Franchising
2017 CUSTOM CONTENT
Franchising supports almost 20 million jobs and is responsible for over $2 trillion in economic output each year. With an uncertain economy and an incresingly tough job market, now is an ideal time to consider the latest opportunities in franchising. This year, Custom Content will present seven sections in partnership with the International Franchise Expo. Each section will present our small business readers with particular, unique aspects of the franchising experience, with possible topics including:
• The A to Z’s of buying a franchise– from how to apply your existing skills to finding new sources of capital
• Is your existing business duplicable? How to turn our current operations into a successful franchise
• What does the franchise disclosure document– in which a franchise has to disclose its history, officers, expertise, and startup costs to potentioal franchis-ers– mean to you?
• How to add a new concept to an existing business through a multi-unit business property.
For advertisers with a franchising message, this is a great opportunity to reach our highly-motivated and success- oriented audience.
