10 Things to consider when opening a Franchise in a bad economy.

As a Franchise Consultant I talk to a lot of people that are interested in owning their own franchise. The one thing I keep hearing is that they want to wait until the economy gets better. Most of them don't realize is that the reason they are looking right now is because of the economy.

Things to consider:

1. Real estate is at it's lowest rates in years.
2. Landlords are in a negotiating mood.
3. Prime locations are available due to other closures.
4. Franchising thrives in this type of economy.
5. Employees are easier to find.
6. Employees cost less.
7. Contractors are bidding lower on build out costs.
8. Equipment costs are lower.
9. Financing is not hard to get IF you have good credit.
10. You need about $30k to $50k cash to start.
