Franchising Tips and Facts

As a franchisee, you may want to know... can I own more than one Culligan franchise? Franchisors often sell area or master franchises within a certain specified territory. These are of course costly. If you own a single Culligan franchise and are successful, then if there is an opportunity to develop in another and the territory is available, then the franchisor will usually be pleased to sell you another franchise for the new location.

Ultimately the success of owning a Culligan Franchise can be determined by such factors as your franchise territory, site location, and your individual efforts and commitment to following the system. While you will be your own boss, when owning a Culligan franchise you will not be "on your own". The franchisor will have also committed to fulfill their promises to you as stated in the franchise agreement.

How much does a Culligan Franchise cost? Generally the costs associated with buying a franchise can vary considerable, depending on some of the following factors. Some costs that can affect the bottom line are, real estate, inventory, training, marketing, franchise fees, and development costs. The Culligan UFOC should outline these costs, and give you detailed information on how much it will cost you.

Sometimes, franchises fail because the franchise buyers do not adequately research franchise opportunities prior to purchase. If you are interested in a Culligan Franchise Opportunity, then you should do your homework. Try to match your personal attributes and interests to activities associated with the business opportunity you are interested in. If your personality and interests, don't match, you may want to consider a different franchise.

According to the Small Business Administration, less than 5% of all franchise units fail each year. This is compared to 30 to 35 percent of small businesses which fail within the first year of operation. However, owning a Culligan franchise is not a guaranteed recipe for success. You will still have to comit yourself, your time, and perhaps even make some personal sacrifices in order to succeed.
