Investing in a Franchise

Investing in a franchise is an attractive option for those who want to run a business on their own, but who also want the backing and support of a more experienced entity - the franchisor. When you invest in the right franchise to own and operate, you gain the benefits of a well-recognized brand, an already established business model, a successful system to follow, and possibly more favorable funding options.

As a franchise owner, you also receive support in many essential areas that ...

Building a Bridge

If you know of anyone who is afraid of bridges due to a lack of trust, they may choose a different, longer, and more difficult route to reach their destination. Bridges can be scary indeed, especially if the construction isn't built correctly. For example, some bridges are built for bikes and pedestrians only. If a full-sized vehicle were to pass over a bridge such as this, the outcome more than likely would be devastating. As a franchise consultant, I help to build strong bridges between ...

Lead by Example

The philosophy Visconti embraces has helped to propel FranServe’s success. “People are flocking to franchise ownership. There are so many opportunities to own a business and be your own boss! The ‘new normal’ is entrepreneurship,” said Visconti.

Prior to becoming the CEO of FranServe in 2014, Visconti was the president and CEO of several global organizations. Her focus has always been on career and life coaching, so helping others find their perfect career is more than just a job ...

Be Driven by Purpose

To that end, Visconti has made giving back a top priority for FranServe. She even calls the company a “PDO,” coining an acronym for the term “purpose-driven organization.”

“We have a moral obligation to give back to the world on a bigger level,” she explained. “It’s incredibly important to me to give back on a global basis in ways that we can because it is about changing people’s lives.”

Through Fran-Aid, the company’s initiative dedicated to social responsibility, Ms. Visconti ...

They are called Franchise Consultants - professionals who assess the needs of entrepreneurial ...

Keep an Open Mind

While the words “franchise” or “franchising” may conjure images of popular fast food or convenience store chains, they are just the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Franchise business options span approximately 80 categories and include most professions and industries. From healthcare to financial services to education to pet grooming, there’s something for every professional work style and interest.

The initial investment required can also vary, ranging from $25,000 to ...

Don’t Travel Solo

It is understandable to be intimidated by all the details involved in launching a new business. After all, no one person can be an expert in all aspects of accounting, marketing, business development, team building, client relations, employee management and technology (just to name a few areas that running a business encompasses). That’s not even touching upon the industry-specific knowledge needed, depending on what type of business you decide to open.

The good news is that you don’t ...
