Franchisee can be a company or an individual who holds a franchising license for the operation
of a service or sale of a good provided by the franchisor. There are several advantages and
disadvantages of becoming a franchisee, which are provided as under:
Advantages of becoming a franchisee are as follows:
 Franchisees can enjoy the independence of small business owners under the supervision
of big business organizations.
 No additional experienced business strategist is required because the big shot business
organization already sets the model and the franchisee needs to implement it under its
direct supervision.
 Franchisees are more successful than startups as per the latest record.
 It is easy to avail of finance to start a business because a franchisee holds the name of big
brand with it.
Disadvantages are as follows:
 There is no complete autonomy.
 It is only entering into a formal agreement with a large business organization, without
having any control or right in such large organizations.
 There are plenty of operational restrictions.
 Franchisees need to share profit with the larger organization.

No, the franchisee should not consider going to the franchise business for the first time. It is
better to find a financer from the market instead of getting a business model from other
organizations. Moreover, the franchise does not ensure autonomy to business. Thus, it must not
be considered.
