People often ask me for advice on buying a franchise... From now on I will just send them a link to this video! Great interview Robert! Anyone thinking of buying a franchise should take this one to heart!
Very interesting information. These are information that you have always covered in your videos. I totally agree to look at the FDD and call people who still exist in the business and more importantly to call the people who closed or sold the business because those the one who will give you the true story. I think subway over saturated the market. Thank you for sharing
This was a great video. It would be nice to see a video on "How to tell if you can afford a franchise". I get confused with how I could finance, what options are available as a veteran, minority, etc... for financing. Understanding how much cash I would need vs. how much I could finance. For example, could I take out a loan for all of the startup costs? What types of rates are on these kind of loans? How much liquidity do I need? I just dont get any of that and I get confused.
Thanks! In most cases financing 100% is not advisable. Typically 30% down is the standard although there are exceptions if you have a THRIFT available. There are programs for veterans/minorities but there is no exact approach for every situation. Typically we take between 20-30 hours with clients to identify their risk tolerance, skills, local market demand, finances, etc. only when we know that can we make good recommendations. One size does not fit all! Give a call anytime if you want to take a look at what is available www.franchise.city/our-services

I'm such a fan of your channel, and this is so good! Just finished the whole thing, better than I expected which is saying a lot.

Subway sucks! Sold low paying “JOBS” franchises. Many closed including the original in Hoboken lol
