Product Description:


The truth you need to know before you buy a franchise

This straight-shooting franchise guide goes beyond the “how-to” to teach you what to expect when starting a franchise. Real-life stories from the trenches illustrate to you how to cope with the difficulties a franchise presents. Smart Franchising reveals the personality types most likely to succeed at franchising and warns you about the character traits that may increase the risk of failure. Plus, it offers an in-depth look at what happens during the research and investigation of a franchise, something glossed over in most franchise books.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Quick Education
Anyone looking for a quick education on franchise opportunities should take a few hours and read Joe's book. Extremely informative and worthwhile!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Considering Franchising - This is a must read !!!
This is an excellent book and a must read for anyone considering going into franchising. This book helped me eliminate many concepts which I initially thought were good.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Must Read for Anyone Interested in Franchising!
Definitely a must read BEFORE you buy a franchise! This book provides food for thought and makes you truly think long and hard about the whole franchising business.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good choice
This book was easy to read, but made it clear the process of being approved for a franchise and looking for an appropriate franchise. THe book put the process into perspective and helped me from becoming overwhelm with the amount of information.
