1. Franchisees gain numerous advantage when they purchase a franchise. First, while a franchisee may be opening a new store, it is part of an already established business and system. This means a franchisee has access to turnkey operations, allowing an increased speed to establishing and growing the business. Franchisees also get support for management and training activities, as well as financial assistance. Going hand in hand with this, a franchise already has an established brand name, quality of goods and service which have been standardized across the franchisor’s larger company, and national advertising programs from franchisors. Franchises also have large-volume, centralized buying power. A franchise has proven products, and
Schlosser tells us about how many companies expand their businesses by selling franchises. Selling franchises has been successful for many companies such as McDonald’s, Subway, and many others were able to expand using this route. In fact, some fast food companies open up some many franchises, that whenever the same restaurant is opened close to another one, that managers complain of losing business. Another thing the books informs us on is that when a franchise doesn’t work out then the fast food company has no choice than to close that area. Subway does this very often and is called “The worst franchise in America”. Next, the book talks about economics. There is a lot of risk taking when it comes to being a franchisee for a fast food restaurant. People who would like to become future franchisees can spend almost 1.5 million dollars just to become one. Before purchasing a franchise, people have to consider whether or not it will be worth the money, because if it doesn’t work out there is no way that

Evins asked a couple who ran a local antiques store, to help him enhance the space in the design of an old country store.
Tootsie roll pops are an iconic candy for all ages. Like most people, I grew up enjoying tootsie roll pops. I would imagine, over the years that I have eaten thousands of them. As an adult, I feel a bit nostalgic when eating one, always remembering the slogan, how many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie roll pop?

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. was founded in 1969 by Dan Evins in his home town of Lebanon, Tennessee. The first stores were conjoined with gas stations and strategically placed along the highway routes to attract travelers. In 1973, the Arab Petroleum Embargo began and by its end in March 1974, oil prices had dramatically increased from $3 to nearly $12 per barrel. As a result, only five short years after its inception, Cracker Barrel discontinued its gas stations and concentrated solely on the restaurant and country store aspects of the store’s design. Cracker Barrel proclaims itself to be a “home away from home” by sticking with a southern theme. Each restaurant has an old country store attached that sells items sometimes native to the specific stores’ locations. The company still maintains the traditions it has held since the beginning such as fireplaces and placing a peg game on each table. Although tradition has become somewhat of a trademark of Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores, Inc., throughout this paper, I will display how the company’s unwillingness to change in some areas has proven to be, and still continues to be detrimental to the organization.

These companies spend less on advertising and more on the actual product. That’s a very important concept in this industry, because their quality product at this discounted price gives them a niche in the market. Once a company establishes a niche, they become more visible to the
Franchisors are increasingly having to be more and more selective in the adoption of franchisees with factors such as economic climate and the potential difficulty with growth playing key factors in the decision making process.

Not having to answer to a corporate boss is the dream of many and the flexibility that owning a business franchise creates provides this option. Success is not reached by simply creating a business, however. The level of success is measured by the size and efficiency of the business. Business growth is the driving force of the economy.
