Kenny’s Top Tips:

  • Franchises can be a good semi-absentee option – if you don’t want to have to show up to work at your franchise every day, make sure you’re in an industry that allows you to be an absentee owner. And be sure to invest in great management!

  • Do your research before choosing a franchise – don’t just invest in a franchise that popped up in your neighborhood and seems to be doing well. You need to make sure there’s room for you in the market, that the business model works, and that it’s a right fit for your financial goals.

  • You might be able to run a franchise with 1-2 employees – some business models like The Clothes Bin are simple and streamlined enough that they can balance nicely with your 9-5 job. But be quick - these opportunities won’t last long!
