2. Check before joining

It is difficult to judge a franchise project only from the superficial conditions such as investment scale and number of franchise stores. In fact, entrepreneurs should examine the profit model and joining system of the project.

1. First of all, it is best to investigate the planned franchise projects in secret. Go to the project franchise store to spend money, chat with the shopkeeper or clerk as a customer, estimate the daily turnover, analyze the customer base and consumption cycle, etc. After the investigation lasts for a period of time, check whether the results of the investigation are consistent with the contents introduced by the joining headquarters, so as to judge the honesty attitude of the other party.

2. Don't cooperate with dishonest allies. If the project doesn't have a franchise store at all, or the first store is less than a year old, you ignore it.

3. Finally, it is necessary to understand the improvement of the franchise system of franchise projects. For example, check the understanding and operation level of the head of the alliance to see if he has a complete set of written and operable franchise management manuals and franchise store operation manuals; See if he has a responsible and cautious attitude when choosing franchisees and franchisees; See if he attaches importance to the interests and follow-up management of franchise stores.

4. The best way of this kind of investigation is to attend the training organized by the leaders of the alliance, and then prepare a lot of questions to make them "embarrassed" to see if they are fully prepared for joining the project.
