FRANCHISES SURVIVE AND THRIVE

ince March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected nearly every aspect of our lives and businesses. As we move into a post-pandemic world in 2022, hope is in the air. The businesses most well-equipped for uncertainty— economic and otherwise—and most prepared to quickly come roaring back, are franchises. The franchise model provides entrepreneurial Canadians with opportunities to go into business for themselves but not by themselves, with much-needed support behind them. If you want to make your dreams of business ownership become a reality, then this Franchise Canada Directory is a great place to start. The articles found on pages 12 through 70 provide franchising fundamentals to help you get started, from choosing the franchise that’s right for you, to information on conducting proper due diligence before investing in a franchise, to franchise financing, and hiring your team. We share a wide range of background information, tips, and advice to help you gain the franchising knowledge you need to make the best possible investment decision. The Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) is the authoritative voice of franchising in Canada, and has been equipping entrepreneurs with the knowledge and tools they need to find success for more than 50 years. This Directory contains more than 1,300 listings from our more than 700 corporate members, including emerging concepts and iconic brands in more than 50 different categories. The easy-to-use listings (starting on page 75) are arranged alphabetically by category, and contain comprehensive information about each opportunity, including contact information, number of units, investment amounts, available territories, and more. The valuable information contained in these listings has been provided directly by the franchise systems. It’s also important to call in the professionals to help ensure you’re making the right franchising decisions. This Directory includes listings for CFA Franchise Support Services and Suppliers, who can play a pivotal role in guiding your franchising journey. This section of the Directory, starting on page 231, helps you connect with

the services you’ll need to carefully complete the due diligence process and beyond. As you read through this Directory, note the CFA member logo that highlights the CFA’s many corporate members. As members of the Association, these companies voluntarily pledge to promote excellence in franchising by upholding the CFA Code of Ethics (see page 10 for more details). Beyond this Directory, the CFA offers many other valuable resources. You can find online exclusive educational articles, Franchise Canada Chats podcast episodes, and Franchise Canada TV learning videos on FranchiseCanada.Online, where you can also sign up for Franchise Canada E-News, a biweekly newsletter filled with content from Franchise Canada magazine, franchising opportunities, industry news, and more.

CODE OF ETHICS

T

he Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) is dedicated to encouraging and promoting excellence in franchising in Canada. Each member of the Association agrees to abide by the CFA Code of Ethics and to further the Association’s goals of encouraging and promoting ethical franchising in Canada. Each member of the Association agrees to comply with the spirit of this Code of Ethics in its general course of conduct and in carrying out its general policies, standards, and practices. The following are considered by the Association to be important elements of ethical franchising practices: 1. Franchise system and franchise support services members should fully comply with Federal and Provincial laws, and with the policies of the Canadian Franchise Association. 2. A franchisor should provide prospective franchisees with full and accurate written disclosure of all material facts and information pertaining to the matters required to be disclosed in advance to prospective franchisees about the franchise system a reasonable time [at least fourteen (14) days] prior to the franchisee executing any binding agreement relating to the award of the franchise. 3. A ll matters material to the franchise relationship should be contained in one or more written agreements, which should clearly set forth the terms of the relationship and the respective rights and obligations of the parties. 4. A franchisor should select and accept only those franchisees who, upon reasonable investigation, appear to possess the basic skills, education, personal qualities and financial resources adequate to perform and fulfil the needs and requirements of the franchise. Franchise systems and franchise support services members of the Association should not discriminate based on race, colour, religion, national origin, disability, age, gender or any other factors prohibited by law. 5. ­­­ A franchisor should provide reasonable guidance, training, support, and supervision over the business activities of franchisees for the purposes of safeguarding the public interest and the ethical image of franchising, and of maintaining the integrity of the franchise system for the benefit of all parties having an interest in it. 6. Fairness should characterize all dealings between a franchisor and its franchisees. Where reasonably appropriate under the circumstances, a franchisor should give notice to its franchisees of any contractual

10

default and grant the franchisee reasonable opportunity to remedy the default. 7. A franchisor and its franchisees should make reasonable efforts to resolve complaints, grievances, and disputes with each other through fair and reasonable direct communication, and where reasonably appropriate under the circumstances, mediation, or other alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. 8. A franchisor and a franchise support services member should encourage prospective franchisees to seek legal, financial, and business advice prior to signing the franchise agreement. 9. A franchisor should encourage prospective franchisees to contact existing franchisees to gain a better understanding of the requirements and benefits of the franchise. 10. A franchisor should encourage open dialogue with franchisees through franchise advisory councils and other communication mechanisms. A franchisor should not prohibit a franchisee from forming, joining, or participating in any franchisee association, or penalize a franchisee who does so. 11. A franchise support services member that provides products or services to a franchisor or franchisee should encourage the franchises to comply with the spirit of this Code of Ethics. A franchise support services member should not offer or provide products or services if legislative or professional qualification is required to do so unless the franchise support services member has such qualification.

LOOK FOR EXCELLENCE As you investigate the many franchise opportunities available to you, you will see a special logo featured in franchise literature, on franchising websites, and in franchise tradeshow booths. This logo identifies franchise systems and franchise support services/suppliers as members of the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA). You should be on the lookout for this symbol when researching franchise systems or assembling a team of franchise support professionals to assist in your search. CFA encourages and promotes excellence in franchising in Canada, and members of the Association voluntarily agree to follow the CFA’s Code of Ethics in pursuit of these goals.

Together

The Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) Helping everyday Canadians realize the dream of building their own business through franchising What is the Canadian Franchise Association? Back in 1967, as Canada’s centennial was being celebrated, a group of franchise business owners recognized a need for a national umbrella organization committed to the growth, enhancement, promotion, and development of ethical franchising across the country. The Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) was founded with this mission and these principles, and is now the only national trade association serving the franchise industry and the needs of franchisors, franchisees, and anyone considering opportunities in the franchise sector. The CFA is now the recognized authority on franchising in Canada, and represents members and iconic Canadian brands across the country, including Pizza Pizza, M&M Food Market, and McDonald’s Canada. Our purpose: To help everyday Canadians realize the dream of building their own business The CFA’s mission is to amplify the understanding and power of franchising in Canada by advocating on the issues that impact this dream, connecting people with opportunities in franchising, and delivering learning opportunities that make the industry stronger. The CFA

produces the annual Franchise Canada Directory, and Franchise Canada magazine, considered the country’s most trusted franchise resources. The bi-monthly magazine is a digital publication, with each issue available as a flipbook on FranchiseCanada.Online. The annual directory is a print publication that’s available on newsstands and in bookstores throughout the country. Prospective franchisees can also learn more about franchising through Franchise Canada E-News, a bi-monthly digital newsletter; the Franchise Canada Chats podcast, now in its fifth season; Franchise Canada TV, which features interviews and educational videos; and more resources that can be found at FranchiseCanada.Online. The Association also offers Canada’s only tradeshows that exclusively feature CFA member franchise systems. After going virtual during the COVID-19 pandemic, live Franchise Canada Shows will be back in 2022, starting with shows in Toronto and Calgary. These shows provide Canadians with the opportunity to meet face to face with franchisors and learn about their proven business opportunities. The CFA’s wealth of knowledge flows, in part, from its prominent role in the nation’s business community.

We help everyday Canadians realize the dream of building their own businesses and connect people with opportunities in franchising.

CFA members represent thousands of business outlets across the country. As a whole, the franchise industry employs almost two million people. About half of these employees work under the banners of hundreds of CFA member franchise systems. What can the CFA do for you? One of the CFA’s primary roles is to help prospective franchisees make the best decision when investing in a franchise by providing resources and education about franchising. The CFA’s websites (www.cfa.ca, www. LookforaFranchise.ca, and FranchiseCanada.Online) offer valuable information and resources about franchising, as well as detailed listings in its online member directories. These directories are separated into franchise systems and franchise support services providers (e.g. franchise lawyers, accountants, consultants, etc.). CFA members represent a diverse cross-section of franchise systems in Canada, ranging from very large, established operations to smaller regional concepts. When you deal with CFA members, you can be confident you’ll be treated fairly because all members must adhere to a strict Code of Ethics. Franchisors can become members only after they undergo a review process performed by a committee of their peers. Members join the CFA voluntarily, as franchise sys-

So Many Opportunities Made up of thousands of small businesses in every community from coast to coast, the franchising sector is the 12th largest contributor to the Canadian economy. The Canadian franchise industry is estimated to have almost 1,300 brands and more than 76,000 franchise locations across a variety of sectors.

tems are not obliged to belong to any trade organization. CFA members share the conviction that their commitment to excellence in franchising improves the industry as a whole for everyone involved, including franchisors, franchisees, suppliers, and customers. Realistically, however, what the Association can’t do is protect potential investors from making bad business decisions. The CFA doesn’t have specific punitive powers to use against members if they violate the Association’s Code of Ethics. Members, however, may use the confidential, complimentary services of a third-party and neutral Ombudsman (available through www.cfa.ca) to help resolve disagreements between franchisors and franchisees. We fulfill our mission through our four brand pillars – leadership, trust, credibility, and opportunity. Through these pillars, we create a unified force that represents different elements coming together to create and grow as a multifaceted whole. Working under the motto of “Growing Together™,” we embrace the concept of growing your business with the support of the greater franchise community through CFA membership. This holds true to the concept of franchising – that a franchisee and franchisor can grow their businesses through partnership. Together, we all grow our businesses, our expertise, and our ability to advocate for a thriving future. While franchise concepts operating in the food service category dominate the industry, there’s more to franchising than just fast food. You’d be hard-pressed to find a Canadian neighbourhood devoid of a franchise business serving its residents. With franchise systems operating in more than 50 different sectors, Canadians from coast to coast are interacting with franchise systems daily, from coffee shops to cleaners and day cares to restaurants, hotels, and so much more, the franchise business model is an important part of Canadians’ day-to-day lives.

Why Choose a CFA Member? Investing in a franchise that’s committed to excellence

F

or entrepreneurs looking to be in business for themselves, but not by themselves, franchising provides the opportunity to run a business and be your own boss, while being backed by an established system and brand. Taking the first step towards business ownership through franchising can be daunting. For a prospective franchisee, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the thousands of new and emerging franchise concepts available on the market. Whether you’re interacting with brands at the Franchise Canada Show or flipping through the pages of the annual Franchise Canada Directory listings, it’s abundantly clear that there’s no shortage of exciting franchising opportunities out there; it’s just a matter of finding the right fit for your goals. At the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA), we believe strongly that the franchise model is ultimately about people. It’s about everyday Canadians, working hand in hand within a franchisor-franchisee relationship to share success. Each one of our members is committed to this ideal. As members of the Association, CFA member franchises voluntarily pledge to uphold CFA’s core values of excellence in franchising through the

18

CFA’s Code of Ethics (page 10), which ensures that our members are dedicated to helping everyday Canadians realize the dream of building their own business through leadership, opportunity, trust, and credibility. By joining the CFA, these franchises have made the conscious decision as an organization to be the best franchisors they can be. Here are a few reasons why, as a prospective franchisee, you should keep your eyes open for the CFA member logo that highlights the CFA’s many corporate members. CFA members strive for excellence Franchisees have made a life-changing financial and time investment in purchasing a franchise. It’s up to franchisors to equip themselves with the right educational and networking tools so that they can work to live up to their promises to franchisees.

Franchising 101: An Introduction to Franchising

F

ranchising is an attractive and powerful way for Canadians to make their business dreams become reality and achieve success as small business owners. Through the proven business concept and support provided by the franchisor, franchisees are able to be in business for themselves, but with the support and assistance of the franchisor, the advantage of the franchise system’s past success, and access to the knowledge and experience of a network of franchisee peers. Franchising is about sharing success. The success of a franchisee leads to the further success of the franchisor and the franchise system as a whole. When you invest in a franchise, you align yourself with a brand that may already enjoy established consumer awareness and loyalty in the Canadian marketplace. This instant brand recognition can bring many advantages, including a stronger position when applying for a business loan. As a franchisee, you’ll benefit from the license to use the franchise system’s proven branding, trademarks, and proprietary products and/or services. A franchise also provides you with the advantage of a tried-and-true system and an operations manual that fully explains how you’re to replicate the franchise’s system at your location. While it’s impossible to eliminate all risk, if you work and follow that system, you can reduce the risk of business failure and increase your likelihood of success.

As a franchisee, you’re considered a small business owner, and it’s important for you to assume a leadership role in your business. By joining an already established system, you don’t have to invent the business from the ground up like you would as an independent business. The franchise system can save you time and money by keeping you up to date on your market. Through the franchisor, you can stay on top of business trends, research and development, new marketing initiatives, and changes in consumer tastes or behaviours. Being a franchisee means there’s strength in numbers. Many franchise systems have an established supply chain and strong relationships with suppliers. By ordering your stock, supplies, and equipment through approved suppliers as a member of your franchise system, you may receive the benefit of preferential pricing or special delivery. Joining a franchise system also gives you a network of peers upon whose knowledge and experience you can draw. If you encounter an issue or have a question, your franchise system colleagues are just a phone call or email away. What are the key responsibilities of the franchisee? While system-specific responsibilities required of the franchisee will be outlined in the franchise agreement, there are a few key responsibilities that are generally required of the majority of franchisees.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


FRANCHISING 101: AN INTRODUCTION TO FRANCHISING The franchisee should: • Follow the franchisor’s standards, methods, procedures, techniques, and specifications to ensure consistency; • Pay a fee (typically an initial franchisee fee and ongoing royalties) to the franchisor for the right to use the franchisor’s trademarks (brand) and business system; • Take care of accounting, local marketing, staffing, and the other administrative aspects of operating a business; • Invest their time, particularly during the start-up phase, by working hands-on in their business to fully understand the operational side of the franchise; and • Work in partnership with the franchisor, allowing for effective two-way communication between the two parties and a mutually beneficial relationship; What are the key responsibilities of the franchisor? While the franchise agreement will outline the specific responsibilities and obligations of the franchisor, there are a few key responsibilities of the franchisor that apply in most scenarios. The franchisor should:

• Undertake to provide franchisees with operating systems and support services to help their businesses grow in ways that are effective, efficient, and profitable; • Continue to evolve the franchise system through research and development of new products and services; • Handle all brand advertising and (usually) provide franchisees with assistance for their local marketing activities; • Protect and manage the brand and its trademarks, while ensuring consistency and quality standards are maintained by all franchisees in the system; and • Provide initial and ongoing training and support.

