Do you own a franchised business? Over 400,000 franchised businesses currently operate in the United States, which is a true testament of free enterprise. There are many advantages of franchised businesses, which anyone who owns a small business has thought about. One thing they probably have not considered; whether they are franchisee or not is that in a franchise system; your local franchise runs as store exactly like yours. They are aware of every single aspect of your business. So it makes sense that if you want to go on vacation you should have the closest franchisee watch your store for you and you can return that favor for them later.
When a franchisee goes on vacation, they may or may not have a person who is capable of handling their entire business. As any business person knows, this isn't easy. You must stay on schedule, keep up the quality and still make every customer coming thru the door happy. There are vendors, phone calls and new business. You might make a deal with your neighboring franchisee to help them with their overload and keep an eye on things while they are away. If you work out a trade, they can help you when you will be away. You should also call your regional director and alert them as well. That way, between your arrangement with a neighboring franchisee and your regional director of the parent franchise corporation, your business will be safe and productive while you are gone.
If you are not in a franchised business this is not a possible option. Think about it, think about a franchise.
