Summary: Ok for an overview, but lacked real detail

Comment: I expected more. Will be looking at other books on the market, but have not yet, so cannot comment on how it compares to others. I was just really looking for less general info (I know what a franchise is) and more specific info to evaluate them.

Summary: Considering Franchising - This is a must read !!!

Comment: This is an excellent book and a must read for anyone considering going into franchising. This book helped me eliminate many concepts which I initially thought were good. But after reading this book, I learned what great franchise companies are all about. I finally bought into one and am very happy.

Summary: Waste of Money -- Suspicious of Other Reviews

Comment: I have read four or five books on purchasing a franchise and this is clearly the worst. The books from Nolo are the best and the Better Business Bureau are second. This book is mostly hype about how great the franchise experience can be with pep talks and nonsense about how you are good enough to be in the 1 percent of successful franchise buyers. The information is neither objective nor balanced. I encourage people to always look at who the writers are to see if the source can be trusted. In this case it is consultants who make their money training people who sell franchises, helping people franchise their existing business and selling coaching services to existing franchisees. They have no vested interest in discouraging you from buying a franchise. Spend your money on a different book. I am suspicious of the other rave reviews, it looks like a marketing campaign to me. It is hard for me to believe real people found value in this book.

The truth you need to know before you buy a franchise

This straight-shooting franchise guide goes beyond the “how-to” to teach you what to expect when starting a franchise. Real-life stories from the trenches illustrate to you how to cope with the difficulties a franchise presents. Smart Franchising reveals the personality types most likely to succeed at franchising and warns you about the character traits that may increase the risk of failure. Plus, it offers an in-depth look at what happens during the research and investigation of a franchise, something glossed over in most franchise books.
