Prospective franchisees look at franchise opportunities for a variety of reasons: recent job loss, pending job loss, bored with retirement, helping a relative, etc. But most prospective franchisees will quickly start to make a list of things they want to see in a franchise concept – and things they don’t want to see. During a conference call last week, one of our East coast franchisees – who owns two Great Clips salons – shared his criteria for a franchise concept.
1) He didn’t want a food franchise.
2) He wanted a product or service that couldn’t be outsourced.
3) He wanted something recession-proof, or at least highly recession-resistant.
The cat’s already out of the bag – he’s a relatively new Great Clips franchisee so you know he met his criteria by joining our franchise system. What are you looking for? If you haven’t yet made a list of your criteria, it may be wise to take some time to think about it and write it down. Many of our franchisees will usually share criteria similar to the ones listed here. Very few of them say they “love hair”!
