Franchising: An Exciting Alternative to a Corporate Career
Overview: Franchise ownership is one of the fastest growing segments of business ownership, and with good reason. It is affordable, offers a proven method of success, allows for easy entry, and provides options for a variety of backgrounds and skill levels. But before you take the plunge, attend this interactive session and walk away with a better understanding of how franchising works and if it’s the right option for you.
You will learn and discuss:
- What a franchise is and how it differs from ownership of an independent business
- Critical factors in achieving success with a franchise
- How to evaluate potential franchises and determine whether they are right for you
- Costs of purchasing and operating a franchise, and potential sources of financing
- Common franchise myths
We will also leave time for your questions.
