Work that Works

In the past (another life it seems like) I worked for many franchises and they really are a good way to get into a business. Opening your own business is scary but when you open a franchise you are getting their model, method, and brand recognition so even though you are opening a new business to the consumers it is not a new business. You pretty much have a built in customer base. I suppose it requires a lot of investigation to be sure the franchise you choose has the kind of backing that makes it worthwhile. There's a lot of rigidity working with a franchise but that is the beauty of it too. Even though you can't do things 'your way' the way you have to do them is proven to work.
