What Is a Franchise?

A franchise is a business system in which one business (usually a bigger and established one) gives another business (usually a smaller one) the rights to sell its products and to operate under its brand name.
The bigger company that gives out its products to be sold and its trademarks to be used is referred to as the franchiser, whereas the smaller company is called a franchisee. In addition to selling the products of the franchiser, the franchisee usually also has to pay the franchiser some regular (license) fee for using the franchiser's brand. The franchisee usually has to operate under guidelines given by the franchiser, which a franchiser gives to all franchisees working under it to ensure consistency among the franchises and to protect the brand name.

Advantages

Franchising gives all the actors involved in it--the franchisers, the franchisees and their customers--some advantages. The franchisers get the opportunity to market their products in new markets where it would have cost them considerable amounts of money and effort to set up their own self-managed branches, as well as the opportunity to earn some money from licenses. The franchisees, on the other hand, get the opportunity to benefit from the already-established brand name and goodwill of the franchiser--which is a considerable advantage considering that these are things that are very hard for a new business to build from scratch. From the franchiser guidelines, which a franchisee is expected to operate under, the franchisee also gets to benefit from tried and proven business systems that might have taken the franchiser years to develop and which could take the franchisee a considerable period of time to build up on its own. The customers, on the other hand, have services and goods brought nearer to them.
Franchising is not for everyone, as there are businesses in which franchising works and those in which it is usually a very hard bet. Businesses that can be easily duplicated are among those for which franchising works best, as are those that appeal across geographical regions.
