GOAL CLARIFICATION\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Most people reach a point in their lives where they question the path they are on and have uncertainty about the future.

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

THE PERFECT FRANCHISE <\/span>PROCESS<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The TPF process has helped thousands of people, just like you, successfully explore franchise business ownership. The process is structured to help you make an informed decision about whether you should or should not join a franchise, and if you do, which franchise is the best fit for you. During the exploration process, you will need to commit up to 3-5 hours a week for interaction with franchisors, franchisees, reviewing documents and videos, exploring funding options and speaking with your TPF consultant. Parallel to the TPF process, each franchisor has their own process that they take you through so they can decide if you will be awarded a franchise. Just as you vet them, they are vetting you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

STEP 1: IDENTIFY AND CALIBRATE YOUR PRIORITIES\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

We take the time to understand your personal, professional and financial goals along with your skillset, strengths and interests – anything that is important to matching you to a franchise brand. At the same time, we share the basics of franchising – the more you know the better your outcomes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

STEP 2: MATCH YOU TO THE RIGHT BRANDS\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Based on your goals and interests, we identify brands that are a great fit for you. Part science and part art, franchise matches are identified that meet your unique goals and objectives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

STEP 3: EVALUATE COMPATIBLE FRANCHISES<\/span><\/h4>\n

During due diligence you will speak regularly with the franchisors, review documents and speak with franchisees. Our proprietary 6 factor due-diligence process guides you as you learn everything needed to make an informed decision.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

FAQs<\/h4><\/div>

We’re here to answer all your
\nquestions.<\/h2><\/div>

This is a sample text description.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Are All Franchises Created Equal?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
No! Some brands are fabulous and others are not. When comparing brands, there are often crucial differentiators in the business model, product\/service, and support that impact the <\/span>ability of the franchisees to succeed and scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Franchises succeed or fail because of the quality of their systems. That is the area you want to kick the tires on. <\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Do Franchisees Always Succeed?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

There are significant performance differences between franchisees. So no, not all franchisees succeed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of franchisee performance like a bell curve. Most franchisees are doing fine, the top franchisees are crushing it, and the bottom are struggling. Your objective during due diligence and validation is to thoroughly understand the business model, its drives, who succeeds, and who struggles. If you don\u2019t think you will be in the top 25% of franchisees, than that concept is not for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Will I Lose My Individuality in a Franchise?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

While you will follow the franchisor\u2019s business model, you will be able to create the culture and customize your business through the products or services offered, marketing strategies, hiring, and management. Some brands allow more customization than others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make no mistake about it: Franchisees run their own businesses and put their signatures on them.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Do Franchises Provide Everything Needed?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
From a business model and support standpoint, they do. Franchises offer systems, processes, support, training, coaching, real estate services, and marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Franchisees must bring work ethic, drive, motivation, and people skills.<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>How do you get paid? or How is your service free to me?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Our fee is paid by the franchise company.\u00a0 You will pay the same franchise fee whether we are involved in the process or not.\u00a0 That is a federal law mandated by the Federal Trade Commission. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Are Franchises More Expensive than Starting Your Own Business?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

There are fees associated with franchise ownership. Many of those fees are for items that you will need in any business. The financial benefit of franchising is that it reduces expenses by superior processes, improved purchasing power, and centralized support. The efficient nature of the franchise model, higher success rates, and scalability ensure that the better franchises are not more expensive than starting your own business.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Can\u2019t I Just Find a Franchise on My Own?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Yes, you can. You can do a google search or go to a franchise portal and find brands. However, if you want to optimize your decision, this is not the best approach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are thousands of franchises available in the United States. But not all of them provide strong business models and support. In addition, it is easy to get excited about a concept that is not right for you. An interesting fact is that over 75 percent of people who invest in a franchise choose one not originally considered. Using an experienced TPF Franchise Consultant increases your chances of finding the right franchise, and our services are provided at no cost to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a big decision in your life. Maximize your chances of success.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Does Franchising Take the Fear Out of Business Ownership?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Noooooooo! There is always fear when you change directions, start a new endeavor, and leave your comfort zone. However, franchising provides the comfort of knowing you are supported by a team vested in your success, and you are part of a proven system. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>What Support Will the Franchisor Provide?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Franchisors provide significant levels of initial and ongoing support. Perhaps the most important support they provide is psychological. Knowing that you have a proven model, strong marketing, operations, and training provides a needed confidence boost because executing a system is easier than creating one. Franchisors will support franchisees in all ways necessary and appropriate. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Should I Buy a Franchise or a Non-Franchise Business?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

A major benefit and differentiator of franchising versus non-franchised business opportunities is that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulates franchising, and the regulations are in place to protect the franchisee. The government requires numerous disclosures and regulates how, when, and by whom information can be communicated. Franchising is a much more predictable model and much easier to perform due diligence on than business opportunities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In contrast \u201cbusiness opportunities\u201d often masquerade as franchises, but they are unregulated and can make any claim they want because it does not need to be verified or regulated. The franchise world, with its FDD, is much easier to validate than business opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
