What are the Advantages of a franchise?

The basic advantages of owning a franchise are very straight forward. The

franchisor has hopefully walked the path you are about to walk and can tell

you how to prepare, what to avoid and how to best traverse to have maximum

results. You are given tools, advice and ongoing assistant to shorten the

learning curve and drive you to faster and hopefully overall better

results. Some franchises offer other items such as proprietary equipment,

unique systems, outsourced services, name recognition, national marketing

plans, local support and buying power.
