FOCUS ON FRANCHISES
FRANCHISE PROMOTIONAL SERIES
Franchises
BY AMANDA GLEASON
Call it the new American dream: Nearly half of us
now desire to own our own business, which is why
it's no big surprise to find franchising catching on
across the country. Perhaps it's the allure of working
for yourself, or maybe it's the urge to be in a business
you're passionate about-whatever the
reason, the entrepreneurial spirit has taken hold
of hundreds of thousands of Americans. For many
though, knowing where to begin is the trickiest part.
Fear not-one of the first things franchisees realize
is how much support franchisors offer. If you've got a
zest for owning a business, franchising may be JUST
THE JOB FOR YOU.
