Mister Franchise

WARNING: DON'T BUY A FRANCHISE WITHOUT THIS BOOK! Franchising is part of the American way of life, and it's not limited to McDonald's and Dunkin' Donuts. Hotels, bars, salons, gyms, restaurants, day care, car repair shops, pet care, schools, real estate brokers, home construction-the spirit of entrepreneurship is alive and well. There are more than 1,500 franchises available and more than 750,000 franchise establishments in the USA.
If you want to be your own boss, go into franchising.
But there are so many questions: How much will it cost? What type is best for me? Where do I find the right one?
Mister Franchise himself, business insider David Slater, answers those questions and more and helps you avoid the most common (and costly) mistakes new entrepreneurs make. As the founder/CEO of some of the world's most famous and successful franchises-including Mister Donut, which went on to merge with Dunkin' Donuts-he has the insights and expert advice to guide you through the process of starting or purchasing your own business. Mister Franchise reveals:
- The pros and cons of franchising: is it really right for you?
- The art of tracking sales and cultural trends to predict the next big franchising opportunity.
- Financing 101, from how to raise capital to researching and using your available resources.
A franchise can be a goldmine if you know the secrets. This book will be your treasure map to limitless success!
