I’ll start out with a confession — I love franchising as a vehicle for growth. I think it’s the best business model that has ever been created. In fact, it’s the strongest, most successful business system out there.
I think most people don’t know that, though. But when they drive down the street and see nothing but franchises, whether it’s that car dealership, the McDonald’s, the RE/MAX office, or they go to a Miami Heat game — the Miami Heat is a franchise — there’s no question that franchises are everywhere, and it’s no surprise.
