BEST PRACTICES ON BUYING A FRANCHISE BUSINESS

"Owning" the American Dream can become a reality:  every 8 minutes a new franchise location opens in the U.S., 1 out of every 12 businesses in America are franchises, and 50% of all retail sales are through -- yep, a franchise.  Yet, with 3,000 different franchises covering some 300 different industries, determining which one "fits" you and your goals can be daunting, and your career journey doesn't necessarily have to end with "Golden Arches."  There are lots of paths to success!

Jenny Sutter will walk you through the pros and cons of buying a franchise -- if it fits your life and lifestyle!
