Yet every day, more and more of these aspiring entrepreneurs are discovering that their greatest challenge is not choosing the right concept, but rather gaining access to inexpensive capital needed to complete their purchase. To meet this challenge, a growing number of people are getting into the franchise business by investing in their own franchise—many of them using investment capital they didn’t know they had.
