Buying a franchise
Committing to a franchise is a big financial decision.
Prospective franchisees often use their life savings
to buy into the system. The stakes are also high on
the other side of the fence, as franchisors put their
reputation and business model on the line.
With this major commitment in mind, the Code requires
franchisors to disclose certain information to enable
prospective franchisees to make an informed decision.
Disclosure also allows the franchisor to put the key
requirements and rules of the franchise system on the
table.

5. FOCUS on fine tuning your actions to

all those starting out with a new
franchise is to gain new customers.
For some franchisees, this is the most
difficult thing they could ever do; it’s
completely outside of their comfort

franchisee who has to door knock or
cold call for their new business, the
first thing I tell them is, “don’t try to be

try to be a real business owner, and
develop relationships first. Treat people
as people, with real lives and real value.

something. It is also beneficial to think of
your products and services in terms of
how they can improve the lives of your

relationships, combined with a great
understanding of your own products
and services, will see sustainable
business growth.
