If a franchisee changes their signage to operate independently within six months, a robust system for managing franchise partners is necessary. Consider McDonald’s strategy: they buy land, build on it, and then rent it out to franchisees. This gives McDonald’s complete control over the franchise. The franchisee, benefitting from a prime location, finds value in staying with the McDonald’s brand for guaranteed profits. Our approach with one of our clients was different. We used a website for all orders. This online platform was key to maintaining control. Franchisees would likely only stay with us for a maximum of six months without it, as they could build up a customer base, change the signage, and then operate independently. Therefore, creating a strong control system for franchise partners is essential before franchising your business. #scale #franchise

Why does “Responsible Franchising” even matter? Other than wanting to do right by our franchisees and build systems that allow them to scale their business and have predictable results? It actually matters WAY more than you think. Here’s why: People outside our industry hear one of two things when they hear the word “franchise”. 1 – They think franchising is just McDonalds, Chic Filet or other legacy fast food brands 2 – Or if they know more than that, they think things like, “stay away from franchises, the fees are too high” or “this guy I knew bought a franchise and he didn’t get any support and had to close his business” The next generation of franchisors will do the right things to end this. Lawsuits and irresponsible behavior will stop. The next generation of franchisors CARE about helping franchisees. The franchise model is such an incredible way to generate significant wealth IF it is done properly and that's the only way it should be done. #responsiblefranchising #weareaFRANCHISEEindustry
