I can answer questions on franchising for those exploring the purchase of a franchise. Selecting the right franchise business specifically for YOU is critical, and contrary to popular belief, franchising is not all burgers, shakes, and fries... food concepts represent only 19% of the number of franchises out there. There are concepts in just about every industry vertical from homeland security concepts to industrial concepts and consulting concepts to name a few. Helping navigate thru the over 4000 franchises at no cost is the value I bring. I help make sure that the business matches ones ideal business model, financial model, employee model, sales model, management model, and most importantly your exit strategy. I can assist anyone considering self-employment, even those not considering a franchise.Available

I can answer any questions relative to franchising in Canada. This includes legal requirements of franchisors to provide disclosure documents, which provincial jurisdictions have franchise laws, questions to ask franchisors if you are interested in being awarded a franchise, and how to investigate before you invest. I can answer questions relating to franchise agreements. From the franchisor stand point I can provide information on any issues that franchisors face while managing their franchise system. This can include things like how to set up an effective Franchise Advisory Council, how to deal with non-compliance and how to prepare for the termination of a franchisee. Available
