As a franchisor, you’re always on the lookout for the right entrepreneur to franchise your business and represent your brand. You know what you’re looking for and it’s important that potential candidates meet your criteria and expectations. And while it’s essential to make sure they’re the right fit for you it’s equally important that you’re a good fit for them. Investing in a business is a serious commitment and in order to attract and recruit high-quality candidates that will successfully uphold your brand’s image and values, it’s important to know what franchisees look for in a franchisor.

Are Your Values and Company Culture What They’re Looking For?

One of the most significant factors that franchisees consider before committing to a contract is whether or not your company’s culture and values align with theirs.

But demonstrating how compatible your values are with theirs can show franchisees how well your organization can help them achieve their business goals.

What Makes Your Product or Service Stand Out From the Competition?

With so many options available for franchisees, it’s important to be able to demonstrate the benefits that come with franchising your business. What makes your product unique? What sets you above the competition? And how will your product help them be profitable in their market are all important questions potential investors will have. So be prepared to show them how them why your franchise offers the best products and services available.

What Kind of Information Do You Provide Prospective Investors?

A successful business relationship is built on mutual trust and being able to quickly provide potential investors with basic information is an essential part of creating a long-lasting partnership. Being upfront about initial investment costs, minimum net worth requirements, and what territories are open in their area and other start-up aspects not only provides franchisees with important operating information, but also provides you with the opportunity to show investors that your company values honesty and communication, two important values many franchisees look for in a franchisor.

What’s Your Long Term Plan for Franchisees?

Success often doesn’t happen overnight and successfully growing a business takes a well thought out long term strategy. Franchisees are looking for a franchisor who is committed to ensuring their business is able to thrive and that they have the resources and support to help them grow.
