owner.
is FrANchisiNg right For you uNDEr A MAstEr FrANchisE MoDEl?
This scenario has two parts:
1. Would you make a good master franchisee yourself? and
2. Is being the sub franchisee of a master franchisee right for you?
Master franchising is similar to area franchising in that you are usually developing a larger area or team and
31
your contract requires you to sell a certain number of sub franchises and/or product within a specific timeframe. In turn this requires different management skill sets and more money to purchase and operate. The financial returns can be very good but usually the returns eventuate in the medium to longer term so if you don’t have a lot of money or need faster returns then master franchising is probably not the best option for you.
Being the sub franchisee to a master franchisee comes with many of the considerations outlined above for being a normal sub franchisee. There are overarching rules for the entire franchise brand and group and then there are local rules and terms that are unique to the master franchisees requirements.
A good master franchisee can provide strong and localised support for the sub franchisees in their network. A bad
master franchisee can adversely affect your business so the quality of your master franchisee, your relationship with them and how they are supported or governed by the head franchisor will all influence your success and enjoyment of your business with them. The key with being a sub franchisee under a master is to respect their role, treat them like your franchisor but also keep an eye on how other parts of the group are going to make sure you are getting the best quality and level of support possible. If you are not, you need to be the sort of person that is prepared to try and make it work with the master franchisee but ultimately if it cannot, then be prepared to go over their head for the sake of the brand and your local businesses.
FiNAl WorD
Ultimately, franchising is a business and it is your business. To get the most out of being part of a franchised group you
need to bring your energy, resources and team mindset to the group. You own a standalone business but you share a brand and business system and the same set of procedures and rules govern everyone in the group. This structure, consistency and best practice can create a lot of financial value for you and your fellow franchisees but at the end of the day any business requires sustained effort, good management, ongoing marketing and superior customer experience. Franchising will be a good choice for you if you recognise these factors and can enhance them by leveraging the knowledge and resources of your franchise group.

franchises but rather they award them to suitably-qualified individuals. Therefore, it is not just the would-be franchisee that is doing some due diligence - the franchisor is also engaged in the same process.
DuE DiligENcE – A NEcEssity?
People often think that buying a franchise needs little or no due diligence based on the fact that they are acquiring a brand that has probably been around for many years - as such, the longevity of the franchise speaks for itself. To some extent that argument may be true, but it certainly does not address the suitability of both parties to work together in a franchisee-franchisor relationship.
So, what is this mysterious thing called due diligence? First, let’s say that it is not mysterious but just a simple and basically common sense approach to acquiring a business. Even if you think you know a brand very well - maybe
you pass one or more outlets on a daily basis; maybe you know a customer of the franchise that you are pursuing - however do you really know what’s going on behind the scene? That’s what due diligence is going to reveal - the big picture.
Because a franchise usually represents an established brand, it means that they have accumulated a wealth of experience and history. The majority of franchisors are more than ready to share that history with prospective franchisees. As a prospective franchisee, you need to acquire that information and to carefully review it. In many jurisdictions the information comes in the form of what is known as a disclosure document. These documents take on different forms in different countries, but all are designed to pass on some very specific information about a franchise in order that prospective franchisees can become well-informed before they make a decision to move forward.
If you are seriously reviewing the background of a franchise, then a standard approach would be to request the disclosure document. If the franchisor says that they have no such document, then it is important to check with your local regulators to ascertain if a disclosure document is mandatory in your area. If it is and the franchisor does not have one, then they are operating outside of the regulations and, naturally, you should apply caution in any dealings with them.
The disclosure document, as we have said, contains a wealth of information and is not usually a five minute read. Be prepared to take time to review and digest the contents carefully. This document is often the basis for a prospective franchisee to move forward or not. The document will provide you with specific history of the franchise and the management that you will be interacting with if you go forward. It will provide you with a detailed analysis of the costs, both upfront and ongoing.
36
Disclosure documents are designed to impart both current information about the franchise, often in the form of financial statements of the franchisor, as well as historical data such as details of existing and past franchisees. This latter item can often be a great source of valuable information, especially if there are an abnormal number of franchisees that show as having left the system. If that is the case, you will certainly want to pursue the reasons behind such a turnover.
Franchise disclosure documents also contain a copy of the franchise agreement. If both parties ultimately agree that they wish to move forward, this is the document that will be signed and will govern the relationship between the parties. As a proactive franchisee, you need to read and understand the document. In some cases this may well require the engagement of a professional advisor to work through some of the details with you.
DiscovEry DAys
Most franchisors also offer additional due diligence opportunities that are also an essential part of the review process. One core item is participating in a Discovery Day type event. These functions vary greatly from franchisor to franchisor, often depending on the underlying type of business that the franchise covers. Some Discovery
Days involve your participation in travelling to the franchisor’s location to be immersed in how their franchise works. This is naturally an important aspect of reviewing what works best for you and the franchisor. Some Discovery Days also come in the form of webinars, whereby you don’t need to undertake any travel and can participate in an interactive review of the franchise from your location. Whether travel is involved or not, you must factor in the appropriate amount of time, and sometimes cost, to fully engage in this type of due diligence investigation.
Talking, and often meeting with a franchisor, and reading their detailed disclosure material is a must in any review process. It will take time and there are few, if any, shortcuts that should be taken in this regard.
This is also true of probably the most important part of your franchise selection – talking with existing franchisees. To fully understand a franchise and the day-to-day operations of the business, it is not good enough to be a customer or pass by the location, as we have said - you have to see what is behind the scene. The best and most revealing aspect of your due diligence will come in the form of franchisee validation. This is a process whereby the franchisor will, at a point when they are also comfortable with the prospective
franchisee, introduce that person to their franchisees.
This then becomes an opportunity for the prospective franchisee to really see and hear how the business operates on a day-to-day basis. It is not only understanding the business operation, as much of that will have been covered in the franchise literature and Discovery Day, but also delving into the support mechanism that exists for the franchisee from the franchisor. Much will probably have been discussed about this element of the franchise, but it is not until there is a discussion with a fully active franchisee that the full extent of that support becomes clear.
In many franchises the support element is the deciding factor as to whether it is an appropriate franchise or not. A franchise, as we have said, is a proven and established system - these things are well known and documented. What lies behind the façade in terms of support and involvement with franchisees is a crucial part of due diligence.
No matter how well you think you know a franchise from their outward appearance, if you are seriously pursuing that franchise then you must dig below the surface and conduct a thorough due diligence operation to satisfy yourself that what you see actually represents the true picture. For many people acquiring a franchise is a life-changing occurrence.
Many franchisees were formerly corporate executives, and making the transition to entrepreneurship and self-employment is often a quantum leap - clearly not something that can be rushed. When you are awarded a franchise, it is not for a year or two - but hopefully for many, many years - so investing in your future demands that you devote the appropriate time at the outset - there are no shortcuts or instant gratification to due diligence.

Whether it is a franchise or an independent small business, having a long-term plan on how and when you will exit the business is the best way to ensure that you are in control of the process, rather than letting the process control you.
There are risks involved in going into business for yourself, and a healhy awareness of these risks was famously immortalised by country singer Kenny Rogers in 80’s hit song The Gambler:
Jason gehrke, Director, Franchise Advisory centre
for franchisees
chAPtEr 8
39
“You’ve got to know when to hold them, know
when to fold them, know when to walk away,
and know when to run.”
Although Rogers was singing about poker, the principal of being prepared in advance to know when it’s time to exit applies to any business and to any business owner.
Unfortunately, new franchisees are so caught-up in the excitement of buying their franchise and the hundreds of details involved in getting started on the way in that they give little or no thought to planning for the way out.
Take for example, the person who is made redundant from their job, and who decides to change their life by transitioning from worker to boss by buying a franchise.
40
Unfortunately the redundancy package isn’t so large that the person can afford to search indefinitely for the perfect franchise before their cash reserves run dry, so they quickly decide on a franchise based on what they think they will enjoy doing, and move to finalise the arrangement with the franchisor.
Commonly, the undue haste of a potential franchisee – particularly one who is not currently employed – can lead to fundamental due diligence factors being overlooked.
These fundamental factors can include failing to prepare a business plan that demonstrates the viability of the enterprise, and failing to get advice about the franchise agreement and business model.
The consequences of failing to prepare a business plan can be fatal to a business, and catastrophic to the investment a franchisee makes in it.
The reason is simple. A universal law of business is that there are only two ways of making money in any business. These are profits on the way through, and capital gains on the way out.
The only problem with this universal law is that there are no guarantees of either profits or capital gains, and one (capital gains) is almost always a direct function of the other (profits). In other words, businesses that have increasing profits are more likely to be sold for a capital gain than businesses with declining profits.
(In some rare circumstances in the IT world, businesses that have never made a profit sometimes sell for a significant capital gain, but this is usually because of the patents linked to their technology innovations, not because their business model actually works).
Because of the relationship between capital gains and profits, anyone buying a business must have a plan to grow those profits, and (like the words of the song) know when it is time to move on.
But moving on is easier said than done. To find a buyer for your business and exit under the most favourable circumstances requires time and careful planning. Ideally, every franchisee should know how long they plan to operate their business before they even buy it.
By way of indication, research conducted by Griffith University shows that franchisees operate their businesses on average for seven years, whereas the average franchise term is five years. This means that most franchisees exit their businesses part-way during their second term.
For those who want to maximise their chance of achieving a capital gain, they will look to sell their business as early as possible in their second or subsequent term so that the buyer will have the longest possible balance of term left to run the business for themselves. The shorter the balance of term available to a buyer, the less the business will be worth.
thE clock is tickiNg
Many potential franchisees fail to understand that a franchise is a conditional grant limited by time. A franchise does not last forever. Typically franchises are granted for an initial term of five years, and then one or more options for additional five-year terms.
However, it should never be taken for granted that an option will be offered.
41
A franchisor may not wish to continue the relationship with a troublesome franchisee after the end of the first term, or even if the franchisor is willing to renew, a renewal can come unstuck if a landlord decides to increase the rent to the point that continuing the business becomes unviable (or the landlord may wish to reconfigure or redevelop the site, etc).
Therefore the clock is ticking from the moment a franchisee commences operation of their franchise and they should be totally focussed on their profitability in their first term, just in case there isn’t a second one.
If a second or subsequent term is offered (as is the case for most franchises), then a franchisee is in an excellent position to execute their succession plan.
it’s PossiBlE to stAy too loNg
Like fading Hollywood action stars, business owners can hang on too long before handing over the reins and bowing out gracefully.
Rather than planning a staged exit, those who stay too long risk losing their enthusiasm, their energy, their objectivity, their capacity to embrace innovation and change, and sometimes even their original vision for the business.
In a worst case scenario, those who stay too long risk losing touch with reality, and consequently risk losing the business itself.
With many Baby Boomer business owners now approaching (or already past) retirement age, those who do not have a succession plan may find themselves on the precipice of change with nowhere to go but down.
However, selling a franchise, like any other small business, takes time and effort. This is further complicated by the requirement in most franchise agreements that any buyer must be approved by the franchisor.
Under the Franchising Code of Conduct, a franchisor cannot unreasonably withhold consent to the sale of a franchise. The nature of what is ‘unreasonable’ may differ from one business to another depending on the specific circumstances of that
business and industry. Rather than go through the process of finding a buyer and getting upset if they are rejected by the franchisor, a selling franchisee should familiarise themselves with their franchisor’s current franchisee selection criteria applied at the very start of their sales process.
Your succession plan will depend on how well you understand the need to run your business profitably during its first term, your understanding of the current franchisee selection criteria, the timeframe you set for the sale of your business.
sEt A rEAlistic PricE
Many business and franchise resales fail to sell because the owners have set too high a price. In some instances, the price is based on a figure the owners need to reduce or clear their business and personal debt, plus a premium to recover their ‘sweat equity’ or unpaid effort in operating the business.
Unfortunately this approach often defies conventional business valuation models based on profit multiples, which vary from one business type to another. The result is that businesses are listed for sale (and occasionally sold) at grossly
inflated prices that have no bearing on their true market value and will inevitably cause difficulty for the new operators to achieve an acceptable return on investment.
Sellers should also be aware that sometimes the buyer who sees the most potential in the business and who sees value in paying the full asking price could also be an internal buyer, such as an existing member of staff or store manager. Business sales to internal candidates can often be conducted more smoothly and with better outcomes all round than sales to external buyers, though it should be borne in mind that sometimes internal buyers may need assistance via vendor financing over a staged payment period.
ProviDE AN iNForMAtioN MEMorANDuM
When the Franchising Code of Conduct came into being over 16 years ago, it originally required both franchisors and franchisees to provide disclosure information in the event of a resale. The requirement for vendor franchisees to provide disclosure was removed shortly afterwards, but the usefulness of providing information from an outgoing franchisee to a prospective