The Franchise Advantage

From support to resiliency, here’s why franchising could be the best model for you

I

f you, like many Canadians, dream of running your own business, franchising could be the perfect way to make that dream a reality. Just like the owners of independent businesses, franchisees run their own business, manage their staff and operations, and are involved in their communities. Unlike independent business owners, however, franchisees also have the support of a franchise system, and access to the knowledge and experience of a network of franchisee peers. In fact, there are many advantages to the franchise business model. Supports for success Franchising is about sharing success. The achievements of a franchisee leads to the further success of the franchisor, and the franchise system as a whole. When you invest in a franchise, you gain access to consumer awareness and loyalty in the Canadian marketplace, be it nationally, regionally, or locally. This instant brand recognition can bring many advantages, including a stronger position when applying for a business loan. As a franchisee, you’ll benefit by being licensed to use the franchise system’s proven branding, trademarks, and proprietary products, services, recipes, etc. A franchise also provides you with the advantage of a tried-and-true system, and an operations manual that fully explains how you’re to replicate the franchise’s system at your location. While it’s impossible to eliminate all risks, if you work hard and follow the system, you can reduce the risk of business failure and increase your likelihood of success. The franchise system can save you time and money by keeping you up to date on what’s happening in your market. Through the franchisor, you can stay on top of things such as business trends, research and development, new marketing initiatives, and changes in customer tastes or behaviours. This allows you (and other franchisees in the system) to focus on the day-to-day operation of your business, knowing that you have this shared knowledge available when you need it.

22

As a franchisee, you also have strength in numbers. Many franchise systems have an established supply chain in place, along with established relationships with suppliers. By ordering your stock, supplies, and equipment through approved suppliers as a member of your franchise system, you may receive the benefit of preferential pricing or special delivery. Joining a franchise system also gives you a network of peers upon whose knowledge and experience you can draw. If you encounter an issue or have a question, your franchise system colleagues are just a phone call or email away. It’s likely that they may have encountered the same issue, and will be able to provide the appropriate advice to help you. In many systems, there are opportunities for franchisees to come together to share ideas, experiences, and best practices as part of a franchisee advisory group or at a franchisee convention. With franchising, there’s a tried-and-true system in place, with detailed operations that allow the business to be easily replicated in communities across the country. As a result, consumers recognize and are familiar with these franchise brands, and franchisees can rest assured knowing that the system is providing a relevant product or service to this consumer base. Weathering the economic storm Franchising has also proven itself to be a resilient business model in difficult economic times. During the Great Recession of the late 2000s, according to Franchise Canada Directory listings, there was a 6.5 per cent increase in franchise and corporate locations in Canada, and a 23 per cent increase in franchise opportunities (brands) between 2008 and 2010. Some franchise systems successfully expanded during that time. More recently, franchises have proven to be some of the most adaptable businesses during COVID-19. No one can deny that the pandemic has changed the way we do business. But franchises have stepped up to those unprecedented challenges and taken them head on.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


THE FRANCHISE ADVANTAGE Because franchisees operate within a proven franchise system, franchise brands can more easily provide much-needed support during challenging times. While an individual franchisee may not have experience with a crisis like the pandemic, the franchisor has likely navigated through turbulent times in the past and can use this insight to help its network of franchisees. As challenges arise, the franchise head office team not only has valuable knowledge to share with the network, but they also have the research, contacts, and resources they need to adapt and innovate their operations to meet the specific challenges, whether that’s changing a market strategy or updating the product offering. For example, if a food franchise needs to adapt by also offering grocery products to customers, it’s a lot easier for the franchisor to determine the strategy and communicate it to individual franchisees than it is for a franchisee to test out a strategy while trying to keep the day-to-day business afloat. While there are many downfalls to an economic crisis, it can also bring opportunity. Affordable real estate is hard to find in a hot economy, but when the economic climate cools, more real estate can become available, and

at a more affordable rate. This is especially important for new franchisees, who can focus more on building their business rather than worrying about being able to pay their rent during their pivotal first year. During an economic downturn, Canadians who’ve been hit hard by tough times don’t have a lot of disposable income. The good news for franchisees is that franchises often provide mid-market goods that are still accessible to consumers when budgets are tight, including affordable food service and retail options. Further, franchises provide services that consumers always need, from healthcare and cleaning services to haircare and fitness. Certain franchises also provide essential services, including shipping services and pet care, and remained open during the pandemic. What’s more, tough economic times won’t stop Canadians’ entrepreneurial spirit. For some, the shake-up of the pandemic—whether that meant a job loss, time working from home, or just a break to re-evaluate one’s life—showed them that they didn’t want to go back to the corporate world, and many are now looking to make their business dreams become a reality. For many, franchising is a strong candidate for making that happen.

10 REASONS TO BECOME A FRANCHISEE

franchise provides you with the advantage of a tried-and-true system and an operations manual that fully explains how you’re to replicate the franchise’s system at your location. While it’s impossible to eliminate all risk, if you work and follow that system, you can reduce the risk of business failure and increase your likelihood of success. Each year, thousands of people across Canada invest in franchise opportunities for a multitude of personal, financial, and vocational reasons. Here, we provide 10 of the many benefits that becoming a franchisee can bring. 1. No ‘reinvention of the wheel’ required A franchise prides itself on the system that it’s developed and tested over time. When you invest in a franchise, you gain access to and use of its operations systems, products/services, logos, and more. If you were starting your own independent business, the onus would be solidly on you to figure out all the aspects of the business, including what works, and what doesn’t. With a franchise, you’ll have the road map to recreate the brand’s success at your location — providing you follow it to the letter. 2. Trademarks and patents A good franchisor will have already secured the trademarks and patents related to its brand. Franchisees are then licensed to use the franchise’s branding, trademarks

24

and proprietary products, services, recipes, etc. This can save you time and money during the start-up process, as there will be no need for you to go through the legal and governmental processes to secure the appropriate rights. You can also rest assured that your rights to make use of your brand’s trademarks and patents are enshrined in your franchise agreement. 3. Territory rights In most cases, you, as a franchisee, will be awarded an exclusive territory, giving you exclusive rights to offer your product or service within your designated area. The territory is designed to reduce competition, and can vary in size and scope. (A territory can be small, like a specific shopping centre, or large, like a geographic region.) Your territorial rights should be set out in and protected by your franchise agreement. 4. Start-up costs estimated In an independent business, you would be charting new waters. With a franchise, others have gone before you and can provide you with an example of what to expect in terms of start-up costs. Though each franchisee’s experience can vary and there’s always the possibility of unexpected or unforeseen expenses, your franchisor should be able to provide you with start-up cost estimates that are specific to the system.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


10 REASONS TO BECOME A FRANCHISEE 5. Franchisor support and training As a franchise system requires consistency in quality and service from location to location, most systems will train new franchisees on the basics of operating their location. The duration, breadth, and depth of the initial training may vary by system, but most will offer education on aspects such as operational procedures, accounting, marketing, computer systems, and more. 6. Consumer awareness Any business that opens in a new area, be it a franchise or an independent business, would expect to have to conduct local marketing initiatives to introduce the business to local consumers. A franchise, however, can bring with it pre-existing consumer awareness; though the business may be new to the area, potential customers may already be familiar with the brand, whether through other locations or through its regional or national marketing. While local marketing and community outreach will usually factor into your franchise location’s marketing mix, having an established base of consumers who have experience with your brand can give you a leg up. A brand’s history of success may also give you an advantage

when applying to a financial institution for a business loan to finance your location. 7. Strength in numbers Another advantage of a franchise system is working with suppliers and other merchants that have already been vetted for quality, pricing, reliability, and consistency. As a member of a growing franchise network with group purchasing power, you can gain immediate access to established relationships with vendors and may even enjoy perks such as preferred pricing or special delivery. 8. Peer network and support Being part of a franchise system also means you have a pool of knowledgeable peers who are just a phone call or email away. If you’re experiencing an issue or challenge with your business, chances are there are other franchisees in your system who have encountered the same or a similar issue, and who will have firsthand advice for overcoming it. Some franchise systems have more formalized ways for franchisees to interact, such as online forums, franchisee advisory councils, or franchisee meetings and conventions.

Franchise Canada Directory 2022

10 REASONS TO BECOME A FRANCHISEE 9 . Research and development Through the franchisor, franchisees can be kept up to date on business trends and consumer tastes and behaviours. They can also benefit from their system’s research and development initiatives for things such as new products and services, technology, and marketing. With the franchisor looking after this side of things, franchisees can focus on the day-to-day operation of their location while knowing that they’ll still be on the leading edge in their industry and marketplace. 10. Small business ownership In addition to the reasons already mentioned, don’t forget that you’ll also be a small business owner, operating your own business with the brand and support of the franchisor backing you up. As the saying goes, in franchising, you’re in business for yourself, but not by yourself!

26

EXPLORE, INVESTIGATE, AND EVALUATE As wonderful as these reasons are (and there are more that could be added to this list), all these advantages may be for naught if a prospective franchisee doesn’t fully investigate the franchise system before signing on. Franchising is a business model that brings with it many benefits and challenges, so it’s important to make sure you have all the facts and information available before taking the plunge.

Meet Your Franchise Match

How to prepare for and evaluate your meeting with the franchisor

A

s a prospective franchisee, you understand that carrying out the proper due diligence is critical to your future success. That’s why you’ve conducted thorough research on the franchise brands and opportunities you believe will help you realize the dream of operating your own business. Through this research, you’ve pinpointed the opportunity that resonates with you best, and have been in contact with the head office team to learn more. With both parties enthusiastic and engaged, it’s time to take the due diligence process to the next level. They say a franchise agreement is like a marriage, with two different sides coming together to create something of value for all involved. This makes it vitally important for you, as a prospective franchisee, to meet with the key people you’ll work with if you enter into this franchise relationship. Just as you’re evaluating the company, they’ll also be gauging your fit within the system’s culture to help ensure a good match. The best way to accomplish this is by meeting face-to-face with the franchise support team at their head office, as part of the franchise discovery day. Here are five tips to help you prepare for this pivotal meeting with the franchise team, so you can put your best franchising foot forward. 1. Do your homework. While the franchisor will expect you to have questions about the brand and opportunity, they’ll also want to see that you’ve already done your own research prior to meeting in person. Bring any documentation of your research, along

with notes you’ve made along the way. You should be ready to talk about your experience and qualifications, as well as with what you’ve already learned about the brand. 2. Ask the right questions. Franchisors will be able to learn a lot about you and how well you’ve prepared based on the type of questions that you ask in the face-to-face meeting. Write down any questions you have as you conduct your research and bring them along. Posing thoughtful questions based on the investigations you’ve made shows the franchisor that you’re thorough, proactive, and committed to learning more about their system. 3. Be enthusiastic. Successful franchisees are those who are passionate about their franchise brand and the product or service it provides. Be sure to showcase your knowledge and enthusiasm for the concept in your meeting. Don’t worry about whether you’re an expert yet, because you’ll receive operational training when the time comes. What can’t be trained is a genuine passion for the brand and excitement about providing a high-quality, consistent experience for the brand’s customers. 4. Showcase your professionalism. Franchise systems are looking for franchisees who will act as ambassadors for the brand. This means they’ll be looking for professional candidates who look polished and can communicate clearly. Franchisors want to know that you’re organized, courteous, and would represent their brand well in the marketplace.

MEET YOUR FRANCHISE MATCH 5. B e proactive. Choosing to invest in a franchise is a decision that can’t be taken lightly. You can show the franchisor you’re interested and taking the process seriously by enlisting the help of franchise support professionals. In addition to providing you with the support, knowledge, and guidance you’ll need throughout the process, consulting with experts, like a franchise lawyer or accountant, will indicate to the franchise system that you’re a conscientious and serious candidate who’s proactively seeking the support needed to make the most informed decision possible. While each franchise system will have its own unique list of obligations, prerequisites, and requirements, you should always plan to bring along these intangibles, along with the information you’ve gathered as you conducted your due diligence, to all meetings with franchise systems. Evaluating the franchise brand Once you’ve met with the franchise support team at the brand’s head office, it’s time to take stock of what you’ve learned and make a final decision about whether you’d like to move forward with this opportunity. You’ll want

THE TIME IS NOW Start a Commercial Cleaning Business Find your plan at janiking.ca 28

to review your notes and everything you’ve learned throughout this process. Do you have all of the answers you need to move forward? If not, plan to follow up and ask any further questions so you can make the best possible decision. As you evaluate your experience with the franchisor, here are some questions to consider: • Do you have enough passion for this brand and its offering to act as a brand ambassador for the years to come? • How do you feel about the people you met from the franchise support team? Are you comfortable working with these people, especially as you navigate any challenges? • Does the culture of the system match your expectations? Does it fit with your own personality and unique requirements? • Do you have any “gut” feelings that are telling you this is the right opportunity for you? Are there any “red flags” that are causing you to rethink any elements of this partnership? Beyond your meeting with the franchise team, you should also have conversations with existing franchisees to get their take on being a part of the system. It’s important to ask them questions so you can learn about how their experience compares with what you’ve discussed with the franchisor. You should speak with several franchisees as part of this validation process and should include franchisees who are performing at different levels (i.e. speak with those who have lower sales, along with the top performers). Before you sign the franchise agreement, you need to be 100 per cent ready to move forward with your franchise purchase. Take the full 14 days to review the agreement and all supporting materials, and don’t forget to enlist the help of your team of franchise support professionals.

