Why franchise?

What made you choose to franchise rather than create your own? For sure, there are a lot of factors involved for a person to be able to choose franchising. Kindly share your reasons or what made you choose to franchise.

Franchising is the way to go if you want to follow the safe proven way. I wouldn't not want to create my own because there is a LOT of risk involved and there is too much havoc when you are getting started. My question to you is why not join a laid out system from a company that works and earn from them?

Franchising is a great way to get started in the internet marketing industry, because you have the opportunity to learn as you go. You don't have to mess with setting up a whole new website if you've never done it, you generally get a good step-by-step instruction guide included with the franchise itself to walk through the steps of marketing the product.

There are downsides as well, and I plan to branch off totally on my own once I know the industry very well.

Thanks Tony for comments. I want to start franchise of some firm and will tell my feedback here.

It reduces the risk a lot. A lot of people like to move on from that onto their own service and it is a lot safer than going there from the get go.

Franchising is great because you already have the "name brand" and the quality advertising. Earning revenue can often be very quick and easy. The high francising cost is the only downside.

I like franchising, because being fairly new to internet marketing, I still
have a lot to learn, and who better to learn from than the guys who have set up this franchise and already have a proven system, which earns them good money.
So there is lots of training and help and I just duplicate what makes them
successful.
At this stage I wouldn't know how to go about starting my own internet business.

Franchising means honesty & confidence, I do believe.

Franchising can be great! Some can be more successful than others. The question is which one do you use? I have found talking to the owners can be beneficial. Also, looking at there marketing plan in play. Most are using old school marketing models/plans with state of the art products/services. Training and support is important! Do they offer a basic training structure or for example step-by-step, day-by-day trainings. Your success is greatly reliant on there training protocol and your learning curve. Anyways, just a few ideas to ponder over.
