Franchise Ownership Rocks. Usually...
"Heather, On the inside flap of my franchise book, I say the following: "Franchise ownership is not for everybody. As a matter of fact, it's not for most people." While most of my fellow franchise industry professionals aren't fond of that statement, it's true. Not only is it risky-if the buying and research process isn't done correctly, but it's hard work. 12-15 hour days. 6-7 days a week. More stress than having a job. Those are the reasons that franchise ownership is not for most people. And, guess what; most people don't like risk. Or, working all the time. (At first, anyway.) Business ownership, whether it's a franchise business or not, is not for most people. It takes a special breed to make it through the early stages of business ownership...to see it through until hopefully one day there's a payoff. The Franchise King® Joel Libava "Subscribe
