What are advantages of a franchise system for a franchisor? / 3
•
Some of the advantages of a franchise system for a franchisor are a chance for the
company’s market reputation, effective quality control (franchisor is motivated to
achieve success). Also, this system is a source of income for the franchisor, through
payment of franchise fees, royalty…
Recap: Disadvantages of franchise
system
• Disadvantages of a franchise system for FRANCHISEE (tj. onoga koji
KUPUJE licencu):
• Franchisee needs to pay an initial sum of money (franchise fee or front
and fee) to the franchisor for the services provided.
• Buying and running a franchise requires hard-work. Some conflicts
between franchisor and franchisee may appear.
• The franchisee may become too dependent on franchisors
• Disadvantages of a franchise system for FRANCHISOR (tj. onaj koji
PRODAJE licencu):
• A lack of control over franchisees (nemogucnost da kontrolisu one koji su
licencu kupili).
• By allowing other businesses to use their name,franchisors may lose
reputation (gubitak reputacije)
• This is not as quick a method of growth as mergers or acquisitions (ovo
nije tako uspešan metod rasta poslovanja kao mergers ili acquisitions).
