You may know that McDonalds is a franchise business. And you may know that Topshop is a clothing chain. But what makes these businesses different from one another? And what makes an entrepreneur opt for a franchise over a new start-up business?
A franchise is like any other business and holds a certain level of risks, but franchising can reduce these risks and also requires a low investment cost. For budding professionals who are looking to branch out on their own and start their own businesses, a franchise can offer be a more secure option – with a proven high success rate.
What is a Franchise?
Franchising refers to the methods of practising and using another person's business plan. Most franchises will have already achieved business success, a level of brand awareness and a can deliver a marketing strategy that has proven success.
Within a franchise, the franchisor will grant the independent operator the right to distribute its products, services and trademarks for a percentage of gross monthly sales. Franchise operators have a number of benefits such as international advertising, adequate training and business support services that are not readily available when starting a brand new business.
A franchise agreement typically lasts between one and thirty years, and most franchise businesses can facilitate lending agreements. Franchises generally have a 90% success rate so they are able to provide this.
Although the concept of franchising has been around for many centuries, it really came into prominence in the 1930s and this has helped to propel the modern franchising we know today. The evidence of success is clear with today's most successful companies such as McDonalds, MIDAS, The Body Shop, Tony & Guy, Domino's Pizza and Dunkin' Donuts all being businesses that have grown with the franchise.
