Are you still struggling to find work? A lot of unemployed workers became business owners during the recession, and, as we shared in our “Starting a Business in 2012” post, it’s not too late for you to jump in as well. Unlike starting from scratch, franchising offers structure and support than lone entrepreneurs receive, including:
- Financing that is more attainable.
- Franchise consultants that are available free of charge.
- Intense training on the business and ongoing support.
- Better economies of scale and buying power.
Three Girls’ client FranNet of the Bay Area knows that now is the time to act: the government is pro small business, there are various programs and incentives available to owners, interest rates are also at all-time lows and labor costs are down. Their free conference coming up March 1 will be a fantastic way for locals that are interested to find out more.
