6. You receive an inquiry from a
potentially lucrative customer
who is located just outside of
your designated territory, but
who you could easily service.
What do you tell that customer?

another [competing] franchisee
because your contract forbids
you from servicing their
location

immediately available to service
their needs and you would be
happy to assist them
7. Your
business has been steadily
growing and your revenue stream
continues to increase. What do
you want to do?

making the compulsory monthly
royalty payments to corporate,

with, where membership is

remain competitive you will need
to offer your customer base a choice of several

Nothing. Your franchise

because that’s what is best
for corporate

option that makes smart business
sense, provided it is within the
limits of the law in your state

generous offer from an
