Franchising : Opportunities

A First Class Retail Opportunity through Franchising

It isn’t difficult to figure out that franchising is big business. Just take a walk around any mall or look down any street in a business district.

Recent research conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers for the International Franchise Association’s Educational Foundation reveals that franchised businesses are providing direct career opportunities for more than 9 million Americans and the 760,000-plus franchised businesses are responsible for more than $1.5 trillion in retail sales as reported by Chain Store Age Magazine.

Analysts estimate that a franchise outlet opens every eight minutes within the United States. So it’s not surprising that franchising has been called the most popular method for building businesses in America and it is predicted that franchising will be the leading method of doing business in this century.

It is abundantly clear that franchising is a growth industry creating a myriad of new career opportunities. However, you may be asking yourself what this has to do with you? Well, maybe general economic conditions, mergers or acquisitions or other financial conditions have you taking stock of your career and considering other options. Or maybe, you are looking to diversify your investment portfolio and have a more hands on relationship with the returns you anticipate. Or maybe it’s just time for a new career or a second career. Whatever the reason, there is no better opportunity to be your own boss and control your life than owning and operating an upscale retail store like Paper Affair.

We at Paper Affair can offer you the opportunity to get into business for yourself, but not, as they say, “by yourself.” As a franchisee, you will be investing your assets in a business and sharing a brand, and its operational format of success. We have a proven business model that will increase your chances of success and we are there to support your everyday challenges.
