Most people who want to own a business start with the wrong question. They ask what business to start, when the first question is which path fits them: buy an existing business, build one from scratch, or buy a franchise.

Every path has a real cost. Buying an existing business gets you cash flow on day one plus whatever problems the seller did not mention. Starting from scratch gives you total control and the longest, most expensive learning curve. A franchise hands you a proven playbook, a set of rules you have to follow, and fees you keep paying.

In this session he walks through all three honestly, then goes deeper on franchising: how much wider the field is than the food brands everyone pictures, what it costs to get in, how people fund it, and what the search actually looks like from the first conversation to signing.

Bring your questions. Live Q&A is built into the hour.

Key takeaways

Attendees will leave knowing:

• Which of the three paths fits their money, their timeline, and their tolerance for risk
• What franchising actually is, and how far the field goes past the food brands most people picture, into trades, senior care, pets, fitness, and business services
• What it costs to get into a franchise and the common ways people fund one, including using retirement savings without an early withdrawal penalty
• What you give up inside a franchise, what stays yours, and why there is no such thing as a turn-key business
