Tom’s Franchise Information Blog

There are over 4000 Franchises and Business Opportunities in the USA to choose from. Where do you start? You may Love working with your hands and are handy, or you may have 20 Years of Sales Experience. Many of you have been Department managers or you like the food industry, but have no Idea where to start.

Have you been one of those that have been downsized, or laid off? Is Now a Good Time to Start a New Business? Over and Over you have searched the Internet and found promise after promise of income, with dead ends. STOP. There is Help available.

I believe the best place to start is with a Franchise. Why? First, The Federal Trade Commission requires all Franchisers to submit to all potential Franchisees a document called the UFDD, before any money changes hands. The UFDD provides very detailed information on the franchise company, such as its history, information about the officers, litigation history, audited financial statements, the franchise agreement, and a current list of franchises with owners names and telephone numbers. The intent of the UFDD is that it provides enough information so that the prospective franchisee can make an informed decision.

Franchising is growing, because it offers aspiring, new business owners the best possible chance of succeeding with the least amount of risk. Within a decade or less, franchising will comprise of over 50% of the retail economy. Franchising will employ millions of people, and will enable hundreds of thousands to realize the American Dream of Successful business ownership.

The future of Franchising is as bright as can be. If you want to take the big step and go into business for yourself, NOW IS THE TIME!
