Bond’s Hottest New Franchises 2010

Most prospective franchisees want to know which franchise systems offer not only a sound investment, but also potential for growth. But adding additional units to an established, nationally-expanded system can be difficult. Franchise guru Robert Bond addresses this dilemma in Bond's Hottest New Franchises. In it, he identifies 100 smaller franchises that present sound growth opportunities for potential investors. By focusing on companies with fewer than 50 operating units, investors are able to grow within the system. The selections are based on a number of factors, including historical performance, competitive advantage, franchisee satisfaction, and financial stability. Listed are growth opportunities in food, service, and retail segments, with direct comparability between franchise listings. Bond’s rigorous, in-depth analysis of each franchise system, along with his valuable insight into the evaluation and negotiation processes, makes this an essential reference for any potential investor.
