You’re tired of working for someone else, putting in all the effort and not reaping the benefit

of your ideas and efforts. Or worse, you’ve been laid off a few times and don’t think you have it

in you to go through that again. You‘ve always fantasized about owning your own business.

Chances are you have been bitten by the entrepreneur bug. But that doesn’t mean franchising

will satisfy that itch. Franchising provides you with a fairly rigorous structure within which to run

your business. If you’re too entrepreneurial, you will chafe at the reins and want to do it Your

Way (Frank singing in the background). If you take direction well, don’t want to reinvent the

wheel but DO want to control your own destiny, you’re a definite maybe.

You want to leave a (business) legacy for your kids. Honorable. Goal worthy. However,

there’s some bad news around that. According to the Family Business Institute only 12% of

family businesses survive to the third generation. The reasons are myriad: improper business

succession planning, no interest on the part of the kids, no management team in place to

arrange for orderly transition and most importantly – just because you feel passionate about this

business doesn’t mean your kids will.

You want to move. You live in the Boston area and you swore you’re not going to endure

another winter there. This is a viable reason to look toward franchising and one for which

franchising can, very often, provide an elegant solution. I love helping people live in a place that

makes them happy.

You retired. Then after a few years you grew bored, restless and found yourself signing up for

job postings through Indeed and snooping around on LinkedIn. You’re tired of living on a

budget, you long for the free spending days of yore when there was no budget. You miss the

game. You love business. Oh wait, I’m describing me awhile back! But guess what? If that

describes you too, we should talk…soon.