The Importance of Franchise Due Diligence Investing in a franchise is a major decision, and not every franchise will be right for every individual. That’s why it’s essential for you to fully investigate the franchise systems in which you’re interested. Part of the due diligence process will likely include meeting with representatives from franchise systems. Here are a few critical questions that you should be able to answer or have answered to your satisfaction about the franchise system as you research the brand and meet with key members of the head office team: - What makes the franchisor’s product or service unique? - How many years has the franchisor been operating? How many units do they have? - How does the franchisor choose franchisees? How are qualifications reviewed? - What kind of support, including initial and ongoing training and operational assistance, does the franchisor provide? - Is the franchise system a member of the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA)?

BUSINESS PLAN AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT BASICS

R

egardless of the franchise opportunity you choose to pursue, you need to map out your path to business success before getting started. By establishing a business plan, you’re signalling to lenders and the franchise system that you’ve established and understand the tools you need to succeed. You’re ready to work hard and do what it takes to make your business dreams become a reality. At the Franchise Canada Show in Calgary back in January 2020, John Leavitt, partner at BDO, shared information that prospective franchisees can use to establish a strong business plan and kick-start their franchising careers. As the national franchise industry leader at BDO, Leavitt has extensive experience working in the franchise industry, helping clients with their accounting, tax, and advisory needs. Here, Leavitt shares what you need to know as you look to build the business plan that can put you on the path to franchising success. Who should write the business plan? When you realized that your bank requires a business plan to provide you with financing options, your immediate thought was likely that you don’t know where to

30

begin. You may be tempted to find someone to do this for you, but ultimately, this responsibility lies with you. You can seek assistance from franchise professionals, but you need to understand and present what your plans are for the business, rather than someone else’s. It’s important to build a business plan because you want to map out and ensure your business is going to succeed. This is a crucial part of the due diligence process that can improve your chances for building a profitable franchise business. Your business plan should include: 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The executive summary should: • Describe the franchise you intend to purchase; • Include the background and track record of the franchisor and other existing franchisees; and • Include a background of your products and services, while identifying your core market. If you’re looking to join an established franchise, you’ll likely want to focus on that. If it’s a newer franchise system, you should focus on the market trends and opportunity available.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


BUSINESS PLAN AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT BASICS 2. MANAGEMENT TEAM PROFILE This is the most important part of a business plan for many lenders. The management team profile should: • Describe your skills and experience; •E xplain why you’re suited to own and operate this franchise; and • I nclude the same information for any other members of your management team. This is the place to highlight any attributes that make you particularly suited for this franchise, and to share any details about previous business success. The more the lender believes in you, the more likely they are to provide the financing you need. 3. DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES The description of your products or services should include: • Featured benefits; •E xplanation of how your product or service differs from those of your competitors; and •O utline how you’ll deliver these products and services at ground level. Here, you should provide the specific details about the product or service that your franchise will be providing, along with what sets your offering apart from others in the market. 4. CORE MARKET INFORMATION This section should: • Describe your core market sector; •O utline your current competitors and future prospects; • Itemize strengths and how you’ll use them; • I temize weaknesses and how you’ll address and strengthen them; • Estimate the market share you plan to achieve; and •D escribe your existing customer base. While the bank will want this information, it’s also important for you to have the answers to the following questions: Who’s your competition? What do they do well? What do they not do well? How are you going to stand out? Is your market trending up or down? 5. DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS The description of operations should: • Describe the premises where you’ll operate; •E xplain how you’ll produce your products or services; and •R efer to location, property, facilities, leases, employees, insurance, technology, equipment, and suppliers. These are all crucial details that need to be determined before you get started. Location can be a particularly important one, and if this is the case for you, you

Cash flow forecasting: A key tool for the business plan and beyond The base of a cash flow forecast is the anticipated income and expenses of the franchise. If you’re purchasing a new franchise location, you can determine the expected revenues and costs by doing your research, including talking to the franchisor and other franchisees in the system. Once you start to get a picture of the numbers, you can do a sensitivity analysis, wherein you carry out multiple cash flow scenarios: one based on high sales, one based on low sales, and one in the middle. This helps you determine what targets you need to hit and what sales are required for you to make or lose money. Along with a complete accounting of cash requirements for the franchise, identify the sources of funding, as well as the relevant financing terms. •F inancing for most new franchise companies comes from the owners, supplemented by friends and family members, along with some bank financing. Investors or lenders expect owners to personally assume some of the risk with a solid self-financed capital base of 30 to 50 per cent of the total debt. •T o secure the funds, lenders may require a second-charge mortgage on residential property or personal guarantees up to the maximum amount of the loan. This points out the importance of reducing the risk of undercapitalization, and why the business plan should detail the amount of funding required, how the funds will be used, and when investors and lenders can expect a return on their investment.

BUSINESS PLAN AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT BASICS should provide as many details as you can about your location and the role it’ll play in your success. 6. OTHER SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS Other supporting documents to include are: • Your resume, and those of the key members of your management team; • Job descriptions; • Credit reports; • Letters of reference; • Letters of intent; and • Leases/contracts and other legal documents, as they pertain to the franchise you’re purchasing. 7. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Most businesses fail because they run out of cash. If you don’t want to follow suit, you need to make sure that you complete a thorough financial analysis to ensure that you have a viable plan based on reasonable assumptions. This is not only for your own sake, but also because the bank will need to have total confidence to move forward, and they’ll find that with reasonable financial forecasts that show how you’re going to become profitable.

32

Your financial advisor can be particularly helpful with preparing and itemizing this part of your business plan. The financial section should: • Address the financial potential viability of the business; • Include monthly budget and cash flow projections/analysis; • Describe your current financial situation; and • Include a personal net worth statement that lists all of your personal assets and liabilities. The financial section needs to show that your business is viable, which means that it’s going to be profitable. It should include cash flow projections (see sidebar on previous page) and information about your financial situation. Some terms that will come up as you complete the financial section are: Pro forma financial statements (including balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement) should be prepared for the short term (monthly statements for 12 months) and long term (three to five years; quarterly for the first year). These should be based on realistic assumptions to account for the typical delays and challenges experienced by every business start-up.

These ratios will be used to identify both performance strengths, as well as emerging problems that could threaten the health of individual franchisees or of the entire franchise system. When purchasing a franchise system, the key costs that should be considered in the financial section of the business plan include: • Legal fees; • Accounting fees to prepare the appropriate financial projections; • Marketing costs including plans, website, print materials, tradeshows, etc.; • Inventory purchases; • Land and/or building and equipment; • Staff; • Working capital reserves to cover operating losses until the business is capable of generating sufficient revenue;

• Monthly overhead for six to 12 months; • Personal living expenses for six to 12 months; and • Financing costs. It’s important to remember that it often takes months for income to come in regularly. This means it’s essential to have adequate capitalization to reduce the risk of franchise failure. Your business plan should include a comprehensive section on financial requirements, including detailed estimates of all anticipated start-up costs until the projected breakeven point. The bottom line Ultimately, your business plan should assure investors that: • There’s a market for your products or services; • You and your management team are capable; • You have the necessary physical and financial resources; • You know where you’re going, and how you’re going to get there; • You’re able to provide appropriate security; and • Most importantly, that the franchise you’re buying is financially viable and that you can repay the loan!

THE PROCESS OF OPENING A FRANCHISE

What to expect after you sign the franchise agreement

F

ranchising is a great way to make your dreams of owning a business come true, but there are several essential items to consider before putting pen to paper. Carrying out proper due diligence ensures the success of a business and signing the franchise agreement is only the beginning of the work needed to get a franchise started. Here, you’ll find the list of steps that franchisees normally take before opening their own business to the public. These steps begin after signing the franchise agreement, and take business owners on the path to the grand opening day, when they can begin serving their customers and community. SITE SELECTION: Finding the perfect location in their community ensures that franchisees can reach a steady and loyal clientele. The site selection process can work differently across different brands. For example, if the site has been secured prior to signing the franchise agreement, the site details will be included in the franchise disclosure document. These details include demographics, traffic counts, information from the landlord, and any other relevant information pertaining to the location.

34

If the site has yet to be selected, the franchisee may sign a commitment agreement instead of a franchise agreement, and then the site selection process will take place. When the site is found, they’ll then sign the franchise agreement, which will include the site details. Alternatively, some franchisees will sign the franchisee agreement before the site is selected, and when the site is found, will sign an addendum outlining the location details. In both cases, the franchisee will receive a new disclosure document including the site details, and will sign the acknowledgement of receipt for the site. After that comes signing the lease, or a sub-lease if the location will be rented by the brand’s head office. If the franchisee is responsible for building out their new location, they’ll look to hire a local engineer or architect who ideally has experience with building a similar type of business in their community. This ensures that the builder has knowledge of the building requirements according to their municipality. As the site is under construction, the franchisee will be working with the architect, engineer, general contractor, and various tradespeople to get the site built to the specifications outlined by the franchisor. The next step

THE PROCESS OF OPENING A FRANCHISE is to start to work with the franchisor to hire staff and ensure the key staff are trained. HIRING: As small business owners, franchisees are responsible for staffing, and get the final say in who they hire to join their new team. However, the hiring process can vary depending on the company involved. A franchisor may provide general advice and hiring criteria for who to look for, such as the type of experience in prospective employees. In other situations, a job fair can be used for the hiring process, which will consist of the franchisee and a team member from head office interviewing candidates together. The hiring process is vital for franchisees because they should onboard staff who will represent their brand respectfully while helping to grow the business through providing excellent customer service and building repeat clientele. As franchisees make the staffing decisions, they’re also responsible for keeping the ship afloat and ensuring that their staff numbers are maintained, and team members are satisfied. This includes making important decisions regarding training, disciplining, firing, and wages while ensuring that they’re not under or overstaffed. Additionally, since they’re a small business owner, franchisees should be educated in the provincial employment standards and labour laws that outline how much their employees are legally entitled to earn. Wages are more than just the pay cheque that employees receive, and include taxes, benefits, and workers compensation. TRAINING: The training process kicks off when the franchisee attends and graduates from training school with the franchise brand, which can last anywhere from a few days to a number of weeks or months, depending on the industry and size of the brand. The next step is to train the franchisee’s employee team up to the standards and guidelines of the brand. This is usually done by the franchisor, who has a training team that will go on site to educate the new staff about day-to-day operations and policies. This can take one week up to one month. Most often, brands use a “train the trainer” technique, which consists of selecting key staff members to train, who then use their learning to educate the rest of the team. Training is all done before the business’ grand opening, during which supplies will continuously arrive to the site. The staff and training team work together to organize the location and get it ready for its big day. Once the employees start working, it’s up to the franchisee and their key staff, often the manager and/or assistant manager, to provide guidance and support to

their team about how to operate, rather than the franchisor being on site to oversee operations. The goal of training is to ensure that customers receive the same experience and high-quality product that they know and love at every franchised location. Thorough training equips franchisees and their team with the knowledge of the brand that they can replicate to provide successful results for their business. MARKETING: To ensure continued success, franchisees will need to work with the franchisor to develop a strong marketing plan for their location. Larger brands normally have a national advertising and marketing plan created by the head office team in collaboration with the Franchise Advisory Council (FAC) that outlines the overall brand marketing plan. The franchisee is typically responsible for their own local store marketing, as they’ll have a connection to their community. An established franchisor will often provide franchisees with a local store marketing tool kit, which can typically be accessed through the franchisee intranet. This tool kit can include checklist items to complete such as approaching a local school to set up a new program or joining a Business Improvement Association on behalf of the brand. When it comes to smaller brands, there will generally be more collaboration between the franchisor and franchisee to come up with a marketing plan that’ll work for the franchisee’s location. While it’s ultimately up to the franchisee to create their local store marketing plan, head office can also provide assistance. For example, they can send someone trained in operations or local store marketing for a day to help with community outreach programs and other marketing techniques. Additionally, a marketing manager can work with business owners to create a grand opening plan, including organizing a “Friends and Family” event before opening to increase customer outreach. It’s important to remember that every franchise is unique and may have different steps, people to meet along the way, and rules and regulations to follow during the opening process and while the business is up and running. The steps to opening a franchise may seem long and daunting, but franchisees are provided with abundant support from head office during the process to ensure they have the tools they need to succeed. Once a solid location is picked, staff are hired and trained, and marketing promotions get underway, then franchisees are set up to find success with their new business endeavour!

