What are the best franchise opportunities: owning a single franchise or becoming an Area Representative?

In the past, best franchise opportunities were found in owning a single franchise. Many couples want to start their own business to spend more time together. If you want to work for yourself or retire to start your own business, you can begin by buying just one location. With one location, you can have more control over your time and your income. The single unit franchise still provides a wonderful opportunity for anyone today.

On the other hand, many business people want to grow a large business to protect and grow their wealth. This type of arrangement is typically called an Area Representative Program and has been growing over the last few decades. Under this type of arrangement, a business person works with a franchisor to develop and grow franchises within a specific area or region.

An Area Representative is someone who owns a successful franchise and wants to purchase more. Entrepreneurs who want to run many locations and build a larger business are drawn to these opportunities. Obviously, this takes a larger amount of investment so this type of business may not appeal to someone with limited resources. Even corporations can be involved in multiple franchise businesses today.

If you have the resources to take on more locations, you can usually count on having a more stable business. You can take advantage of cost savings by sharing some overhead and back office expenses among several locations. The franchisor will often offer reduced fees the more locations that you agree to open.

Another difference is that with a single franchise, you manage the day to day operations yourself, while in a multiple franchise business, managers are hired for each of the locations. The business skills required are different for each type of operation.

Either way, you go, you need to find the right company to become involved with. Both options involve a lot of your time and money. Be sure that you do business with people you like and trust. Spend some time with both single unit franchisees and Area Representatives to learn more about both options.

The best franchise opportunities today are both single franchises and multiple locations.