buyer remains. This can be by way of an Information Memorandum which outlines key data about the business, as well as its track record of financial performance. The best way to approach an Information Memorandum is to think of it as a business plan in reverse, summarising the financial and non-financial achievements of the business to date.
ProviDE AccurAtE FiNANciAl iNForMAtioN
Small business owners frequently (including franchisees) load their businesses with personal expenses such as leases for private motor vehicles, mobile phones, non-business repair costs charged to the business as repairs and maintenance, additional wages for family members, education and travelling costs, and so on.
Such practices significantly distort and artificially lower the true performance of the business. When a multiplier is applied to the profit to determine the value of the business, the overall price will be lower than if ‘true’ profit had been used. Alternatively, a price can also be so great that its profit multiple would appear so high as to make it impossible for a buyer to make a reasonable return on their investment.
Of course business owners attempt to get around this by providing an estimation of their personal chargebacks to the business so that a potential buyer must read the Profit and Loss statement and Balance Sheet with a grain of salt.
On top of this, further creative accounting may result in an alternative set of financial statements which may artificially reduce turnover for those franchises where royalties to the franchisor are calculated as a percentage of turnover. Somewhere in this conflagration of excessive costs to reduce profits, and lower-than-actual turnover, might be the real performance of the business, but only if the buyer can work this out for themselves.
iNDEPENDENtly sourcE iNquiry togEthEr With thE FrANchisor
Many franchisees who decide to sell their business expect that a buyer will promptly materialise from the stream of general franchise inquiries received
by the franchisor. Unfortunately this is rarely the case. Inquiries received by the franchisor may be for locations anywhere in the region, state or nation, and may primarily be for new or greenfield sites.
Furthermore, these inquiries are yet to be qualified into acceptable candidates that meet the system’s selection criteria, and finally, the price offered by the selling franchisee may be too expensive compared to the cost of setting up a new location for a potential buyer.
It is therefore essential that selling franchisees also seek their own potential buyers by conducting their own advertising (subject to the franchisor’s approval) and listing with one or more business brokers who service their area. Brokers often have an ongoing stream of inquiry for businesses in their area, and in reviewing the business for sale prior to listing can help the franchisee determine a realistic market price for their business.
tAlk With othEr FrANchisEEs
Once a franchisee has decided to sell their business, they should also inform other franchisees of the same system in neighbouring sites or territories. These franchise colleagues will have an interest in the sale because the sale price may provide a benchmark to help determine the value of their own businesses.
Also, adjoining franchisees may well be potential buyers in their own right, and able to move more quickly to settle a sale than a complete newcomer because of their existing operational expertise and cultural affinity with the system. Existing franchisees will have a better understanding of the creative accounting that may appear in the seller’s financial statements.
Furthermore, existing franchisees will generally have a greater likelihood of being approved by the franchisor (so long as they are operating their current businesses in compliance with the franchise agreement), and the need for an extended handover from seller to buyer will not be as great compared to selling to someone from outside the system.
sEt A rEAlistic tiMEFrAME
Businesses can take a long time to sell – months or even years depending on the
price, location, industry, sale conditions and other factors.
Franchisees and small business owners often make the mistake of setting an unreasonably short fixed deadline to sell the business, then panic or blame the franchisor, the business broker or someone else when it doesn’t sell in that timeframe.
Often these timeframes are set by the next thing that a franchisee has already committed to move on to, such as another business elsewhere, or a return to the workforce often for a former employer or colleague.
As the deadline approaches for the franchisee to commence their new undertaking, their desperation to sell increases, and with it, the pressure they apply to their franchisor and their business broker to find a buyer. At the same time, the price becomes increasingly negotiable and the franchisee can potentially cost themselves a lot of money by selling at a much lower price in order to meet their next commitment.
The reality is that the business will take an unpredictable length of time to sell, and in that time the franchisee really needs to keep operating at full steam to maintain both the financial performance of the business, as well as their own motivation.
Why hAvE A succEssioN PlAN?
So to return to the immortal words of The Gambler, planning when and how to exit a business is the best way of ensuring that your capital gain is preserved. This can even be achieved by continuing to own the business, but bringing in new talent to operate it

success starts
often times when we talk about growing our business the obvious areas we
focus on is increasing sales, increasing bottom line profits, implementing consistent marketing activities, converting more leads into customers and then bringing them back for more. then there’s time management, team training, leadership, finance, systems and the list goes on.
As a business owner for the past 24 years, there have been times where even I have faced many an uncertain time. Often times, after exhausting all business building activities and avenues, I have been forced to look at what else could be influencing the situation at that particular time. I have learnt very quickly now, that if anything in my business is

going to change, it must begin with me. If I didn’t change personally, nothing else would change. I was responsible.
Growing a business is not just about focusing on the business elements which is what I now refer to as the Outer Game. Achieving business success has more to do with the Inner Game, in other words your mindset, having the right mentality.
So let’s dive in and start the year off right with looking at some key elements to help you shift into a mindset for success, so that you can maximise your potential and achieve higher levels of success.
Of course I could write an entire book on this so if you would like more information beyond these tips outlined in this article please contact me and I’d be more than happy to discuss further about how you
45
can take control of your future success, by adopting an attitude and mentality for success.
Your mind is like a parachute.. it works better when it’s open.
The first step in realising your true potential is to have an open mind. As the saying goes, your mind is like a parachute, it works best when it’s open. Keeping an open mind and having flexibility has served some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world today.
So grab a cup of tea or coffee and as you settle into reading this I ask you to continue with an open mind and then make a commitment to take the necessary daily actions to make long lasting shifts and changes on the journey of business and life.
Reality is, you have more natural potential than you could use over a hundred lifetimes. Whatever you have accomplished to date is just a small
fraction of what is possible for you. One of the rules for success is this: it doesn’t matter where you are coming from, all that matters is where you are going and where you are going is solely determined by your thoughts and beliefs which determine the actions you take which determines the results. A point to note is you will always get a result. It will either be moving you closer to where you want to be or further away. With this in mind it is important to ensure you start the day off with the right attitude and mindset.
crEAtE MorE MoMENtuM By chANgiNg your thiNkiNg
One of the most important things you can do, if you want to be truly happy and successful, is to free yourself from negative emotions. It has been proven over time that you become what you think about most of the time. The negative emotions of fear, self pity,
envy, jealousy, self doubt and anger are mostly caused by four factors. Once you identify and remove these factors from your thinking, your negative emotions stop automatically. This is when you step into flow and start to produce the results you want.
1. Stop justifying. You can only be negative as long as you can justify to yourself why you are not achieving the results you want.
2. Refuse to rationalise and make excuses. When you rationalise, excuse your actions by creating an explanation that sounds good, even though you know that you are the one responsible for doing whatever it takes to create the success you desire.
3. Rise above the opinion of others. It is important to start to overcome your hypersensitivity about the way other people treat you or think about you. Focus on what you need to do and trust what is right for you.
4. Take 100 per cent responsibility for your success. The worst thing we can do to inhibit our success is to blame others and outside circumstances for our lack of results. The moment you assume 100 per cent responsibility for your results and therefore the actions you take you will achieve more momentum than you ever thought possible.
Start by being mindful of what you are thinking about and talking about most.
hAviNg clEAr goAls iNcrEAsEs coNFiDENcE
Having clarity around what it is you want to achieve in all areas of your business and life, will increase your confidence, develop your competence and boost your levels of motivation. When you feel confident and competent your motivation to take the right actions is higher and you will notice you do more and therefore achieve more. You will feel empowered and that then empowers your team.
clArity is EvErythiNg
Your greatest responsibility to yourself is to invest whatever time is required to become absolutely clear about exactly what you want and how you can best achieve it. The greater the clarity you have regarding your goals, the more
46
you will maintain a laser beam focus on doing the right steps in the right order at the right time to ensure you move closer to achieving your desired outcomes.
If you are not yet clear on what you want to achieve for the next 12 months, take some time to write down your top goals in each key area of your business and life. Be sure your goals and desired outcomes are written down and, more importantly, be sure there is an action plan in place so that they can take the necessary actions to achieve these goals. Ninety-day cycle action plans are best for building momentum fast.
ADoPt AN AttituDE For grAtituDE
It’s amazing the shift in how you feel and how you approach your day when you adopt an attitude for gratitude. One of the best ways to start changing your attitude is to start adopting an attitude for gratitude. It’s very hard to bring good into your life if you are not grateful for what you already have. There is always going to be someone else in this world worse off than you are. They may be a competitor, a friend or a complete stranger. Start each day by saying thank you! Giving thanks for what you already have will open the doors for you, and faster than you think.
BE coMMittED AND stAy coMMittED
Even I fall into this disempowering habit. I write about this often and it’s important to mention it again. There are those that are interested in success and those
who are committed. Those who are interested do whatever is convenient to them and they tend to make excuses for their shortfalls, setbacks and lack of results. On the other hand those who are committed stay positive, focused and take consistent daily action doing whatever it takes to achieve what it is you want. Simply ask yourself this question. Am I interested or committed? If you recognise you’re just interested in a few areas, make a commitment to change right now.
rEMovE thE AutoMAtic NEgAtivE thoughts With PositivE AFFirMAtioNs
Every disempowering habit must be replaced with a new one. Many of us catch our negative self talk; however we don’t replace it with anything positive so the cycle continues. Make it a daily habit to say positive affirmations. Positive affirmations are simply positive statements said in the present tense to affirm something to be true. Some examples are: I am confident, I am a savvy and successful business owner, success comes easily to me, I live each day with passion and purpose. Write your own list of positive statements / affirmations and see how your mentality shifts for the better.
EliMiNAtE thE F WorD
Ok, I know what you are thinking...what is she on about? The F word is something we see, feel and hear every day. It is something that makes us cringe. It can propel us forward, or
more often, it can hold us back. It can be quite debilitating, creating a state of paralysis. It is the F word that prevents us from achieving all we want and more. FEAR is a silent killer within every aspiring entrepreneur and business person. Knowing how to help yourself, your team members, friends, family and colleagues control it and manage it will pay out dividends over and over. The most common definition of FEAR is False Emotions Appearing Real. Fear is an emotion we feel. Fear is sometimes a good thing, as it can keep us safe from many a dangerous situation. The challenge is to know how to take control of your FEAR and move through situations that present opportunity and better outcomes. Firstly I like to say there is no fear only feedback. This then opens up opportunities for improvement. It allows you to focus on what can be and what is possible.
By committing to a shift in your mindset, adopting an attitude for gratitude, being clear about your goals and what it is you want, taking consistent daily action, being mindful of your automatic negative thoughts and replacing them with positive and empowering statements and affirmations the fear will dissipate, procrastination will be a thing of the past and momentum will be something you experience every day.

