So you’ve made the decision to attend The Franchise Exhibition in Dublin…what’s in store for you? Well, it’s a great way of gaining direct personal access to a whole bunch of franchisors packed in under one roof and on their stands, they’ll be a captive audience for your questions.
As soon as you arrive you’ll be swept into a hall humming with conversation and bristling with colourful stands promoting franchises in all manner of industries, all sending out hard-to-resist marketing messages about be-your-own-boss business opportunities.
Take a Reality Check
Right, now’s the time for a reality check. You need to keep you head clear and your chequebook in a deep pocket. You’re not here to sign up and hand over money. You’re here to survey what’s on offer, assess what’s relevant to your needs and then go home to weigh it all up.
You’ll be going home with a couple of carrier bags full of brochures that you can study at leisure in order to draw up a shortlist of franchises that can then be researched - ideally by professional advisers with franchising experience.
