Owning a business has its challenges and rewards. When comparing opening a business on your own or joining a franchise brand, it’s easy to see the benefits of owning a franchise business.

While there are pros and cons to owning a franchise business, the odds of success are most certainly in your favor compared to starting a business from scratch. Here, we give you a realistic perspective on the benefits of being a franchise owner. We’ll also look at how choosing to become a part of the Murphy franchise group could be the answer to your dreams.

Owning a Franchise Business is Often a Less Costly Startup Option

It takes a lot of money to get a new business off the ground. The expenses pile up fast. Taking a business from “square one” to up-and-running means investing a lot of money into the venture all at once. Common startup expenses can include:

• Renting office space
• Assembling equipment and supplies
• Obtaining all the necessary business licenses
• Marketing and advertising costs
• Hiring employees

On the other hand, owning a franchise business gives you a jump-start to getting owning a business. The franchisor’s team can help you with funding, navigating common legal concerns, and more.

The franchisor may also give you access to other essentials that you may have not even considered. For instance, you may have access to specially developed computer applications for managing accounting or daily operations. The franchise company may also have marketing and advertising campaigns in place to help you gain new clients or track your sales activities. Owning a franchise business could save you a lot of money in both the short and long term.

Owning a Franchise Business Generally Comes with Training

Maybe you have an interest in starting a business in an industry with which you have no actual experience. After mulling over the idea, you either give up on your dream or decide to wait to pursue your passion until after you have hands-on expertise.
