Who are FranNet Franchise Consultants?
A FranNet franchise consultant is a local, franchise expert to advise you on franchise and business opportunities. Within our group, we have past and present franchisors, franchise executives, franchisees, regional and area developers, and other business professionals.
How Much Does a Franchise Consultant Cost?
Zero. Working with FranNet is absolutely free. How is that possible? Similar to real estate agents that receive a commission from the seller, we receive our broker fee directly from the franchise that you may buy.
Will I End Up Paying More For a Franchise If I Work With a FranNet Franchise Consultant?
No. Unlike buying a home or a car, Franchise sales and fees are federally regulated and the cost is not able to be changed regardless of if a franchise consultant broker is involved or not. What that means for you is that you get expert franchise guidance, consulting, and introductions, without any risk of a price mark-up. Learn more here.
How Can FranNet Reduce Risk?
FranNet can help save you time and money in several ways: by pre-qualifying prospective franchisee’s to ensure no wasted qualification time; by helping educate your prospective franchisee’s on the eventual purchase and operation of your franchise concept, which sets better expectations among all parties; by providing you an instant North American network present in all major markets, with local presence and expertise; and by reducing overhead by offering a primarily post-pay service. Instead of worrying about generating qualified candidates on your own, you can join a proven, effective, and efficient referral network.