5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW WHEN HIRING FOR YOUR FRANCHISE Tips and advice to help you hire star employees for your franchise

A

s a franchisee, you’re responsible for the hiring of all staff members in your franchise. These employees will represent your brand and interact with customers every day, so it’s important that you onboard people who are an ideal fit for your team. While skills and qualifications are the first step to the hiring process, you should look beyond those to consider the candidate’s personality and performance. You should also examine where you want to post your job openings to ensure you attract the right candidates, and keep in mind that you always have your franchisor and fellow franchisees as support. Throughout the hiring process, you should consider how a candidate will work with your existing staff and customers, and you can get the second opinion of a colleague before onboarding a new employee. Here are five tips that you should know when hiring for your franchise. 1. Brainstorm realistic qualities and skills for your ideal candidate There are many qualifications that you’ll be looking for when you hire team members. When thinking about who would make the ideal candidate for a position, it’s important to think beyond the job title and responsibilities. You should consider what type of skills, qualifications, and personality traits you’re looking for. But keep in mind that there’s more to a candidate than just the skills and experience written on their résumé, and you’ll find out more about their personality during the first phone call or interview. For example, for management positions, you may want a motivating leader who’s also a team player that can

36

positively influence and inspire other staff. For customerfacing positions, you could look for a social personality who isn’t afraid to approach customers and strike up a conversation to make a sale. Some positions may require staff to be able to work independently or as part of a team. You should also think about your skills in reading people from a first impression. Ask yourself whether you’re able to gauge whether a stranger will be a good or bad addition to your team. The first interview will allow your candidates to delve into their personal skills and qualifications, but it also gives you a chance to see how they interact with people, their general demeanour, and if they talk about themselves with passion and can represent your brand well. 2. Diversify your job posting process Today, most jobs are posted online to a variety of websites, which helps promote postings to a wider range of candidates. However, this may overwhelm you with many applications that can take a while to sort through. The key is to post your job openings on websites that ensure you receive applications from the most suitable candidates. You should also tailor the description, duties, and qualifications to include the technical and experience-based skills that you’re looking for, to ensure that you’re getting applications from those who are most qualified. You can also consider participating in job fairs, but should keep in mind that you’ll need to do adequate promotion beforehand in order to ensure that your target candidates will show up. When hiring for your franchise, you can ask friends and family for referrals. They may know young students

5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW WHEN HIRING FOR YOUR FRANCHISE looking for a part-time job or adults looking for a new management position, and are likely to recommend hard-working and reliable people to help support you in your new endeavour. Once your franchise is up and running, you can then ask your best employees to recommend candidates for open positions. As a star employee, they probably know people similar in personality and work ethic and will know what type of person would help your business thrive. As for social media, you’ll likely use it for the marketing and advertising of your franchise. It’s also a great place to post job openings to prospective candidates. Since your followers will include some loyal customers, you can reach a network of interested applicants who know your brand. 3. Don’t be afraid to consult your franchisor and fellow franchisees As a franchisee, you consistently have the support of your franchisor behind you. If you’re stumped about what to include in a job description or what skills and qualifications to look for in candidates, consider reaching out to your franchisor for help. After all, they built the brand and know what type of person they want to represent it. Plus they’ve likely seen hundreds of employees from various stores and know what work experience and personality works best. Your franchisor may also have job description templates that they can offer to help get you started in the hiring process. You can also contact fellow franchisees, some of whom have likely hired dozens of people during their franchising careers. They’ve hired for the exact same positions and know what qualities made for the best candidates. They may have learned from hiring mistakes and can offer advice for you to avoid making the same errors. While you can reach out to any franchisee in the system, you should also meet with owners in nearby territories. They could have recommendations for employees who are looking to move closer to your franchise location, or can offer referrals from their star employees for friends or peers looking for a job in your area. 4. Create a two-step hiring process during interviews After posting the job and drumming up applications, it’s time to sort through the résumés and narrow it down to a short list of applicants to interview. Your first interview will allow your candidates to shine a spotlight on their skills and experience, while also giving you a feeling for their personality and cultural fit with your franchise. During the interview process, you’ll likely narrow down your short list once more to a small group of candidates who you think would thrive in the position.

However, before you decide to pick an individual, you might want to consider a two-step hiring process to get the opinion of another staff member. This will eliminate any biases you may have and allow you to discuss the pros and cons of each candidate together. During this second interview, you and your teammate can sit down and ask deeper questions to candidates you’re seriously interested in. You can also consider having one person lead the interview while the second person focuses on the candidate’s body language to determine how confident they are in their responses to different questions. As always, references can also shine a light on candidates and can provide additional information about the person from a former supervisor’s perspective. They can tell you about the person’s work ethic and personality. One of the most important questions you should ask a reference is, “If you had the opportunity to hire this person again, would you?” The answer should always be a resounding “yes!” 5. Examine candidates through the lens of a customer While the focus during the interview process should be on whether a candidate will be a good fit within your team, you should also consider their skills and personality through the perspective of a customer. After all, the new hire will consistently represent your brand while on the clock, and you need to consider how they will interact with consumers. Everyone within the franchise system contributes to the customer experience, so it’s important that each person has the skills and knowledge it takes to create a good one. If the candidate seems timid and shy during your interview, it’s possible they’ll be the same way when approaching and interacting with customers. Someone with a bubbly and outgoing personality during the interview will probably also be that way when greeting and serving customers. Having years of customer service experience doesn’t necessarily mean they have the gogetter skills it takes to close a sale and create satisfied and loyal customers. Happy customers will share positive feedback with friends, family, and colleagues. However, unhappy customers may share negative feedback with their network or could turn to the internet and social media to express their concerns. You should consider what customer experience each candidate seems likely to create and use reference checks to verify their skills. Also keep in mind that some individuals can be trained to develop their skills over time, so a candidate with minimal customer service experience but an ambitious attitude can grow into a star employee for your franchise.

FRANCHISING FORMATS

A guide to the different formats available to expand to multiple locations

F

ranchising provides a way for everyday Canadians to realize the dream of building their own business, by allowing you to go into business for yourself, but not by yourself. As a franchisee, you own and operate your own franchise business with support from the franchisor, which will outline the systems you’re required to follow to ensure consistency from one franchise location to the next. While franchising offers entrepreneurial-minded people the opportunity to open a business, it also provides different avenues for franchise growth. Most franchisees start out by signing a single-unit franchise agreement. They’ll own and operate this franchise location, often working on the front lines to ensure the business finds initial success. Once the franchise is established, you may decide to build on this success by investing in more franchise locations. There are three different methods you can use to expand your franchising enterprise to more locations: 1. M ulti-unit franchising: A multi-unit franchisee expands through multiple single-unit franchise agreements, which may or may not be in the same geographical area. 2. A rea development: An area development agreement is an agreement to open a specific number of franchise locations within a specific geographical area over a specified period of time. As an area developer, you’ll typically receive exclusivity for your assigned area, as long as you meet the timelines outlined in your development agreement. You’ll

38

enter into a new single-unit agreement for each new location as it opens. 3. M aster franchising: A master franchise agreement provides the master franchisee with the ability to sub-franchise and grant franchises to other franchisees within the assigned territory. This is different from area developers, who are responsible for opening these locations on their own. If you enter into a master franchise agreement, you’ll usually be required to open at least one franchise location that you operate, and to provide support for the other franchisees in your assigned territory. You’ll receive a portion of the franchisee’s loyalties as compensation for providing this support. Franchisors will often look for master franchisees in new markets that they’re looking to develop, including international and remote locations. Expansion is great! There are many benefits of expanding to multiple locations: • The more franchises you own, the greater the opportunity to make more money! • You’re diversifying and increasing your chance of finding success – if one location isn’t performing as well as you’d like, this can be offset by other more successful locations. • The franchisor will often provide discounts on the initial franchise fee to encourage the purchase of more units within the system.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


FRANCHISING FORMATS • There’s an opportunity to incorporate economies of scale for the administrative costs across multiple locations because you can share training expenses, employees, and management. • You don’t have to go through a steep learning curve with each location you add, as you’ve already completed the training and are familiar with the franchisor’s operating system. • A s you expand, there are opportunities for volume discounts and rebates that will help in lowering costs. Proceed with caution • If you’re looking to invest in multiple franchise locations, you’ll need to have the financial capacity to do so. While the higher investment can be offset by greater returns, you’ll need to have the initial resources in order to make this investment. • You’ll usually need to provide proof that your first franchise business is performing well before financial institutions will lend you additional funds to expand. • You need to make sure you’ll be able to meet the terms and schedule outlined in an area development or master franchise agreement, or the agreement could be terminated, with you losing out on any upfront fees, and possibly losing exclusivity for your territory. • There’s more risk involved in owning and operating multiple locations, and you need to have the entrepreneurial chops to overcome the many challenges that will come your way.

the brand evolves, it can get expensive with multiple locations. • You’ll need to invest in the necessary infrastructure and technology to help you efficiently manage multiple locations. • A s a master franchisee, you’ll have the challenge of finding sub-franchisees while still operating your own franchise. As with any franchise opportunity, it’s important to do your research and due diligence to see if these multiunit franchise formats are the right fit for you. Take the time to thoroughly review, with expert help, any singleunit, area development, or master franchise agreements. Also take the time to talk with other franchisees in multiunit agreements so they can share their experience with the format and provide the necessary context to help with your decision-making process.

Other things to consider • A s you go from operating one location to multiple locations, you’ll likely no longer be working in your business, and instead be working on your business, as you can’t be in all locations all the time. • Multi-unit operators should have strong leadership and management skills, as you’ll need to hire others and delegate tasks. • If you need to make updates or renovate as

hen you invest in a franchise, it’s important to keep in mind that you’re investing more than just money — you’re also investing your time, passion, and hard work. With the resources required to start and maintain your franchise venture, you’ll want to have a complete picture of the franchise opportunity before you sign on the dotted line of the franchise agreement. That’s where due diligence comes in. Lyn Little, partner with BDO Canada LLP, says the due diligence process also allows prospective franchisees to determine whether they’ll be investing in a bona fide franchise opportunity, with all legal and financial requirements in order. “It’s important for a prospective franchisee to conduct proper due diligence, as this may allow the franchisee to identify potential red flags in the business, or indicators which may suggest that the franchisee should look at an alternate franchise system, or request reductions in the franchise fees, royalties, or other fees to the franchisor,” says Little. When you’ve checked off every item on the following list, you should be ready to make an informed decision and be prepared to invest in the perfect franchise opportunity for you. Don’t forget to ask lots of questions, so everything is as clear as possible at every step of the investment process. For questions to ask the different people you’ll meet along the way, consult the Checklist for Franchisees on page 43. Research the franchise system You should undergo a self-assessment, outlining your skills, assets, and abilities, before looking into specific franchise opportunities. Once you have a good idea of what you can contribute to your franchise business, you can create a short list of franchise systems that you want to research further. These systems should take the

40

aforementioned strengths and abilities into consideration, along with your interests and passions. You can start by heading online to review the system’s franchise website and any other information about the system available online. You can also conduct this research in-person by attending a franchise-specific tradeshow, where you can meet and speak with representatives of the franchise system, and/or by visiting one of the brand’s established franchise locations so you can see firsthand how the franchise operates in its market. Some key factors to look for when researching franchise systems include franchisee selection, training, communications, marketing, problem-solving, rewards, and corporate culture. You’ll also want to evaluate the market, consumer demand, location, resale value, whether it’s an established or new and emerging system (and the pros and cons of each), and whether it’s a resale location into consideration. Submit a completed franchisee application form to the franchise system Once you’ve started researching specific franchise systems, you can fill out and submit a franchise application form, which will provide the franchisor with important details about your background and experience, your financial information, and the skills you have to offer. Keep in mind that as you’re conducting your due diligence, the franchise system will also be carrying out their own research to determine whether, based on their experience, you’ll be a good fit as a franchisee of their system. Meet with current franchisees of the franchise system “You’ll want to talk to eight to 10 existing franchisees of the franchise concept that you’re most interested in. You’ll want to learn, from their perspective, what is required to drive success. You’ll also want to know a lot

DUE DILIGENCE CHECKLIST about their relationship with their franchisor,” advises Gary Prenevost, president of FranNet, Southern Ontario and Eastern Canada. These franchisees should have different levels of experience, and should be chosen from franchise locations at different performance levels. Meet with franchise system representatives You’ll get to this stage if you’re almost ready to make a purchase. You should be prepared to fly to the franchisor’s head office for a Discovery Day, where you’ll meet with their leadership team and get a final sense of whether the culture will be a good fit. “Essentially, you’re going there to look for reasons to say ‘no’ and hope that you don’t find any. You won’t make a purchase decision while you’re there, but usually within one to three weeks after you return, you should be ready to sign a franchise contract and pay the initial franchise fee,” explains Prenevost. Most established franchisors have a franchise review process in place that clearly defines their practices and procedures to help prospective franchisees make informed decisions, so you can follow this process, asking any questions that come up along the way. Build a comprehensive business plan A business plan lays out the goals of your franchise business, providing banks, investors, and lenders with an idea of the scope and specifications of the project in which you’re investing. This plan should include cash flow projections for the first three to five years your franchise will be in business, outlining the earning potential of your location and the strategy for achieving these goals. Your business plan should start with a summary of the franchise you intend to purchase, including essential background information about the franchisor and their track record. The financial section of the business plan should

include your personal financial information, along with financial projections for your franchise. A realistic budget should also be provided, with details about the cash flow projections and profit and loss forecasts. The business plan should also analyze the marketplace, and should contain information about the products and services you’ll be providing, consumer demand, and the customers who’ll be looking for these products and/or services. Consult with franchise professionals As you contemplate your franchise investment decision, you’ll want to enlist the help of franchise professionals who can provide you with the guidance you need to make the right decision. • A franchise consultant can help you identify your objectives as you carry out a self-assessment, help you understand the franchisee/franchisor relationship, introduce franchise opportunities that you may not have considered, assist in evaluating and analyzing opportunities, and introduce you to other franchise experts. • A franchise accountant can help you pinpoint the profitability of the venture, and can also help you calculate the start-up costs, assist you in reviewing

DUE DILIGENCE CHECKLIST documents from the franchisor, advise you on the advantages and disadvantages of a franchise investment opportunity, and help you put together your business plan. “In preparing to purchase a franchise, the prospective franchisee should look at fixed and variable costs to determine the break-even sales figure required to turn a profit. Understanding this figure, and the prospective market the franchisee will operate in, will allow the franchisee to determine whether the franchise location has the potential to generate sufficient revenues to cover costs,” notes Little of BDO. • A representative from the franchising division of a bank can help you determine the financing plan that works best for you and your business, providing financial solutions that are tailored specifically to your franchising situation. A franchise banker can also be an asset when it comes to figuring out your financing requirements so you’ll be able to sustain your business in the long term. • It’s also critical for prospective franchisees to enlist the services of a franchise lawyer, who can explain and elaborate on the details of the franchise agreement, and review and explain the disclosure document, specifically outlining what each party is expected to provide. A franchise lawyer can also help in negotiating any terms or conditions of the franchise agreement as required.

