Section 1 — Systems & Documentation
A franchisee is a stranger who will run your brand without you in the building. Everything they need to operate at your standard must be written down, organized, and teachable.
Section 1 Score: 0 / 20
Section 2 — Unit Economics
A franchisee is investing their savings and signing a 10-year lease based on your numbers. Those numbers must be real, reproducible, and honest.
Section 2 Score: 0 / 20
Section 3 — Brand Proof & Differentiation
Someone is paying a franchise fee and royalties for the right to use your brand. There has to be something worth buying.
Section 3 Score: 0 / 20
Section 4 — Legal & Structural Readiness
Franchising is a regulated business. The legal and structural foundation must exist before you sell a single franchise.
Section 4 Score: 0 / 14
Section 5 — Franchisor Readiness
Running a franchise system is a fundamentally different job than running restaurants. Many great operators make poor franchisors.
Section 5 Score: 0 / 12
