Evaluation Criteria: Best Business Consulting & Broker Franchises
Growth Prospect
Business consulting franchises grow over time by ensuring the long-term growth and success of their client businesses. During our analysis, we highlight the franchises which have shown historical success in growing the businesses of their clients through their franchised businesses. This generally in turn leads to the growth and expansion of franchised businesses and ensuring the future stability of the franchise brand.
Marketing Support
It is important to get the word out about your business to an audience relevant to your core business. We understand the importance of having a franchisor which will provide your business with the help it needs to reach that target audience. We compare the amount of marketing and advertising support the franchisors offer their franchises in terms of getting exposure towards business owners and target niches.
Training
Having properly trained and experienced business consultants will ensure clients are confident in the advice you offer. It is important for business consulting franchises to have experienced business owners and managers involved in offering consultation. We compare how different franchisors set standards for the types of experience and education a business consultant must have before assisting other businesses.
Ongoing Support
Many franchisors offer their franchises additional support beyond the process of getting started and beyond the financial side of the business. It is important for the franchisor to lend franchisees their ear in order to resolve any issues or answer any questions franchisees may have on a subject. It is also important for franchisors to ensure their franchisees are doing what needs to be done to grow and expand.
Value
There is a lot to be said about the quality and value of branding initiatives and cumulative values of a franchise. We compare the overall financial value of the franchisor over time to determine their growth rate in addition to the number of franchises being operated on an annual basis. It is important to see the value of a franchise grow over time as individual franchises become success and grow through their own means.
