A potential franchisee will find a few that are really<br \/>\nenticing, several that they see as fairly solid, and a large amount that they<br \/>\nfind don&#8217;t suit their palate. When looking into a franchise concept, it is very<br \/>\nimportant that a buyer not only consider the product or service provided, but<br \/>\nalso the &quot;lifestyle&quot; of the concept as it relates to ownership.<\/p>\n<p>Underneath the flavor of a franchise concept is the raw<br \/>\nemployment model that the operation is built around. In essence, what it takes<br \/>\nto get the job done. This can range from a one-person location, similar to a<br \/>\nsole-proprietorship in its operation and day-to-day activities all the way to a<br \/>\nlargely employee-based vehicle. The raw model is going to affect many aspects<br \/>\nof ownership including the amount and type of work required by the franchisee.<br \/>\nThe role that the employment model plays should be equally as important in the evaluation<br \/>\nprocess as the flavor of the concept.<\/p>\n<p>This 4-piece article will provide a series of case examples<br \/>\nfrom current franchise companies that are all seeing success with their models.<br \/>\nEach example will be from a different industry sector and will address a<br \/>\ndifferent employment model ie- the no-employee model, the mid-scale employment<br \/>\nmodel, and the large-scale employment model. We will have each answer a series<br \/>\nof questions as it relates to their business, the opportunity it provides, and<br \/>\nthe day-to-day work it creates.<\/p>\n<p>We will examine several aspects of each franchise concept<br \/>\nincluding their service, price point, and territory size. Then we will look<br \/>\ninto the way in which the business is developed by the franchisee, the role<br \/>\nthat employment, management, and coordination of others plays in the business,<br \/>\nand what qualities they look for in a potential franchisee. <\/p>\n<p>Just because a concept is in an industry you have an<br \/>\ninterest in, doesn&#8217;t mean that it is work that you will enjoy doing or feel<br \/>\nqualified to do. Look deeper than the surface of any opportunity and break it<br \/>\ndown to its simplest form and then proceed with your investigative work. Your<br \/>\nchances of success and happiness with your business are much greater if you<br \/>\nwork within your skill set and choose something that will provide work that you<br \/>\nenjoy doing.<\/p>\n<p><em>Come back every 2 weeks to see a future article in<br \/>\nthis series as we profile franchisors in relation to this topic.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you a people person? &nbsp;What about managing people? &nbsp;Prefer to work alone? &nbsp;All of these are things you should consider when looking at which franchise is right for you. &nbsp;In this 4 part series we will examine the different employment models to help you understand this factor when reviewing the perfect fit.
