Prospective franchisor ... the benefits of venturing into a franchise include:
-
Rapid expansion and an increase in revenues without an equally great increase in risk.
-
The franchisor's economic gains include the franchise fee, royalties and, in certain instances, an increase in revenues from product sales.
-
The franchisor's non-economic gains come from greater market penetration, advertising, brand recognition, public acceptance, and corporate growth.
-
Proven business system, training, corporate assistance and support, greater profits, and significantly reduced risk
-
Franchisee's risk of failure is 75 percent less than for a new, non-franchised business, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce.
In a franchise system, the franchisees fund the development of additional units. Moreover,
since each unit or franchisee is independent of the franchisor, growth through franchising
doesn't jeopardize the franchisor's existing operation. The franchise system, like group
insurance, spreads the risk among a class or group of persons.
