Risks of Franchising
"Executives are leaving their jobs and buying franchises because they think it's safer than starting their own business. They need to think again", says new article in Fortune Magazine.
The article goes on to point that individuals are overwhelmed by the information in the UFOC disclosure documents, yet do not hire compentent a franchisee attorney to review it.
Is this the entire story: smart executives don't pay for competent professional advice?
It would be odd if individuals used to employing professionals would as a group not do so when their own financial interests were at stake.
Perhaps franchisee attorneys as a group are not making a good business case for their own expertise?
