Post here and tell us about yourself and your business. It is okay if you are just in the idea stage. We have people on the platform who can mentor you.

I've launched 8 businesses over the last 21 years in hospitality, logistics, residential/commercial real estate, and business consulting.

Has anyone here bought into a franchise?
I’m exploring franchising as one of several ETA pathways and would love to learn from those who’ve actually gone through it. If you’ve purchased a franchise—recently or years ago—I’d appreciate hearing about your experience: - How did you approach the search and evaluation process? - What surprised you (good or bad) once you dug into the FDD? - How you structured funding or leveraged veteran programs? - What you wish you had known before signing? - Whether the franchisor support matched the pitch? - How the economics played out vs. expectations? I’m not looking for a sales pitch - just real-world perspective from fellow veterans who’ve walked this path. Your insights will help me make a more informed decision as I evaluate whether franchising aligns with my long-term operator and portfolio goals. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share.
