An Open Letter to the Franchising Community We all believe in the power of franchising to empower entrepreneurs and fuel local economies. It has been proven time after time. Right now, our business model is facing a critical challenge. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is considering new regulations that could profoundly impact how we operate as a franchise industry. The FTC has issued a 2nd RFI in regard to franchising practices, with the resultant possibility of sweeping, one-size-fits-all regulations. These changes will hurt the flexibility and innovation that make franchising so powerful. Franchising needs your help. Whether you’re a franchisor, franchisee, or industry partner, share your story with the FTC by October 10, 2024. Let them know how franchising has allowed you to thrive, the importance of collaboration in our model, and the risks to your operation posed by these potential regulations. Together, we can ensure the FTC understands the real-world impact of franchising. Stand with us to protect the future of our industry. Make your voice heard, it is powerful. Thanks, Y'all. ?? , Kristopher Bloomin' Blinds is a proud member and supporter of the International Franchise Association's efforts to protect, enhance and promote franchising. #Franchising #SmallBusiness #Entrepreneurship #FTC #Regulations #FranchiseIndustry https://lnkd.in/gVXR39zr

A franchise is only as strong as its weakest link. The notorious weakest link? The Field Service Consultant. These people are the intermediaries between the franchisor and the franchisee and play a crucial role as: the brand ambassador, the trainer, the inspector, the facilitator, the operations expert, the marketer, the financial and business consultant and so forth. We see a direct correlation between franchise success and the skills of the field service consultant.

Aicha Bascaro dives into the expectations between franchisor and franchisee. I believe managing expectations are the key to a successful relationship. Not every franchise is created equal. Franchisors are responsible for building out the brand systems. As a potential franchisee, you are still responsible for implementing your own business systems.
