if your looking for a good franchise go buy a subway shop. They are raking in heaps of cash ^_^

Franchisors use all sorts of scams. They typically target nieve middle income earners with lines like 'be your own boss' or 'chose your own working hours'. etc. Then reel them into an agreement who favors the franchisor. if they dont get what they want out of you they'll threatern to terminate the agreement.

@Victorian105 Bakers Delight anyone?

[Victorian105]

And theres more;  Bakers delight (especially) allphones, bank of queensland,lenards chicken, pix print, sure slim, pizza haven and probably more we dont know about. Theres loads more horror stores out there. The ACCC and the government will never act franchises are too important to the aussie econamy as they see it

In the USA, Midas is well-known for robbing their customers and conducting fraudulent business. For many, many years. Terrible decision for a franchise anywhere. My apologies.

Why bother buying a franchise? You are better off just going out on your own. If you need extra support just get a business coach.

@kopp1981 benifits to a franchise are name brand,connections to help with sourcing stock look at maccas where i live we have 5 maccas owned by the same guy now i don't think with his own food joint he would of done aswell because people go to what they know.

This is sad! But then again, are the boys at the ACCC doing anything? I pressume they are investigating something!