hiring is an important decision for your
business. the right approach can benefit
your workplace and save you time and money.
If you are thinking about hiring a new employee for
your business there are steps you can take to help
you find the right person for the job.
kNoW thE lAW
Before hiring, it is important that you understand
your workplace obligations. The Fair Work Act 2009
greg Jennings, Director, Education resources team, Fair Work ombudsman
applies to all employees in the national system, and covers things like wages, record-keeping, pay slips and discrimination.
You should make sure that you are familiar with the National Employment Standards (NES). There are 10 NES in total and they apply to all employees. The NES covers things like maximum weekly hours, annual leave, personal/carer’s leave (also known as sick leave), parental leave and public holidays. For more information about the NES visit www.fairwork.gov.au/nes.

It is also important to know which modern award/s or enterprise agreements apply to your workplace.
A modern award is a document that sets out the minimum wages and conditions for an industry or occupation. They apply on top of the NES and cover things like pay, hours, rosters, breaks, allowances, penalty rates and overtime. To search for a modern award, you can visit www.fairwork.gov.au/awards.
An enterprise agreement is a document that sets out the minimum wages and conditions for a workplace. When an agreement is in place, it will usually
apply instead of the modern award. You can search for enterprise agreements and find out more about the agreement making process on the Fair Work Commission’s website www.fwc.gov.au.
As an employer you also need to take tax for your employees pay. Further information about your taxation and superannuation obligations can be obtained from the Australian Taxation Office – www.ato.gov.au/business/employers.
thiNk ABout hiriNg
The next step in the hiring process is
to consider whether hiring is the best option, or whether there is already someone on staff who can be trained for the role. To make this decision, you will need to assess your business’ current and future needs and define the role that needs to be filled.
If you decide that you do need to hire, think about what you need from the role and develop a job description to match. As part of this, consideration should be given to the type of employee you need (casual, part-time, full-time or fixed term). You should also consider the skills and qualifications required. For a template job description visit www.fairwork.gov.au/templates.
AttrAct thE right PEoPlE
Once you have developed the job description for the role you would like to fill, the next step is to advertise the job and attract the right candidates. You will want to make sure that suitable applicants hear about the opportunity and can match it with their skills, qualifications and expectations. When preparing your job advertisement, you should list the skills and experience you are looking for. You should also remember to let applicants know what is in it for them by including information about the location, salary and benefits of the job.
The best way to advertise will depend on the position you would like to fill. Consider advertising in newspapers or industry publications, using online job sites and social media, or by placing a poster in the shop window.
choosE thE right PErsoN
The next step is to create a shortlist of candidates you would like to interview from the applications received. A shortlist is particularly useful if you received a lot of applications for the position. This is because it will help you to identify the applicants whose skills and experiences best match the role.
Once you have prepared a shortlist you will be able to prepare to interview the best candidates. Interviews can be formal or informal. The focus should be
51
on asking the right questions so that applicant’s skills and experience can be matched with the job that needs to be filled.
Avoid asking questions that are personal, intrusive or irrelevant to the role as they may be seen as inappropriate or discriminatory.
The Fair Work Ombudsman’s Online Learning Centre has a course titled Hiring new employees. As part of this course you can test your interviewing skills through an interactive video scenario. The Online Learning Centre can be accessed at www.fairwork.gov.au/learning.
oFFEr oF EMPloyMENt
Once you have selected the best candidate, you will need to offer them the job. This can be done over the phone, but it’s a good idea to follow up in writing with a letter of offer. There are template letters of offer available at www.fairwork.gov.au/templates.
You should also provide them with a copy of the Fair Work Information Statement. This Statement must be given to each new employee when they start work. You can download a copy at www.fairwork.gov.au/fwis.
At this stage, you may also wish to provide the person with copies of any relevant company policies such as the code of conduct, uniform or social media policies. You should also think about providing them with any forms that need to be completed, including a tax file declaration or superannuation choice form.
stArt oN thE right Foot
To ensure you get the most from your new employee, you should invest time in a thorough induction. A well thought-out induction helps employees feel well-informed and equipped to do their job.
The induction can include things like a tour of the workplace and introductions to their colleagues, an overview of the business, an explanation of the employee’s role and responsibilities, a discussion about relevant policies
and procedures and a run-down of workplace health and safety procedures. For assistance with planning your induction, download our Induction Checklist at www.fairwork.gov.au/templates.
BE A ProDuctivE WorkPlAcE
During the first few weeks of employment, it’s a good idea to meet with the new employee to set goals and expectations. At this stage, you should also try to identify any training that might be required. You may wish to create a performance agreement to ensure that these needs are met. You can access a template performance agreement at www.fairwork.gov.au/templates.
Regular meetings are a good way to give new staff member’s feedback about their performance and monitor their suitability for the role.
Remember, if a problem does arise you should address it with your new employee promptly. The Fair Work Ombudsman’s Online Learning Centre has a course for managers and business owners titled Managing performance. This course contains practical tips for promoting good performance and
addressing underperformance when it occurs. It can be accessed at www.fairwork.gov.au/learning.
The Fair Work Ombudsman’s guide to hiring new employees is available at www.fairwork.gov.au/hiring. This guide contains further information about each of the steps in the above hiring process and provides straight-forward advice about hiring new staff. The guide was created to provide employers advice in plain-English about the best way to employ new workers and to outline their workplace obligations in simple terms.
For further information and advice you can visit the Fair Work Ombudsman website – www.fairwork.gov.au. Here you will find a range of resources including fact sheets, best practice guides, checklists and template documents. Alternatively, you may wish to call the Fair Work Infoline on 13 13 94. A free interpreter service is also available on 13 14 50.

Marketing:
regardless of the type of franchise business you own, sales and marketing
are the only activities that you will do in your new business that brings money in, rather than takes it out.
The best success as a franchisee will come from working as a team with your franchisor to promote your business and draw in the best customers.
The franchisor’s job is Corporate Marketing: that is, creating and running all the marketing activities that support all franchisees and strengthen the brand as a whole.
The franchisees job then is Local Area Marketing: doing lots of low cost activities ‘on the ground’ that capitalise on the global marketing and ensure that customers, beginning to know and trust the brand, know where you are and that they come and buy from you often.
In a good franchise system, it can be tempting to leave most of the marketing to your franchisor. But remember, no marketing by you means that you have no control. It also means that your business is worth significantly less, as it doesn’t have a way of self-generating work (there’s no tap that you as the business owner can turn on and off).

Often, the biggest frustration that franchisors have is that their franchisees aren’t doing much in the way of local area marketing - that is, building up the business name close to home in support of the brand promotion done on a wider scale.
At the end of the day, a franchise is a small business with the added bonus of a brand and support system to give you everything you need to succeed. However it is still your business (and probably your family’s business) and with so much on the line it is important that you do everything you can to have people lining up at your door.
Local Area Marketing, sometimes called Self Promotion, is simply anything you as the franchisee can do to help bring new customers into your business. Usually, it involves working at a local level or with the community, as these things are specific to your business site as opposed to the whole franchise group. Where mass media is ‘one-to-many’, local area marketing can be closely targeted to only your ideal clients and is ‘one-to-a-few’.
Many business owners are a little too humble for good local marketing, because to become known in your community really does involve becoming

