Being your own boss and owning a business has long been considered the American Dream. It’s definitely not for everyone, but if you have that entrepreneurial fire in your bones, you’re not going to be satisfied working for someone else. Owning a franchise business is an alternative to starting a business from scratch, eliminating a lot of the initial groundwork and getting you on the road to profitability much quicker.
