A sometimes safer alternative - buying a franchise
| Buying a franchise can be a good option for persons seeking a proven business plan, franchiser support, and for some franchises, powerful name recognition. But the better franchises are very expensive to buy and require ongoing franchise fees that cut into profits. Still, some franchisees feel that the support is worth the price. Numerous franchise directories, books, and web sites furnish information on thousands of franchise options and how to be successful as a franchisee or franchisor. Be sure to read widely and consult with experts about the entire field of franchising before investing. There is a wide variance in the cost, quality of products and services, company support, and profitability of franchises.
