Is this okay ? OR anyone have their bonus % in the offer

Advantages of franchising!
- There is no substitute for an effective, proven business model and operating system with a history of success
- A complete package that includes practically everything you'll need to get your business off the ground
- Ongoing assistance with any concerns or challenges

If you want to be in business for yourself, but not by yourself, take advantage of the experience and support that a franchise system can give to you to launch your business quickly and effectively.

Which do you prefer and why:
An emerging brand where you work closely with the founder OR A proven brand with less flexibility where you “ just follow the system”?