just a little bit famous in your local area. A marketing consultant (or even a marketing student) can be a great help in the initial stages of working out how to increase your local profile.
Some examples of types of low cost local marketing that are usually allowed within a franchise system (see the word on permission below) include:
1. Networking with local businesses and people. (I call well-connected people ‘sneezers’ as you can let them know about your business and they will tell everyone – you become highly contagious!)
2. ‘Giving back’ or sponsoring local schools, kinders, sporting clubs or community groups. (There is an effective and non effective way to sponsor things – to ensure you get ROI try to package in ways to meet the members face to face rather than just getting a sign on a fence).
3. Appearing at fetes, festivals, markets, council events, home shows or trade expos.
4. Joining your local BNI chapter, rotary group, chamber of commerce, etc. (As the business owner of a well-known brand you need to become a little bit famous in your local area – even if you’re a bit too humble)
5. Leaving business cards for your services in other businesses, on bulletin boards, etc.
6. Advertising your services within
key employers in your area (such as council, hospitals, large manufacturers etc).
7. Running promotions or sales specific to your outlet and distributing (franchisor approved) flyers to letterboxes.
8. Thank you letters to customers for using your services or to the top 10 referrers in your client base. We use this one very effectively in my medical business – top referrers have increased to generating us over $1000pm each since we introduced thank yous.
9. Host beneficiaries with other local businesses such as gift vouchers or free trials for their clients.
10. Appearing in local directories, school newsletters or discount booklets (NB: advertising copy must always be approved by the franchisor first).
11. Offering your team (and customers) incentives for referrals.
12. Going to the bank, post office and school pick up wearing your uniform.
corPorAtE MArkEtiNg – By thE FrANchisor
Most franchisors are excellent at two things – brand exposure and promotions. Combined with some efforts on your behalf at the local level, the end result is an ‘attack from all angles’ where potential customers will
know you from branding marketing, trust you from local marketing and then be inspired to buy from you due to a ‘call to action’ or special offer.
1. The first and biggest responsibility of corporate marketing is to increase awareness (and fondness) for your shared brand.
2. This is usually (but doesn’t have to be) done via mass media such as television, print advertising such as newspapers or magazines, radio, billboards, online and social media advertising and the group’s website. These mediums are ‘one-to-many’ – that is, one message is seen by many people regardless of whether they fall into your target market or not (though many invariably will, especially if you are in fast food or general retail).
3. Mass media advertising is a big benefit to you as a franchisee – in normal small business there would be no way you could afford to promote yourself via any of it, so the team factor is a big help in getting your name out there. Generally it is thought that customers need to ‘see’ you at least six times before buying, so this exposure greatly increases your chances of more direct local marketing bringing people in.
4. The other big advantage of being part of a franchise is what is called best practice – that because there are so many people essentially
55
running the same business, it is easier than normal to figure out the best possibly way of doing everything (think of your business being run in slightly different ways in multiple parallel universes and you get the idea – one will be best at sales, one best at managing their team, etc). In this way everyone benefits from the others.
5. Franchisors may take best practice and use it to share promotional offers amongst the group, that have been known to work in the past or for other franchisees. Again this removes your need to try and try again to get it right – you can simply put a great offer out there and reap the rewards with new business.
your MArkEtiNg FuND coNtriButioN
One of the main reasons that franchises work is the team effort that is brought to marketing the business.
For a small fraction of what it would cost on your own, most franchisees are able to have their brand exposed through main stream media and by professional advertising agencies, both of which are well out of reach for the standard small business owner.
Since marketing on behalf of the franchisees is one of the biggest responsibilities your franchisor has, the Franchising Code regulates this by having a set portion of your franchise fees (called the Marketing Fee, Advertising Levy or similar in your franchise agreement) go into an audited Marketing Fund that must only be spent in the promotion of the brand.
You will see any marketing fees as a separate entry on your franchisee fees invoice each month.
However it is important to note that the franchisor is not obliged to spend your marketing contributing in promoting your specific business in your area – only that they need to promote the franchise group’s business as a whole.
You will be able to see a statement of the Marketing Fund for the last financial year in your Disclosure Document (which you will receive alongside your franchise agreement). Section 12 of the Disclosure Document will also outline key points about the marketing fund, such as what sort of things the fund is
used for, and if anyone such as suppliers contribute to the fund.
New changes to the Franchising Code effective 1st January 2015 will add even more transparency to how your marketing funds are used by your franchisor. These include:
• requiring additional disclosure on the types of expenses marketing funds are being used for;
• requiring company stores or franchisor owned businesses to contribute;
• giving franchisees the option to vote for an annual audit of the marketing fund; and
• requiring franchisors to keep marketing funds in a separate account.
You should absolutely note that just because you are paying a marketing fee to your franchisor, this does not mean that all your marketing will just ‘be taken care of’. You have a big responsibility to spend time and money on top of this fee in promoting your business locally if you really want to do well.
sociAl MEDiA – A tEAM EFFort
If done well, social media is a cheap and prolific way to market. It is becoming an increasingly important part of being a part of your customer’s daily lives.
Almost all Australian’s aged under 40 (87 per cent) use social media, with the majority using every day.
Because of the viral nature of it, social media is usually set up and controlled by the franchisors, to keep the brand in good standing for the benefit of all franchisees.
However, social media is a content driven medium, and the engagement of customers and potential customers is only as good as the information you are putting out there. Often with no contributions by the franchisees, the franchisor is left without a great deal to say!
You can support your social media campaign and get involved with your organisation and the wider public by providing content such as interesting articles (even referencing and crediting something you have read), photos of your team and customers enjoying your services and good news stories and client testimonials.
While you usually can’t set up a
business facebook or twitter page as a franchisee, often it is fine to set up a profile as a business owner of your franchisor, and connect with other businesses using LinkedIn.
A WorD oN PErMissioN
Because everyone is sharing the one brand, it is important for franchises to protect how that brand is used and ensure that the business remains well known with a good reputation so that everyone’s business can succeed.
This is why advertising by franchisees is monitoring and controlled - with so many people involved the consistency of the brand can very quickly become eroded and dilute mass marketing efforts.
As a rule, franchisees are encouraged to do local area marketing and only need to run the final ad past their franchisor for permission. Don’t let this requirement scare you off – almost all franchisors are excited and supportive for franchisees marketing themselves.
For social media and other uses of photographs, it is especially important to get everyone’s permission before using that image in promotions. If unsure, stick to family and friends or professional models. You should also gain your customer’s permission before using their case studies, testimonials or such in your marketing.
A WiNNiNg tEAM
Belonging to a franchise is a great way to leverage off some expensive brand exposure being done on your behalf, and to partner with a company that has a proven history of marketing themselves.
Remember though that no amount of money or brand exposure can replace local marketing. What we are looking for is a powerful combination of the macro and the micro – mass media and the local engagement working simultaneously to give you the most impact both from brand exposure and on-the-ground word of mouth.

recruitment
one of the greatest global challenges
facing all businesses today is
finding, engaging and retaining dedicated
ambassadors for their brand.
Whilst this is true for all businesses and food and
retail in particular experience great difficulty keeping
employees for more than a couple of years, meeting
this challenge is imperative in franchise recruitment.
And not surprisingly it is a large part of the reason
many retail businesses of scale and all food
networks of significant size are franchised (at least in
part). Franchisees bring not only the requisite capital
to build each unit of the franchisor’s business;
they become the motivated owner operators who
typically spend on average seven years in the
network.

Effective Franchise
thE FrANchisor/FrANchisEE rElAtioNshiP
The successful franchise is founded on a value proposition that recognises the basic interconnectedness of the franchisor and the franchisee in building enterprise value for both. It is a combination of the franchisor’s product or service, their experience, systems and processes, marketing know-how and brand, which together constitute their intellectual property.
It is a business opportunity that the franchisor can safely duplicate by licencing to other entrepreneurs (their franchisees) to invest in. Franchisees know that if they comply faithfully, the franchise model provides greater certainty than an unproven concept, reduces the risk of failure, and offers a higher potential for growth and realising their enterprise value when they sell.

