Franchise businesses are attractive to entrepreneurs for a variety of reasons. Many believe they are the faster, easier path to establishing a profitable business, since the brand is already well-rooted in the market. For instance, if you decide to open up a Dunkin Donuts franchise, you won’t have to introduce that name to your local community. Set up shop, and everyone who passes instantly knows what you have to offer.
Franchise businesses may also come with guidance for new business owners. Starting a new franchise business for the first time is a big step, and many new businesses fail within a few years of starting up. When you start a franchise, your initial fee gives you instant access to a proven business model, branding strategy, and all equipment needed to get the business up and running.
You have to consider the amount of control you are giving up by working under the brand name of a franchise. You do get a lot of guidance and help that does not come with a standard start-up business, but in exchange you are bound by the contract you enter with the franchise brand. The brand must be protected, and that means your storefront must look and feel much like every other storefront operating under that brand name. Rather than looking for ways to stand out from everyone else, you have to fall in line with your franchise brand.
And, you have to make sure that you’re protected when you become a franchise owner.
Once you have set up shop and are turning a profit, you will have to pay ongoing royalty payments as part of your franchise contract. In most cases, this is a monthly or quarterly payment that is calculated according to the gross sales for your business. In return for these payments, you will have the use of a proven business model and brand name. As long as that brand remains popular, you will have a much higher chance of success than you would with starting your own business independently.
Once you decide that starting a franchise business is the right path for you, consider what industry you would like to enter. You can easily invest millions of dollars getting a franchise started if you decide to go into the hospitality industry or sign onto a company known as a luxury or high end brand. Expect to pay at least $10,000 for the initial franchisee fee, though this fee can go up to $100,000 in some industries.
Once that fee is paid, you still have the expenses of securing a location and setting up the actual business so it is functional. This includes bringing in employees so you can operate. Prices here will depend on your location and many other factors that come up along the way.
There are definitely perks to starting a franchise business, but there are downsides as well. Think this through before signing that contract and paying that initial fee.
