I have heard random stories of the problems that franchisees can face when the franchise does what is in its best interest and not in the best interest of the franchisee. It's probably best to interview several people who own a particular franchise to find out how the system works.

Very good article. Like you wrote, its all in the franchise agreement. Read before you sign.

I'm looking forward to Part II.
