How to Franchise Your Business

Most successful franchises started as a thriving independent business. For example, on a sunny afternoon in 1954 in San Bernardino, California when Ray Kroc went to visit one of his equipment customers.  He was in awe of this tiny, but thriving hamburger stand owned and operated by brothers Dick and Mac McDonald and envisioned their restaurant concept throughout the country.  Kroc shared his vision with the brothers.  A few months later McDonald’s was born and the rest is history. The McDonald’s story has been repeated thousands of times for more than half a century in virtually every industry in all corners of the globe.  Franchising has given innovative entrepreneurs an opportunity to earn millions of dollars and share their products and services with other businesses and consumers. Is your business the next big franchise opportunity?  While franchising a business is a proven and tested way to achieve rapid growth, it’s important to ensure that you have a business concept then can be duplicated efficiently. Our consultants can help you meet that challenge and provide everything you need to turn your business into a profitable franchise opportunity.
