Readiness · 1 min read
Is your business ready to franchise?
Start with the model, the numbers and the support a new operator will need.
Can someone else run it?
Look at how the business operates without relying on the founder for every decision. Clear processes and training help another operator understand what good looks like.
Do the numbers make sense?
Review the costs of setting up and running a location, including the proposed franchise fees. Consider a range of trading scenarios rather than a single optimistic case.
What support will you provide?
Be clear about the training, guidance and ongoing support you can deliver. The offer should match the resources you actually have.
Next steps
If those three areas hold up, the next step is preparing the commercial material a candidate needs to make a decision — and being ready to answer hard questions about the numbers.
A successful business is the starting point. A repeatable model is the next step.
