In today’s global economic status, everybody must be creative, resourceful and assertive. Laid- off workers must not mourn over the misfortune, instead see it as an opportunity to get up and move on. This is the right time to be your own boss, be an entrepreneur. You must not let this crisis pull you down and the rest of the working class. You can make a difference, you can create jobs. Yes, you heard it right; you can be the boss of your own business and at the same time provide job opportunities to others. All these are possible through FRANCHISING!

Franchise business in the Philippines is one of the most outstanding and successful businesses. Look at Jollibee and the rest of the giant food chains sprouting around. These are just few results of franchising. Whenever you think of opening or starting up of a business, it is always imperative to know all the details of the entity you would like to engage in. In franchise business, money is not the top most important, but rather your knowledge on the process and the product that you would like to offer to your future customers. There are few factors that you need to consider if you are eyeing on this kind of business. First consideration is the product. You must choose a franchise that interests you the most. Choose the one that you frequently use at home or at work. Feed your mind, and make some research about it. Second factor to consider is the customers. After you have chosen a product, then think about your future patrons. Study your market so you can offer them the right product or service.

Starting a business whether it is small or grand always requires a careful study. The next factor to take into account is the location. This factor is the most crucial part because the life of your business greatly depends here. You have to place your business where your clients are. More so, you have to remember that competition in any franchise is stiff. In one area, there may be more than one kiosk or store offering the same products that you have. So, how are you going to solve that? Always keep in mind to look for the best location where there are more customers and fewer competitors. The next thing to note on is the demand. This factor is somehow related to the location of your business. You must be in the place where most if not all of your customers are since the more customers you will have the greater the need or demand of your product. Another very important factor is the cost. You must know how much you are willing to invest in your franchise. Know your starting capital, production expense, marginal and employment costs. This is essential since you have to retrieve your previous expenses and at the same time have profit. Last but definitely no the least factor is your capacity. You must be serious, positive and enthusiastic in pursuing your franchise. Take note that your franchise can grow big if you put heart into it.

Tips For Researching The Best Franchise Business

When considering the best franchise opportunity for you, there's a few things to look at when doing your research. If you research these things right, you give yourself the best possible chance of success. Research the wrong things and you might be doomed before you even get started.


1. Start-up Costs - Some franchises cost as little as P100,000 all the way up to a couple of hundred thousand pesos. On top of that, depending on which franchise it is, there may be start-up costs in getting an office or retail location, leasing or purchasing equipment, inventory, holding costs, fixed costs, variable costs, etc. I think I've used the word 'costs' a bunch in this section.

You have to really understand ALL the costs when finding the best franchise opportunity for you. Sometimes a home-based franchise might be appealing because you don't have the costs of what's mentioned above. Sometimes all you need is a computer, telephone and Internet connection and you can run your entire franchise. Like everything, do your research first.

2. Scalability - This point is so important but it's overlooked so many times. What I really mean here is that you have to know what kind of return you can expect on your investment. Is the return going to make you the money to achieve your financial goals? The reality is that most franchises will not get you to the promised land by themselves. It usually requires owning multiple franchise to achieve the income and lifestyle that you truly desire, but not always. Once again, your research can open up some hidden nuggets of gold.

3. Royalties - Companies like to get paid just like you right? Yeah, I thought so. Royalties can range anywhere from 2%-8% depending on the business but what's pretty universal is that the royalties are based on gross revenue and not net profits. Ouch. That can hurt depending on the franchise.

In fact, some franchises have a minimum royalty fee no matter the circumstances. For instance, some car wash franchises have a minimum in place even during the rainy season where business essentially 'all washed out'. That can put some people in a bad situation or even out of business. Do your research carefully and make sure the best franchise opportunity for you fits into your parameters.


4. Passion - Now your passion isn't something you can research in finding the best franchise opportunity, but it's vital to the process. We all dream of owning our own business and but the truth is its very hard work and long hours. If you're not passionate about what you do, then you won't put in the necessary time and effort to succeed.

You also need to understand what you want out of life and have balance. If your goal is to be home every night and on weekends, don't get a franchise where the busy times are at night and on weekends. Be smart about your decision and keep your priorities and goals in mind that is in alignment with your values.

Bottom line is there's a lot of factors when considering owning a franchise. Take everything above into consideration, do the proper research and choose the best franchise opportunity that is right for you and your family.

Why Do Filipinos Franchise?

On the flip side, owning a franchise usually requires territory restrictions which could affect your bottom line, you normally have to pay royalties on the gross revenue and you have to have a considerable net worth to be considered for owning a franchise.Bottom line is that both sides have good things and bad things.Look at the most successful franchise in the world, McDonald's.You can set your own prices, you can market however you choose and you don't have to follow any strict guidelines or stay inside the box.That's because of its system.It is one of the most recognized brands in the world and you get the same experience everywhere even though their food is not even close to being the best.Another reason individuals buy franchises is because they don't have to go out and build supplier relationships, create marketing initiatives, create systems and infrastructures or reinvent the wheel.In all honesty, part of the decision really should be how risk averse someone is.As an entrepreneur, if you know the story of both sides, you can make a wise decision based on what you're comfortable with.I mean, that's the American dream in a nutshell.It usually requires a handful of them, but not always.So a great question to ask is 'Why buy franchises when you can start your own business with your own conditions under your own rules'.Owning your own business gives you the flexibility to grow as big as you want just like Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, etc.So many people turn to entrepreneurship and business ownership looking to live that 'American Dream' and the happiness that comes with it.That's usually because a lack of planning, lack of capital and a lack of systems.First, since you are the head honcho, you can literally do whatever you want (within the law of course) and you can build your business however you want.

Another reason people don't buy franchises is the scalability factor.

I would argue that most people want to work for themselves, set their own schedule and make as much money as they want, right?If they like high risk and high rewards, then a traditional business would be good for them.Well the truth is both have some advantages and some disadvantages.Owning your own business also comes with its own sets of challenges and rewards.Usually you can't make a significant income by just owning 1 franchise.That's a legitimate question and one that needs some discussion, so let's get started.If they like lower risk and small to medium reward, then a franchise could be a good way to go.Owning a franchise significantly reduces that number.Before you get all excited about being your own 'cowboy' in the wild west, understand that 95% of all businesses fail in the first 3 years.Trust me, I get it.So now the question really is, "what kind of business is right for me?Franchises have a system in place that is PROVEN to have results and they usually have strong brand names associated with them.People buy franchises mostly because of a few main factors.I think you get the idea.Should I consider buying a franchise or starting my own business from scratch.People can own their own business and 'let it all ride' based on their expertise or they can buy franchises and have a much better chance of success, just not a huge success with just 1 franchise.
