You want to run your own business and earn extra income, but like most aspiring entrepreneurs you don’t have a brand name or customer base, those take years to develop. Or do they? Franchising allows you to have instant brand recognition, a built in customer base, and the support of the franchisor. Owning a franchise also gives you a set of procedures to work from, doing the right things the first time, not after multiple failures. You will have a dedicated staff to provide you assistance, ensuring you are not alone when difficult times arise. Franchisors can also receive marketing and technical support, reducing costs and increasing income.
What might start as a way to supplement your income could give you the opportunity to leave corporate America and gain control of your income, work schedule and personal goals. You may work long hours but you could find your way to financial freedom and a balance between work and family life.