This mutually beneficial relationship is secured by the legal agreement that has been customised for that specific business.
So, whether you’re an emerging brand opening green-field sites or an established system looking to drive and consolidate your network, attracting and recruiting the right franchisees to join your network is the critical lynchpin between the development and the execution phases of your growth.
A coMPEtitivE AND coMPElliNg FrANchisE ProPositioN
A decade ago potential franchisees had largely one criterion in evaluating
a franchise offer – the return on investment - and they didn’t really care if it was a gym, a poodle parlour or a bakery. The GFC and growing business sophistication have delivered much more risk adverse candidates whose concerns are now markedly more complex. And with over 1,400 franchise systems in Australia, franchisors need to present a competitive value proposition in order to attract the best candidates.
From research we conducted in 2013 with over 650 respondents, our data showed that potential franchisees assess a franchisor’s offer against the following criteria:
a) A proven business with good systems and processes
b) An established and recognised brand
c) The induction, start-up and ongoing training and support
d) The strength of the marketing activity
e) A lower risk profile.
Around 80 per cent of small business failures occur in the first five years. However, around only 20 per cent of franchised small businesses fail in that time. Franchisees look to your business to provide the financial data, the systems and processes, the brand and marketing collateral, the legal documentation and the training and support to reduce the risk associated with opening their own business.
That said, a 20 per cent failure rate still presents a fairly high degree of risk for both franchisor and franchisee. Added to this is the fact that over half of those 1,400 franchise networks never achieve critical mass – that is a degree of financial success that rewards the franchisor with greater revenue returns from developing their (in most cases very small) networks, than they would have had simply growing a few company owned and managed outlets.
This may be attributed to many factors including a product or service offering that is insufficiently differentiated from its competitors, an unsustainable business model, scalability issues related to technology, supply chain or brand and marketing, poor leadership and management and a host of other legal and commercial considerations. However, the failure to recruit the right franchisees is a stand out feature for a significant number of these small stagnant networks, and a critical factor in the success of EVERY franchise network.
DEFiNiNg FrANchisE rEcruitMENt
The single most important mind shift for most franchisors as they move into the recruitment phase is simply: recruitment is a franchise selection and grant not a franchise sales exercise!
So given you have a compelling franchise offer that ticks all the boxes noted above: a proven business with documented processes in operations manuals; an established brand and marketing capability; the start-up and on-going training and support, accurate financial data and the proper legal documentation. You are now looking to locate and screen candidates who
59
fit clearly defined criteria, who pass a rigorous qualifying process and are willing to comply with a set of operational and legal requirements. Those who do will be offered the opportunity to join your network where their success will be dependent upon their compliance and cultural allegiance. This creates the psychological dynamic upon which the future relationship is built. Selling something creates the implication of imposition to the purchaser, granting something implies a privilege to the grantee.
Remember always that completing the recruitment process successfully is not the end game - rather it is the commencement of the franchisor/franchisee relationship. Because developing a thriving, sustainable network is the foundation of your enterprise value now and at your ultimate exit.
thE chArActEristics oF thE right FrANchisEE For your NEtWork
How do you determine who you want - the qualities and qualifications of candidates, where they can be found and how to screen and select them? How do you establish the recruitment criteria and process that will attract the highest calibre candidates and how will that translate to on-boarding and retaining successful, profitable happy franchisees? Qualifying potential recruits in this context, considers their financial capacity, their skills and experience, their psychological profile and the cultural/brand fit.
1. sufficient Capital
Obviously candidates need sufficient capital to pay the up-front franchise entry fee and set up costs. But make sure they have a thorough understanding of the cash-flow projections and how much operational working capital may be required until the business is profitable. Present accurate financial data based on your existing operations, so that they can analyse the numbers and assess the expected returns. As a guide, typically franchises of around $300,000 - $500,000 should take 2.5 to 3.5 years to return the original capital investment (as well as taking a moderate wage during this period). Providing guidelines around financing and ensuring candidates are appropriately
financed and independently advised before proceeding to the next phase is essential to avoid wasting time or having the franchisee get into financial difficulties through lack of guidance regarding capital requirements.
The Disclosure Document as mandated by the Franchising Code of Conduct 2014 and monitored by the ACCC contains basic financial disclosure requirements, but it is recommended that actual historical data be provided if it is available and applicable for the franchisee to assist in obtaining finance, although no projections should be provided and you should not take responsibility for providing figures to any lender. The candidate is also advised (including in the new two page Information Statement from January 2015) to seek financial and legal advice and must sign that they have done so, or that they have declined to do so after having been recommended to obtain that advice.
You are looking for motivated, well capitalised and competent franchisees, so candidates who seek to be well-informed and properly advised in order to make the commitment to your network have a better chance of ensuring their and your success.
2. Relevant Qualifications, Experience and skills
You need to be certain that with your induction, training and support and by following the Operations, Training and Procedures Manuals, franchisees will be able to run their business independently and hire, train and manage their staff. Some businesses have prerequisite qualifications and demonstrated expertise, but many look to the induction, training and support they provide to qualify their candidates, and some depend on both.
A dental, optometry or veterinary franchise may require professional degree qualifications. A delivery or transport business may require a truck license, a trade certification may be needed for an automotive, electrical, or plumbing business, or registration with the relevant regulatory bodies may be required for masseurs or beauty therapists. Some skills may be experience based such as food handling experience for QRS franchising or technical experience for phone or computer repairs.
A number of standard checks are mandatory in the recruitment process and should include the basic employment and business references, police and credit checks.
3. The Appropriate Psychological Profile
This is more difficult to quantify and is not industry specific - rather it is an integral part of the recruitment profile of successful candidates in any business. In a franchise network however it includes both macro and micro profiling. It is imperative from the first point of enquiry that your recruitment process creates the platform on which the relationship will proceed. Establishing the psychological dynamic that determines the franchisee’s position in your network going forward is an important qualifier for both franchisee and franchisor.
Macro-profiling: A franchise is not a democracy and macro-profiling ensures candidates understand their success is dependent upon their willingness and ability to comply with your proven concept, systems and procedures. This ensures they are sufficiently entrepreneurial to run their businesses but not to the extent that they deviate from the operational and legal guidelines or challenge you, the franchisor.
Some significant innovation has come from franchisees in successful networks over the years – the McCafe, Ronald McDonald, the McHappy Meal and the Filet-O-Fish Burger are some examples. However, McDonalds has been franchising for over six decades and that’s about the level of franchisee driven innovation in that period of time!
Micro-profiling: This determines the ideal candidates according to the franchisor’s task and culture requirements. The recruitment of franchisees is focused on protecting and upholding your brand’s core values. This will be dependent on both the business’ product and service offering, and the service culture.
You need to consider carefully what has made you successful. List the attitudes and attributes you need in your franchisees and document your sales process and service culture. For example you may deliver a professional health service and recognise that it has been your ability to engage with your community in marketing and business
60
development through free educational health initiatives in schools, mother’s groups and service organisations, and becoming the trusted local experts that has set you apart from your competitors. This will mean that whilst your franchisees will need to be professionally qualified, primary desirable attributes will be the great communication, networking and people skills, necessary to develop their territories.
The clearer your picture of the franchisee you want, the better and more cost effective your ability to locate and recruit them will be. This in turn makes them more likely to be successful and happy, leading to higher levels of profitability, greater compliance, and better retention in your network.
4. The Right Cultural Fit
Successful franchisors have well defined and articulated values and a vision for their network. This creates brand ambassadors who are directly invested in managing their staff, monitoring costs, driving sales, lifting profitability and promoting customer loyalty. Leading with your mission, positioning your brand story and then finding franchisees who will genuinely buy into that vision with some measure of your passion and commitment is essential to both their and your success.
Cultural allegiance is the primary driver in high performing networks. So what are the characteristics of high performance cultures and how do you build an organisation with an adaptive culture aligned to your business goals?
Culture is founded on the shared values and practices of a group. This informs their vision, gives clarity to their mission and ultimately leads them to outperform their competitors.
Identify and define your company’s values - listing what is important to all the people in your organisation. Articulate and communicate those values from your first lead generation activities and throughout the entire recruitment process. Screen for a values fit even before skills and experience, and recruit people whose personal values are aligned with the company’s. And back up the verbal communication with behaviour that supports those values.
This is not a ‘touchy-feely’ HR intangible. Performance-oriented cultures have statistically higher levels of profitability, better financial growth, with greater franchisee commitment, compliance and retention. The enduring success of your network is built on this understanding and should be the key driver in the entire recruitment process from lead generation and first
application through financial, legal and operational qualification to the final grant of the franchise.
And it doesn’t stop at granting the franchise. It underpins your training and support from the on-boarding process to the ongoing training and long term support and up-skilling you provide to your franchisees. It is demonstrated in your leadership and head office. Defining your values is fundamental, but your action and behaviour communicate your values and your vision more accurately than words. Finally affirm and positively reinforce franchisees and head office team members for acting in line with the company values as this is what consistently consolidates your culture.
Remember, values drive decisions - from whom to hire to strategic business decisions.
rEcruitMENt – iN-housE or outsourcED?
Many franchisors, particularly in the early stages of their development, assume that recruiting their own franchisees will be more cost effective and that they understand better what they require so will be more discerning in their evaluation and choice. From many years’ experience this has not only proven to be untrue, but many
61
franchises that may ultimately go on to become successful after a faltering start can trace their shaky beginnings to offering franchises to family and friends and other parties based on their personal assessment of their suitability. And many simply fail to thrive at all, based on getting the initial franchisees wrong.
Getting this right particularly with the first few franchisees is imperative. Happy, profitable franchisees are your best recruiters. As each candidate does their due diligence speaking with your existing franchisees (and any who have left your network as you are obliged to disclose names and contact details of all these under the Disclosure Document), franchisees who can report openly to enquiries from potential franchisees about the health and success of your network will often be a decisive factor in attracting good candidates to becoming new franchisees.
For many franchisors, particularly in the first couple of years, managing operations (and often a company location or more), inducting and training new recruits, potentially overseeing the fit-out and set-up of the new location and supporting existing franchisees can be all their head office can manage or afford to resource.
Recruiting each franchisee comes at a cost whether you do it at head office or outsource it to professionals. Work out what that cost is and factor the cost in to your franchise entry fee. The danger of recruiting in-house is that because your existing operation by its very nature must command more of your attention, recruitment becomes a poor second for that attention. Then you either fail to be sufficiently responsive to the leads generated and fail to move forward, or candidates are not screened with sufficient diligence to the process and poor choices can be made. In a few years as you are recruiting ten or more franchisees per year you will have the revenue coming into head office to resource an in-house recruitment facility.
Another benefit of outsourcing is that it creates the necessary psychological distance between candidates and the franchisor. The recruiter does the leg work, establishes the parameters of the relationship and pre-qualifies potential franchisees who are only introduced to the franchisor when they have met all the criteria so that they can be
approved. Maintaining this distance between candidate and franchisor from an in-house recruitment resource requires that the organisation be large enough that the franchisor is not the recruiter.
However the big caveat for either outsourcing recruitment or recruiting from within is the quality of the franchisee recruiters you engage. The quality of the franchisees will never eclipse the calibre of the recruiter, so you need to be certain that not only are they well trained, well presented and very experienced franchise recruitment specialists (check out whom they have recruited for) it is essential that you have confidence that they will be congruent conduits to promote your values, your vision and your culture.
thE rEcruitMENt ProcEss: lEAD gENErAtioN strAtEgy AND iNtErviEW ProcEss
The process by which you generate leads and then qualify candidates is divided into two equally important phases:
1. Lead Generation strategy
Franchise recruitment is to a large extent a numbers game. You need a quality lead generation process and investment to generate the interest necessary to grow the network. You need to be willing to commit the budget necessary to present your franchise opportunity in the right markets to drive the required number of leads. The criteria you have developed in relation to the characteristics noted above: qualifications and skills, the personal attributes, the financial capacity, psychological profile, values and cultural requirements, will assist in many cases in determining some particular media to exploit. For trades and professional franchises for example, professional and supply publications (printed or online) that cater to practitioners or trades people, or middle managers or suppliers and distributors in those jobs can be a great medium.
Determine your rollout program - what you wish to achieve and can manage and support from head office: say two to three franchise grants in your first year, three to five in your second. Select the media where you will present the offer and be readily responsive to the return on investment in any advertising medium
including print and online. This should be detailed and tailored specifically with particular consideration to your brand sensitivities and how you promote the franchise opportunity, as well as your roll-out schedule, requirements and budget. Our experience shows that the average cost of advertising to recruit a franchisee now exceeds $8,000. In simple terms, if you want to recruit three franchisees in your first year you will need to invest at least $24,000 in franchise opportunity advertising and perhaps more depending on the number of stores you already have in your network and your market/brand presence.
website Micro-site: Using your brand guidelines you need to develop an online micro-site to drive lead generation from your website to your recruitment team. Create a desktop, tablet and mobile version with an optimised range of features to maximise lead generation. This will be a key driver for leads going forward ensuring that they are captured in the same format. This micro franchise site should be linked to your standard website to ensure an increase in traffic.
Present your franchise opportunity on all your branded and marketing collateral – consumer advertising, vehicles, website, packaging, uniforms, social media, LinkedIn, trade and supply media, in your locations and anywhere you appear.
2. A structured interview Process
The interview process needs to be both robust and highly structured, allowing you to effectively manage and convert quality leads in the first instance and qualify the appropriate candidates in the second. Develop a comprehensive recruitment process including your meeting structure and content, the defining decision points, the necessary documents, checklists and forms, and explanations of each process step and its rationale. A thorough five to six meeting process determines whether the candidate under evaluation meets the multiple criteria and if they should be invited to become a franchisee.
You need to be mindful of your legal obligations under the Franchising Code of Conduct in relation to the structure and content of your Franchise Agreement, the newly introduced Information Statement, the requirements and formatting of the Disclosure Document, cooling off periods, and
62
the treatment of refundable deposits. Always use a specialist commercial lawyer who is highly experienced in franchise law to draft your legal documents and advise you on your obligations under the Franchising Code as penalties for non-compliance now range to over $50,000.
thE MEEtiNg ProcEss
initial phone call - Share your information package (including the 2 page Information Statement from January 2015); set up first meeting in person.
First meeting – Collect a signed confidentiality agreement. Present an introduction to franchising and education in the franchisor’s culture, system and story. Present financial modelling and assess their financial capabilities and expectations. Conduct personality testing and macro and micro psychological profiling.
second meeting – Put the full application and refundable deposit in place. Meet in person again to peruse the draft franchise agreement and disclosure documentation. Provide contacts for obtaining finance and provide a list of experienced franchise lawyers for a franchisee legal review (this is helpful to both parties as franchisees consulting the lawyer that did their will or property conveyancing can cause unnecessary grief for both).
Monitor progress and assist to ensure they do not drop out at this stage due to nervousness or incorrect advice. Discuss the available locations / territories.
Third meeting – Review the legal advice and if necessary negotiate any clauses that are not “deal breakers” for the franchisor. The agreement may not be negotiable, however manage the responses from their lawyers.
Fourth meeting – Start the specific processes related to the operation of the franchisor’s business; a meeting with franchisor and introduction to the head office. If approved, candidates move to the next meeting.
Fifth meeting – Confirm finance and set up of the franchisee company structure is finalised. Issue legal documentation in final form. Upon receipt of disclosure/prior representation deed, any cooling off period begins.
sixth meeting – Sign franchise agreements and all attached paperwork. Take receipt of the franchise fee in full. Manage this process until the cooling off period has passed and the franchisor has executed the agreements.
The franchisor then welcomes the new franchisee into the network and begins the induction process and training.
It is equally important when a franchisee’s agreement ends or they wish to sell, that you revisit this interview process with the new candidate.
thE FrANchisE rEcruitMENt JourNEy – DroP-out rAtEs
You need to ensure you have both the process and the documentation to qualify the right candidates because here is some sobering data on drop-out rates on the franchisee recruitment journey from the research DCS conducted with over 650 respondents last year:
• 91percentofcandidatesdroppedout because of poor or inadequate financial information. This includes insufficient data to obtain a bank loan, an unsound business model and numbers that simply didn’t stack up.
• 83percentofcandidatesdropped out because of poor legal documentation. This includes poorly drafted and non-compliant documents, terms and conditions that franchisee legal advisors deemed unacceptable, and curiously, a significant amount of this advice seems to have been from lawyers who were not familiar with franchising. So it is equally important for franchisor and potential franchisee to choose a specialist franchise lawyer – the former to draft appropriate franchise documentation and the latter to provide a constructive review of same.
• 30percentofcandidatesdroppedout because of the lack of defined operations, procedures and training information including printed or online
63
manuals or resources to indicate the franchisor had a proven concept, systems or processes or would provide adequate training and support relating to the operation of their business.
• 33percentdroppedoutbecauseof the relationship, i.e.; the franchise candidate and franchisor did not have synergy. Interestingly, and our many years’ experience would support this - franchisors who outsource to quality franchise recruiters very rarely find grounds not to approve and grant a franchise to a qualified recruit.
The important lesson here is that even if your lead generation strategy produces excellent candidates, your ability to convert the best of these into successful franchisees will be seriously compromised and the marketing effort and dollars completely wasted if you do not have the process and documentation to credibly support their recruitment.
A rEcruitMENt chEck list For FrANchisors
1. Financial Information – your actual historical financial performance data such as a P&L. You can provide a
blank template for a franchisee to produce their business model with indicative cash flow projections to assess whether they are adequately financed
2. Operations and Procedures Manuals preferably hard and soft copies
3. Franchise Agreement, Information Statement, Disclosure Document and any other legal documents such as leases, licences to occupy etc.
4. Brand and Marketing Collateral including local area marketing
Australia (along with our cousins across the ditch in New Zealand) is the most heavily franchised region in the world with four times as many franchise systems per capita than the U.S. Franchising is an integral part of our landscape and our economy contributing over $160billion in revenue to GDP annually. With about 1,400 franchises and 84,000 odd franchisees, the market is highly competitive. However, franchising is not a licence to financial success as less than 200 of these networks would have enterprise value of over $10million, if they could find an interested buyer.
Recruiting the right franchisees is a key driver in the success of the thriving
networks. And it is also a key concern for the top performers as identified in the 2013 franchise edition of BRW. These guidelines will assist you in attracting the best candidates and screening and selecting franchisees who are passionate and profitable.
Australians want to work for themselves and be their own bosses, yet curiously they are among the most risk adverse nations in the world…..a perfect recipe for franchising!

