The Franchise King

Hi Laura, Sorry about the delay getting back to you..had some typepad tech problems this morning..I am not sure what your advisor means, but getting into a biz of your own requires a long-term view of personal income. If you expect to make money right out of the gate, don't do it. Get a job. But..if you can take some risk now, in order to gain some possible equity in abiz of your own, make sure that the biz is the right one for you. You can call me at 216-831-2610, or in The US 1-800-460-8299 to discuss.
Good luck!
Joel Libava

I am at the brink of obtaining a pet service franchise and I am worried about the economy. I formerly was a graphic artist, but before that I managed a large boarding stable (100 horses.) Never did we lose a boarder because they couldn't afford their board, but now when it is a hefty sum of my money I am worried about a recession.
I know I want to do this job, dog training, but am worried about my return on investment. A financial advisor told me that not only should I make a wage, but that I should see profit, that even if I didn't buy a franchise I would be making a wage and my money would be sitting relatively untouched and making me money. Is that the correct way to look at it?
