Franchise Matters
WHY A FRANCHISE? If the ‘HOW’ is stopping you moving forward then a franchise could be the answer The one question most people have when they think of starting their own business is HOW? • How do I get my name out there? • How do I set up the systems and processes, so that I start as I mean to go on? • How long will it be before I start earning money? If the ‘HOW’ is stopping you moving forward then a franchise could be the answer. A franchise can give you everything you need to start running your own business and a good franchise will also coach you along the way. When you consider all the things that need to be in place prior to running a successful business, a franchise is considered a cost effective way to start.

to name a few, have already been done for you. You may have considered starting your own business in the past and been deterred by the unknown variables but with a franchise these are few and the advantages are many. This is because of those before you, who started from a similar position to you right now and paved the way for your success, so you can hit the ground running. Being part of a franchise team allows you to call upon the experience of others, almost like having the benefit of hindsight. All franchise businesses in Australia must comply with the franchising code of conduct, which affords the franchisee (you) a greater level of protection. In general terms, this means less risk – so what are you waiting for?? In the next edition: ‘The difference between a good franchise and the rest’.
