A franchise can present a great opportunity for business.

A lucrative option for starting your own business is that of
opening a franchise. For a set fee, you purchase the rights
to offer specified goods or services, according to set
guidelines, in a set location, for a specified timeframe.

In purchasing franchise rights, you have bought a proven
method for operating a business and that method has been
tried and proven to be successful in certain markets and
geographic locations. When purchasing franchise rights, you
have to sign a contract to offer the specific goods or
services, according to the contract specifications.