42

Review the franchise disclosure document In addition to speaking with the franchisor, existing franchisees, and franchise professionals, prospective franchisees should receive a franchise disclosure document once they reach a certain point in their investigation. As an important part of a proper due diligence process, disclosure documents contain a summary of information on the franchisor, its executive team, and its franchise agreements. In Canada, franchise systems are required by law to provide a disclosure document to prospective franchisees in provinces where franchise legislation is in place (currently British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island). It’s important to fully review the disclosure document with your franchise lawyer and financial advisors to ensure that you understand the information it contains, including your obligations as a franchisee. Trust your own judgment Ultimately, you’ll be the owner-operator of your franchise system, so it’s essential that you be the one to make the final decision before signing the franchise agreement. “Don’t allow yourself to be sold or unsold by anyone else. Rely solely on your own research and make a decision to proceed only when you can justify how and why this business meets your criteria, and why you know you’ll be successful at running it (or to eliminate the opportunity when you can logically identify why it’s not right for you),” cautions Prenevost.

The Faces of Canadian Franchising Meet some of the thriving franchisees who have achieved success by going into business with the franchise model David Thomas, Aisle 24 When the pandemic called for social distancing, Aisle 24 was uniquely positioned to succeed. As a self-service, contactless grocery store franchise, Aisle 24 provides customers with a variety of products ranging from food staples, such as milk and bread, to home goods and personal hygiene products, through a technology-enabled retail self-service model without the use of any cashiers. David Thomas is the first franchisee of this innovative system. He opened his 600 sq. ft. location in a pair of conjoined apartment buildings in midtown Toronto just before the pandemic hit. While some might consider this bad timing for a new business venture, for him it was the perfect opportunity. Thomas was first introduced to Aisle 24 at The Franchise Show, where he met the system’s founders. “I was drawn in by how simple the idea was and how we would be able to take that idea and enhance it,” he recalls. He was also interested in the franchise because it had a huge technology component. “It’s refreshing to be part of something brand new. This is the future, and I’m really excited to be a part of it.” This isn’t a typical Monday-to-Friday, nine-to-five job: Thomas works seven days a week. However, he says that it adds up to a total of 20 hours a week, which includes administrative duties such as purchasing, ordering, and talking to customers via email or text if they have any issues. “A lot of the tasks that I do can be done at home,” he explains. “If there are any issues, I get them emailed directly to me, and we have a really great customer service team that takes care of any technical issues.” When the franchise first opened, the pandemic was in its early days, so Thomas was still able to spend a lot of time at the store talking to his customers. “Our store is automatic and it’s technology-based, so I wanted people to know that there was a person behind the store,” he says. One of the challenges that Thomas had to overcome at the very beginning was making sure everyone had access to the shop. Since the store concept is app-based, they had to find a workaround for individuals who either

48

didn’t have, or didn’t know how to use, smartphones. The solution was to provide customers with key fobs, which give them access to the store without using the app. Like many franchisees, Thomas says that one of the biggest benefits of being part of the system is that he doesn’t have to set everything up from scratch. “If I had to build this idea out, it would take years, but the founders built this amazing structure and platform that has allowed me to learn from them and their mistakes, and have the right tools for success.” Thomas says another benefit is that the Aisle 24 app technology is constantly improving. They’re always looking for new and better ways to interact with the customers, and they’re exploring new store locations for the future. Thomas advises franchisees to be open and listen to what the customer wants. “They’ll be the ones that drive your success.”

Keenan and Anson Wong, Chatime Chatime franchisees Keenan and Anson Wong are two of the many individuals who serve the brand’s bubble tea in Canada and around the world. The father-and-son duo opened their Ajax, Ontario store in August 2019, and since then have been serving up drinks to their local community. Keenan brings a business degree and 30 years of supply chain management experience to his Chatime franchise. Anson graduated university and began working in the bubble tea industry for about eight months before the two decided to partner together and open their own franchise. “Being a franchise owner isn’t necessarily just investing and hiring a manager and letting the operation run by itself,” says Keenan. “You have to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty and get involved in the day-today operations.” Since opening their franchise, Keenan has prioritized the safety of his staff while continuing to serve his customers quickly and efficiently. A lot goes into running a franchise, and if you’ve ever visited a Chatime, you’ll know that peak hours get customers rolling in and lines building up. Which means Keenan sometimes must step in to help where needed. But when you throw a pandemic into that mix, the challenges put these franchisees to the test. “There’s a lot of changes in adapting to this new environment. Making sure that staff are working in a safe environment is always a top priority for me. As I tell them, the most important thing is that they go home safe to their families,” says Keenan. Fortunately, working on the front lines was something Keenan picked up early on in his franchise journey, as he was in the store seven days a week, working 12 to 14 hours a day. “Once everything is running smoothly, you can start to step back a little and let your staff take over the operations,” he explains. In order to protect staff and customers, Keenan says his location was one of many stores that stopped allowing walk-in customers. They relied fully on online orders, where customers could order beforehand and come in to pick up their drinks and go. Despite these challenges, they’ve seen much success. “I think it’s actually performing much better than

I expected, not only financially, but also in terms of the whole experience as well,” says Keenan. “Having looked back, I would say I really enjoy doing it, and I really enjoy going back to the store every day, even though at the very beginning, you have to put in a lot more time and effort.” It seems all that effort paid off, as Keenan says he’s planning to open a second location with Chatime. “One of the biggest advantages is the brand equity from Chatime, that it’s not like you’re starting up with your own bubble tea store and have to develop your own reputation […] people already know about Chatime—not just within Canada, but it’s a brand that’s known worldwide.” Keenan says those who want to be their own boss should consider franchising. Compared to a corporate job, “being a franchise owner can be more challenging but a lot more rewarding in terms of the effort you put in and seeing the payback you’re getting,” he says. “Not just financially, but in terms of being happier about what you’re actually doing.”

Kayla Orleck, Pet Valu For many Canadians, their pets are just like family. And for franchisee Kayla Orleck, who opened her New Hamburg, Ontario franchise in May 2020, the Pet Valu brand itself was a big part of family life. Pet Valu has helped devoted pet lovers give their pets the food, supplies, toys, and love they need to live happy and healthy lives for more than 40 years. With over 600 stores across Canada, the franchise has an abundance of trained animal care experts who help educate and assist customers every day. “I literally grew up in a Pet Valu store with my parents. Between the two of them, they have four locations they operate in eastern Ontario: two in Cobourg, one in Port Hope, and one out in Haliburton,” says Orleck. “I watched them build up their business and acquire these stores over 20-plus years, which was really impressive. And I grew up in them, they were my first job all through high school.” She adds that at a young age, she would help cover shifts when a staff member called in sick, learned how to cash customers out, and put away stock on delivery days. Even after graduating university and launching her career in a different direction, Pet Valu remained part of Orleck’s life and that of her family. She was eventually drawn back when she worked in a corporate store in Brantford, Ontario for one year. “It was that family dynamic and community involvement that really captured and intrigued me about Pet Valu,” explains Orleck. “There was an opportunity that came up and I couldn’t turn it down. I loved the atmosphere that I grew up in, and I had found in all my other jobs that I was pulling on those aspects and trying to bring them into anything I did.” As a new franchisee, Orleck says being a business owner is “challenging and exciting all at once. It’s quite a roller coaster.” The highlight in a typical day for Orleck is getting good feedback from customers. “We put an emphasis on having a lot of knowledge so we can really help guide our devoted pet parents to find the best products and solutions with whatever their issue may be. [Having] that compassion to really help them make their pet’s day better and a little bit more comfortable for them is definitely a huge highlight,” she adds. “Any time a pet walks

50

through the door is also a highlight for us—I mean, who doesn’t love puppies!” Orleck describes Pet Valu as community and engagement focused, with an emphasis on knowledge and professionalism, and a drive for business. “[They have] a great business plan, all the franchisees have a lot of input, and I think it’s really helped shape what Pet Valu is,” she explains. She advises prospective Pet Valu franchisees to do their research and have a passion for the business and a desire to grow, improve, be innovative, and willing to adapt. And have a love for pets, of course. As for her advice for franchisees just starting out: “Make as many friends with other franchisees as you can; they’re gold. The number of times I’ve had to call people, just to ask ‘Have you ever run into this before? What do I do?’ People who understand exactly what you’re in and what you’re going through is really important.” Orleck adds, “Be willing to take on new things, and to let some things fail just to see you tried at them. If you have that passion, it’ll definitely go a long way.”

Dustin and Marianna Woodbeck, GetintheLoop How often does a Facebook browse turn into a business? For Dustin Woodbeck, the journey towards franchise ownership with GetintheLoop began by seeing ads served up on the social platform, and asking a lingering question: “why isn’t there a local app for businesses to advertise directly to users?” When a co-worker pointed him towards GetintheLoop, Dustin knew he had to share it with his wife, Marianne. “Right away, we said, we should get involved with this,” he recalls. Founded in 2013, GetintheLoop has already grown to 4,000 communities in every province across Canada, acting as a platform that helps residents and visitors discover local businesses, restaurants, and events. The couple, both with full-time jobs (Dustin is an engineer and Marianne a kinesiologist), kept an eye on the app for a few weeks before making their decision. “We evaluated the market, talked to people we knew, and had some calls with the franchise,” says Marianne. Increasingly, they realized its potential for their own city of Prince George, B.C., and eventually signed on in May 2019. Dustin says he was impressed from the start by the support from the Kelowna, B.C.-based franchisor. “They’ve been awesome. I didn’t expect that much support when we first bought the franchise,” he explains. Support includes weekly meetings with a marketing manager, and several channels to reach out for help, including phone, email, and Slack. They’re also connected with franchisees across Canada. From the start, the Woodbecks had a good response from their community. But they also knew the importance of getting out there to raise brand awareness. The couple started with a variety of events, and by finding businesses to partner with. The initial reaction from new clients was very positive. “I think a lot [of clients] were excited because we didn’t have anything like this in Prince George. They were really excited to get more into the digital side. They also like that all the data is trackable, so they know how well it’s doing, how their offers are performing, and can switch things up.” Users also liked the app, especially the weekly contests and gift card giveaways. Today, the app has around 6,000 users, and reach also has grown to towns outside of Prince George.

Of course, the biggest challenge to the new business was the pandemic. “When it first happened, and you couldn’t really go anywhere, that was a huge challenge. Seeing people face-to-face was what we do best. With COVID-19, there’s lots of financial struggles on both sides, for our partners and for us, too,” says Marianne. The couple had their first child in early April, so that was another balancing act, as well. When the pandemic hit, the Woodbecks made a point of reaching out to clients to check in, adjusting some offers to be more COVID-19 friendly, such as focusing on takeout. They also reassured many partners that they could put them on pause to keep them attached to the app as everyone watched things evolve. Overall, the Woodbecks say that being a part of GetintheLoop has been a good experience for them both. “I just like meeting people, and being involved with the community,” says Dustin. “That’s really rewarding, because I feel like I’m actually making an impact, and we’re offering a platform that makes everything feel a little bit more connected.”

Ash Walani, Right at Home Canada Ash Walani’s first few years in business were both interesting and memorable: he signed on to operate three Right at Home Canada franchise territories in mid-2018 (Caledon, Newmarket, and Richmond Hill, Ontario), had a busy 2019 as he ramped up staffing and sales, then suddenly it was 2020—the year COVID-19 arrived in Canada. Right at Home Canada provides home health care services focused on seniors and others who need assistance with daily living activities. When COVID-19 hit, the immediate concern was ensuring staff and client safety. “Being a health care business, COVID hit us hard in every way. We had to be fluid to adapt to new realities. We had to ensure they had proper PPE and training. The franchise head office team was on top of it all—they kicked in around-the-clock meetings, new policies and practices, and provided daily updates,” says Walani. Right at Home Canada offers shared services to franchisees, including a team of schedulers that Walani chose to use short-term. “On my own, it would’ve been impossible to keep up—it was stressful, but I never felt that I was alone.” Walani had searched for more than a year before choosing to invest in a Right at Home Canada franchise. “I’ve always been entrepreneurial, and I was searching for a business that had the potential to be profitable, but also one that had a social and personal purpose, something that involved community engagement,” he says. He followed the advice he now gives others who are weighing their options: “Study it, ask many questions, and know what you’re stepping into.” He chose a franchise system because he believed it would be difficult to compete in the home health care market as a small independent. He chose Right at Home Canada because it’s a fully Canadian company that offered a ‘family’ feeling, and a level of autonomy that allows him to put his own stamp on his business, while benefiting from the framework and systems that the franchisor has in place. “The head office team knows the Canadian health care system, and their combined knowledge and support system is absolutely priceless, especially when something like a pandemic hits,” he says. “If I was an independent business, I doubt I would’ve had the fortitude to survive.”

