(One could spend weeks perusing and learning here.) I agree with you, for sure. However, there a few semi-absent models that work. And well. The Franchise King Hi David,

Thanks for stopping by this Small Business blog.

I agree with you, for sure. However, there a few semi-absent models that work. And well.

I wanted to address the semi abscent franchisee and tell you that as franchisors it's very important to note that usually the most successful franchise owners are those that are really involved on a day-to-day basis. Let's face it if you are a franchise owner no one will look after your business like you will. This is not to say that you can't be successful in this way however, it could cause some other headaches and make sure your franchisor is up front about such issues.

How much do you know about the franchise business. 2. Would you enjoy working in that specific field. 3. What is the total investment (time and capital) required to succeed in the business. 4. The strength of the franchisor. Always do your due diligence and never allow the franchior to pressure you into making a decision before you are ready.
