Comparing Growth Strategies:
Franchise vs. Company Owned
You’re a successful business owner with a strong company that is primed and ready for growth. As you contemplate different growth strategies, two come to mind: franchise and company-owned. These two growth strategies are completely different, so whichever you choose will impact how you run your business.
“Should I Grow My Business Corporately or Consider Franchising?”
Our answer shocks most people when we say, “If you can afford to grow corporately, then you should do that! It is 100% risk and 100% reward”. In basic terms, if you can afford to continue to self-fund your business growth and assume 100% of the risk, then we think it’s best that you continue to do that. But the truth is, most business owners simply cannot afford to self-fund multiple locations or maintain the infrastructure to grow outside of their own city.
HAVE FRANCHISING QUESTIONS YOU NEED ANSWERED?
Make an appointment with a member of our team of specialists.
- How much would it cost to open another location or market for your business?
- How many locations would you like to open in the next five years?
- What’s the total cost of the amount above?
- Do you have the time, money, resources or staff to manage that process?
After answering these questions honestly, you may find that expanding your business through franchising will be a good fit for your business. Growth through franchising is nearly always more cost-effective and requires less time and energy than adding corporate locations.
