Franchise consultancies are offering franchise opportunities to grow their networks, not only in the UK, but worldwide. Consultancy franchise opportunities typically provide a wide-range of franchise-related services to other businesses that are looking to expand by franchising, as well as services to businesses currently franchising and individuals and organisations looking to own and operate a franchise. Consultancy franchises will more than likely appeal to individuals that already have extensive business experience and are interested in working with businesses rather than consumers. An ideal franchisee would have the ability to explain, sell and deliver professional franchise consultancy advice and guidance. An understanding of business plans, corporate infrastructure and the ability to build business relationships is highly recommended. These white collar franchise opportunities typically offer serious earnings potential for ambitious individuals.
