What Are Some Recession Proof Franchises? | Franchise Article

2010-07-31T15:44:00.000-07:00

Article: What Are Recession Proof Franchises?

Due to the major economic crisis we are currently experiencing their has been a heightened interest in business opportunities and franchises that have the right stuff to weather and potentially thrive during this stormy environment. Recession proof franchises are businesses that traditionally offer products and services that consumers and business owners just can’t (or wont) live with out. The demand for these types of non-discretionary products and services is fairly consistent because they are considered necessary to run a household or successful business even during a major economic downturn.

Below are a few franchise business categories and industries that are traditionally considered recession proof:

Automotive Services: When consumers hold back on making new car purchases during tough economic times, the repair and maintenance of their current vehicles generally becomes the priority. Auto service businesses and franchises such as car repair, oil & lube, and even tire centers tend to do well, and in many cases thrive, during recessionary times because of this market dynamic.

Tax Preparation Services: Well you know the old adage about the certainty of death and taxes. We may be in a recession, but regardless we still have to pay our taxes every year. Tax preparation franchises opportunities like Liberty Tax Service even actively promote their business model as a recession proof business, and I can’t argue with that claim or the continued growth of this industry even during a recession.

Senior Care: With life expectancy on the rise and the advent of approximately 70 million baby boomers set to retire in the next 2 decades, the senior health care looks industry like a safe bet for very strong growth going forward. Dozens of senior care related franchise opportunities have emerged to service this niche already, and it seems likely that an even a severe economic downturn will not deter families from providing care for their loved ones.

Hair Care: Getting your hair cut by a professional at a low cost “no appointment style” hair salon franchise like Great Clips or Fantastic Sams has always been an affordable convenience that most consumers will continue to use even during a recession. Plus it has been stated and validated many times that keeping up appearances regardless of the state of the economy is not an option for many consumers.

Disaster Restoration Services: This is another industry that traditionally holds up very well during a recession because it is a non-discretionary and vital emergency service that home and business owners may need because of damage created by a fire or flood.

Franchisees Most Frequent Complaints | Franchise Article

2010-07-31T15:23:00.000-07:00

Article: Franchisees Most Frequent Complaints with Their Franchisers

It is inevitable that starting and successfully operating any small business today is always going to generate an ever evolving list of complaints and disappointments for most owners. Entrepreneurs that choose franchising as the means to open a small business will have many of the same complaints as independent owners do along with a few unique ones because they are ultimately bound to a long term relationship with their franchiser. Here are a few of the most common complaints I hear from franchise owners regarding their relationship and experiences with their franchiser.

My Franchiser Is My Competitor:

This is one the most common, and in my opinion most valid complaints I hear from some franchise owners. It is the nature of small business that you are going to have competitors, but when your franchiser is creating the competition and diluting your market share by opening multiple locations uncomfortably close to yours that’s a tough pill to swallow. Before you buy a franchise business make sure you thoroughly investigate and understand the rights and restrictions for your specific franchise territory. This would include speaking to other current franchisees in your target territory and asking them to share their experiences with competition from other franchisees.

Those Monthly Royalty Fees:

I have found that many new franchisees are so excited about getting there location open that they often defer any concerns about paying monthly royalty fees. However, once the initial excitement wears off, and they are involved full time in the hard work it takes to become successful those royalty fees become a much more tangible reality and commitment. The biggest complaint I hear from some franchisees regarding paying royalty fees is that they feel the franchiser does very little or nothing in return for them. Whether that’s true are not (I have no doubt that it is in some cases) unfortunately at the end of the day it is ultimately the responsibility of the franchisee to adhere to the terms of the franchise agreement they signed. Before signing any franchise agreement make sure during the disclosure process you speak to as many current franchisees possible and ask them if they feel they are getting real value from the royalty fees they pay.

Too Many Restrictions:

I often hear complaints from some franchise owners regarding the number of operating restrictions placed on them by their franchiser. Many complain that the franchiser exerts onerous control on how the business can be operated and are often frustrated that they are unable to react independently to local market realities and demands. I am sure a lot of these complaints are valid, but I guess I’m a little less sympathetic to these types of complaints for the simple fact that the franchisee chose to buy into a franchise system with known controls and restrictions. Many of which have been proven to given the franchisee a greater chance of success- which is the essence of the franchising. That being said, I would advise before buying any franchise business you honestly ask yourself if you have the right personality to follow a pre-determined franchise business system and all its inherent operating rules and restrictions.

Business Potential Oversold:

As a Business Broker I have heard a number of new and established franchise owners complain that they felt they were oversold on the potential earning power of their franchise business. This is a tough complaint to validate because it is generally a known fact that most franchisers do not disclose their earnings and are generally very careful about discussing earnings potential for a typical franchise location. That being said in my experience sometimes the franchiser (or their sales people) along with existing franchisees can sometimes paint an overly optimistic picture about how soon and well a typical franchise location will perform. Your best bet to mitigate this potential disappointment is to speak candidly with current and former franchise owners and ask them if your expectations are overly ambitious.

Summary:

Please keep in mind that all prospective business buyers should thoroughly investigate any franchise or business, obtain all appropriate disclosure documents available, and seek expert consultation prior to making any investment decisions.
