What is a business-format franchise?

In business format franchising, the franchisor prescribes for the franchisee a complete plan, or format, for managing and operating the establishment.  The plan provides step-by-step procedures for major aspects of the business and, anticipating most management problems, provides a complete matrix for management decisions confronted by the franchisees.  The major advantage of buying a business format franchise is that the “system,” the means for distributing goods and or services, has been developed, tested, and associated with the trademark.  As a result, rapid expansion of a successful concept can occur more quickly than through company-owned expansion.

Where can I locate an office?

The number one criteria, in determining location, is where you WANT to live.  We can establish an office anywhere there are phone lines and high-speed internet connections.

How do I find, select and train new recruiters?
