Aaron Bakken - Franchise Consultant

Q. Buying into a franchise is going to be a lot easier than starting my own business, right? A. Not really. Look, by buying into a franchise concept you will absolutely be getting a huge head start toward the opening of a successful business when compared to starting your own business from scratch. But it's hard work in either scenario, and both will cost you money up front. The difference is that franchising eliminates a lot of the unknowns and the headaches associated with starting your own company. You pay a franchisor up front for all of the work an independent business owner may have to pay 10+ vendors to help them accomplish. Franchises are streamlined, with proven processes, marketing and training programs. But owning any kind of business will require work, some long hours (at least initially), some risk and uncertainty. Franchising simply gives you the opportunity to know a lot more up front about what you can/can't do and how you will do it. For many people that level of transparency and proven track record provides confidence in processes and ensures a more predictable outcome. For others who don't want the restraints of a business system and franchise, it's not a good fit. VIEW ALL FAQS... https://lnkd.in/dxRcgHpS

Q. What are the hottest franchise brands right now? A. I get asked this question a lot. Honestly, this is not how I work. What is hot or great for one person won't be for another – it depends on too many factors to just say "Hey, this is the best franchise for you." As a consultant with The Franchise Consulting Company, I work with over 300 different franchise brands. Some are new to franchising and offer amazing pioneer franchise ownership opportunities and just as many are well established with years of operating history and success. Many require your full time commitment and others are semi-absentee or fully absentee owner friendly. I have something for every investor/owner type. VIEW ALL FAQS... https://lnkd.in/dxRcgHpS
