Step into Growth, Invest in a Proven Model
I skipped the 5 hardest steps of starting a business.
While the data shows that more than 80% of independent startups fail by year five, franchising offers a powerful advantage that’s worth considering: you can skip the first five challenging steps that typically eat up years of effort and money.¹
When you buy a franchise, you’re essentially purchasing the right to step into a proven model and start growing:
1. Finding a Winning Idea: No need to create the next big thing. Pick a proven concept that matches what you love instead of starting from zero.¹
2. Customer Research: Independent businesses burn thousands figuring out who might buy from them. Franchise systems hand you marketing plans based on real customer data.¹
3. Building a Name: Starting alone means nobody knows you exist. Franchises give you instant recognition.¹
4. Creating Business Systems: The real magic of franchising is getting tested systems. Franchise creators have spent years developing processes so you don’t waste time and money learning the hard way.¹
5. Finding Reliable Suppliers: Franchises use their size to get better deals and establish strong supplier networks, giving you better pricing from day one.¹
This shortcut means new franchise owners can focus on growing rather than building. While independent owners are still figuring out if their business idea works, franchise owners can concentrate on execution.
For anyone thinking about owning a business, this advantage is huge – you start at step six instead of step one. You’re buying years of business experience and avoiding painful learning curves.
The real question isn’t if you can build these five elements yourself – many can – but whether your time and talent are better spent on growth rather than foundation-building.
