Why Franchising? Should You Franchise?

FMS is the leading franchise development company that is focused and committed to providing only the most customized and effective franchise development services in the US.

Franchising is a unique distribution model and has a variety of attributes to the concept that make some businesses a fit for franchising and others not. The core components to successfully franchising your business include the following:

  1. Do you have a brand that people are drawn to? Have you had inquiries about your model from customers, friends, etc to open in new markets or to the franchise before?
  2. Does your business have an operating system in place that will allow you to teach and replicate what you do with new franchise owners?
  3. How have you integrated technology into your business?
  4. What marketing and business development platforms do you have in place that franchisees could benefit from?
  5. Are your financials reasonably strong and consistent?
  6. Is there a larger market for your model which would justify franchising the business?
FRANCHISE YOUR BUSINESS

When learning about franchise advantages or determining whether you should be franchising your business or not, we start with a no-obligation franchise consultation to review your business, discuss the operating model and help determine whether franchising is viable for you. Speak with one of our expert franchise consultants who have spent decades working with organizations to build, develop and execute franchise development and expansion strategies. Find out below if you should franchise your business and whether you have the industry, business model, or experience to be successful in the franchise marketplace. Learn more about the pros and cons of owning a franchise.

Advantages of Franchising your Business

People are naturally attracted to familiarity, and a process that is consistent regardless of the location in which it is being executed will lead to successful results. 

Franchising your business allows your brand to grow and duplicate at several levels:

  1. At the national or global level, all franchisees and corporate units contribute to a marketing fund that is used to promote the brand and build awareness for the company.
  2. At the regional level, franchisees work together through regional cooperatives where advertising dollars are spent in a region to build local awareness and leverage economies of scale in advertising and promotion spend.
  3. At the local level, franchisees are required to spend dollars in promoting and advertising the business in their immediate market. The combination of the advertising platforms maximizes the opportunity for brand development and makes franchising a win-win relationship between franchisor and franchisee.

Speed up Business Expansion – Franchising your business allows you to multiply a brand’s footprint, but with added manpower and capital to scale the growth.  The value of having independent business owners who have money invested and their direct, onsite focus is enormous and the performance of franchise-owned and operated businesses almost always outperforms company-owned locations of the same business model.

Increased Capital – Franchising your business allows you to multiply a brand’s footprint, but with added manpower and capital to scale the growth.  The value of having independent business owners who have money invested and their direct, onsite focus is enormous and the performance of franchise-owned and operated businesses almost always outperforms company-owned locations of the same business model.

Increased Focus on Strategy – The entrepreneur who is able to make this transition stops focusing on the small items inherent in managing a business and begins to focus on what strategic aspects will help drive the growth of the brand and scale the business.

Franchise Consultation

See if your business has the concept strength to be a successful franchise. This can be conducted over a phone interview or in-person to discuss your business, answer questions about franchising, and help you make better decisions about how to franchise your business.

Franchise Review

FMS will work with you to evaluate current business practices, the market you operate within, and how that translates to franchising. This will be conducted after the initial franchise consultation on phone and could consist of an in-person meeting to visit the location and review the operating concept. The key is understanding how your business operates and whether the model could succeed as a franchise.
