Would
I make a successful Franchisee?
A successful franchisee should be suited to the industry of which
he or she is a part, suited to the particular franchise company,
and suited to the franchise system generally. Important questions
to ask yourself include: Am I suited to the industry physically
and by experience, education, learning capacity, temperament and
financial ability?
What
type of work is most appealing to me; for example, do I enjoy working
with food, mechanical things, people, real estate, books and recordings,
sporting goods, etc.? Am I prepared to work hard and take financial
risks? Do my advisors, family, and friends think I am adaptable
and trainable?
How
do I react to controls? Am I a loner - resenting authority and restraints,
or can I accept guidance and direction happily? If I prefer to act
as a passive investor in the franchise, will the company accept
this? How do I personally feel about the company's image and products
and services?
The
right answers to these types of questions help determine your potential
success as a franchisee.
Women
in Franchising
Increasing numbers of women, especially those operating in the Health
& Beauty sectors, are discovering that franchising can be a
good opportunity for everybody. While franchising is not a panacea,
it provides a means for mitigating the traditional obstacles that
otherwise competent and capable small investors, particularly women,
face: lack of business experience and capital. Franchisors provide
managerial training and assistance on an on-going basis and, in
some cases, arrange for property leases, provide equipment financing
and sale-leaseback programs, and assist franchisees in obtaining
financing.