52

About 90 per cent of Walani’s clients are families. The balance are a mix of insurance companies, retirement homes that need short-term assistance, or other third parties. The majority of Walani’s workers are personal support workers (PSWs), but there are also registered practical nurses (RPNs) and registered nurses (RNs) on the team. Initially, he did all of the hiring himself, but as the business has grown, he’s started to delegate some of that work. The most rewarding part for Walani and his staff is the impact that they’re having on people and their quality of life. “Most seniors want to stay in their home, but they or their families realize that they need some help to do that. Whether it’s light housekeeping or companionship, or assistance with bathing or getting dressed, we really do want to make a difference and give families peace of mind,” he says. “We get to help some of the most vulnerable people in our society, and we do it in a personalized way. We offer a boutique service, with our care planner as our concierge. It’s absolutely humbling to see the gratitude we get from families whose loved ones are in our care.”

Thinking About Franchising Your Business? 4 BIG questions to consider before you get started BY MARIETTA SNETSINGER

1. Why should I use franchising to grow my business? As a smart and successful entrepreneur, you’re probably thinking about how you can continue to capitalize on your success and grow your business. As you consider your options, you may find that the franchise business model could be a contender. Let’s start with the most obvious and popular reasons to consider franchising your business: Local connection: What better way to secure the success of a new location/business than to start with a local connection? Expanding into new markets with a franchise partner who has an “invested” interest and the ability to connect with a local audience can go a long way toward expediting growth. Local representation and connection to the brand can help you expand into markets where you just couldn’t build local relationships and connections as quickly with a corporate model. Leverage capital investment: Franchising is a great way to grow and scale a business using other people’s money. This type of growth format allows for a business to expand by leveraging the capital of others, i.e. franchisees who are more likely to deliver an exceptional customer experience, and share common values with the franchisor. Speed of unit expansion: By leveraging the investment of your franchisees, you can expand more quickly and efficiently. In exchange for sharing your “know how” and proven business model, it’s possible to have more locations, sooner! Opportunity demand: Simply put, you have a concept that’s been successful, and others are willing to pay you for this knowledge. There are many “intrapreneurs” who are seeking opportunities to be in business for themselves and they’re happy to invest in your franchise for access to this proven format.

They become implementors of your concept at a local level as your franchisee. 2. What make your business “franchisable”? If you’re wondering what makes a business “franchisable” and more specifically, if your business would be a great candidate for franchising, here are five ways to evaluate the franchisability of your existing business: I. Innovative/unique selling proposition (USP) The concept has established a strong brand, including unique and innovative services. The products and service are delivered with a customer-centric approach. The company is clear about who they serve and what services/products are offered. Checklist: ❑ W hat makes your business unique and different from competitors? ❑ A re you offering something that doesn’t already exist in your market? ❑ Is your business focused on the customer’s experience? II. Unique franchise proposition (UFP) Creating a concept that has a clear business proposition for franchisees who choose to invest with you is essential. Part of your franchise marketing program will include clearly communicating exactly what sets you apart from other franchise concepts, including proprietary programs which often evolve around acquiring clients and/or staffing your concept. If there’s a common challenge within your industry, your concept has a proprietary way of solving the problem. Checklist: ❑ W hat makes your concept stand out among your competitors? ❑ Will someone pay you to learn your business format? ❑ How will you manage franchisee expectations?

THINKING ABOUT FRANCHISING YOUR BUSINESS? 3. What makes it a franchise? As much as franchise systems may differ in products and services offered, the underlying premise of franchising remains the same. Before you begin exploring expansion options, take some time to explore and understand the components of the business model and exactly what it means to establish a franchise system. A little bit of due diligence and understanding early on can go a long way. The five fundamental components of a franchise system include: I. Proprietary operating system: The initial franchise fee covers access to the franchisor’s validated and documented business system. A good turnkey franchisor provides help with set-up, initial training, and ongoing support, all designed to reduce the number of IV.

5 Things Smart Franchisees Know about Support Services

When and why you should call in the pros during your franchise search

D

uring the franchise investment process, there will be instances where you, as a prospective franchisee, will want to rely solely on yourself. You’ll want to base your decision on whether (or not) to invest in a franchise opportunity, in part, on things only you will know or feel – your research, your conversations with the franchise system’s staff and franchisees, how well it fits with your goals and aptitude, and maybe even the “gut feeling” you have about the opportunity. But there are a few points along the path to becoming a franchisee where it’s usually recommended that you not go it alone. Here are some of the scenarios in which the best course of action may be for you call in a franchise professional to assist. SCENARIO 1: Identifying which franchise will suit you best There are many franchise opportunities available, so figuring out your franchise fit may seem like a huge undertaking. Franchise consultants can help you to identify your unique mix of skills, talents, and experience, as well as how those may translate in a franchise environment. They can also help you pinpoint what your ideal franchise would look like and sort out questions to ask during the investigation process that will bring you closer to it.

SCENARIO 2: Figuring out how much money you have to invest In addition to finding a franchise that fits your goals and skills, you also need to know if the opportunity fits your financial capabilities. An accountant who is wellversed in franchising can help you figure out your net worth, assets, and obligations. He or she can also provide advice and guidance on creating a business plan, which summarizes your current and projected finances for your venture, as well as how you’ll set up and operate your business. Not only is this a great way to map out your plans for your franchise, it’s also an essential document that potential lenders will want to look at when you approach them about securing further financing for your franchise venture. SCENARIO 3: Securing more money to invest Once you know your net worth and have calculated how much money you have available to invest in your franchise, you may need additional funds to finance your new business. Many franchisees require financing from a business lender to combine with the personal funds they’ll be investing.

5 THINGS SMART FRANCHISEES KNOW ABOUT SUPPORT SERVICES and services that will support your franchise as you open and grow your business, including business loans, lines of credit, and business accounts. SCENARIO 4: Deciphering disclosure documents A franchise disclosure document is a summary of information on the franchise system. This can include items such as background on the franchisor and its officers; fees, estimated costs, and total required investment; and the franchise agreement, which will outline the rights, responsibilities, and obligations of both the franchisor and franchisee. In other words, understanding the information contained in the disclosure document is a vital part of the franchise due diligence process. An experienced franchise lawyer will be able to guide you through the document, help you in understanding the material it contains, and, as he or she will have reviewed many similar files, will be able to spot anything that’s out of the ordinary, a possible cause for concern, or items that may be open to negotiation. SCENARIO 5: Protecting your new franchise location As a franchisee, your franchise system can train you for the regular, day-to-day operations of the concept. A good franchisee is also equipped to handle the unexpected – the kinds of events or situations that you hope never occur. Luckily, there are ways to mitigate some of these types of risk. A business risk management plan will usually include a business insurance package. There is a wide range of policies, from more general ones that the majority of businesses may need to those that are specific to an industry, geographic area, sector, customer profile, etc. An experienced insurance broker who’s aware of the needs of a franchise business will be YOUR able to assist you in putting together an insurance package that best protects your business.

While it’s a good general starting point, this is not an exhaustive list of the experts you may wish to consult as you investigate franchises and start your franchise venture. As you grow your business, you may find the need or have the opportunity to seek further advice from experts you’ve consulted previously and/or add other franchise professionals to your support team. An important point to keep in mind – though you may be tempted to get legal advice from your cousin who’s a personal injury lawyer or ask your neighbour who works in accounts receivable for accounting guidance, resist that impulse. When it comes to your franchise business, it’s always better to get help from professionals who are not only legal, accounting, banking, or insurance experts, but also familiar with the ins and outs of the franchise business model. Working with specialized support can save you considerable time, money, and trouble on your path to franchise success.

FRANCHISING YOUR BUSINESS:

A

A CHECKLIST

successful business owner is generally always thinking a step ahead to what’s on the horizon – a new product or service offering, an attention-grabbing marketing campaign, or a way to provide even better quality and value to customers and clients. They’re probably also thinking about growth and ways to take the success they’ve found so far and expand it to even bigger proportions. A popular way to grow a successful business is through the franchise business model. This type of growth format allows the business to expand through franchisee investment, providing capital for new locations, as well as motivated operators who have a vested interest in seeing them succeed. There’s also the added bonus of having a local franchisee operating your concept in their community, taking a hands-on role and building and maintaining relationships. If you have a booming business that you would like to expand via franchising, read on for some of the things you’ll need to have or know early on in the process. A successful business Has your business established a history of success? Before you consider franchise expansion, you need to have a solid foundation from which to build. You might want to consider opening another location to “test the waters” of expansion and evaluate the market reaction to a satellite location before focusing on expansion through the franchise business model.

A concept that can be replicated Though franchising can be found in numerous business sectors and industries, all franchises share common threads. An important one is that franchised concepts are tried and tested and can be replicated consistently in different locations. Make sure that the core components of your business’s success can travel well to new markets and, with proper training and guidance, can be implemented exactly by someone else. A desire to work with other entrepreneurs In order to establish a successful business, you must have some great entrepreneurial chops! As you make the decision to expand your business through franchising, there are a few things to consider, mindset-wise. You’ll be taking on franchisees to operate new locations – are you ready to offer them the assistance and advice they’ll need? Are you prepared to lead a team of franchisees? Keep in mind that franchisees will be your partners in the system, not your employees, and will be in business for themselves, but not by themselves. Though they’ll operate their location, they’ll rely on you (and the head office team you will build) for support in doing so consistently and successfully. A franchise support team Eventually, you’ll most likely need to bring more head office personnel on board to provide an appropriate level of support for your growing system. In the early

FRANCHISING YOUR BUSINESS days, though, you may want to look to experts with experience in franchising to assist you in franchising your business – for example, a franchise lawyer, accountant, consultant, or marketer. These franchise professionals can provide guidance and advice on many of the elements required to franchise your business. Capital to cover upfront costs Though franchising allows you to expand your business’s points of sale through the investments of the franchisees, you’ll still need to be prepared to fund the upfront costs associated with adopting the franchise business model. There are documents and manuals to be created, legal contracts and agreements to be drafted, trademarks to be protected, and a financial plan for your new system to be built. Your support team can help you in creating and budgeting for these needed items, as well as getting a handle on your franchise’s overall cash flow. A financial plan for the long haul With your short-term financial plan under control, you’ll want to consider your franchise system’s long-term financial situation. Though most franchise systems require an initial fee from each franchisee, in general, this alone will not be sufficient. Franchise materials As mentioned, there are documents and legal agreements that must be drafted for your franchise system. It’s best to consult the experts when putting these materials together; for instance, drafting the franchise disclosure document and the franchise agreement will require the expertise of a franchise lawyer, as there’s franchise-specific legislation in certain provinces that these materials must comply with. As another example, having your lawyer and a franchise consultant go over materials such as your operations manuals will help ensure that policies and procedures are explained clearly and that nothing vital has been omitted.

Franchise marketing materials You’ll likely also want to create marketing materials aimed at prospective franchisees. Many systems put together special packages of information specifically for interested investors that outline the benefits of joining your system. These will differ from your customer-centric marketing efforts, as you’ll be trying to show prospective franchisees not only the benefits of your end-user products or services, but also the advantages of the system side – the operations, support, and unique concept. A marketer or marketing firm experienced in working with franchised businesses will be able to guide you in getting your messages out to both your consumer and prospective franchisee audience. These are just a few of the general considerations of franchising your business. When consulting with franchise support services professionals, they can provide you with even more specific information, expertise, and advice.

FRANCHISE MATTERS

FRANCHISE BRAND MATTERS WHEN YOU THINK OF A BRAND, you might think about

its familiar logo, catchy slogan, or signature colour scheme. While all of these things can be included as defining aspects of a brand, a company’s brand is much more than just that. It’s the tangible, but it’s also the intangible – how people think and feel about a company. This, of course, is more difficult to nail down. When a prospective franchisee is investigating franchise opportunities, the franchise brand itself is one of the main components they’ll want to consider. What are the hallmarks of a strong brand, and does this company’s brand have them? How strong and unique is the brand? How is the brand supported and protected by the franchisor? What happens when the system wants to or needs to refresh its branding? Read on for insight into the world of franchise brands. Brand vs. branding A company is made up of people, offices, products, and services. The company’s brand is made up of the perceptions that consumers have about them. This also includes the perceptions held by internal stakeholders: the company’s management and employees. How do people create these views and opinions about brands? That’s branding – the ways by which a company or business generates awareness and conveys its values to people. These are the activities that help shape the way people, both inside the company and outside, think and feel about it. Because of this, great branding doesn’t equal a great brand. Any company could spend a wad of cash on

splashy branding, but without conveying the right messages to the right people at the right time, it would all be for naught. A cool logo, for example, doesn’t make for a strong brand; more substance is required in order for people to react to a brand. A strong brand message should resonate throughout the company. Branding, franchising, and you Strong brands and strong branding are particularly important in the franchise industry, where franchise systems must be able to differentiate themselves from competitors in order to build the brand. The branding should be able to tell you the system’s unique aspects and offerings. It could be the same for both franchisees and consumers – for example, a proprietary blend of coffee that can’t be found anywhere else. Or, in the case of a cleaning service that uses environmentally friendly products, the unique benefit to the consumer is fewer chemicals used in their home, while a franchisee might see the benefit of a proprietary operating system and products. When evaluating a franchise’s brand strength, consider first the look and feel of the brand and branding instead of more quantitative aspects such as how many units it currently has or how long it’s been in business. Zero in on its unique features – what makes it different – and how well they’re imparted to others. Strong brands are built from the inside out, so one of the easiest ways to spot a strong brand is to speak with those who are charged with nurturing, growing, and maintaining it. These people should consider themselves “brand ambassadors” and be able to easily convey the brand’s message.

