In the current economy the job security in corporate America has become shaky at best. Hundreds of thousands of employees have been laid off, downsized or otherwise displaced. While some see this as a challenge I see this as an opportunity to control your destiny.
If you are tired of job insecurity or tired of answering to others you can take control by starting a business. Business ownership offers great rewards for hard working and industrious business owners. While it may not be for everyone, it clearly can offer rewards and joy beyond income. While there is some risk involved the satisfaction and control and freedom of business ownership can be quite gratifying.
In a sense, franchising is a business model whose primary purpose is risk minimization. Every study ever done on the success rate of new (non-franchise) usiness start-ups concludes the same thing. Starting up a new non-franchised business has a much higher failure rate than starting a franchised business.
In the context of franchising the franchiser has already gone through the learning curve and has learned the secrets of success for specific business. In business format franchising all that has been learned by going through the curve is transferred to the franchisee, to minimize risk and give the best possible chance to succeed.
