Welcome to Franchise 101, our introductory course to choosing the right franchise for you.
This part of the site is a starting place for prospective franchisees undertaking their due diligence process, but it’s also a tool for veterans of the franchise trade. So why is Franchise 101 for you?
Why Franchise 101?
Picking a franchise is easy, picking the right one is hard. If you want your business to succeed, then you need to put the work in beforehand to make sure that you’re setting up the right business for you, with the right franchising partner.
The Franchise 101 series is here to talk you through that. It explains the due diligence process, from your very first research into the wide range of franchises, through to negotiating with your final franchise partner. Each step builds upon the ones that came before, to build a coherent, comprehensive system for evaluating your own position and the franchises available to you.
Along the way, we cover all the important topics for evaluating a franchise, including:
- carrying out research
- creating a shortlist
- comparing franchises
- contacting current franchisees
- hiring a franchise lawyer
- and everything in between.
If you’re new to franchising, then Franchise 101 will take you through the whole process, with no existing knowledge needed.
