THINGS KEEP IN MIND BEFORE CHOOSING A FRANCHISE

Thinking about starting a franchise?

If you wanted to start your own business without from ground start and without having risk then buying a franchise is a best option for you. If you don’t know what franchise is then here is an example. You all know McDonald, everyone does. Same company has many stores in different countries and cities. These all franchises of McDonald.

Things keep in mind before choosing a franchise

Now let’s come to our main topic. It’s very difficult to choose what the best franchise is for us. You can choose from various industries whether it is food, construction, technical and healthcare. There are countless options and it’s very difficult you choose which one is right for you.


Ask question to yourself:

If you don’t know where to start then I want you to ask yourself few questions that can help you to choose right franchise for you.

What are my goals?

Different franchises offer you different results. First decide what you want from your business. Do you want to make more money or you want a home job, do you want this franchise play a big role in your career or something else. First decide your goals.

What type of job you want:
Food franchise


Franchise has two types, Absentee owners: This means you have to hire staff on day to day basis who are directly involved in your business and the 2nd Owner+ Operator:  This means you are directly involved in your business.
Many franchisers of hands on opportunity and while other offers management opportunities. Here you can choose from top franchises businesses in UK.   

What is my Budget?

Franchise Budget

Buying a franchise is very costly depends on what industry you are choosing.  Some franchise cost you $10,000/- and some $10, 00,000/-. Like I said it’s all depends what business you are choosing.
Opening a food franchise will cost you more but it is more profitable than others. Now let’s compare some franchises, let’s take the example of apple franchise people can’t buy I-Phones and I-Pad daily but they all eat food daily. So food franchise is the best option in my opinion. If you are living in UK and you wanted to start a food business then you can choose Jasper’s Franchise. Jasper is providing Food franchise business for sale in UK.

Do I know business?

Franchise Business Knowledge
Seriously before you start your business first ask yourself do I have any business skills? If the answer is no then what ever you do at some point your business going to fail or you’ll get a loss in your business. So business knowledge is the must if you want to start a business.  First you have to gain knowledge of your business. You can join a course or get advice from someone who is already doing your business. If you don't have business knowledge then visit How to run a business for more details.

After these questions if you got positive results then you can choose what industry is suitable for you and in that industry what are the franchise options available and which one is best for you?

Trends

Franchise Business Trends

After you choose your industry then look for trends. In that industry what brand people trust. This is also very important. If you choose a brand which has very negative impact in people then there is nothing that can help you to build your business. Check google trends for business information.

Support

Franchise Business Support

When you choose franchise then look for their support. Are they providing support or not. There are many brands that offer your many things on paper but in reality there is nothing.



These are main things that you have to keep in mind before buying a franchise. I hope I’ll cover everything if not then please let me know though your valuable comments. You can also like comment and subscribe me on Facebook, Twitter and Google+
