For those who want to get their foot in the entrepreneurial door and still keep their day job, starting a part-time business is a great solution. But what if you don't have the creativity or resources to launch a startup? Purchasing a franchise eliminates the need to come up with an original idea, but doesn't franchise ownership require a full-time commitment and a lot of money? Not always.
Many people who want an easy, flexible way to run their own business are turning to companies that offer part-time franchise opportunities. Whether they're stay-at-home parents or people who want to work their way toward full-time entrepreneurship, these individuals are attracted to the lower startup costs and time commitment involved in operating a franchise on a part-time basis.
