Ever wonder why some franchise locations crush it while others struggle from day one? In this no-nonsense episode, real estate veteran Kyle pulls back the curtain on the questions potential franchisees NEED to ask but often don't. Kyle shares the real talk on what makes or breaks franchise real estate support. Whether you're eyeing your first franchise or adding to your portfolio, this episode could save you from a six-figure mistake.
Key Conversations:
• Why some franchisors' "hands-off" approach to real estate could be a major red flag
• The truth about territory protection (and why the old "mile radius" model is dying)
• How modern franchisors are using AI to slash site selection timelines
• The "Amazon Era" problem: When old-school real estate meets new-school expectations
• Real stories of franchisee territory conflicts and how to avoid them
💡 Actionable Takeaways:
- The crucial documents every serious franchisor should provide (and what to do if they don't)
- How to spot the difference between good and bad real estate support systems
- Timeline realities: What "6 months to open" really means in today's market
- Escape routes: What to negotiate when you can't find a site
🔥 Notable Quote:
"You do not want to be feeling like you're out there on your own. Something that's available today is not going to be available tomorrow. If you have to wait on somebody from the franchisor to get back to you... it's not going to cut it."
