The Franchise Investment Guide by Dru Carpenito Pdf

Have you ever wondered which franchises are the best businesses to buy? Ever wondered how much money you can make with a franchise? How about how much the good franchises cost? Curious how to find the good franchises (and avoid the bad ones)? Well, here's a little secret...the answers to all of those questions are in this Franchise Investment Guide. Exactly what you're getting: This Guide is dramatically different from anything you've ever read because it's more of a "field guide" about how to find and invest in great franchises versus a traditional book. The reason why is because there's no fluff or filler. It immediately gets down to brass tacks, showing you exactly what to do, how to do it, and why. Plus, it's easy to read. At just 48 pages, you can read it an afternoon. And, you'll immediately "get" the entire methodology used by real people who have used a franchise to achieve incredible personal, lifestyle and financial success. It answers questions like... Why would a successful real estate investor invest in a certain hair care franchise and open fifteen of them? Why would an attorney for one of the world's largest manufacturing companies quit his job to start a particular disaster restoration franchise? Why would a very successful corporate executive decide to open multiple locations of an emerging franchise (while he kept his job)? Why would an accountant, banker, and entrepreneur all invest in the same boutique fitness franchise (and each open multiple locations)? It also talks about... Franchising and how it's more than just fast food Where to find great franchises (hint: it's not surfing the internet or going to franchise trade shows) The indicators and characteristics of great franchises The four most important things you need to have success with a franchise The Entrepreneurial Mindset vs the Consumer Mindset The story of a corporate executive who turned down a life-changing promotion to start a franchise How to figure out how much money you can make even though franchise companies can't give you financial projections Something more important than money Exit strategy options (as in cashing out) And much more...

The Franchising Handbook by Carl Reader Pdf

Most small business books focus on what it takes to start a small business, and not what it takes to start a franchise. At best, these books might allocate a single chapter to the concept of franchising, and at worst the author presumes that franchises are the same as any other business start-up. The world of franchising has its own nuances, and advice that works for 99% of start-ups would not apply to franchising. In fact, well-meaning advice can often be detrimental to potential franchisees. This book is focused on making sure that potential franchisees are aware of the specific journey ahead of them. As franchising is a two-way business arrangement, it includes exactly what franchisors are looking for, what can or cannot be negotiated with a franchisor, and how best to present yourself to ensure that you win the franchise you want.
