franchising company

Franchising refers to the method of practicing and using another person's philosophy of business. The "franchisors" authorize the proven methods and trademarks of their businesses to "franchisees" for a fee and a percentage of gross monthly sales. Various tangibles and intangibles such as national or international advertising, training, and other support services are commonly made available by the franchisor. Agreements typically last five to twenty years, with premature cancellations or terminations of most contracts bearing serious consequences for franchisees.....

100% Q: What are the corporate details of the John Robert Powers Company?

Not of the franchises which are independent of the franchising company. We are more interested in information about the people that own the name "John Robert Powers" and who then sell the franchises and thus license the use of the name. What are the terms of the franchise contracts? What is the cost of a franchise in a specific area? What is the rate of failure of JRP franchise? What is the bankruptcy percentage of these franchises? What level of control does JRP retain re the marketing practices of the franchises. We are exploring the creation of a "Class" and are looking for data in common. Thanks

100% Q: How can know franchising is the right strategy for our company?

A:It boils down to dollars and cents. If the brand franchise is a popular one, you may not make the dollar targets you aspire simply because of popularity. Otherwise if the brand franchise is for a new or expanding market, then you stand to gain. Your investment vs how much you generate and how much you profit you gain should help you determine if this is the right business model. I have seen franchises fail simply because people assume the brand is strong. Do your math and research.