Mediation
the office of the Franchising Mediation
Adviser (oFMA) is an independent office,
appointed by the Federal Minister for small
Business to provide mediation and other
supportive services for disputes arising under
the Franchising code of conduct.
hong-An king, Assistant Franchising Mediation Adviser, office of the Franchising Mediation Adviser
through the Office of the Franchising Mediation Adviser
Where parties to a franchise agreement are in dispute, either one may contact OFMA and request information and assistance.
The OFMA has been in place since 1998 and has proven to be a reliable and effective means for resolving disputes and a model for other industry Codes. We are a neutral and confidential service for
65
chAPtEr 13
66
franchisees and franchisors. Historically, the success rate of mediation through the OFMA is over 75 per cent.
DisPutE rEsolutioN ProcEDurEs uNDEr thE FrANchisiNg coDE oF coNDuct (coDE)
The Code governs the franchising sector in Australia and applies to all franchises in Australia. Part 4 of the Code provides a mechanism for the process for resolving franchise disputes. It encourages direct negotiation between the parties in the first instance, and negotiation with the assistance of a mediator as requested.
With all new enquiries, we encourage parties to a franchise agreement to approach and negotiate with the other party directly. If the dispute is still not resolved, the OFMA can assist by providing educative advice and information on the process of mediation, and appoint a mediator to the dispute. We also assist parties to better understand or clarify their issues and interests. Where possible, we facilitate dialogue and agreement between parties, without going to formal mediation.
The process can be initiated by the franchisor or the franchisee. The goal
is to reach a negotiated agreement that both parties can live with, and is a confidential process. Any agreements made between the parties would not be disclosed to any third party to avoid precedence within the franchise system.
The process of mediation seeks to be collaborative and co-operative, rather than competitive. It allows the parties an opportunity to voice their concerns to each other with a mediator present. Mediators appointed by the OFMA are generally Nationally Accredited Mediators, and they act as a neutral person with expertise in the franchising sector. Their role is to help facilitate the discussion rather than making a final decision on who is ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.
The OFMA has a panel of experienced franchise mediators to assist you to have a productive conversation with your franchisor or franchisee(s) with a view to resolving issues in ways that meet the needs and interests of both parties.
As OFMA appoints the mediator, parties avoid entering into potentially protracted discussions on mediator selection. Concerns of mediator bias are removed as OFMA appoints a mediator to the dispute rather than one party having to agree on a mediator nominated by the other party.
ovErviEW oF thE ProcEss For DisPutE rEsolutioN uNDEr thE coDE
1. send a letter or notice of Dispute to the other party
This is a requirement under the Code as the first step in resolving the dispute. Under the Code, the Notice of Dispute must outline these three essential elements:
a) The nature of the dispute
b) What outcome the complainant wants
c) What action the complainant thinks will resolve the dispute.
Once the letter or Notice is sent to the respondent, both parties are required to try to agree about how to resolve the dispute. However, if the dispute is not resolved within three weeks, then either party may refer the matter to our office to appoint a mediator for mediation under the Code.
2. write a request to the OFMA to appoint a mediator
Under the Code, OFMA can appoint a mediator to the dispute once we receive a written request from either party. The appointment of the mediator will depend on the nature of the dispute.
3. Attend mediation
Once a mediator is appointed, both sides must attend the mediation. Failure to do so would be in breach of the Code and may attract a penalty of up to 300 penalty units (which is $51,000 as of 7 November 2014).
The Code does not define the mediation process itself, though typically mediations are facilitative, determinative or evaluative. Mediations conducted through OFMA follow the facilitative model where the mediator facilitates the parties’ own agreement without acting like a judge.
Mediation is a helpful process for both parties, whether they are the complainant or respondent. It is an effective process for resolving a dispute because:
67
• The process of mediation assists parties to understand their own issues better as well as the other side’s.
• It provides an opportunity to strengthen and maintain the franchise business relationship in the long term.
• It seeks to resolve various types of conflict quickly and efficiently.
• The settlement success rate is over 75 per cent.
• It is cost effective, especially in comparison to the cost and time of going to court. On average, the cost per party is $1,150 (including GST) for a full day of mediation.
Under the Code, parties must equally share the cost of mediation, unless they agree otherwise. The cost includes the cost of the mediator, the cost of room hire, and the cost of any additional input agreed by both parties to be necessary to conduct the mediation.
Where parties and their representatives embrace and support the process, we see remarkable developments and agreements made. Mediation is a process in which the parties to the dispute have a voice in the outcomes
that are achieved and ultimately in a binding agreement that meets the needs of both parties. The process allows for creative options and the opportunity to either maintain and develop the franchise relationship in the future or, where appropriate, the amicable termination of a franchise agreement.
oFMA’s othEr sErvicEs
Furthermore, the OFMA can assist either party in various ways, whether it be clarifying the issues, referring them to relevant advisory bodies or providing guidance in understanding the elements of a Notice of Dispute. The OFMA also offer a free Early Facilitation Service at its discretion for matters where there is only one or two straightforward issues that may not require the time or cost of the usual mediation process. Through this service we contact the other party and try to facilitate an agreement over the phone and email correspondence.
coNclusioN
Franchise systems may appear straightforward since it is a rapidly expanding business sector in Australia,
but experience shows that there are many complexities involved in this unique business relationship. As such, disputes may arise even with the most carefully drafted franchise agreement and excellent franchise system. Mediation has been proven to be a highly successful process for disputants to address their business concerns and reach solutions that both parties can ultimately live with.
The Franchising Code of Conduct encourages the resolution of disputes through mediation and the Australian Government funded Office of the Franchising Mediation Adviser assists franchisees and franchisors to resolve disputes in a cost-effective, confidential and timely manner.

your business?
Do you have a successful business that is screaming out for expansion?
Franchising is a proven and successful formula for expanding your business but it is not for the faint hearted and must be planned with caution. The 2014 amendments to the Franchising Code of Conduct aim to offer a far more balanced regulation for the franchise sector that requires good practice and conformity.
Franchising is globally recognised as a successful business growth model and an exciting marketing method, requiring elements of skill, patience and diligence. When adequately applied in a structured manner, it offers mutual benefit and satisfaction for all parties involved.
The revised Code seeks to require franchisors to be accountable for their actions particularly where they are not well prepared and advised in their efforts to grow the network and overall business. Franchising is a business relationship in which the franchisor (the owner of the business) licenses specific trading rights to a third party, i.e. the franchisee. The franchisee is granted the right to use the franchisor’s business trade marks (brand) and the operating methods via an operations manual for a fixed period of time. This is in exchange for granting the franchisor the right to undertake control over certain aspects of how the business is conducted, in order to maintain an acceptable standard of service and delivery across the network in a consistent manner.

