RE: The Pleasure Of Corporate Take Overs
It's normal that a franchise store can't set their own prices and discount deals, you're part of a company that has stores in all of the country, it would be weird if like different mac donalds have different prices.
If you want to make your own deals and prices, just start your own store. Running a franchise is just an easy way to get some good experience in having a store, and without the risk of losing everything you have.
If it isnt a risk of losing everything you have, why is my old boss walking away from the deal without even getting his original deposit back out? Also I am well aware of what is "NORMAL" What I am questioning here is what is right. Very different creatures, I dont know if you ever noticed that. Please consider for a moment that slavery was once legal....
It depends on the country then I guess, Here in Holland I know there are good rules for working as a franchise manager, u even have contracts where u get paid a monthly salary with added bonuses of income generated with the store. Sure u can lose stuff if you invest your own money in the store, but that's not needed if u run a franchise store. Your still working for a company after all.
Sorry I read this after and realised it could have come across offensive. Here in Canada when you purchase a franchise you can lose money, it is also possible to be the manager of a franchise without owning it. The first case is what my previous boss was dealing with.
Aah, like that. Thank you for the clarification. I really like discussing these matters as they really interested me, I appreciate it that you share this knowledge with me.
I guess i´m really lucky with the Dutch laws for franchise management.
