Franchise and Business Opportunities Articles

Remember a time not too long ago when you weren’t chained to a cubicle?  When a job was more than just a way to pay the mortgage and keep food on the table?  Sadly, many business professionals and entrepreneurs find themselves having to give up their dreams of an adventurous job and end up settling into the stable, dependable and yes, boring jobs that so many of them never dreamed they would end up in.  An exciting job may seem like a luxury that the average person can’t afford, but if you’re looking for an adventure and have ever thought about owning your own business, it may be closer than you would think.  Take a look at the five most exciting international franchise business opportunities that can take an entrepreneur from dull to daring as fast as you can say startup capital.

1. PhantomAlert

PhantomAlert is earning the accolade of, “the biggest thing since radar detectors” with their cutting edge, GPS-based speed trap warning devices and database products.  Picture yourself zipping through a mountain pass with impunity at speeds your hybrid car was never designed for, then blowing red-light after red-light, picking up speed as you narrowly escape the cops and boss hog by jumping across the crudely-made dirt ramp over the river to safety back in hazard county.  Ok, so that may be a little too exciting, but PhantomAlert has created quite a large, legitimate market by providing legal tools for the frustrated driver who’s sick of being fined for going 5 over by police trying to make their quota.  Featured in popular mechanics, PhantomAlert is a new technology designed to combat the new technologies being implemented by law enforcement in the areas of traffic light cameras, speed traps, speed cameras as well as radar and laser detection.  Rest assured, PhantomAlert is 100% legal and is a fast-moving (excuse the pun) franchise that you can get up and running for only $1000.

2. Five Star Painting

Despite what your preconceived notions might tell you, Five Star Painting is quite an exciting franchise to get involved in.  The painting industry is estimated at over $100 billion and a painting franchise puts you at the forefront of this massive industry while allowing you to be involved as much or as little you like while still retaining ownership and oversight.  Five Star provides in-depth training including ongoing management support and operations training as well as a strong business plan and a healthy track record.  Become a part of an enormous industry and franchise a company that’s a lot more exciting than watching paint dry.

3. Kinderdance

Kinderdance is a franchise designed to teach kids dance, motor skills, gymnastics, music and fitness blended with academics.  You don’t have to be a great dancer to own a Kinderdance franchise, but be prepared for all of the excitement that inevitably comes along with combining you, your business and a bunch of kids age 2-12.  Kinderdance is the largest and fastest growing franchise of its kind and, if you love kids, this is sure to be a fun and exciting franchise for you.

4. LA Boxing

LA Boxing promises to be quite an exciting franchise.  From traditional boxing to kickboxing to the hugely popular mixed martial arts, LA Boxing offers fitness, exercise and training a cut above the average health club or fitness center.  LA Boxing provides fitness and diet programs for their clients, classes for all types of boxing/fighting and plenty of space for members to take out some aggression on a heavy bag.

5.  Baja Fresh Mexican Grill

Baja Fresh is a different take on both fast food and Mexican food.  They serve up unique flavors made from the freshest of ingredients.  Perfect for meetings, parties or casual meals, Baja Fresh is a great alternative to fast food by providing fresh, made-to-order food at heat-lamp prices. Their promise of, “No Microwaves, No Can Openers, No Freezers, No Lard, and No M.S.G” makes this healthier alternative a big hit among today’s more health conscious consumer and, like all of these international franchises, will make a winning franchise for the entrepreneur in search of a little excitement.