READy TO FRAnCHisE
FrANchisiNg iN AustrAliA
Franchising is not a new business concept and has now been adapted in various forms across most industry sectors in Australia, its economic imprint is substantial and growing. The retail sector in particular has been revolutionised by the adoption of franchising, providing an opportunity for small business holders with the good business sense, financial resources and a commitment to invest in structures, systems and operations, to compete against the large scale corporations that have traditionally dominated the Australian retailing landscape.
Consider these statistics provided by Griffith University’s Asia-Pacific Centre for Franchising Excellence in collaboration with the Franchising Council of Australia release of Franchising Australia 2014 report:
69
chAPtEr 14
70
• There are 1160 business format franchisors in Australia in 2014;
• There are an estimated 79,000 units operating in business format franchises;
• More than 460,000 people are employed directly in franchising;
• Sales turnover of the entire franchising sector is estimated at $144 billion;
• 86 per cent of franchise systems originated in Australia;
• 45 per cent of franchise systems engage in online sales with customers.
So before you embark on franchising as a growth strategy the above facts suggest that whatever business it is that will be offered to the market place must be attractive enough to compete with the networks currently on offer. One of the ongoing factors that challenges many franchisors is the lack of prospective franchisees. This can impact the overall performance of the network dramatically and in some cases has stalled or ceased growth altogether.
is your BusiNEss rEADy For FrANchisiNg?
The concept of franchising can be adaptable to any business, provided it qualifies for some basic characteristics:
1. is your business proven? – Does the business you intend to franchise have a track record of success? Has that been duplicated and proven to be a credible business model? Is the franchise you are looking to offer manageable by others? Is there a clear and measurable avenue for growth and expansion in your specific market?
2. is your business concept unique? – Is your business adequately differentiated from its competitors? Is it marketable as a business opportunity? Does it have a sustainable competitive advantage?
3. is you business systemised? – Do you have operational systems in place? Are operating procedures documented? Could someone learn to operate your business in three months or less?
4. is your business commercially profitable? – Does your business have a marketable return on investment for a prospective franchisee even after all royalties
are distributed? If a business can’t generate a healthy enough return on investment after deducting a royalty it is going to have difficulty keeping franchisees happy.
5. is your franchise model commercially viable to you? – Do you know what it will cost to create your franchise model? What are the costs of marketing your franchise offer? What will be the growth assumptions of your franchise network? Have you determined what it will cost you to support your franchise network, now and in the future? What will be your returns, now and in the future?
6. is there a clear and determined long term strategy in place? – Are you committed to building, growing and expanding your business? Are you set up for what that commitment will require of your time and your desired lifestyle? Do you have an assumed exit strategy?
If these criteria exist, then the business could quite possibly be suitable for franchising.
Numerous factors need to be considered during this exercise for it to be done with any notion of due diligence and professionalism:
• Assessing the feasibility of your business, are the numbers you determine consistent and replicable?
• Are your outcomes a feasible proposition to a prospective franchisee?
• Determine what the financial investment commitments of a franchisee will be;
• Measuring that investment against comparable market opportunities and making sure they are competitive;
• What is the speed of growth you want or can achieve in your planned franchise network?
• Determine the capital investment you will need to budget for to attain that growth projection;
• Assess what it will take to suitably and adequately support the growing network operationally as the franchisor; and
• Determine whether the whole projected effort is economically feasible to you as a prospective franchisor.
The above matters are critical to the overall success of the franchise and more importantly to meeting the compliance requirements of the Code. As the Code specifies the form of disclosure required to franchisees, matters such as the establishment and ongoing costs associated with the franchise must be itemised and accurate. In addition franchisors must disclose any form of additional capital expenses required for the operation of the business. Franchisees are often asked to upgrade their IT systems, fitouts, vehicles and other matters that most often are not widely accepted by franchisees with open arms.
corE AsPEcts oF A FrANchisE
1. is your brand protected? – At its core franchising is the most effective way of exploiting Intellectual Property (IP). It is a sophisticated form of licensing rights for the franchisee’s use of the IP in accordance with the franchisors’ methods, generally known as the ‘System’.
Franchising is attractive to franchisees because they can invest in an established brand in which goodwill is already attached to a greater or lesser extent (depending on the market). This of course means that it will be easier to attract business since the reputation of the business has already been established by the franchisor and creates a far more saleable asset.
Trade marks (the golden arches for Macca’s, Apple for Smartphones, Swoosh for Nike and their respective names) in particular are an essential part of a franchise because they indicate the source of the goods and/ or services and communicate that source to consumers. The brand is instantly recognisable to consumers and immediately communicates to the consumer the nature and quality of the services and/or goods they can expect to receive from the franchise.
In a globalised marketplace, increasingly dominated by web-based content, the protection of a franchisor’s IP rights is paramount. Franchisors must ensure the brand is registered as a trade mark and appropriately licensed to the franchisee for use.
71
2. what is your corporate structure? – There are a number of examples of networks that have failed to execute the original plan. In some of those cases the entire network collapsed and as would be expected, the value in the brand deteriorated. A well advised franchisor would have a suitable structure in place to protect assets and limit liabilities. This structure however must be disclosed to franchisees often including an entity that owns the intellectual property, an entity that operates the franchise network and in some cases supplier entities. All aspects of the relationship between the entities must be supplied to the franchisee so that a franchisee is able to understand the relationship between the parties and the implications on the franchisee.
3. is your system well documented? – Franchise success is linked to consistency. Well established systems create a high level of consistency and accordingly thorough operations manuals leads to greater levels of success. In many cases the operations manual allows the franchisor to continue to evolve and develop its systems, products
or services and filter it down to the franchisee level without having to revisit the original agreement entered into between the parties. With the ever changing economic climate franchisors need to have cutting edge systems and processes to remain competitive.
It would be prudent to ensure that any provision in the franchise agreement that requires flexibility is linked to the operations manual. At the same time franchisors need to ensure that any changes made to the operations manual does not fundamentally change the arrangement made initially between the parties.
4. what is the agreement? – Many successful franchise networks base the terms of an agreement between the franchisor and franchisee on the basis of a sound business model. This includes the way the business must be dealt with including the commercial aspects. Many think that all franchise agreements are the same, however it is critical that franchisors produce an agreement that is customised and unique to their business. For many years franchisors
have based their agreements on core commercial pillars. A license term, a territory whether it be exclusive or non-exclusive, an upfront license fee, an ongoing royalty payment and a marketing levy. In recent times we have started to notice changes to these core pillars as brands evolve their businesses to include far greater IT infrastructure and sophisticated systems to deal with their franchisees in a more efficient way.
It is crucial that franchisors consider the terms of their franchise agreements in respect to the way they prefer to conduct business. The agreement must be a subset of the commercial and operational elements of the business rather than the other way around. In many cases this will eliminate the prospect of having to change and re-negotiate the terms of the agreement.

Credibility – maintained through the FCA member standards and the Franchising Code of Conduct; Professional support – through education programs, networking opportunities and regular events; and Representation – ensuring members’ voices are heard by governments, regulators and other important groups.
Membership also means solidarity. FCA members belong to an association where their peers work together for the betterment of the sector. FCA members share a common method of doing business – not a common business. For this reason, franchisors, franchisees and suppliers can freely exchange ideas without fear of losing their competitive edge.
The FCA currently has more than 600 franchise systems and suppliers in its membership base. This strong commitment to belonging demonstrates the relevance and value brought to the sector by the FCA.
MAJor sErvicEs AND iNitiAtivEs
The FCA recognises that its members have different needs, and that different types of members should co-exist harmoniously. The success of franchising depends on successful franchisors, and this, in turn, depends on profitable and happy franchisees.
The FCA works constantly to ensure that all activities and services which benefit franchising will benefit the broader community – including franchisees, franchisors, employees and their local economies and communities.
As well as commitment to the highest industry standards, the FCA facilitates a number of services and initiatives to assist in promoting and advancing the role of franchising in Australia, as well as supporting its members.
FcA FrANchisE AcADEMy
The FCA Franchise Academy is the premier training provider for the sector
committed to providing franchisors, franchisees, franchise consultants and suppliers with the best education programs available.
The FCA Franchise Academy aims to provide both franchise-specific and generic business skills training and education for pre-entry, in-market and succession (exit) to all organisational levels. The establishment of the FCA Franchise Academy coincided with the introduction of nationally recognised qualifications in franchising.
In 2012 the FCA Franchise Academy launched the Certified Franchise Executive program (CFE). The CFE is the only internationally recognised professional accreditation program for franchise executives. It is an educational framework designed to enhance the professionalism of franchising by certifying the highest standards of quality training and education.
The program offers existing and aspiring franchise professionals and entrepreneurs the opportunity to grow professionally and reach a recognised standard of excellence within the local and international franchise community.
FcA suPPliEr ForuM
Established in 2008, the objective of the FCA Supplier Forum is for suppliers to the sector to advise the FCA on what products and services they expect and need from their industry representative body.
The FCA recognises that a franchise cannot sustain success without the assistance of the many and varied consultants, services and business systems they provide.
Suppliers such as consultants, lawyers, finance, IR companies, software companies and many more, constitute the bridges that allow franchisors and franchisees to travel above the competitive landscape, on their way to a sustainable commercial advantage.
WoMEN iN FrANchisiNg coMMittEE
The number of women participating in small business and franchise ownership is increasing.
In 2007, the FCA announced the introduction of the Women in Franchising Committee (WIF), dedicated to promoting and advancing the achievements of women in franchising and small business.
The aim of the WIF Committee is to increase female participation in franchising. It aims to be a professional, organised group within the FCA that will provide women inside and outside the sector with information and encouragement, as well as genuine opportunities for contribution, networking and professional development.

The FCA hosts the annual National Franchise Convention. The Convention brings together the Australian franchise community – including successful business people, CEOs, government officials and industry advisors – to enjoy education, networking and business development opportunities.
Traditionally a three-day event, the National Franchise Convention also includes a trade exhibition where suppliers to the franchise sector can showcase their products and services.
The convention is open not only to those in franchising circles but also to the small business sector generally and it is not necessary to be an FCA member to attend.
The 2015 Convention (NFC15) will be held on the Gold Coast in October. For more information contact [email protected] or visit www.franchise.org.au.
FcA ExcEllENcE iN FrANchisiNg AWArDs
The FCA Excellence in Franchising Awards recognise and reward companies and individuals within the Australian franchise sector and provide
74
a platform for entrants to showcase their achievements on the national stage.
The Awards are open to FCA member companies only and are committed to ensuring that franchisors, franchisees and suppliers to the sector are appropriately represented.
Success at the Awards can increase brand recognition, customer enquiries and media coverage. It can boost company morale and help attract the best talent to companies.
The FCA Excellence in Franchising Awards ceremony is held in conjunction with the National Franchise Convention and is the pinnacle of the franchising year. Past winners include 2014 Australian Established Franchisor of the Year, Wendy’s Supa Sundaes, 2014 Franchise Woman of the Year, Sharon Jurd (HydroKleen) and 2014 Multi-unit Franchisee of the Year, Matt and Brad Walker (Grill’d Healthy Burgers) and many more.
hAll oF FAME
The Australian Franchise Hall of Fame was established in 2003. During its creation, the selection panel searched back to the origins of franchising in Australia and, by a meticulous process of elimination, identified the groundbreakers, influencers, quiet achievers, selfless contributors and outstanding performers who endured the trials and laid the foundations of the sector’s success.
Now, it is members of the Hall of Fame itself who induct new entrants. The sole criterion is an outstanding contribution to franchising – whether as a franchisor, franchisee, academic, lawyer, consultant, politician, financier – whomever.
The 2014 Hall of Fame inductee is Greg Nathan, founder of The Franchise Relationships Institute.
FcA MEMBEr stANDArDs
Members of the FCA receive many benefits which help businesses keep informed and connected with the franchise sector and facilitate education.
One of the hallmarks of a reputable sector is a commitment to high standards of personal and professional conduct. This enhances public perceptions of franchising, helps safeguard the investments of franchisors and the businesses of franchisees, protects franchise networks from unfair or unethical attack and provides guidance for those seeking to commence their franchising journey.
The FCA encourages its members to maintain standards of conduct worthy of franchise sector professionals. The Member Standards are designed to provide members of the FCA with an authoritative guide on acceptable standards of conduct.
The FCA believes the Australian franchise sector to be well regulated with the Franchising Code of Conduct (the Code) allowing for affordable, efficient dispute resolution procedures and disclosure provisions to assist and guide the sector. It also considers that the relationship between the franchisor and the franchisee can be developed even further with best practice guidelines in the form of FCA Member Standards.
It is the FCA’s view that a member gains significant market benefit in identifying themselves with FCA membership and as such the business practice and activities of members should work towards franchise best practice.
MEMBEr oBligAtioNs
All FCA members are expected to conduct their franchising activities professionally and in accordance with Australian law. They are expected to comply with agreed minimum standards of conduct. The FCA considers the following standards to be relevant to members:
• MembersoftheFCAshallabidebyall relevant State and Federal laws including, in particular, the Franchising Code of Conduct and the Competition and Consumer Act. Within 14 days of a written request by the FCA, a member shall furnish to the FCA a copy of its current disclosure
document, franchise agreement and any other documentation or advertising material used in connection with the appointment of a franchise.
• No member shall imitate the trademark, trade name, corporate name, slogan, or other mark of identification of another member of business in any manner or form that would have the tendency or capacity to mislead or deceive.
• Members will become familiar with the content of these Member Standards and draw them to the attention of clients as appropriate from time to time.
• A member, be they a franchisor, vendor, franchisee, franchise broker, or representative of a franchise system should not sell a franchise if at the time the franchisor or vendor franchisee knew or ought to know that a reasonably competent franchisee would be unlikely to be able to successfully operate the franchise.
• Members are expected to behave professionally and refrain from illegal, unethical or improper dealings or otherwise act contrary to the image of franchising or the FCA.
The FCA recognises that its members have different needs, and that different types of members should co-exist harmoniously. The success of franchising depends on successful franchisors, and this in turn, depends on profitable and happy franchisees. The FCA works constantly to ensure that all activities and services which benefit franchising will benefit the broader community - including franchisees, franchisors, employees and their local economies and communities.

