Will I be guaranteed an exclusive territory for the duration of the franchise term, or can the franchisor sell additional franchises in the territory? How profitable have other franchises in the area been? What do other franchisees think of the franchisor? How long has the franchisor been in business? How profitable is the franchisor? What services does the franchisor provide? Will the franchisor help me with marketing, merchandising, and site selection? Are the benefits provided by the franchisor worth the loss of independence and the cost of purchasing the franchise? What happens if I want to cancel the franchise agreement? Is becoming a franchisee of this business a good opportunity? Why or why not?