A prospective franchisee should also reflect on how the brand and branding are being managed. Consistency is vital to both branding and franchising; it’s important that this is monitored so everyone’s investment is protected. Rather than policing, franchisors should ensure brand buy-in among employees and franchisees and that everyone is aware of the consequences of inconsistencies. A good place to look for this is in the system’s training, as this is what will impart consistent operations and branding to each new location. Before signing on, a prospective franchisee should be comfortable and confident in the franchise system’s established branding, as well as the support provided to help franchisees stay within brand guidelines, such as marketing materials created by the franchisor. Refreshing brands Part of maintaining a strong brand involves knowing when to update, change, or refresh the branding in order to stay current in the marketplace. In a franchise system, this is important for franchisees to note, as it’ll impact them directly. The “when and how” of these updates should be outlined in the franchise agreement. They could include, for example, renovations to the brick-and-mortar location, or a redesigned logo. Ultimately, calculated updates can leave the system even stronger than before, provided that franchisees and employees view the refresh as an investment in its future and not as a burden. When making a brand decision, whether it’s a smaller one, like where to buy your morning coffee, or a much larger one, such as joining a franchise system as a franchisee, an individual’s reaction to the brand plays an important role. As a prospective franchisee, examine the brand and branding of the systems under consideration and be wary of choosing the “sizzle” over the “steak.” Look for a strong, clear, consistent brand and branding that makes people want to align with it.

FRANCHISE CUSTOMER SERVICE MATTERS AS CONSUMERS, we’re familiar with customer service – the assistance received from a vendor before, during, and after purchasing a product or service. We’ve probably all experienced great customer service and not-so-great service at some point. And, usually, these experiences can shape the way we view the company or the person from whom we received the service. Satisfied customers and clients are at the heart of any successful business. Creating relationships through excellent customer service keeps customers happy and coming back. With franchise businesses, customer service not only needs to be top notch, it needs to be consistently excellent during every interaction at every location in the system. Dissatisfied customers may tell people about the poor service they received, and with all of the avenues available through social media and the internet, it’s easier than ever for one person’s opinion to circulate quickly. In a franchise system, everyone is responsible for generating positive reviews of the company’s customer service – in different ways.

But even the most hands-on of franchisees or diligent of managers will be unable to see and hear every customer interaction that takes place. What happens when those people aren’t around?

FRANCHISE LEGAL MATTERS

Franchising is often referred to as a mutually-rewarding relationship between franchisors and their franchisees. While this is true, the franchise business model is also built upon contracts and other documentation, which makes the relationship that much more complex. Luckily, there’s help for prospective franchisees in wading through the paperwork and fully understanding the rights and obligations of the franchise relationship that are outlined within.

FRANCHISE LEGAL COUNSEL MATTERS

Franchise lawyers are well versed in the ins and outs of the franchise business model. It’s vital for prospective franchisees to fully understand all documentation involved in their franchise investment, particularly the disclosure document (a comprehensive summary of pertinent information about the franchise system, its officers, finances, etc.) and the franchise agreement. As a potential franchisee about to invest your time, effort, and money, you’ll want a complete understanding of the relationship you’re about to enter into. This is where an experienced franchise lawyer comes in. Though there are some common features found in franchise agreements, these can vary from franchise system to franchise system, and from franchisee to franchisee. Today, some provinces have franchise legislation that prescribes the information that franchisees must receive prior to signing on the dotted line. This is just one of the reasons why retaining a lawyer who has experience with the franchise business model is a wise choice.

So, where can you find a franchise lawyer? Prospective franchisees can find a lot of the information they need online, through sites like the CFA’s online directory of franchise support services members. Although the internet is a great source for some initial inquiries, prospective franchisees should speak and meet with lawyers first before retaining one. When selecting a lawyer, there are a few things potential franchisees should consider. Look at the lawyer’s experience – have they dealt with the franchise you’re interested in before? How often have they acted for franchisors and franchisees? Fees are another area that should be examined. Prospective franchisees should be comfortable with the costs and timelines, but should also look for quality services and a lawyer who understands your goals and your financial situation. A large part of examining the franchise system is reviewing its disclosure documents and agreements. Clients are advised when meeting with their franchise lawyer to bring in everything that they’re being asked to sign, from the franchise agreement itself to any leases or other contracts. Usually these are standard documents, but each should still be looked at. It’s also important for some documents, such as the franchise agreement and real estate lease, to be examined together.

Franchise Canada Directory 2022

FRANCHISE LEGAL MATTERS The lawyer is looking for two main things: franchisee obligations and potential risk. If, upon review, everything is in order, the franchisee signs on the dotted line and moves forward with establishing their franchise location. But it doesn’t necessarily signal the end for the relationship with the franchise lawyer, as once a good working relationship is established, many clients will return with other legal work down the road. Having an experienced franchise lawyer on your team is an asset both during and after your franchise investigations.

FRANCHISE DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT MATTERS

As part of a proper due diligence process, prospective franchisees should be collecting pertinent information on franchising and franchise systems. They should also be evaluating it against their goals, attributes, capabilities, and assets. During due diligence, some of this information (financial capacity, skills, passions) will come from the franchisee, while other details will come from the franchise system. An important piece of this investigation puzzle is the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD). Here’s how you can put these valuable resources to best use and glean as much information as possible. What is a franchise disclosure document? An FDD is a written resource designed to provide franchisees with vital information that they need in order to make an informed decision about investing in a franchise opportunity. A typical FDD may include information such as: • Background on the franchisor and the key players within the system, such as its directors and officer; • A ny history of litigation, civil actions, convictions, bankruptcies, etc. of the franchisor and/or its direc tors and officer; • A summary of the trademarks and other intellectual property; • A summary of the costs and fees required to start and run the franchise business; • A n outline of the training and ongoing assistance provided by the franchisor; • A list of current and former franchisees and their contact details; and • Financial statements and other fiscal information. The disclosure document must meet requirements

66

set out in any provincial franchise legislation. Currently, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island have specific legislation on franchising. Prospective franchisees are given a minimum of 14 days to review the document prior to signing on with the franchise. Will a disclosure document specify how much money a franchisee can make? Franchisors can, but aren’t required to, provide information on projected earnings. As a variety of factors can play into the success of a franchise location, it can sometimes be difficult – and risky – for franchisors to provide earnings claims that apply widely. The financial information that franchisors will include in the disclosure documents is likely to include the franchisor’s overall fiscal performance during the most recent year (which will show the assets, liabilities, and earnings of the franchisor itself) and/or possibly historical actual gross sales of anonymous individual locations. Franchisees are advised to review all financial statements with an accountant, who can explain the numbers and use them to extrapolate the financial viability of the franchise system and to help put together a solid business plan for the prospective franchisee. No matter how the financial information is presented, though, the franchisor must be able to substantiate and justify the information. Another way to find out more about earnings potential is to speak with existing franchisees. When will a prospective franchisee receive a Franchise Disclosure Document? The timing of providing a disclosure document to a prospective franchisee can vary from system to system. Just as a prospective franchisee will be evaluating the franchise opportunity, the franchisor will also be assessing whether the applicant would be a good fit for the system. Once the prospective franchisee is considered a serious candidate, that’s usually the point where the FDD comes into play. What should a prospective franchisee do with a Franchise Disclosure Document? When a disclosure document is provided, a prospective franchisee has a minimum of two weeks in which to review the materials. The franchisee shouldn’t sign any contracts or agreements until this period has passed. The two weeks should go by quickly, as there’s much to be done. The first step is to gain a full understanding of the information it contains, with help from an experienced franchise lawyer.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


FRANCHISE LEGAL MATTERS A franchise lawyer will be able to “translate” to the prospective franchisee all the essential rights, responsibilities, and obligations that the documents outline pertaining to both sides of the franchise relationship. The lawyer will also point out anything different or unusual about the information or what the franchisor requires, and can often identify items that may be negotiated with the franchisor (and lead these negotiations when the time comes). In addition to speaking with a franchise lawyer, there are others a prospective franchisee should consult during this time, such as an accountant and banker, who may also want to review the disclosure document. Prospective franchisees will also want to put that list of franchisees that the disclosure document provides to good use by contacting current and former franchisees for their first-hand knowledge. FDDs play an important role in a franchisee’s due diligence. By consulting with franchise professionals, a disclosure document can help prospective franchisees make their investment decision with a better understanding of the franchise opportunity, as well as the rights, responsibilities, and obligations they’ll be undertaking as a franchisee.

FRANCHISE LEGISLATION MATTERS

The franchise business model is a popular way to do business across Canada. Each year, thousands of Canadians go into business for themselves, but not by themselves by investing in a franchise. In certain provinces, there’s a legal framework that sets out how the relationship between franchisees (those who are investing in a franchise business) and franchisors (those who own the rights and trademarks of the franchised business and license them to franchisees). The intent of the legislation is to help ensure that prospective franchisees are making an informed investment decision; once they have joined a franchise system, the legislation encourages franchisees and franchisors to deal with one another in good faith. Franchise law helps ensure franchisees receive certain information in order to make an educated decision about investing in a franchise business. At the time of writing, franchise legislation exists in Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and British Columbia. In provinces without specific franchise legislation, the franchise business

relationship is usually governed by common and/or general business laws. For prospective franchisees, there are the components of franchise legislation that’ll have the largest impact on them right away. Franchise legislation helps potential franchisees make more informed decisions by requiring franchisors to provide serious franchisee candidates with disclosure documents. A franchise disclosure document is a written resource designed to provide franchisees with vital information that they need in order to make an informed decision about investing in a franchise opportunity. Franchise legislation usually outlines what information needs to be included in disclosure documents and how they may be delivered to prospective franchisees. Under legislation, franchisees are prescribed a certain amount of time to review the disclosure documents, usually two weeks, and consult franchise professionals, such as a lawyer, accountant, and banker, to go over the documents in detail. A typical FDD may include information such as: • Background on the franchisor – history of the company, what it offers and how it’s operated, how long it has been in operation, how many units/franchises it has, and other brands it operates; • Background on the key players within the system, such as its directors and officers, and those one would deal with as a franchisee; • A ny history of litigation, civil actions, convictions, bankruptcies, etc. of the franchisor and/or its directors and officers; • A summary of the trademarks and other intellectual property that are licensed under the franchise agreement; • A summary of the costs and fees required to start and run the franchise business; • A n outline of the training and ongoing assistance provided by the franchisor; • A list of current and former franchisees and their contact details; and • Financial statements and other fiscal information. Legal experts encourage prospective franchisees across Canada to request a disclosure document, as franchisors should be willing to share the information with serious prospects. Franchise legislation also provides for rights for established franchisees, such as the right to associate and share information with fellow franchisees.

Q A

ASK AN ACCOUNTING EXPERT As a new franchisee, how do I figure out when I will be profitable? WHEN STARTING A NEW FRANCHISE VENTURE, one of the main hurdles that a franchise owner may face is how to reach the point of making a profit. Although franchisees often get into a business model because they love the related industry, ultimately, they need to pay the bills. Understanding timing of profitability is often personally important for the franchisee. However, it’s also critically important to the business plan that the franchisee also be able to demonstrate and articulate the path to profitability. A potential lender or investor will want to know that the franchisee has carefully considered the relevant costs and revenue levels required to make the business successful and whether the revenue levels are attainable, since franchisee success leads to successful loan repayments or investor returns. Different individuals have different ideas about profitability. It’s important to distinguish between a business’ break-even point, having net income, or being cash flow positive since these terms all mean slightly different things. A break-even point is the point at which a company’s sales equal the costs of production and other fixed costs. Net income represents accounting income, which is loosely based on break-even calculations, but contain some non-cash elements such as depreciation. Being cash flow positive refers to an increasing cash level for the company over time. So how can a franchisee determine when they can expect to reach profitability? It’s a combination of following some comprehensive steps and ensuring a base understanding of key financial concepts. One of the first steps is to work out what the start-up or purchase costs will be. These may include the initial franchise fees paid to the franchisor, costs related to the buildout of a location—including equipment, furniture, and fixtures—and costs to get the underlying franchise company up and running, such as legal, accounting, or consulting costs. Other initial outlays such as inventory, employee training, and deposits for rent or utilities must also be considered in start-up costs. Once a business is started, there’s often a period where the revenue experiences growth. The break-even point is reached when the revenue earned in a business covers all ongoing costs. To determine the break-even point, the franchisee needs to consider fixed costs, variable costs, and related revenues. Fixed costs, also called indirect costs or overhead costs, are those costs that don’t change depending on the volume of revenues. It’s important to understand your fixed costs since high fixed costs require a high

68

level of revenue, whereas lower fixed costs allow a business to continue to operate even in periods of low revenue. Fixed costs may include items such as property taxes, most utilities, or loan interest. Rent is often a fixed cost but in some franchise systems, rent has a variable component based on sales volumes. Variable costs are those costs that change with the revenue volumes. Since they can fluctuate based on revenue levels, having a solid understanding of your variable costs is critical to helping you make good projections and determining when you’ll reach profitability. Examples of variable costs include advertising fund fees and royalties, wages, utilities, and consumables such as raw materials or packaging. It’s important for a franchisee that hasn’t yet broken even to understand what proportion of each dollar of revenue is covering variable costs. As long as variable costs are less than the related revenue, additional sales will result in the business being closer to profitability. In contrast, if variable costs exceed the related revenue, either big changes are required to the business model, or the business won’t be viable. The final step is actually calculating the break-even point. This can be accomplished by dividing fixed costs over the percentage of revenue that remains after variable costs. The result is the actual volume of revenue required to cover all fixed and variable costs. This is where the hard work for the franchisee begins. They must determine if they can achieve the break-even revenue because if they can’t, they need to determine if either fixed, variable, or both costs can be adjusted to be in line with anticipated revenue levels. Buying a new franchise can have its benefits and challenges. However, franchisees can successfully navigate many of the challenges through proper planning, particularly around financial needs and projections of the business. Understanding the finances of the franchise may not be why franchisees chose to operate their business, but laying a solid groundwork can pay off down the line.

