Musings
Is Buying A Franchise A Good Investment?
At some point in a professional’s career (if not right in the beginning), the thought of starting one’s own business usually comes to mind. The idea of being your own boss, setting your own schedule, and having a significant amount of equity in a [profitable] company is a sought after lifestyle. While it is important to celebrate the successes of entrepreneurs, it would be foolish to only glorify the winners, and not recognize the potential downside of starting your own business.

Franchise Basics
Franchise Basics: Is Buying A Franchise Just Buying a job?
When you buy a franchise, you may also be buying a job, but you may also just be buying a franchise. Here’s what I mean: When you own your own business, you have the option of playing the role of General Manager, landscaper, burger flipper, or any other position you choose. However, because you own the business, you get to decide, and you may decide to simply hire for these positions. You can still play an active role overseeing the business as a whole, or you can put your trust in a manager that allows you to have a more passive role.

Instagram Secrets Of A Beauty Franchise
All of these businesses are using instagram to promote themselves to their audience, and they can do it for free with the snap of a smartphone camera and 2 minutes spent crafting a caption and #hashtags. However, some are doing it much better than others, and the franchise brands that are doing it the best are able to achieve audiences much wider than their footprint should allow.

Franchise Basics
How To Get Approved For A Franchise
A common misconception about franchises is that anyone can just buy one. If you have enough money, you can own a Jimmy John’s, a Dunkin’ Donuts, or a Planet Fitness. Yet, brands like these turn down people’s money all the time. And, in fact, any franchise I would want to be a part of would do the same, even at the sacrifice of brand growth (which is one of the reasons to join a franchise in the first place).
