Franchises as an Alternative

 May 3rd - Linn Area Credit Union

Have you ever wanted to start a business, but didn't have a clue where to start?  Well maybe a franchise is the way to go.  Find out by attending this Workshop from  SCORE.  We'll take you through the steps that may lead to the way to start your new business.  Sign up now, and find out what franchising is all about.  

What we’ll cover:  This workshop explains why franchises are so much more successful than most businesses started from scratch.  We will explore ways for you to evaluate and select the franchise with the best “fit” for you out of more than 3100 franchises available.  We will let you know:

  • The three ways to start a business
  • Advantages and disadvantages of each
  • What are the three necessary elements for business ownership
  • Questions you must ask yourself to be successful
  • A plan to select a franchise that best “fits” you
  • Questions to ask franchisors
  • Questions to ask franchisees
  • What to look for in the government required Franchise Disclosure Document

Not to be missed if you want  to be successful.  You get this right.....You Win.

This is an overall look at franchise businesses from a highly successful franchise business owner and SCORE volunteer.  There will be plenty of time for questions from the attendees.
