Did you know that today, one-third (32%) of all franchises are owned by women. For the new wave of female babyboomers that is retiring in the coming year a big concern that creates anxiety is the financial future of their next chapter. In addition, one of the biggest complaints of retired seniors is that they want activities to help them stay energetic and mentally alert. In today’s podcast Maria is talking with Jim McEleney who shares his experience of owning a franchise and explains in great detail why this could be a match made in heaven for your Next Chapter. Are you still wanting income but also desiring flexibility? Pursuing business ownership through the franchise model has been an attractive way to remain in the game for those who are looking to establish their own work/life balance. In this talk, we'll explore the current trends in the world of franchise business ownership that are making this an attractive, lower risk option. Listen to Maria and Jim when they dive deep into exploring the benefits of buying a franchise as a retiree. It is not only a second career but also an investment for you and a lasting legacy that you can hand down to your family. Another great advantage of operating a franchise is that you continue to use your mind and likely your body as well. It’s a great way to stay healthy as you age. This episode would not be valuable if we didn’t discuss some of the risks and time requirements of operating this kind of business too.
