Farin says prospective franchisees should come to
the table with a collaborative mindset. It’s also impor-
tant that the franchisee be a people person who can suc-
cessfully communicate with the landlord, clients, and
the franchisor. “If they can do this, they will make it big
time. They need to know how to smile and engage. They
need to wake up in the morning and understand that
today is the day to go make it happen.”
Farin’s advice to franchisees? Understand your pas-
sion and what you want to do, and know who is behind
the franchise and what they provide. “It’s easy to sign
a franchise agreement, but you need to understand,
are they training you well? Helping you find a site loca-
tion? Offering up-to-date operations manuals? These
are the important components a franchisee needs to
look at.”SSwwwweeett RRRRReewwaarrdddss
