Safety
For the franchisee, franchising is about risk reduction and safety. You give up the total freedom associated with being an “independent owner” to become part of a group of people committed to building a brand and dominating markets using a common, tested operating system as Pop-A-Lock does. You don’t have to guess about the most effective way to build your business, there is a specific system to use.
Proven Systems
Pop-A-Lock provides a proven method of doing business (the operating system), a brand or trademark that will have value in the eyes of the customer based on execution of the operating system, and initial and ongoing support so you won’t have to reinvent the wheel to be successful.
You provide capital to expand the brand faster than the franchisor can by itself and management talent to run the business and execute the operating system.
Predictable Results
A franchise system should also provide group buying power to cut your operating expenses, faster growth due to tested marketing programs, predictable results based on your adherence to the operating system and less risk of your invested capital as Pop-A-Lock does.