Q A

ASK A LEGAL EXPERT

As a franchisee, what should I have in my legal tool kit before embarking on a new franchise opportunity? MOST FRANCHISEES GET A CRASH COURSE in franchise law as a fringe benefit of purchasing a franchise. Counsel will gleefully dissect the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), advise on the finer elements of the franchise agreement, and pontificate on the meaning of “material facts,” the duty of good faith, and the right of rescission. This article will look deeper and provide franchisees with a useful tool kit of core principles that govern the relationship between franchisors and franchisees. Is it a franchise? Some promoters will go to great lengths to assert that their business is not a franchise in order to avoid the costs of franchise compliance and issuing FDDs. However, any business which, under a written agreement, grants a person the right to conduct a business, using the other person’s trademark, and in which the other person exercises significant control over the business or provides significant assistance, is a franchise. Substance trumps form, and the courts will find a franchise if these elements exist. Piecemeal disclosure is no disclosure An FDD must be delivered in one document, at one time. For example, franchisors can’t provide pro forma income statements in one meeting, the franchise agreement in another, and then the investment costs in another, even if the prospective franchisee receives, in the aggregate, all information required by law. Strike one, you’re out A franchisor’s failure to disclose in its FDD financial statements from the most recently completed fiscal year in audited or review engagement format (subject to a 180-day grace period), is fatal to the FDD and can entitle a franchisee to a two-year rescission period commencing on the date of the franchise agreement. Notice to reader and internally prepared financial statements are a critical deficiency. Failure of a franchisor to have two of its officers and directors sign and date the FDD certificate (unless there’s only one officer and director) is also a critical deficiency which will invalidate the FDD and open the two-year rescission window. No “cookie-cutter” FDDs Franchisors can no longer issue “generic,” one-size-fitsall FDDs. These must be tailored to the specific opportunity. Costs must reflect the format (new build, turnkey, conversion, kiosk, etc.), and the franchisor must disclose site information, revenue information, and, if it’s a head

tenant, lease information pertinent to the site. Failure to do so can result in a deficient FDD. Franchisors can, however, supplement the original, properly prepared FDD with statements of material change to disclose new information (such as a head lease, sublease, and costs) arising after the original FDD is provided. Keep the faith Franchisors owe franchisees a duty of good faith and fair dealing in the performance and enforcement of the franchise agreement. In exercising discretion, a franchisor must consider the franchisee’s interests, but isn’t required to put those ahead of the franchise as a whole. Franchisors must act in good faith, without an ulterior motive, and in a commercially reasonable manner. Please release me Franchisees cannot be asked to contract out of, or release a franchisor, from its statutory obligations. The law protects franchisees by invalidating any purported waiver or release by a franchisee of these rights. For example, an agreement by a franchisee to waive a franchisor’s disclosure obligations, or release the franchisor from any rescission claim, is invalid. The exception to this rule is where a franchisee agrees to release known statutory claims against the franchisor (e.g., a rescission claim), for valuable consideration, and with the oversight of lawyers. (No) right of renewal Once the term and all renewal terms in a franchise agreement have expired, the franchisor has no implied, or good faith obligation, to renew the agreement. The courts won’t read into a contract terms that don’t exist. Franchisees must ensure that their agreement contains meaningful renewal rights in their favour or risk losing the right to continue to operate their franchise. Ch, ch, changin’ Franchises are constantly evolving, and franchisors must often make key changes to their business model.

ASK A LEGAL EXPERT (Continued from page 69) Franchisors must consider whether (i) such changes are permitted under the agreement; (ii) the changes would be so impactful as to undermine the benefit of the contract; and (iii) the imposition of the changes breaches the duty of good faith. The courts have reviewed this question and while a franchisor must consider the best interests of the system as a whole, it’s not required to guarantee any benefit or level of profit to its franchisees when making system changes in good faith for legitimate business reasons.

Q A

To compete, or not to compete Non-competition covenants are often unenforceable as being in restraint of trade and contrary to the public interest. The party enforcing the clause must justify that it’s reasonable in time and scope, and protects a valid business interest. Restrictive covenants that are vaguely drafted, are overly broad in scope, or contain material errors, will be voided by the courts. And, if the franchisor doesn’t have a legitimate business interest to protect in the restricted territory (including the lack of any intention to expand their business to that territory), the courts may strike the clause as unenforceable.

ASK A FINANCE EXPERT Why is it a good time to consider franchising as a new career option? IN TODAY’S WORKFORCE, people tend to change careers and jobs quite a bit. According to Workopolis, a shorter stint at jobs has become the standard, as 51 per cent of people now stay in any one role for approximately two years. Millennials will, on average, have roughly four jobs over their first 12 years in the job market. On the whole, it’s expected that Canadians will be in 15 different job roles over the life of their careers. As tenure in a single job has become shorter, careers now have greater fluidity. But this fluidity—whether or not by choice—can lend itself to career opportunities. Owning a franchise business is one of those opportunities and can be impactful for those looking for a career change, at any stage of their professional lives. Before looking at the opportunity that franchising presents, it’s worth looking at how different franchise models are best suited to people at various life stages. Tier 1 franchises—a franchise that’s a household name—often have a higher price tag and are more selective about who they accept. More often than not, these types of franchises select people who’ve been selfemployed previously, have significant assets, and are looking for a new challenge or to add to their existing portfolio of investments. The health and lifestyle focused franchises—tier 2— tend to attract a younger demographic who are looking to start out, who’ve come into some money recently, or have come to realize that they were looking for something more than what their current job could offer. Tier 3 franchises—quick service restaurants (QSR)—

70

are another popular option as they have lower entry barriers and there’s a large selection of franchise types. These are geared to those new to the country and those looking for networks that are growing. It’s important to keep in mind that, when starting any franchise, there will be an upfront capital commitment. The amount of capital required by the franchisor will vary depending on the franchise. For franchises that are well known, a franchisee may be looking north of $750,000. For health and lifestyle focused franchises or QSRs, the investment may sit under $450,000. While there’s an upfront cost, franchising has some distinct advantages for those looking to start their own business and rethink their career. Proven business model One of the key advantages of starting a business under a franchise model is that the franchisee is working with a proven business model. The franchisor will have a playbook to helping with franchise success—anything from marketing collateral, to hiring best practices, to operation guidelines. There’s still a lot of work on the franchisee’s part in order to turn a franchise business into a success, but not having to start from scratch can be incredibly beneficial. Data and analytics Another advantage of transitioning to a franchise business is tapping into resources that the franchise network will provide, such as data and analytics on franchise performance.

Canadian Franchise Association www.cfa.ca | www.FranchiseCanada.Online


ASK A FINANCE EXPERT For franchisees, data can be a powerful tool and provide insight into the strategies that help fellow franchisees at a store level. The franchise brands that leverage data (and analyze that data) can tailor systems for various regions or cities. If the franchise brand deploys data and analytic capabilities, it can be incredibly valuable to tap into that information as much as possible. Now more than ever, data lays the groundwork for a successful business. Profitability While not applicable completely across the board for franchise businesses, some franchises—health and lifestyle focused and QSRs—have a smaller hurdle to profitability relative to other franchises and starting a business from scratch. The lower the profitability hurdle, the quicker the franchisee will be able to make and (hopefully) keep the business profitable. To help with profitability, it’s a good practice to have a business plan in place. With a business plan, the franchisee can map out what’s needed to attract customers and determine the number of people that need to consume a service or purchase a product to be successful and start seeing growth.

AWARDS OF EXCELLE GRAND PRIZ E WINNERNCE S

Understanding your sales cycle is also crucially important. To help you better understand the cycle, look at whether the business is seasonal (so you’ll know when to expect ebbs and flows) and how dependent it is on variables like foot traffic. If a chunk of your business depends on getting customers in the door, look to supplement that with an online storefront for when traffic might be lighter. This will be especially important, as consumer preferences changed as a result of prolonged social distancing from COVID-19. When in the midst of a career transition, franchising can be an exciting opportunity. In a lot of cases, as an owner, it can provide greater work-life balance and flexibility. If done right, it can be an exciting opportunity for business success.

Q A

ASK A FINANCE EXPERT What are some of the most common franchising myths? SOME PEOPLE HAVE PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS when it comes to franchising and how it can be a vehicle for their success. Often, these perceptions are based on inaccurate and erroneous information. Here, we’ll examine six of the more prevalent myths regarding franchising. 1. I can’t be in that business if I don’t know anything about it Good news: you don’t have to. One of the greatest advantages of starting a franchise is that you’re provided with training and ongoing support. Essentially, this negates the requirement of having experience in specific industries and systems or past business ownership. Typically, franchisors are looking for candidates with the right transferable skills. You may not have worked in a particular industry before, but if you’re diligent, patient, and willing to learn, you have many of the qualities required to thrive as a franchisee. If you restrict your options to only things that you’re already good at, you shut down a universe of possibilities. 2. I can’t be creative in a franchise because the franchisor will dictate everything Franchisors provide the framework but as a franchisee, often you manage, market, and promote your business. You’re in charge, and the flexibility and creativity are achieved by how you choose to run and elevate a proven process. There’s plenty of room for your ideas. You might be amazed to know how many product and service innovations have come from franchisees, not the parent company. 3. I can’t afford a franchise Although some people think that investing in a franchise is too expensive, it’s important to point out that there are numerous opportunities available to fit a wide variety of budgets. Generally, the expenses for starting and running a franchise won’t be much different from other business models and the franchise’s fees come with plenty of value and benefits that other start-ups wouldn’t provide. With so many diverse franchise possibilities out there, you have the ability to invest at your comfort level. Moreover, there are various funding options and programs in place for potential and existing franchise owners to help you get closer to fulfilling your business ownership dreams.

provide for that royalty: experience, support, technology, branding, marketing, and ongoing training, among much else. Franchisors want their franchisees to thrive because without successful franchisees, there would be no franchise. Unsuccessful franchisees would damage the brand and deter other potential franchisees from seeking opportunities. It’s in the best interest of the franchisor to help their franchisees maintain a profitable business. It truly is a win-win situation; franchisors don’t “win” unless the franchisees “win” too. 5. The secret to success is finding a career doing something you love Brace yourself, because businesses founded on the owner’s hobby, background, experience, or knowledge don’t have the greatest chance to succeed. It’s important to differentiate between doing something you love and loving what you’re doing. For example, if you enjoy fishing, finding a business that requires you to fish all day in order to pay the bills may take the joy out of it. Frequently, the wiser, more fulfilling way to proceed is to build a business that provides you with the work-life balance that will enable you to pursue your hobbies and other interests. 6. It’s best to buy a franchise with a well-known brand name Although a big brand name might draw customers in, it doesn’t guarantee success and shouldn’t necessarily be the deciding factor. Perhaps more important than the power of a well-known name are considerations such as what daily tasks will be involved, ramp-up and return on investment timing, how customer acquisition will transpire, the amount of staff required (if any), hours of operation, and so on. In other words, determining how the franchisor and your business will fit with your income and lifestyle goals, needs, and expectations is generally more important and indicative of success than the brand name. Exploring franchise ownership can be an exciting and fun, yet unnerving experience. Debunking some of the myths we’ve all heard will hopefully clear up common misconceptions and help you to research franchising with a clear and open mind.

4. Franchisors get rich at my expense through royalties Franchisors do indeed earn money through partnering with franchisees and vice versa. Each franchisee must assess the value of what they’re receiving in return for paying a percentage of their revenue. Consider what franchisors

TPC TAX PLANNING CENTRE LTD.

Tax Planning Centre treats your taxes like our own. 203-1899 Willingdon Ave Burnaby, BC V5C 5T1 Phone: (866) 763-5550 ext. 700 Web: www.taxplanningcentre.com Email: pjprimeau@gmail.com Contact: Philip J. Primeau, President As an entrepreneur there are many franchises you can choose so why should you select Tax Planning Centre? Every year the tax rules change and it is very difficult for the public to complete their own tax returns and be sure they are taking advantage of all the deductions and credits available. Perhaps that is why there is such a high demand for tax preparers who not only prepare tax returns but can find ways to actually plan for tax savings. Tax Planning Centre does more than tax preparation. We treat your taxes like our own!

33 Belvia Rd Toronto, ON M8W 3R2 Phone: (647) 236-5435 Web: www.nationalmattressfranchise.ca Email: rafal@nationalmattress.ca Contact: Rafal Kieliszek, President Traditional mattress stores are full of tricky commissioned salespeople, out to get the biggest sale possible from the customer. Mattress prices are highly inflated, and the buying experience quickly turns into a battle between the salesperson and the customer trying to squeeze out the best deal possible. It sucks for both the salesperson for having to negotiate all day and the customer for overpaying on their purchase. At National Mattress we do things differently. Our prices are honest from the beginning, and our salespeople are trained to educate customers on what kind of mattress they need, that fits within their budget. There are no pressure sales, no commissions, and in turn our customers get what they want, and feel confident and informed about their purchase.

Franchise Lingo FRANCHISE DEPOSIT A franchise deposit is monies collected by the franchisor from the franchisee prior to entering a full franchise agreement. It's generally a percentage of the initial franchise fee amount and the deposit is usually credited towards the amount owing when a full franchise agreement is signed. Making a deposit allows the franchisee to show that they're a serious candidate and can often permit them to place a ‘hold’ on a certain territory while the franchisee completes their due diligence and other preparations.
