Demystifying Franchise Ownership
#5 - Decoding the Franchise Disclosure Document Part 1
The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) is a critical document for prospective franchisees, providing a detailed overview of what to expect when investing in a franchise. It covers everything from the company's background and financial performance to fees, obligations, and even potential risks.
Take a listen to this podcast where I interview Laura Liss, a franchise legal expert who has helped her clients navigate the complexities and nuances of franchising. In this episode, she breaks down Items 1 through 7 of the Franchise Disclosure Document.
It's a long episode but a must listen if you are considering franchise ownership. Laura generously shares her vast knowledge, unpacking the complexities of the FDD.