Franchising in New Zealand
Franchising
the franchise sector of the New Zealand economy is substantially larger than most
people realise. the number of units operating with business format franchise systems has increased considerably since 2003 when a major survey was conducted. the Franchising New Zealand 2010 survey conducted by Massey university, Auckland and griffith university, queensland found 423 active franchise systems in New Zealand compared with an estimated 350 in 2003. the survey also estimated a total 23,600 franchisee units, which was a 92 per cent increase over the seven years.
graham Billings, Executive Director, Franchise Association of New Zealand
in new Zealand
The most recent survey, Franchising New Zealand 2012, however, found that system growth had slowed in the previous two years and that there were now approximately 446 active business format franchise systems. Whilst the number of franchise units had fallen slightly to 22,400, the level of employment in the franchising sector had grown by more than 25 per cent to over 100,000 people.
The franchise model is operated across all sectors of business. In New Zealand, franchising has comparatively fewer businesses in the retail sector compared with many other countries, but is comparatively stronger in home and business-to-business services. Indicative of the entrepreneurial spirit of New Zealanders, approximately 88.0 per cent of franchises operating here are home-grown
chAPtEr 16
77
and despite the economic situation, there are some franchise systems that are still experiencing growth.
Franchising in New Zealand continues to play an important role in the economy with an estimated contribution of between $19.4 billion and $21.0 billion in turnover.
thE FrANchisE AssociAtioN oF NEW ZEAlAND (FANZ)
If you are looking for a business opportunity or needing advice on franchising, our recommendation is that you don’t sign anything until you have asked the question: “Are you a member of the Franchise Association of New Zealand?”
Members of the Franchise Association are the franchise professionals, committed to uphold ‘Best Practice in Franchising’ and the Association works hard to promote the benefits of dealing with members, both for those looking to purchase a franchise and also those who need to gain professional advice
The benefit of FANZ membership for franchisees was recognised in the New Zealand Prospective Franchisees Survey*. The survey found that 75.7 per cent of prospective franchisees considered membership of FANZ important or very important, when considering a franchise to buy into.
As the peak body for the franchise community in New Zealand, the Association makes representations to Government on issues of concern to franchisors and franchisees including such issues as proposed legislation; new business support programmes and business taxation. The Association often conducts email surveys of members on key issues to gain valuable feedback prior to making a submission.
Unlike a number of other countries in the world, including Australia, franchising in New Zealand is governed by the same commercial laws as any other business. In 2008 the Ministry of Economic Development called for submissions on the possibility of introducing franchise specific regulations following a high profile fraud case. In 2009, however, the Minister of Commerce concluded that there was no need at that time for the introduction of franchise-specific regulations and went on to say that that there was little evidence of widespread problems in the sector. He drew
attention to the Franchise Association of New Zealand’s Code of Conduct as an area where self regulation was working.
Despite the substantial difference in the regulatory environments between New Zealand and Australia, the two 2012 surveys showed remarkably similar levels of franchising disputes.
BuyiNg your NEW ZEAlAND FrANchisE
Buying the right franchise can have many benefits over the stand-alone business, not least of which is that you can potentially purchase into a franchise system that has a proven track record and one where you will receive all the help you need to become successful.
As a prospective franchisee, an important part of your due diligence should be to establish whether or not the franchise you are considering is a Member of FANZ. Don’t be misled by a statement such as, “we are not members but we abide by their Codes” as we have no powers to intervene unless the franchise is actually a Member. You should also take the free online training course for prospective franchisees that you can access through the FANZ website and then search for the right franchise to buy through the FANZ web directory, buyafranchise.co.nz.
Of course, there are franchise systems such as McDonalds who are currently not in membership but who operate ethically and provide valuable business opportunities for the prospective franchisee. In all cases, however, you should ask the franchisor to explain to you why they are not members.
For a franchisor to gain membership of the Association requires that they submit their documentation for scrutiny to ensure that their Franchise Agreements contain all the elements required under the Association’s Codes and Rules. Some of the key elements that are required are:
• Full and proper disclosure of matters important for a prospective franchisee to know and understand.
• A seven-day cooling off period before a prospective franchisee is finally committed to the purchase.
• A requirement that the prospective franchisee produces a certificate their solicitor to the effect that they have
had the agreement explained to them – or a signed statement that they have declined to take independent legal advice.
• If things go wrong, compulsory mediation by a FANZ appointed experienced franchise mediator is a first step in dealing with the issue.
The Association’s independent Scrutineer carries out compliance checks on a biennial basis to ensure that documentation maintains the standards that are required.
Carrying out your due diligence on every aspect of your intended franchise system is vitally important. The New Zealand Prospective Franchisees* survey found that over 70 per cent of prospective franchisees met with three or more franchisors before making up their minds and nearly 75 per cent talked to three or more franchisees of their intended franchise system as part of their decision making process.
If your franchise system is in membership, you have the ability to make a formal complaint to the Complaints Panel if you believe that your franchisor is in breach of the Association’s Codes or Rules. The Complaints Panel is fully independent of the Board of FANZ and its members are experienced in franchising both from a legal and practical standpoint. If your complaint is upheld, the franchisor can be required to rectify the situation or face a range of penalties that are contained within the Association’s Code of Practice.
If the franchise you are going to purchase is from a Member of FANZ, you too will be required to sign up to the Association’s Code of Conduct and Code of Ethics to ensure that as a franchisee you undertake to maintain ‘Best Practice’.
In addition to standards and compliance, franchisors, franchisees and service provider members gain much from membership to the Association. Apart from the significant marketing advantage of being able to use the Association’s logo as a sign of credibility, membership also opens up a whole range of opportunities to advance their knowledge and learn from the experience of others. This is a unique advantage not available to non-member franchise systems and was clearly demonstrated at Annual Conferences
78
where first time attendees regularly comment that they are amazed by the amount of advice and information that was freely exchanged by members.
As a Member or the franchisee of a Member you have the opportunity to enter the prestigious annual awards, which culminate in a gala awards dinner in November each year. These awards are based on an internationally recognised business excellence system and not only provide you with the opportunity to showcase your business, but also gain valuable insight into the opportunities to improve your business from the feedback reports provided by the evaluators. There are entry categories for both franchise systems and franchisees and winners regularly use their success in marketing campaigns.
ExPortiNg your FrANchisE to NEW ZEAlAND
For an Australian franchisor coming into New Zealand it is a relatively straight forward process from a legal point of view. Most systems that come into New Zealand from Australia set up a local company both to protect intellectual property in New Zealand as well as to ensure a ‘foothold’ in New Zealand.
It is important to get trademarks registered in New Zealand as early as possible. It is not an expensive process but should be considered well before actually arriving in New Zealand.
If the Australian franchisor is operating directly in New Zealand then the franchise agreement should be reviewed by a New Zealand lawyer and made subject to New Zealand law and to New Zealand jurisdiction for ease of franchise rights enforcement. Reputable Australian systems that come here ensure that they have a disclosure document that is relevant to New Zealand circumstances as well as a cooling off period etc. A number of Australian systems have made, as a key feature of setting up in New Zealand, an early application to join the FANZ especially as the FANZ requirements for disclosure differ in some ways from those required under the Australian regulations.
Proper disclosure documents, cooling off period and mandatory mediation as a dispute resolution process are all part of the voluntary Code of Practice to which all FANZ members are required
to adhere. It certainly enhances the reputation of the system operating in New Zealand. Obviously, if a Master Franchisee is appointed in New Zealand then having that franchisee become a member of the FANZ is likely to be perceived as a system which respects the maintenance of high standards.
In spite of a minority of lawyers and accountants seeing franchising as something akin to the Wild West, the vast majority of lawyers, accountants and business brokers throughout New Zealand have a reasonable understanding of franchising and the benefits it can bring to franchisees. There is a growing number of lawyers, accountants and business brokers who specialise in franchising.
There is still a good deal of education to be undertaken for the public about avoiding doubtful franchise systems, but the trend is for specialised business brokers to promote healthy systems and to steer people away from the moonlight operators.
The majority of the banks in New Zealand now have a strong presence in the franchise industry and bear in mind that all the major banks in New Zealand are Australian owned. There are reputable franchise consultants in New Zealand with well-established track work records and for anyone who attends the annual FANZ conference it is manifest to observe that there is a strong and proactive congeniality within the franchise industry in New Zealand.
There are a small number of dedicated and respected franchise consultants in New Zealand who can be invaluable in modifying systems coming into this country. Involving their use can considerably diminish the likelihood of a legal claim being brought against a franchisor coming across from Australia.
Be aware that employment laws in New Zealand are similar to Australia and dismissing staff is not an easy process. Also New Zealand has an act called the Resource Management Act which, coupled with the Building Act, means that obtaining building consents for shop fit outs can be slow and expensive. It is vital to stress the need to do plenty of homework.
Obtaining sound taxation advice is essential before coming into New Zealand. There is a withholding tax system for payment of royalties and
other fees from New Zealand to Australia but there is plenty of advice available from accountants who understand the taxation laws between the two countries.
It is important to remember that GST applies to everything in New Zealand (even food items) and the tax structure here is somewhat different from Australia. For a start there is no such thing as stamp duty. The government Kiwi Saver superannuation scheme requires contributions from employers to be made when employees opt in to the scheme.
It is also important to know that we have the Personal Properties Securities Act which is a system of an online registration of all charges (e.g. what used to debentures for companies) against both individuals and companies as security for moneys lent and where goods and services are supplied on credit.
New Zealand has recently been named as the 5th highest ranking country based on the United Nations Development Programme which has regard to the standard of living of its people, its population’s access to knowledge and its population’s chances of living a long and healthy life.
There are many success stories for Australian systems entering into New Zealand. A point to remember, however, is that the disposable income of New Zealanders is not quite the same as that of Australians. Having said that, the lifestyle differences between Australia and New Zealand are not significant and so long as the homework and planning are done carefully then there are good prospects for Australian systems to enter into New Zealand and becoming successful.

IFG has been operational for over 40 years with franchisees and licensees in Australia, the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Ireland, New Zealand, Singapore, Mexico, and South Africa.The new concept, IFG 50/50 franchise, offers all the same great benefits as The Interface Financial Group “standard’ franchise, but with some very significant enhancements, and a lower entry level.IFG 50/50 franchisees syndicate all transactions 50/50 with IFG-the franchisor, and that means less working capital required to fund transactions; IFG does the bulk of the due diligence and the ‘paperwork’ for the transactions; and IFG 50/50 franchisees will concentrate their efforts on building the referral relationships – they do the ‘people work’. A very innovative leverage program has also been introduced to allow franchisees to grow their capital even faster. year established: 1972 number of franchise outlets: Over 150investment required: $50,000 - $100,000Training & support: Extensive local training and support provided Locations available: Opportunities exist nationwide for unit franchisees.

“Talking, and often
meeting with a franchisor,
and reading their detailed
disclosure material is
a must in any review
process.” David Banfield
“My advice is not to try
to compare and evaluate
two or three or more
businesses at the same
time.”
You need to determine
whether the business is
going to return sufficient
profit to justify the
purchase price. tim kilham
